my thoughts:

I dont believe in god, I believe in a higher power. With all the religions in the world, theres no telling which one is true..if any.

Secondly, I feel "GOD" or religion, was created to control people. Nothing more, and control people it DID. In europe in the 1500's the church controlled everything, they with-held ideas, and basic theories that are now FACTS from the public. They controlled people and anyone who didnt believe them was shunned. So, with this said, I believe religion has only hindered the human race.

To people who say theres a god, because the universe couldnt just "be there" or someone had to of created everything -- Bullshit. If someone HAD to of created the earth, and all that lovely stuff, who created that someone?

basically, what it boils down too, is religion is something that people use to enlighten their life. its a peace of thought thinking to yourself "im going to heaven" rather than when I die, i'll be buried 6 feet under. Its a way of making people want to do the right thing, because otherwise, they're going to hell. Just my thoughts

I'm gonna have to fall somewhere in the middle of this discussion.
I don't necessarily believe in the Christian view of "God," but I believe there is some higher power, be it Aliens, or whatever the **** you want, I haven't seen any biological theory about how earth was formed that satisfied my curiousity.

So that would make you an Agnostic like myself. :)

To be honest I have no religion, but I do believe in God. I believe that God does exist and that he created Earth and everything else in the Universe, but I don't think he created Human or even expected it to be created. So much scientific study has proven that nature has created life on this planet and that Humans came from Monkeys. Primordial Soup (or whatever its called) is what created life on this planet (in my belief) and I also believe that other more distant planets that we have never heard of were made the exact same way. Basically summing it all up, I'm saying that I believe in God and that he created the Universe, but nothing organic, like people. And that people just evolved from Monkey's (even though I really hate to say that Humans came from Monkeys).

God cannot exist if we consider unequality among us all.
Why the **** do we have to suffer.
"We can overcome our suffering with hope and faith?" **** you. Some are not fortunate enough to have such a chance and die after crying their whole life.

Some are rich, some are poor.
Some are good looking, some are ugly.
Some are smart, some stupid.

How come some are lucky while others are not?

Why is god so stupid to create such a world with so much pain.


And he/she says it's OUR fault. OUR ****ing fault that Adam and Eve ****ing ate that stupid forbidden fruit. What the **** is that?

Human are mortals, tis why we are beautiful and with so many flaws. Why hadn't God calculated Eve eventually eating that ****ing fruit? Was it a ****ing masterplan from the start to make the generation of humans suffer?


We live in such a ****ing world from a loser's perspective. A world where hope cannot get us everything, or even just save us from suffering.



I doubt myself being alive a lot of times and curse God a lot. Why did he give me this ****ing life. I don't want to live it! Is it my fault I got born.


Oh, I do fight. Not for God though. For me.




I don't believe in God. Even if he does exist, I won't follow him.

just wonderin, ya know.
"If God is all Powerful can he make a rock so big not even he can lift it???"

No. That is an oxymoron. If he was all powerful, he would be able to lift any rock... not matter how "big"

Also... your an idiot.

I Guess i will be the only one to stand up for God

listen to you all bashing god when you guys know nothing about the bible.

you know nothing about god and you bash him

same thing as you dont know nothing about other people and you assume that they wear glasses or have no friends?

what more do you know about satan?

a Bible dates back to centuries and people have been trying to burn that thing a bizzilion times....and yet...it still survived?...coincidence?..

you say they make up shit for questions they cannot answer?...that is which not true...there were James,Matthew,Luke,John,Paul i think and all of them in different time periods wrote the EXACT same thing?...coincidence?..

you think people suffer because of God?
God has a plan for everyone in the world...there is a SATAN and there is a GOD

no doubt about that

There is a spirtual war going on inside your room right next to you and you dont even know about it..there fighting for your soul...heard of the term fallen angels?...everytime you think bad, sin there is a fallen angel because they have just lost a piece of you.

God lets people suffer to build them stronger...he can't do nothing to those he cannot help..hes not gonna come to you...he wants you to go to him.

if your on your mother f'in deathbed do you look to satan for comfort?..

why do priests and shit appear?...why look to god for a last resort?...he's glad you do at your deathbed better sooner then never...why do people fall and cry to god and blame god?...

he hurts for you man...he hurts for you...he protects many...

i used to be like...a non believer sort of i was so unsure of myself and so unsure of everything in this world...

god was the only thing that made sense to me...if you stopped listening with your mind and listened with your heart you would understand what im saying.

God waits for you. He wants you to realize that hes the only one you need in your life.

in the next several posts i will argue all of you guys because i will stand for what i believe in with examples most true and some to make you think

Example number 1:

Something to think about..............

Once upon a time, there was a rich King who had four wives.

He loved teh 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and
treated her to the finest of delicacies. He gave her nothing but
the best.

He also loved the 3rd wife very much and was always showing her off
to neighboring kingdoms. However, he feared taht one day she would
leave him for another.

He also loved his 2nd wife. She was his confidant and was always
kind, considerate and patient with him. Whenever the King faced a
problem, he could confide in her, and she would help him get through
the difficult times.

The Kin's 1st wife was a very loyal partner and had made great
contributions in maintaining his wealth and kingdom. However, he
did not love the first wife. Although she loved him deeply, he
hardly took notice of her!

One day, the King fell ill and he knew his time was short. He
thought of his luxurious life and wondered, "I now have four wives
with me, but when I die, I'll be all alone."

Thus, he asked the 4th wife, "I have loved you the most, endowed you
with the finest clothing and showered great care over you. Now that
I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?"

"No way!", replied the 4th wife, and she walked away without another
word. Her answer cut like a sharp knife right into his heart.

The said King then asked the 3rd wife, "I have loved you all my
life. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?"

"No!", replied the 3rd wife. "Life is too good! When you die, I'm
going to remarry!" His heart sank and turned cold.

He then asked the 2nd wife, "I have always turned to you for help
and you've always been there for me. When I die, will you follow me
and keep me company?"

"I'm sorry, I can't help you out this time!", replied the 2nd wife.
"At the very most, I can only send you to your grave." Her answer
came like a bolt of lightning, and the King was devastated.

Then a voice called out: "I'll leave with you and follow you no
matter where you go." The King looked up,, and there was his first
wife! she was so skinny as she suffered from malnutrition and
neglect.

Greatly grieved, the King said, "I should have taken much better
care of you when I had the chance!"

In truth, we all have 4 wives in our lives:

Our 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we
lavish in making it look good, it will leave us when we die.

Our 3rd wife is our possessions, status, and wealth. When we die,
it will all go to others.

Our second wife is our family and friends. No matter how much they
have been there for us, the furthest they can stay by us is up to
the grave.

And our 1st wife is our Soul. Often neglected in pursuit of wealth,
power, and pleasurs of the world. However, our Soul is the only
thing that will follow us wherever we go. So cultivate, strengthen
and cherish it now, for it is the only part of us who will follow us
to teh throne of God and continue with us throughout Eternity.

When the world pushes you to your knees...You're in the perfect
position to pray. Have a good day! Think about this...Are you
aware that if we died tomorrow, teh company that we are qorking for
could easily replace us in a matter of days. But teh family we left
behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to
think of it, we pour ourselves into work than to our own family, an
unwise investment indeed, don't you think? And we often treat
strangers and co-workers better than members of our family.

Would you run?

Imagine this happening to you. *

One Sunday morning during service,
a 2,000 member congregation was
surprised to see two men enter,
both covered from head to toe in black
and carrying submachine guns.
One of the men proclaimed,"Anyone
willing to take a bullet for Christ
remain where you are."

*

Immediately, the choir fled, the deacons fled,
and most of the congregation fled.
Out of the 2,000 there only remained around 20.

*

The man who had spoken took off his hood,
looked at the preacher and said
"Okay Pastor, I got rid of all
the hypocrites. Now you may begin
your service. Have a nice day!"
And the two men turned and walked out.

*

Too deep not to pass on...

*

Funny how simple it is for people to
trash God ... and then wonder why the
world is in the condition it is today..

*

Funny how we believe what the
newspapers say, but question
what the Bible says.

*

Funny how everyone wants to go to
heaven provided they do not have to believe,
think, say, or do anything the Bible says.

*

Funny or is it scary?

*

Funny how someone can say
"I believe in God" but still follow Satan
(who, by the way, also "believes"in God).

*

Funny how you can send a thousand 'jokes'
through e-mail and they spread like wildfire,
but when you start sending messages
regarding the Lord, people think twice
about sharing.

*

Funny how the lewd, crude, vulgar and
obscene pass freely through cyber space,
but the public discussion of Jesus is
suppressed in the school and work place.
*

Funny, isn't it? Funny how someone can
be so fired up for Christ on Sunday,
but be an invisible Christian
the rest of the week.

*

Are you laughing?

*

Funny how when you go to forward this
message, you will not send it to many on
your address list because you're not sure
what they believe, or what they will
think of you for sending it to them.

*

Funny how I can be more worried about
what other people think of me than what
God thinks of me.

*

Are you thinking?
Will you share this with people you care about?
Or not?
