Do you believe in GOD?

[GPIDEAL]

An almighty being that lets kids die of cancer, watch innocent people die horrible deaths at the hands of rapists / murderers, steadies the aim of a maniac shooting 50 plus innocent people in Las Vegas, watches disinterested as another shoots school children repeatedly in the face only to delight in the sorrow to their parents ??? That almighty loving God ?

You can't sell me the God but you might be able to convince me of the devil.

Boo hoo hoo. :Cry:

If you expect a blissful existence, you need to be born, live, and then die, without making a pack with the Devil, before you can live in Paradise.

God gave us Free Will and made us Human. That means you can't expect him to resolve your fucking problems or take you out of your misery here on this mortal life we call Earth (which some say is Hell).

Capisce?

Now as for what Lexi Rose was asking about, I agree with Aardie that it is inappropriate to push religion on employees. WTF?!?!?!?

 

[GPIDEAL]

OMG he's so funny. I saw a thread of his calling out Trump and his small penis. hahahah

As for the question at hand. YES I believe in God. Yes I believe God has kept me safe, gives me strength and provides for me. There is to many examples of intervention in my life and others to not believe.

:amen: as to your last sentence. (And oh God you're beautiful, just as Lexi Rose is).

I also like reading the Tweets of God, lol.

According to superstring theory, there are at least 10 dimensions in the universe (M-theory actually suggests that there are 11 dimensions to spacetime; bosonic string theories suggest 26 dimensions).

We live in the 3 dimensional world and are bound in the 4th which is time.

All dimensions are perpendicular to one another. In the higher dimensions you can access time like we can through our x, y, z.

Energy lives forever and transforms from matter to energy and back and forth.

In our observed universe all of our atoms came from a singularity during the Big Bang.

We can’t even see how big the universe is due to the limitations of the speed of light and time.

We exist in the present, past and the future and everything is just happening.

God is how you define it and what you believe. It may simply be a higher dimensional being that has influence on us and our existence.

Religion, Politics and Culture are the root of our problems and aim to control the masses and take away from our individualism and our spiritual growth and enlightenment.


Don’t let anyone define God for you. Just use love as your compass and your spirit as the vessel and you will find god and the meaning of your life in this world.

Yes, and God was not created because he is sovereign.
He created everything and is a spirit.
https://www.gotquestions.org/God-is-sovereign.html
God and religion are two different things.
Religion is man made and can be a path to God.
God requires obedience and is averse to sin so naturally, most on here will not believe.
In fact by man's disobedience and penchant for sin, one can say that man believes more in the Devil(his Ego) than he does God.

I assume that if your belief is strong - it can survive a few innocent questions from the curious ...
'God was not created because he is sovereign.
He created everything and is a spirit.'
How do you know this as a fact ? If it is from old stories - how do you know it hadn't started as a bedtime fable for a child when it originated ?
Does God have family ? Was he born ? Where did he acquire his/her knowledge ? If you can provide answers - does that mean God provided a resume in ancient times ?

'God requires obedience and is averse to sin so naturally, most on here will not believe.'
Are you suggesting that sex - the method your God designed and created in order procreate (sustain) his pet project is a sin ? Says who ? I suggest that sex is God's will and to celebrate in the the Church of Terb is to honour God and his/her creation.

'God requires obedience'
Why ? Why does he care ? You are casting this God as a ruthless tyrant who created life only to reinforce a fragile ego by requesting an endless stream of compliments.


I have no problems of anyone worshipping their particular deity as long as zealots don't over ride other individuals rights to live life under their own philosophy. Many people are unable to handle life without their religion

 

[VERYBADBOY]

My upbringing is such that I do believe in God, I have faith.

What I do not believe in is organized religion.

I have studied comparative theology as well as philosophy and when you get down to existence and freewill vs determinism etc. You are still left to questions unanswered. The belief in God does not mean that I believe in the Devils existence, ie. belief in one then you have to believe in the other, it's just another between good and evil that is manifest in man.

Yes, boo-hoo on the torture your compassionate God inflicts on children ! Boo-hoo on all the horrors that your God is capable of stopping but insteads revells at personal agony he created!

This is your imaginary God ... GPIDEAL .. I'm only pointing out the inconsistencies (stupidity) in your belief to reality. Are you so weak minded in this cowering philosophy of yours - that you are incapable of seeing the blatant contradictions ? What kind of God is worth bending a knee and praising if they torture the innocent ?

'God gave us Free Will and made us Human. That means you can't expect him to resolve your fucking problems.' So that means your God doesn't care and the 'fucking' problems of an innocent tortured child are (by his choice) - the child's problem ? Nice useless deity you grovel for GPIDEAL . I suggest you worship the tooth fairy or Santa Claus ... they seem to have a better attitude towards kids.

Boo-Hoo for tortured kids - how disgusting an attitude. Obviously I lack the moral fibre to join your cult.

Jesus said, beware of false prophets. For me to totally believe in God, I have to see one miracle in particular.

It seems that a few here are in despite need of deprogramming.

Amazed at how well this still works,... but I guess one has to realize that brainwashing the young is a very powerful tool.

Believing in a god,... pick one,... would disappear in a couple of generations, if children were not being force fed this silliness.

And no one needs to disprove the unprovable,... that is also silly.

 

[Zoot Allures]

Nope.

Carlin is really saying (although he does not state it) he does not believe in religion

There are two types of gods. Interfering gods - theism ( religion )- and non interfering gods - deism


As a God cannot be disproved there are no thoughtful atheists (you cannot prove a negative)

Actually, neither study states that,..."children naturally believe in god",... but it was simply easy for them, when the concept was brought up,... to accept it.

Considering that a five year old is very impressionable, and would willing accept a concept that promised some super person was always looking out for them,...quite a waste of 1.9 Billion pounds, but hey,... got to keep these leaches employed.

I also believe in God. I also believed that God helped Trump win the POTUS. And God will help him to get reelected as a two term POTUS!

I wholeheartedly believe in the Divinity. I do not know why I do, I just do. Like I know that fire is hot or that ice is cold. For the record I have never attended church regularly. I didn't attend Catholic School. I don't know much about the Bible past the 10 Commandments.
The question I have for those who seek to challenge the existence of God is why even bother? Is believing in God or being strong of faith really such a bad thing? How does it advance society to try and prove God doesn't exist?

Because then we don't feel any guilt when we are f*cking a different woman each week.

With the concept of there being a god it makes our hedonistic tendencies rather shameful.

For instance, I feel bad when I accidentally exclude someone from a party because I make them feel bad. I have a conscience. If there is no god then I feel no remorse for f*cking like an animal which in most religious teachings is unacceptable.

Convince me that god exists and I may be apt to clean up my act.

Your love of fucking like an animal has no relation to whether God exists or not.

It is interesting to note that historically challenging
the Christian faith was mostly the work of non-atheists.
Progression of Civilization in the Western(Christian) world
was in many ways a history of secularization. Most of the
prominent freethinkers in this history like John Locke, Voltaire and Thomas Paine who were actually non-atheists
have done the job of weakening the influence of the
Christian faith. Now the remaining work that needs to be
done for civilization to advance further is up to the
atheists to accomplish.

The question I have for those who seek to challenge the existence of God is why even bother? Is believing in God or being strong of faith really such a bad thing? How does it advance society to try and prove God doesn't exist?

1.) I can only speak for myself but the reason for challenging the existence of God is that to those of us that don't have a religion the existence of any god doesn't make sense. It's about knowing the truth. If god does exist where did he come from? Why doesn't he make his presence known? As the story goes he did a lot of work creating everything yet hasn't done anything since now that there are intelligent beings to observe or question it. If a god exists why doesn't he have any compassion for the good or innocent while enabling rapists, child molesters, and mass shooters. Valid questions I think if you are trying to convince me of the existence of a god and if that god is even worth being respected.
2.) No I don't see religion as a bad thing necessarily. As far as I'm aware most major religions have the same major message in "don't be a bad person". Of course that is just common sense too so I don't think a religion is required to teach these values.
3.) Again it's about finding out what's really going on. We will never be able to prove that some god does't exist, but there has never been proof that one does either.

I love three girls at once, if I fall asleep they got each other to talk to.

Rodney saved Robert Downey Jr from himself. While he was doing time for his drug offenses, RDJ got a visit from a frail Rodney. the Legendary comic verbally tore him a new asshole for wasting his talent. RDJ recounts that he went back to his cell and wept uncontrollably. RDJ got his life together and was recently pardoned by Governor Jerry Brown for his drug convictions, it was his breaking perole that sent him to prison.

 

[dirkd101]

There is no such thing as God.

The existence of such a being is akin to corporate greed.
