    you got it all wrong, god does not hate his own creation or like you said god is truth, god can see beyond the flesh and blood. besides i would like to know polite teen humans use the word hate so easily, have you ever felt true hate?

    You are all mad

    Bin Laden is the beast see here > http://kd-mains.com/osama-bin-laden-revelations.htm

    And although the Avatars and the gathering storm turned out to be BULL (yeah I've watched Charmed LOL) God (if it turns out to exist) needs a good swift kicking if all the misery in this world is part of some grand plan!

    Free will is the biggest lie ever as colours and their effects totally negate that to start with - but heck what do I know I just do SEO and have some nice cartoon characters designed to try and teach things like spelling grammar English and the meaning of words >

    But I will now bow down to some GOD unless the freaking moron meets me on even terms and proves his case and explains things and more to the point

    Shows me why oh why all this was part of the grand plan...

    Decoder, you'll get a lot of that here.

    Luckily there's stOx, an Atheist like myself - to explain to the truly devout why blowing up buildings, discriminating against gays, abusing women and children etc is all wrong.

    Also, indeed, the evils in the world are really the biggest turn off when it comes to "god".

    There are two options here:
    1) God is not in fact all powerful, leaving him to watch helplessly all the evil in the world.
    Or;
    2) God is all powerful and simply allows babies to die, women to be raped, children to be abused and murdered, etc.

    believing in a religion is a safe bet.

    if there is a God and you believe in him, it can't hurt.

    Well, if Baal or Thor turn out to be the true god and you picked another god they'll be as pissed at you as they'll be at atheists.

    it's like the movie "contact" where they say 90% of the world's population believes in a higher deity and questioning that would be sort of like calling 90% of the world's population delusional.

    yes I can, thanks for asking.

    "god of Pureness"? Isn't that one of them meaninless vague phrases that the religious use because they don't actually know what they are talking about? What pearls of wisdom do you have next for us? I hope it's something about "energy", "vibrations" and "oneness". They are my favorite forms of Meaningless made up bollocks.

    thank you for avoiding my question. you can't even explain your own self-consciousness but you are 100% sure there is no god, such arrogance..

    "the meaningless made up bollocks" sentences are not going to work on me stox you will have to try harder then that, because i don't believe in any religion.

    give me your best shot please, would you like to hear more about my god?

    I love your arrogance <3

    He didn't answer your question, Daniel, because it wasn't worded as a question like that - you just wanted to know if he could, and he can - perhaps request that he does?

    Also, if you aren't ashamed of yourself, why not just name a religion?
