You seem to disagree with my statement that ONLY God knows the hearts of, not only His followers, but people of all faiths and Atheists alike. Do you disagree with this?

Notadummyrat: Whose belief have I disagreed with, other than bigotous views? (not sure if that's really a word but you get the idea)

I don't disagree. They seem to be cranky today. I'm a christian and I give honest answers but when it doesn't fit into their narrow doctrinal view then you get blasted or you get a thumbs down. I find it irritating like bad gas or hemorhoids.
Instead of giving an honest answer and actually think about an answer they just quickly spout off whatever dogma they were taught even if it doesn't really apply to the question at hand.
Bah hum bug! :p
..see what I mean about being cranky, now I'm cranky! ;-)

God knows everything, including that which is within our hearts. 1 John 3:20; John 2:24; Jeremiah 17:10; Psalm 44:21.
As for crabbiness, it appears to cut across philosophical and religious lines. I frequently receive thumbs down ratings for what I can only surmise is because someone disagrees with my beliefs and not because I stated my position in an offensive manner or failed to support it. This is unfortunate and militates against open debate.

I agree that God knows and looks on the heart..So..where were you going with this...this seems like a non question..you want find a Christians who will disagree or give you a thumbs down on that...
I don't know you BTW...I think this is the first time I have answered a question of yours.....if you are trying to say,,,that people of other faiths and atheists,,,go to Heaven without accepting the blood of Jesus as a sacrifice for their sins,,,then we have a problem....Jesus is the ony Way.....

I agree with the fact that only God knows a man's heart, regardless of who or what they are. However, if a man tells you they believe there is no God then isn't he telling you what is in his heart? I am not judging that man when I assume he will end up in hell, I am trusting his statement. Just like an atheist, when I say I will be going to heaven, assumes that I won't be going anywhere when I die because death will be the end of my existence.

I agree 100% I tell people on Y/A that God is the only one who knows what God thinks. God is the only one who knows what is in anyones heart. God is the only one that knows what we think. God is the only one who can judge anyone as that is what he says in the bible. Some Christians who try to tell the rest of us what god wants must have a direct line to heavan, as for the rest of us we know that only he knows. What religion a person pratices does not matter (even santa has different names in other countries) God knows if they are a beleiver.

It seems that this imaginary "god" has never once uttered a word... all the cristians do the talking on behalf of her !
I disagree with your statement. This "God" you talk about, knows nothing, "god" is a concept that you have created in your mind.
religious bi-polar psychosis could be a possible cause of this

No, I TOTALLY agree with your statement. I don't know if you agree with me that we will ALL 'go to Heaven' in the end (some may do some time in Purgatory/Hell to learn lessons not learned here, though) but as far as your statement goes, I agree COMPLETELY. Okay, I am a Christian (Catholic) but I'm not 'crabby' and I am also not a 'perpetual thumbs-downer' but I do think that you also need some 'agreements' to go with those who will want to 'argue' with you. Your statement is THEOLOGICALLY very sound, too, by the way ...

Hey I am a Christian and have been known to be crabby at times but...
God knows the hearts of everyone - that is omniscience.
He is the Creator, and also, how would anyone ever find him if he didn't know the hearts of those who don't yet?

Hard to agree or disagree with your statement as it would require proof of God's existence.
At the moment, there is more hard evidence for the existence of, say, bigfoot or the loch ness monster than any type of supreme being.

First off, I am not crabby but actually quite content. But my answer would be I agree with your statement. I would never presume to know what God is thinking.
