The lens through which you view your life is already colored by Christianity, so you'll see God in anything out of the ordinary. Me, I don't need God when I have powerful human beings who care for me. I don't need God because there's nothing I fear that's insurmountable. I think everyone who believes in God so strongly must be deeply afraid of something else, be it death, sickness, hunger, misery, etc. Christians say those afflictions are caused by Satan, I say they're caused by failures of humanity, and that Satan is just everybody's favorite scapegoat. Thus the fear of Satan will make one run towards God with open arms.

I don't need God anymore because I believe in myself, in what my mind can achieve, in a positive mindset, in the potential of humanity to surmount any ill. We dno't need God anymore. Oh how right was Nietzsche when he said, "God is dead."
Howdy FLESH,

Maybe I am being patronizing,but tell me this..are you a parent ? If you ain't a parent,then there's a whole side of Life that you are missing out on. Being a parent,requires one to learn selflessness and how to nurture others than just yerself.

I tell you what-I ain't never heard anyone say that they don't need God..because there are powerful human beings lookin out for em..I would never entrust my care to another human,I was raised to rely on myself and no one else..I would never fool myself into believeing for even a moment-that relying on an imperfect human..is ever a good thing.

We all need God now more than ever..and He/She,is alive and well..and always will be..and so is Jesus Christ. I have no reason to fear death or satan,as long as I give myself to God and Jesus Christ..while I do fear the Wrath of God..I don't come to God,out of fear..I know that God loves me,just as God loves us all,including you..oh errant lamb..I trust God to take care of me..not some imperfect sinner..no matter how powerful they may be,they are nothing in the face of God's Power.

Have a good one ....
