Athiests: Do you think that it is amazing there are millions of people who believe in a book, written by uneducated people who does not know how to write.
You can tell by the sentences in the bible, these people were totally uneducated. Athiests if you can take the time to read some of the bible you would laugh so hard it is crazy. I don't want to start on which verses are ludicrous and stupid. These people were really uneducated. These uneducated, ignorant people write the same redundant sentences. It is like these people wrote the bible to make some money.
I wonder who came up with the idea to write the Holy bible.
One stupid book got people in a scared frenzy, because they think some rebel god is going to send these people for eternity.
Are people that gullible that they think they are going to hell after they die.
Just by these uneducated morons talking about hell you know that this book is a fiction.

Christians. I never going to find out if there a heaven or hell and you won't either, because both of us will be dead. DEAD. No one can come back from the dead. NO ONE. Not even you.

Lol.
You are incorrect, humans do NOT HAVE to submit to a God. Proof: you don't :P. Also some people believe in different gods.... which are very different.
"uneducated people who DOES no know how to write."
Lol this just SOUNDS so horrible. Your sentance was even originaly writen in English :) I bet the Bible you've read has been translated atleast 3 times before being translated into English. That means it's a translation of a translation of a translation of a translation lol. A lot of things will get screwed over in there :P Also your statement: "Why do humans HAVE to SUBMIT to some crazy, sadistic MADE UP God" is more horrible than anything in the Bible. 1. Humans do NOT need to, making it impossible to answer your question (because it says they MUST need to). 2. You choice of words is also horrible. If you submit to something you do what it says. If it is made up, then it is non-existant. How can you do what something that doesn't exist says? You would do nothing, and they obviously DO do something.
The writers of the Bible weren't even English... Also you should know that it is a COLLECTION of bookS. These books were put together by the Romans many years AFTER they have been writen. Emperor Constintine is sometimes credited with coming up with the Bible....
Again a COLLECTION of bookS, not a book.
"One stupid book got people in a scared frenzy, because they think some rebel god is going to send these people for eternity."
Send them where for eternity? Again, this sentance is much worse than any sentance from the Bible.
"These uneducated, ignorant people write the same redundant sentences"
Apparently you haven't reached high school yet.... or atleast not high school level English class. Yes, the REPEAT things. It is a LITERARY DEVICE. ALL of the BEST writers use it. It's called repitition, or reiteration. It is so you know what the POINT is. If I tell you that in order for you to have good posture, you must tuck your cocys in, would you remember that when standing in line at Wal-mart the next day? Probably not. But if I told you there to tuck it in, than you will. It is to get a meaning into your thick skull. So apparently you are not very educated in literature.
And then there are MANY MANY other religions. Pfft. Please go learn about other religions before saying they're all wrong. That is like me saying there is only 1 ocean (because i've only been to 1). But if i actualy studyed/looked at a map, i'd know there are more than 1 ocean.... And just like oceans differ from oceans (in multitudes of ways including marine life, temperature, ect.) so to do religions. Their views on God/gods/godesses are different, as well as their philosophy of life.

Good question, sometimes ignorance is bliss. There's a scientific reason for people having a distorted worldview.
Consider the Jesus freaks, evangelicals and other deeply religious folks, all have reverted to that primitive limbic systems of our brains, the place where our deepest emotions reside. The 'born-again' Christian phenomena has a scientific basis. When people are in deep despair, near death, nearly starved, or other highly emotional states, the 'religious experience' is triggered.
Hormones, dopamine receptors and other chemical reactions take place...all good for the body. They help to fight diseases, etc. It was a survival mechanism our bodies have devloped since the days of our primitive ancestors.
Those that know the truth however, ie Objective Reality, are not allowing themselves the body's defensive mechanizm that has evolved over time. The closest they (we) can come is to believe in the 'power of positive thinking' which is the closest to religion (use of the limbic system of our brains) that we atheists can get.
I've chosen Objective Reality, even knowing that a delusional worldview could be beneficial to my health and body....go figure.

Why do ignorant people who comprehend not something approximately evolution, proceed to ask rhetorical inquiries to illustrate their lack of expertise? Evolutionary concept states that people proportion an person-friendly ancestor with apes, not that people got here from apes. There does come a factor the place you are able to hint back evolution, to the origins of existence, which technological expertise has been waiting to describe. in case you have not examine the literature then you certainly probable are unaware of this. whilst conversing of the formation of the universe as all of us comprehend it, there does come a factor the place cutting-edge technological expertise has to declare 'i don't understand'. this does not propose we would desire to be like prehistoric guy and placed some supernatural deity because of the fact the reason for what we don't totally comprehend. strengthen up and have the adulthood and honesty to declare 'i don't understand'. Claiming that some mythical supernatural deity brought about what you won't be able to clarify is ignorant and delusional.

You're banging your literary head against the wall.
Because none of us was born with an intrinsic knowledge of a vast amount of information about the origins of life and the universe, and because we can come up with questions that we cannot answer---
A long time ago, somebody noticed that a "imaginative fictional" answer to some of those questions gave them power in their tribe; a power they otherwise would not have had unless they convinced someone they were right.
The Old Testament is a collection of stories by the Hebrew people that were originally told word-of-mouth from one generation to another, and these stories over time, started being believed as true accounts of history, when in fact, they were myths and legends designed to teach proper human behavior, and give a sense of purpose to people's lives. Soon, the idea of a "real" God became "real" in people's minds, to the point where everyone forgot that they were originally made up camp-fire stories to introduce law and order to a huge number of people who needed to be controlled in order to prevent them from harming other people.
Murder, stealing, infidelity, uncontrolled sexual activity...these were serious problems back then to whole tribes of people, as they are now. So "laws" were given a "devine" origin to "fear" people into obeyance. Some people like me, don't need to be "feared" into obeyance. I see the "human" created wisdom of behaving myself, and the "pay it forward" Karma (so to speak) of liking, loving, and helping other people, since I myself need those things from time to time from other people.
"Religion" is the "behavioral manual" for the masses.
That's why raising children right is so important. Our default state is "animalistically" brutal, selfish, and of a "survive at any cost" nature. Civilization and society is our (so far) only way to exist with one another without total anarchy and "lawlessness."
Unfortunately, people who aren't raised right need a "fear of God" to make them behave.
And here we are...and here we will stay for a long time to come. But maybe one day...

If you don't believe in the existence of God, why do you seem to get so upset by Him and the things He said in the Bible?? If you are so certain that there is nothing after death, why do you waste time trying to convince those who believe differently?
Christians believe there is life after death and we share that with others so they won't miss out. But if you really believe that there is no God or heaven or hell, why waste your time trying to convince Christians they are wrong? Maybe you aren't so sure of what you believe after all. What if Christians aren't wrong? What if.......?
