At this point in time why believe in god ?

[Issac]

i agree with noamkot!
I believe in science... it can be proved... what I can't see, isn't there.. but that's just my narrow minded oppinion... and many people disagree with me.. but that's fine by me.

however... a fun read about gods and religions is:
Terry Pratchett - Small Gods

very fun, recomended!

Well, remember that "god" does not always means "Jeovah".

Also that science it is not meant to prove or disprove anything metaphysically related. Science, roughly, is to understand the natural phenomenas. If something considered supernatural is explained by science, then it becomes natural.:-D

Anyway, I don't think that the nowadays method of science is the way that we can understand everything, but I don't think that there is a omnipowerful being that cares about what we do or do not.

What if it is there, but we haven't seen it yet?

I don't believe in god but I understand why people would and most importantly I respect other people's beliefs. If you go around spouting anti-religious crap you are just as bad as them.

I figure I'll find out when I die. I'm agnostic. I neither believe, nor disbelieve. I just don't know.

Why must there be another religion topic?

this forum can handle them, don't worry

religion, I don't really care.
as long as your religion doesn't make up your mind before you hear the issue, it's all good in my books.

I will say, after growing up a good little christian, and going to a catholic school, there's no way I could still be a christian this day.
It surprises me how the stuff I grew to hate so much is like the fundamental parts of being a christian, and so many other people haven't been turned off by it.


also, black jesus

my theory is that black jesus invented sex.

 

[bulletmark]

I don't really believe in God, ...

Why put "really" in your sentence?

Unless you can simply say "I don't believe in God" then you're still a believer of fairy tales.

 

[TaMs]

welp, while were on the topic of jesus...

I lol'd

 

[cubin']

lol how old are you bulletmark?

Some people don't believe in god in the traditional sense as some big dude sitting up in the clouds. For some people their favorite sport can be a kind of god, maybe they think god is a certain feeling they get or maybe even trees and stuff..nature could be someones god. Gaming being a god? Awesome, whatever works.

You needa expand ur mind maannnn chances are you're a young boy that doesn't know much of the world (no offense).

You don't really see many older people with life experience parading around telling people what they believe are fairy tails.

Some people just want to keep an open mind about it, it's not like you can ever prove god doesn't exist and it sucks to ridicule other peoples beliefs.

You never know...although personally I think it's extremely unlikely that god exists in the traditional sense you can never be 100% sure.

/end serious

Most of this thread is comedy gold

my theory is that god created evolution.

that's what they tell us at school nowadays, because it's absolutely safe from scientific facts

i imagine one day the following conversation:
prof: "So we developed a time-machine, travelled back to see jesus and all that stuff and we noticed the whole bible, qur'an etc. were totally made up"
believer: "so what? God wanted us to to think so, it's all in God's plan, LOL"

that's why i think monotheistic religons will never "die", i would certainly wish it for islam and christianity (this does _not_ mean i'm against christs and muslims as long as they're friendly to other people, but more against the dangers of the beliefs in these religions, i.e. islamic extremists, evolution-denier, homophobic tendences), but i'm cool with the monotheistic bahaii religion and other religions like buddhism, hinduism, jaoism etc

Although i can't say for sure that there is no god (which makes me a little agnostic) i believe that the evidence is much more going for the does-not-exist theory, thus making me live my life without the belief in a higher being and it's a big party

From a scientific standpoint, this would make god redundant. From a biblical standpoint this is laughable as the "all powerful" and rather neurotic Yahwah (or El depending on which chapter) wouldn't leave design and development to anyone else, particularly environment.

Maybe God/Yahwah/El/Jellyfish decided to released his code as open source?
