We have no visual proof to believe in the afterlife. That's what's great about FAITH. :hippy:
I avoided the word "better" with good reason. I'm saying that someone of faith (let's keep it Xian belifs for simplicity's sake) believes that they have an advantage over a non believer. They have to. They believe that they will be rewarded for their behaviour, and beliefs. If they didn't believe this, then there'd be no point to the belief in the first place.

And the wrath of God will come upon all the children of men.
When my parents told me I couldn't do something, and they didn't have a reason, and told me "Because I SAID SO", who's "right"? They certainly didn't have an answer or a reason. Are you saying it's impossible to outsmart someone because they made you?

To me, the Xian God I read about is anything but love. The God I read about has an inferiority complex and for some reason is quite shy. Every once in a while he comes out because he's mad and has a tantrum that usually kills a bunch of people because they don't listen to him. that's the god I read about.

to a stranger? NOT!!!, so you shouldn't judge him.
I don't understand the point you're trying to make, but of course the people closer to you mean more to you.
Hardcore Newbie Reviewed by Hardcore Newbie on . Why God does not exist, in one sentence. Okay guys, I have been posting on this forum of recent, but have yet to start a thread of my own. So just for the fun of it, I decided to do so. Here goes my question. If you were asked to state the one thing that you feel the strongest as to why God does not exist what would you say? I'm not looking for an entire paragraph. Just give me your strongest feeling in one sentence. Thanks for playing :thumbsup: Examples: God does not exist cause I have never seen him.
