People are doomed to spend and ETERNITY of Hell, because, for a mere (approx.) 85 years, they couldn't believe that God exists. And why should people believe God exists if He doesn't provide us with any SOLID evidence for His existence?! Apparantly, He only shows Himself to us, AFTER we've died, and there's no longer anything we can do about it! For now, all we have is a book "inspired by God", but written by MAN. Any man could have claimed to be "inspired by God", if they had some deep stuff to say and believed it was from God (whether or not a god exists).
How could God send people to Hell for ETERNITY, for not believing He's real when He wont show us that He's real?! "He" says we know He's real because we're alive, and there is much beauty in the world. This is unbelievable!
Why wont God provide any REAL evidence for His existence?!????

"Will you please cite your source? Can you give chapter and verse in His word?
No you can't, because God never said that..."
Yes I can, because "God" DID say that!
"For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities - His eternal power and divine nature - have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse"
God (invisible) has been seen through what has been made (everything).
Hence, the "proof" that God exists, is that everything exists!

Sorry, I forgot the chapter and verse. That was from Romans Chapter 1, verse 20

The egg came first. It's impossible for a chicken to just appear. Where did the egg come from before it was a chicken? The egg came from whatever the chicken evolved from. Slowly but surely inside every egg before the actual chicken, was a creature closer and closer to becoming the chicken. And I know you're thinking, but chickens only lay chicken eggs, and apple seeds only produce apples. But evolution isn't something that happens over night. It happens over millions of years, and the change is so gradual it's not noticable within even an entire century.

God gave us a path to salvation paid for with the blood of his son and a map (the Bible). If you choose to deny God's love then it is your choice. God is holy and our sins must be paid for and he wants a relationship with us not hatred, denial etc. Self sacrifice is easy compared to that of sacrificing your son for those that don't deserve it... just think about that!

Okay, take a deep breath...now go outside and look up....now look around you....look down at your body...consider all this, then ask yourself....was all this created by random chance? Or do you think an intelligent creator made this?
The arguments generally adduced by theologians in proof of God's existence are:
There must be a First Cause of all things, for every effect must have a cause.
We see everywhere the operations of an intelligent Cause in nature.
And because man cannot create life...no matter how hard they try without using something that God made and is already available to them...and because they can't answer the simplest question that any Christian knows the answer to.....what came first, the chicken or the egg?
You want the answer..
DAY 5
And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. Gen 1:20-23

Yes I can believe it. And we're all deserving of Hell and none of us would be able to go to heaven if not for God's grace. Is it too much to ask to simply believe for 85 years and spare the pain of Hell for eternity?
And God has shown himself to us in the form of Jesus. And don't worry, he'll come a second time, although none may know the hour of his coming.
You've heard of Christianity, so God has done his job of giving you a chance. It's your job to either accept what he did for you or go to Hell just because you didn't want to have anything to do with him.

According to you, "He" says we know He's real because we're alive, and there is much beauty in the world.
Will you please cite your source? Can you give chapter and verse in His word?
No you can't, because God never said that. This is what the Bible has to say about believing that God exists:
Hebrews 11:6 "... without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
God has no need to prove His existence to us. Your belief or lack of it has no bearing on whether He is or not.

The bible is a very hate filled book. I don't understand how anyone could ever believe its fact when it quite clearly isn't. God doesn't exist.

Which is why huamnity has worshiped thousands of gods, in thousands of different religions, and no one can agree on anything.
It is bs.
