Answer 2

Ok then
1. I have logically thought about this for a long time, and there is no chance of humans having any understanding of god. Want me to elaborate?

Each and every culture around the world had their own religion: Europe had Paganism, China had Taoism, South East Asia with Buddhism, Australia with Aboriginal Religion, North and South America with their own religious belief, Afirca with Animistic beliefs, and last but not least, the Middle East with Judeo-Christian-Islamic beliefs. If you study them, they differ from region to region, but are influenced by the areas around them: hence the Greek and Roman gods being quite similar, but the details are different (Jupiter instead of Zues).
The only reason why Christianity and Islam are so popular today is because they spread and converted the world, while the others didn't.
There is no reason why the Middle Easterners where 100% right, while the Africans, Chinese and Europeans are 100% wrong. The only plausible religious conclusion is that every religion is right in their own way, and the one thing they can agree on is that god/gods are the givers of life.
I think God is not a being or a spirit, but God is a term for life. therefore God does not exist, but we are all "God". It's just easier for me to say I'm an atheist than to explain what I think God is.

2. No. I also don't think Satan is a being, but as I was saying, as God means life, Satan means death.

3. When my dad's seeds planted in my mother's egg, the two cells grew together, split into others and eventually formed a feotus from Stem Cells.

4. When I die, the electrical flow from my brain will cease, and my body will decompose. I'm hoping they burn my body before that happens.

Answer 3

1. God doesn't make sense to me. (Specifically, the Christian God.) I'd accept any God if I was shown any (substantial) evidence except the Christian God. All in all, the Bible showed me that if there is a God, we better all pray he's nothing like the one in the Bible.

2. No. Extensively, the idea of Satan is very similar to the idea of God. But with different morals and consequences.

3. I'm going to assume you meant, "we," because I think we all know where we each came from. And I wholeheartedly believe in evolution, much like the rest of the world. MRSA is the product of evolution, and evidence (Homo Habilis, etc) clearly shows evolution happened.
(Just in case, my parents had sex, and I became alive.)

4. Well, before I was born, I wasn't anywhere. Simply, I didn't exist. So after I die, (the key word there being "die") I won't exist anymore. I've considered the idea of a "soul" and that just doesn't make sense to me. If you remove the brain from your body, everything else shuts down. A soul doesn't live on. The brain is all we have, and the brain invented the idea of a soul.

Answer 4

Much as I do not wish to seem repetitive, my answers are much the same as those that appear above.
1: I do not believe in an imaginary entity, a man-made concept.
2: See item 1.
3: There was this big-bang. Lots of time drifted by very slowly. Life forms came into being. These life forms evolved into a wide variety of further lifeforms. Mankind finally appeared and continued to evolve. My parents did the deed. Here I am.
4: My ashes will be sprinkled on a coral sea beach. I will go nowhere. My awareness will be switched off at the time of my death and I will cease to be BUT I will not be forgotten.

I believe in the fact that all religion is childish superstition.

Answer 5

1. Why DO you believe in god? There's no proof, and the stuff thats TAKEN as proof has been shown to be inaccurate and often written to be metaphorical, rather than literal. I don't known if i don't believe in god, exactly, but i don't believe in religion and praying etc. Do you agree that you're parents made you? You respect them and honour them, but you don't get down on your knees and worship them twice a day.

2. No, i do not believe in satan. Evil and good are merely actions people take according to events which have effected them and curcumstances which are not always under their control (including mental disabilities like phsycopaths).

3. I believe the big bang created the unverse, a point of infinate density which exploded, and the effects of gravity, electrostatic forces and nuclear forces eventually caused matter to form and condense into planets and stars. Eventually due to the (scientifically proven) effect of fission, elements such as carbon, oxygen and nitrogen were made, and water and compounds which allowed life to evolve. (for which there is also scientific evidence). Maybe there is a god, who set off the big bang, but i don't believe there's a god who actually inteferes with us and stuff.

4. When i die, if i am buried my body will decompose and form part of the cycle of nutrients etc. My conciousness will probably just be obliterated, as it is simply the electochemical messages between neurons in my brain. If i did believe in a god or religion, i would like reincarnation probably, heaven and hell don't really work for me. Wouldn't it get a bit boring doing the same thing for all of eternity, even if its somehing you enjoy?

Anyway, that's what i think. At least you're trying to understand someone elses view. Good on you, mate.

Answer 6

1. I don't believe in any gods because I think it seems tedious. The lack of physical evidence is another. Saying the bloke exists in everyone or he/she created the sky is emotional overtones.

2. Not only do I not believe in Satan, I don't believe in angels, prophets, souls, miracles, sins, etc.

3. My parents did the deed. I lean towards evolution, but I haven't made my mind up about the "big bang" just yet.

4. I don't believe in an afterlife. I believe after I die, I have ceased to be.

5. I do believe in nature, karma, and social responsibility.

Answer 7

1. Don't believe in the traditional idea of a God...believe in science instead. Scientific evidence shows the evolution of our cosmos.

2. OK seriously it's absurd to think that just because people don't believe in God...they must believe in Satan. GIve me a break! Just because I"m not a religious fundamentalist freak doesn't mean I don't have values.

3. From 4 elements which were found on Earth after the Big Bang, which thanks to a spark of lightning began to form amino acids, then microorganisms, then larger and larger organisms. A simple high school experiment will show you that placing a few amino acids + C + N + O into a beaker adding a spark will result in the formation of small proteins = the building blocks of all organisms.

4. most probably rebirth...the Earth has a great way of recycling all its natural products. It is impossible for energy to disappear. Thus, your bodily energy must be transformed.


I believe in respecting every single living thing equally. I believe in peace. I believe in not imposing my views (religious or other) onto anyone else. I believe any two people of any gender are capable and permitted to fall in love with one another (note - fall in love, not in lust/sex), and should be given the right to validate that commitment. I believe it is hypocritical and morally wrong to judge the actions of anyone other than myself. I believe in love and laughter. I believe people who spend all their time trying to convert others onto their religious team, could probably spend the time in more productive. I believe lots of religious people like to talk a lot instead of practicing what they preach.

I don't worship some 'greater' creator. I believe that intself is pagan and placing Jesus on a pedostal has pagan characteristics.

Answer 8

1 the same reason i do not believe in Santa Claus, there is no proof to back up the illogical and irrational concept of God
2 nope(if i don't believe in God out of those reasons why would i believe in any other mythological being without proof?)
3 the big bang, abiogenesis and evolution after which my parents got together and i hope you know the rest
4 since there are no souls the most logical thing to assume is that you're consciousness you're mind you're personality simply disappear when the brain is affected, in the same way that computer program disappears when you destroy the hard drive on which it is operates

Answer 9

1. No proof and the whole idea is just ludicrous. For me, its just another fairytale / mythology.
2. Of course not. To believe in satan you have to believe in god.
3. Evolution, my parents
4. Nowhere. My consciousness that makes me who I am is gone. Basic energy goes on of course, since energy cannot be destroyed nor created but I won't exist anymore, my "energy" will feed worms, the earth plants, etc. The only immortality or afterlife there is, are the memories of you that people have when you're dead.

Answer 10

1. It does not make sense. "God" never speaks to me; he does not affect my life in any way. I always end up making my own choices and it's not like he ever saved me from anything. There is no evidence.
2. Nope
3. Mother ♥ Father, do I really have to explain this?... (Evolution, if you are asking how I believe humans were created)
4. I will just die. I won't reincarnate, my soul won't go to a different dimension, nothing of that sort exists.

Answer 11

1. Because the idea is ridiculous.
2. Of course not - how could someone possibly believe in devils but not gods?
3. My mummy and daddy. Before that?
4. Going? Nowhere. Once it's over, it's over. Make the most of it.
