I find that comment offensive. I dont believe in God. But I wish I could. Because you people that do believe in God have a beautiful gift, you have JOY that we faithless can never know. And you throw it in our faces as if we turned God away on purpose! YOU are the HAVES and WE are the HAVE NOTS. Ours is the way of pain and suffering. Yours is the way of security in the knowlege that your God is watching, pushing, helping and everything will turn out all right because he loves you.

I'm I firm believer that those who do not believe in God simply can't. Even so, the fact that you do not believe, doesn't mean that this causes your pain, and suffering. It has nothing to do with God, it has to do with you, and how you approach life.

The beleivers have only one thing that you do not; they have the belief that they will live forever.

I find my comfort in the way I choose to live, not by what I believe in...

My belief in God give gives me strength much more than comfort..just because a christian believes in God..their faith..does not mean we do not have tragedies..but he has carried me through some experiences of life that I KNOW without him..I would be in an institution or dead. I have a good life now..by earths definition but most important I am learning Peace Of Mind.

Alternately, the believers are intimately aware of the inavoidability of their own death. And so life takes on a very different meaning.

God doesn't cause me anything because I dont believe in him. But I'm not ashamed to say I'm jealous of you beacuse you have the divine gift that is God.

Some may disagree, but if you want the divine gift of God, one only need to know this:

1 John 4:7-8

7. Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
8. He that loveth not, knoweth not God; for God is love.

No need to be jealous, poorprincess. If you know love at all, then you know God. Some will say that God is more than love, but I don't know the reality of this. I believe that God is the source behind love, and when you embrace love, you actually embrace the source. ;)

No need to create an abstract image of what God is, or isn't; you only need to embrace the gift that is God...Love!

(IMO)

Peace,

I dont know, maybe poetry?

Damn man dont waste ur second chance and become somebody!

I am already god, who else would I be?
