At birth free will does not exist and everyone is born without beliefs.?

Question

Ideas are not inscribed in our DNA and are learned later in life. That means God was invented by the human mind and passed down ever since infancy as family tradition or influenced by society. No human being on this planet is born with beliefs in God or anything else. This is why people over several generations have been following different Gods all over the world. So before you give me the free will speech notice that people are not born with it. If you need conclusive evidence and this does not provide enough evidence for you, then just look at our reproductive cells we need for biological reproduction and ask your self this. Does sperm and egg believe in God?

I'm not bashing religion, I'm telling the truth.

I am not preaching against myself, Religion did come from man, thats what im saying, their just not born with it.

Go ahead and poop in your panties. Clearly you do not understand the difference between being born with something and learning it.

crying is not an idea, its physically doing something...

to Pualcyp, nope

so if we are all born with sin, then that means babies who die at an early age go to hell. Hypothetically speaking.

Answer 1

Good point. Also, if people think their religion is correct, think about this...

If you were born into another family, or part of the world, that believed in another religion, would you still follow the "correct" one you believe now?

Answer 2

We are all born sinful. We are all born in Sin. We are all born with the guilt of sin. We are all born an enmity to God.

Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me. .. psalm 51:5

Psalms 58:3 The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.

We are not born being children of God.

In other words, it is not the natural children who are God's children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham's offspring. Romans 9:8

And we do not have free will.

Romans 3:10-18 1 Corinthians 2:14...

Our inherited sin gave is the sinful nature killing our spirit, and we can only make decisions based on the sinful nature (flesh)

"The carnal mind is enmity against God"—Romans 8:7.

For if, when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! Romans 5:10

Answer 3

At conception, the sin nature exists. Self-ish-ness, disobedience and rebellion. All babies are born with the this nature. Self-ish-ness is the first to appear just as soon as a child is physically and mentally able to express their wants and needs. If you have children, haven't you noticed, around 2 years old, that "No" is their favorite word when they become physically capable of rebellion?

We are born with the knowledge that there is a higher power than us. Have you ever been with someone who is dieing and you had no power to keep it from happening? Have you ever been in an automobile accident and there was no way that you could have kept it from happening during the act? God through Paul, tells us in Romans 10:17, Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ. Knowledge of God comes from hearing the Word.

Proverbs 2:6-10
For the LORD gives wisdom, and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. He holds victory in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless, for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones. Then you will understand what is right and just and fair-- every good path. For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul. (NIV)

Answer 4

well actually is jesus was real he probably said "daddy i am going to grow up and get bolts hammered into my hands and then die then come abck as a zombie and EAT YOU!!!!" lol jk... god was supposed to roam the earth at one time or another... and if jesus was god in flesh ors eomthing like it then it was god that gave us the idea... and the bible does say that there are multiple gods whether the mainstream denies it or not... i cant think of the text that repeats quite a few times in the beggining of the bible, so i will say the one that says something to the effect of "you caanot worship other gods because God is a jealous god".... which basicly means there are otehr gods so maybe they came to people of multi-god religions.... who knows lol

Answer 5

I agree with you totally. Thats why everyone is very diffent in cultures. Because they were raised believing in something rather than it started with them when they were born... thats why many children don't understand Who God really is until they are older and so on.

I hope i understood what you were saying other wise i'm going to feel dumb.

Answer 6

I fail to see where you have "proven" anything. So what if a baby doesn't display free will? How does that disprove God, again? Besides, babies do possess and exercise free will, if you don't believe it then clearly you have never had a baby. I'm not even getting into a "where does life start?" debate with you, your point is so ridiculous at that point it wouldn't do either of us any good.

Answer 7

We are not born believing in anything! So, are you suggesting that nothing therefore exists? That everything in our experience and knowledge is a figment of our imaginations?? And, we are indeed born with free will. That becomes evident very quickly in the life of a young child. However, free will doesn't become fully applicable until we reach the age of moral accountability, for moral decision making is its real purpose.

Answer 8

Have you ever tried to make a baby stop crying without becoming a clown in the process? The baby will go on crying until exhaustion takes the best of him/her or you figure out what the bay wants and stops when you supply it. That’s free will in action…

Answer 9

Well, you're half right. You're right that people aren't born automatically believing in God. But you're wrong to conclude that this means God does not exist. The Bible's explanation works just as well - Sin entered the world through Adam, and from that day on ALL of us are born into it. Our sinful nature keeps us separated from God unless we renounce it.

Answer 10

Fundamental human nature is a product of God and then the fall of Adam/Eve, and this fallen nature varies little between birth and death. The only way raise the level of your character and human is through the grace of God that comes through faith in Jesus. Through Christ, God gives us the Holy Spirit to help us overcome the weaknesses we inherited from fallen Adam.
