Why God does not exist, in one sentence.

[GraziLovesMary]

Yes there are. And you are one of them! :stoned:

I readily admit that I know nothing. I can only surmise and make educated guesses, which is why I get confused when some people intimately know beyond a doubt what is in their "God"s heart.

It's not about how much someone knows, it's about his word being true. :jointsmile:

"Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him."

I see... *sigh* well... thank you very much for putting that into perspective for me :wtf:

Bible quotations are nice and cute, but it is one of the biggest reasons why religious debates tire me. People put their entire faith in this book which they claim was divinely inspired. Whether or not it was... its still a very stale argument. I get sick of speaking with people using logistics and empirical data, and their responses are unoriginal sentences from a coveted book that is really quite open to many different interpretations. I am 22 and have been having intense theological discussions for over 15 years. I have heard and read everything the bible has to offer, in many different versions. I have also heard countless thousands of different interpretations on the same quotes.

I am happy for you that you have been turned onto what you believe to be true. I wish you peace and prosperity and whatever else you may seek.

Wow, you were an intense dude at 7 :wtf:
You are over qualified for this thread. So if these types of debates sicken you, make a better attempt at avoiding them. :asskick:

lol i highly doubt this

[palerider7777]

Well, I don't believe in "sin", I do believe some acts are immoral.

I also don't agree with the death penalty, as the death penalty is murder. I do agree with life in prison (isolation if need be) to prevent the murderer from murdering again.

I think we've been down this road before. My mindset is, if someone is willing to give out a punishment without giving the reason for the punishment, the punishment is unjust. From what I've read, God punishes immoral acts, but in many cases does not define the reason for the immorality.

I hope you can see why myself, and many others, cannot put faith into the bible. I disagree with many of the messages, and there are no ways to reconcile these disagreements. If someone were to make demands upon me the way that the Bible does (ie goverment) I'd question their motives. Why should I make an exception for the Bible? It doesn't make sense to.

Always fun talking to you

i think if sum of these guys that are on death row did sum of the things that they have done to someone real close to u i think u might see it a lil diffrent

[1] To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
[2] A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
[3] A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
[4] A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
[5] A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
[6] A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
[7] A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
[8] A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace."

Perhaps, but I highly doubt it. Two wrongs don't make a right.
