    I am wondering how people can spend their lives worshipping something that does not exist. By something I mean god, jesus, allah, or whatever you wanna call it.There have been so many things found that have disproven the existence of any form of divinity. The bible has been prove false over and over again, yet there are still people that live by it. How much sense does that make? I know I am going to get destroyed in this thread by people that are believers but I simple can not fathom how they can continue to believe in a falicy.

    Big Bang Theory is for the evolution of Non Living Planetery Objets, but not Living Organisms.

    Scientists still are not yet sure how Humans were created.
    There are many theories given by many scientists.

    I am always VERY cautious dealing with people that like go out of there way to tell you they are christians or about there beliefs. From my experience most of these people believe this in this higher power becuase they are evil or have done evil things and they need to feel like this higher power will forgive them

    lalalalal

    The christians murdered and slaughetered so many people in the name of god....

    I dunno just my thoughts and I know its not a popular view.

    I totally believe there is some higher power i just dont think it gives a shit about us here on earth

    Inferiority complex... is that what all the religious nutjobs have? Is that why they're always trying to recruit? Now I understand what compels those guys to bike around in white shirts and black pants harrassing people all day when its 120 degrees outside!

    Man, the truth sucks! :D :p

    Nothing that christians or "believers" cna say can make true non believers change their way of thinking. t has nothing to do with an inferiority complex or lack of knowledge of the human body. It has to do with common sense and science. How can a book be followed that contradicts it self in so many ways. One minute it tells you to turn your other cheek, and the next minute it says an eye for an eye. It says things that have been PROVEN to be false. Come on, a boat filled with every animal in the world?! How believable is that?

    It might, if you ever posted any, but I feel safe that'll never happen. Only people I see recruiting on the forum are those who must tell everyone why they don't believe in god. Who are they trying to convince? Us or themselves?

    I am not trying to convince anyone. I am simply asking a question as to why and how can believers be so ignorant to the facts that there simply is no such thing as a thing called god. Or the fact that there was no superhuman man that could walk on water or rise from the dead.

    So you arent trying convince people of anything, but you call them ignorant? The two are contradictory.

    2nd christianity says that god created every thing, but who created god?

    3rd christianity says that you should love every body and treat them
    fairly...hmmm lets see weren't the nazis chritian? Also the crusaders who
    raped,killed, and looted from tones of people did it all in the name of
    "god." Slave drivers that were devoted chritians treated thier slaves like
    nothing. what a way to follow ur religion

    4th the whole adam and eve thing. the bible states that god created adam and
    eve first, but fossil records clearly show that things where on the earth be
    for humans.

    5th the virgin birth. right...just think about it and you will realize how
    stoopid that is. how can a virgin give birth?? that just goes against all
    science except the type of lizard that can clone itself. if you still belive
    in the virgin birth are you implying that mary was a lizard?

    6th noahs arc 2 of every animal ehhh lets see...a boat that can hold 2
    elephants, rhinos, giraffs, hippos, kimono dragons, apes, wolves, and etc.
    is just im possible. it would take a genious to design a boat able to do
    that and noah wasn't a genious.

    7th again bout the noah story. god loves you right? well then how come he
    drowned everything on the planet except 2 of each animal?

    8th Ahhh Noah. A few questions for you too then - where did he get the polar
    bears, penguins, etc from? Noah sends a dove out to see if there was any dry
    land. But the dove returns without finding any. Then, just seven days later,
    the dove goes out again and returns with an olive leaf. But how could an
    olive tree survive the flood? And if any seeds happened to survive, they
    certainly wouldn't germinate and grow leaves within a seven day period. When
    the animals left the ark, what would they have eaten? There would have been
    no plants after the ground had been submerged for nearly a year. What would
    the carnivores have eaten? Whatever prey they ate would have gone extinct.
    And how did the New World primates or the Australian marsupials find there
    way back after the flood subsided? Noah kills the "clean beasts" and burns
    their dead bodies for God. According to the bible, this would have caused
    the extinction of all "clean" animals since only two of each were taken onto
    the ark.

    9th "Love your enemies."
    Well, it's a nice thought. But it seems strange coming from someone who
    damns his enemies to hell.

    i got like 15 more reasons if u STILL believe in god.


    Here is an exerpt from a read that sums it up.

    Difference without distinction.

    Must I answer these questions? Fine.

    Why does god need a creator. If he is and always has been, it precludes the concept of him being created.

    3 is stupid. please ask an intelligent question. one's perversion of religion doesn't take away from the original writings.

    4 bible never says adam and eve were created first.

    5 god doesnt ask you to believe

    6 bible doesnt say 2 of every animal. please re-read and come back when you understand. second, i posted about this in another thread. please find that and come back.

    7 please read my previous posts about this, and come back with a better question

    8 stuck on noah? have a man crush on him, or something?

    If you believe in the big bang. Explain to me the contradiction that, if science says "something cannot come from nothing" - this makes the big bang impossible.

    And, if you believe in evolution, why is it that the evolution of man has no branches? Every other create branches off (millions of types of apes, fish, etc), but there is only one type of man? How does that make sense?

    All are homo sapiens. The differences between them are insignificant and superficial.

    My question is why would you go to science - a physical-only establishment - to prove something non-physical incorrect?

    If we evolved the first of the evolving would still have to be created ;)
