The Existence of God

Macroevolution takes a very long time to happen - much longer than 4,000 years.

I am explaining how the principle is an argument against design.

There are two types of evolution, not six. I guess you've been listening to Dr. Kent Hovind?

We know that physics, mathematics, etc. are true because they bear out in reality. We can theorize all we like about formulas for acceleration, but they're useless unless they actually apply in real life.

Irrelevant. "X is comforting" does not imply "X is true".

"5. When was the Gospel of Mark written? Dating an ancient document is a mystery, a puzzle and a riddle. Internal evidence is scant and external evidence is contradictory. Basic to the dating of Mark is the scholarly conviction that he is writing before the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in 70 A.D. Evidence also indicates that the Neronic persecution may be the backdrop. A date of 64 A.D. is commonly accepted."

You'll find that that date seems to be repeated over and over across several sources.

I did not say that that made it false, rather, that that made it unreliable.

You copied it down from a video, yes.

 

Okay Pimping_One, lets all pretend for now that you are actually right(I'll get to responding to your post later on), why is it Jesus and not Allah? I'd say the Koran is just as well written if not better written than The Bible.

 

I think there is a god. Something has to make the first lifevorm. I've heard the evolution theory, but there will always be questions. So for me yeah, there is a god. I do not believe in hell and heaven tough. Sorry for any typo's i'm not english.

 

Argument from ignorance.

Please research abiogenesis.

 

No, I don't believe in a god. I also think that religion is WRONG, because it's giving people false hope. It causes death, arguments, war... It's just a lie made up by some kind of government a long time ago. It's ultimate control you see? If you're good, you go to a happy place, if you're bad you go to hell and burn and suffer for all of time. It's better than saying 'if you're bad you go to jail.

 

I'm sorry, I google'd it then found the wikipedia page. but it's too much for me to read ( and understand )

 

Then how can you make a conclusion without any knowedge? Its easy to say "god did it", and thats why people believe.

 

i belive go here and u see godeyes in the sky

No, that's clouds.

You believe in an all powerful god, who can see what everyone does, every second of every day just because of these clouds?

 

Oh no, you're all wrong, I saw a cloud shaped like a dragon once THIS MEANS THAT GOD IS A DRAGON.

 

lol, you cant say "i saw a cloud and it looked like god so that means he is real" thats a bit... :l

 

No, nor do i believe in Heaven, Hell, Purgatory, or even Jesus's 'Powers'. I mean come on, he split the red sea in two? The bible is over exaggerated. In my opinion, Jesus DID exist, but he did NOT have powers. He probably built a bridge across the sea or something, and when the Jews saw they could get across, it probably looked like a miracle.

 

I believe there's something, but believe nobody has gotten ti right because its impossible to know something without proof. I have no faith in stuff like tihs.

 

Jesus never claimed to split the Red Sea. That was Moses.

 

yeah, the only type of "powers" jesus had was to make like 1 bread and fish go to 1k ppl, moses did all the other stuff like you said.

 

Empirical evidence please.

 

So says the document written 35 years after Jesus's death.

 

i believe in jesus when you know your god.. you got hope

 

There is definatly some sort of higherself out there, I am a firm beleiver in this as I was shown by my mother about this. I do not follow or worship any religion, but I have my own sentimental evidence that there is something out there that is alot bigger than the human race.

 

Do you have any justifications for your beliefs in the supernatural, or do you accept it on faith?
