I know how you feel, but that's a bad argument.Good Ass Job said:I mean really, They say do all this good shit and no bad if you want to go to heaven, I mean I do all this good stuff but what do I get in return? My Dad dies, WTF?
I will say that for the last 2 years my mom had no job. Once I got people at church and myself to pray consistently about it 3 months after-wards, she finally got a job. That's the only thing that changed within the last few months before the 2 years. So I attribute that blessing as God's work.RICE said:OK, answer this
What good things have god done to you?
LOL, so you actually think that was because of god? ...TheWolvesDen said:I will say that for the last 2 years my mom had no job.

Yeah to be frank. Its the only thing that changed in the last few months. Vs 2 years of my mom being overqualified + having connects and getting no where before. I am think I personally will chalk that up to God.RICE said:LOL, so you actually think that was because of god? ...

I don't think that's really how it works.WestFan said:Why not? Isn't it basically your duty as a Christian to help people understand the word of God?
Religion doesn't = morals. Which isn't to say that people don't use religion as a catalyst for their morals. We won't even get started on the relativity of the concept of evil, but good and evil don't necessarily correlate with religion either.Wake Up Mr. West said:it depends. i think with religion in the beginning was that it helped balanced us on good and evil.
it made us understood that there our consequences for our actions in a way.
if we lived in a world never questioning death or what our purpose is in our life then there would be nothing to fear after, there would be no consequences for our wrong doings and therefore there would be no reason to have remorse or morals for being evil.
lolTito. said:The thing about atheists, that I don't understand... is... do you all really believe that we humans are able to govern ourselves and at the same time live peacefully? You really think it's possible that as human beings, we can live in this universe all by ourselves with no higher guiding, and be peaceful?
Do you believe the difference between the U.S. sending a nuclear missile over at Russia and not doing is was "because if felt like the right thing to do?"
You all might not feel me on this, but I have a hard time believing that we live in the state we live in without higher governing.
No, I'm saying "God must exist because without a God we would have long since eliminated each other".jacob said:what the fuck are you even going on about?
if i understand you correctly... you're saying, 'god must exist because without a god a peaceful world doesn't exist'. but yo... a peaceful world doesn't exist
And I'm saying that "God" is nothing more than an invention created by the weak to give us hope that our miserable nothings of an existence isn't the only thing that is there. And religion has been used as an oppressor by the upper echelon for centuries. It is not God that prevents us from eliminating each other, it's the fear of what this figment of our imagination will do to us, and what the repercussions of committing sin will be that keeps us in line. Religion is truly one of the best inventions man has conjured up, better than laws, better than the fuckin iPad.Tito. said:No, I'm saying "God must exist because without a God we would have long since eliminated each other".
