This is a debating topic not a abusing thread. I myself believe in a god as there must be some sort of life after death. I know there isnt much evidence, but its just what I believe it and don't ask me why its my choice. I will back up my answers if use do accuse me of lieing.

This is the Something for All forum, where you DEBATE. You can't simply say something is real with no evidence or reason.
 
None of the atheists I know live a destructive life-style.
How has praying helped you? I've had my fair share of luck too, kiddo. If luck is good enough for you, try it at a casino.

Why would believing in an invisible man in the sky bring purpose to your life?

lol u've had your fair share of luck too? Okay buddy by praying i meant for people i cared about, if i was sick. I DIDN'T mean praying for items like money like you think im talkin about. I dont care whats been proven or not, i have my own reasons to believe in a god unlike your selfish life.
btw stop that dumb "invisible man in the sky" because that is more of just a random steriotype. to me and many other catholics its just a spiritual thing which you will never understand so go have fun masterbating your selfish life away
 
Yes, I do belive in god.

hell yea i do and you know what i believe that a lot of people dont believe in a religion due to being lazy and wanting to live a destructive life style (some not all). in my honest opinion the only purpose of a nonbeliever's life is to satisfy their personal pleasures and desires. in my mind if you dont believe in something you are being selfish to the life you've been giving. forget science for once, god's existance can sound unbelievable but no scientist can explain why the human race exists so why are you following them if they can't explain existance either.
Even a priest wont be able to explain fully why we are here but u best believe in something or your life has no purpose except to fill your greedy desires.
It's like this- i cannot prove gods existance but praying has helped me in the past and ya know what? thats good enough for me. dont believe in god because ur scared of hell, dont believe in god because you are being told to, believe in him for your own reasons and to keep a purpose to your life.

You think science cannot explain our existence? Think again.
 
I dont study science but what ive heard I must say Monkeys=God
 
In my opinion, there is no god... I believe some very intelligent men got together and made this whole "god" thing up...

They must have been really really really smart because they wrote an entire book that absolutely no one can disprove.

so go have fun masterbating your selfish life away

I love to masturbate lol it's only bad when you think about lustful things like sticking your shiny new penis into a fancy new vagina.

Monkeys are just a less evolved version of us.
Why didn't they all evolve with the rest of us? It makes no sense to me. Explain your reason but no debate please.

I am Christian all the way!

The Bible contradicts itself many times.

'Then he [Moses] said to them, "This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: 'Each man strap a sword to his side. Go back and forth through the camp from one end to the other, each killing his brother and friend and neighbor.' " The Levites did as Moses commanded, and that day about three thousand of the people died.'

Deut 25:11-12

If men get into a fight with one another, and the wife of one intervenes to rescue her husband from the grip of his opponent by reaching out and seizing his genitals, you shall cut off her hand; show no pity.

Deut 21:18-21

If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey his father and mother, who does not heed them when they discipline him, then his father and his mother shall take hold of him and bring him out to the elders of his town at the gate of that place. They shall say to the elders of his town, ‘This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.’ Then all the men of the town shall stone him to death. So you shall purge the evil from your midst; and all Israel will hear, and be afraid.

The list goes on.


I have no idea about why monkeys didn't evolve with us. Do you expect me to?


You believe in things that cannot be proved. You just simply have faith even though their is no empirical evidence to back up your beliefs. You are an imbecile all the way.

And it doesn't bother you at all that premarital sex is a sin, and that the OT condones murder on adulterers?

The theory is not that humans came from monkeys, but that humans evolved from an earlier species which Monkeys also evolved from. Monkeys are not our ancesors, but our cousins--both humans and monkeys (and apes) evolved from a species that was neither human or monkey (or ape). Some important points:

1. Modern monkeys share some distant ancestors with humans, and those ancestors did look something like monkeys, but they were not the same as modern monkeys. Man and monkeys both came from a monkey-like species millions of years ago. Humans did not evolve from modern monkeys.

2. Humans are actually more closely related to apes than to monkeys. But humans did not evolve "from apes" either. Apes have a common ancestor with humans much more recent than either apes or humans have with monkeys.

3. Additionally, if a species evolves out of another species, the theory of evolution does not require that the original "parent" species must then disappear. Evolution is a process the develops *species* based on events that happen to *individuals*. If some monkey-like ancestor of humans left the forest to live on the savannah, and they had brothers and cousins who stayed in the forest, it was quite possible that those who stayed back remained something like they were for many generations while those who migrated to the savannah changed due to their new environment. In actual fact this did not occur, because the forest environment itself was changing (the forests were dying off due to climate changes, giving way to the savannah, which was why some of the prehuman primates were forced to survive in their new savannah environment). However, there are many instances where part of a species evolves into another species while another part of that species remains unchanged, and is therefore still the same species.[/QUOTE]

I am abstinent. I didn't even use the words permarital or sex in that last post so I don't know why you think that. Also that is the old testament which we do not follow anymore and for the very reasons that gridsword posted lol.

The Bible contradicts itself many times.

The things you mentioned are not contradicting. The people went out and did what He told them, people died because of it.

Because it's in the old testament. He doesn't tell people now days to go out and kill people just because.


And personal jesus, if the sun loses 5ft every minute I think then 1 million years ago the sun would be burning Earth up

You believe in things that cannot be proved.

There are things called dead sea scrolls. They are the scrolls on which the very people that wrote the Bible wrote on. That right there is enough proof for me. The very people that saw Jesus wrote them.

Did you miss the part where Jesus tells you to follow the old testament until judgment day? I don't remember where it was, but surely you know the Bible better than I do.

The people who saw supposedly Jesus were all dead when the Bible was written. It was written about 100 - 150 AD.

By the way, wouldn't it better to have a book written by God's most important prophet, dictated word for word by God himself? That book is the Quaran, why do you value these scrolls over a book that is dictated by God?



Before you assume I'm a Muslim: I'm not (pure atheist), just putting your sacred scrolls in perspective.
 
The Qu'ran was not dictated by god, as god does not exist. There is simply no evidence to suggest that there is a god. Give me some proof please.
 
I do im catholic and think to everybody who doesent pur world is so complex and everything works just right so how can their not be a god

If you're going to post your assumptions based on the world "working", please leave SFA.
 
lol shredderman you say that science can prove our existance and that god is our ignorance. so does this also mean that ur just another individual that follows whatever society says and does what every one else does. I bet you try to wear abercrombie clothes just to follow the trends and you believe whatever you are told.
if you really want to be the same as everyone else and believe in all steriotypes than be my guess but does that not make you a mindless lemming?

Haha wow your in for it with it shredder. Be happy if he's nice about it :P

And by the way, I would have liked to, but no I don't.

Also I would like to point out, that he is not the mindless one, you are. If you had a brain you could have actually posted a well thoughtout response with better grammar :D
