Do you believe in God?
I found an atheist commercial.
What do you think about this? |
I believe in God not religion...
|
I'm dyslexic. I believe in Dog.

See sig, once you explain this mystery to me, i'll swallow every word you'll say...
|
If there is a God as depicted in the Bible, he's an asshole. Look at all the death attributed to him.
The Flood The 10 Plagues Sodom and Gomorrah The the slaughter of the Canaanites. The Ark was a weapon of war. And so it goes on even toady. |
No.
I also don't believe in Santa, the tooth fairy, Zeus, Shaka Zulu, Buddha, and any other deity you may possibly think up. Is there energy in the universe which is more technologically advanced than us? Most likely so.. it'd be arrogant to think there isn't. And arrogance only gets you working as a manager at a call center and fucking fat girls... and reading the bible. |
There's no evidence to support a god.
On the other hand (although constantly evolving) plenty of evidence/rational theory to support scientific explanations. |
LOVED that video. Fucking LOVED that video. So spot on. Fuck... well said. Brilliantly well said. :thumbsup

he got ticket for hell :)
|
I believe in creative power beyond all the existence, it doesn't really matter how you would call it.
|
where there is god there is money.
|
No. I like the idea of a spirituality...
But without a 'God' figure to either congratulate or punish me... I guess thats why I am drawn towards Buddism... |

NO, I don't. :2 cents:

Yes ...

I still don't believe in God the way I didn't believe 20 years ago.
That is, I still think Jerry Falwel is full of it. On the other hand, after I humbly asked to see the truth, there came into my life a force, an energy, far beyond any human will. There is no believing or not believing for someone in my shoes - it is here. I can no more deny it than I can deny my own leg. There is something, something awesome, an incredible force or energy here as I write this. I am sure that this force is the same force which caused the miraculous experiences I had as a child. Historical descriptions suggest that the Isrealites and the Egyptians who separately recorded the Exodus may have been describing the same thing that I experience. That I don't know, but it seems to fit. What I know and couldn't deny if I wanted to is that this force or energy has been plainly obvious in my life for fifteen years. I now call this force "God". |
There is no god.

Yes, I believe in God, I will even go so far as to say I believe in the Christian God of the New Testament because... well from my socio-ethnic background that is the beliefs of my forefathers. However I came to realize years ago that I do not believe in the church and that those who cling hardest to calling themselves Christians have the least understanding of it's tenets.
IF the United States were truly a Christian nation who worshiped Jesus and followed his teachings the world would be considerably different. Christians in the US do not worship the Son of God, they worship the fruit of the fed, it is their tree of life and they are getting their reward now :2 cents: |

i dont believe in god solely due to the idea of hell.
the loving, forgiving, all wise god that religious people believe in would never eternally damn someone for something they do during a brief 70 year period on earth. i do believe in being good to people, i do believe in treating others as you would want to be treated yourself ,and i think that even if i am wrong about god, and there actually is a heaven / hell, i will still go to heaven just because i am good to other people, but i honestly think when the lights go out, they go out, and the real definition of heaven and hell is the way you remembered by those you leave behind |
I believe that god is faith, but faith is not god. I believe in faith.

I have a question for those without a specific belief in some kind of power other than gravity and electricity. Do you think that perhaps when Einstein, JFK, FDR, Lincoln, Gandhi, Mandela, MLK, Lech Walesa, Eleanor Roosevelt all the way down to Oprah say that they are all guided by God or "soul force" they might be on to something? Is it possible there is something to what all of these great leaders say?
For anyone who answers "no, they are stupid," is it arrogant to be so sure that you are so much more enlightened than Einstein, JFK, FDR, Lincoln, Gandhi, and MLK all put together"? When Oprah is asked the secret of her success and she replies "my team and Jesus ... glory to be God", do you really know THAT much more about the secrets of success than a lady who's earned billions, never mind the Indian man who liberated two countries barefoot? Is it possible there is something they see that you're missing, perhaps to due the Jerry Falwels of the world claiming the word "God"? |

Particularly given the Bible, which some claim to be the source of their belief in hell, says: "the penalty for sin is death" and "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies". Hmm, humans, who sin, die, the Bible says. Not "go to hell", but die. Given the scant references to such a hell in the Bible, it seems quite plausible that most of the biblical writers perhaps didn't believe in people going to hell either. If at least some authors of the Bible believed that humans, sinners, die, yet they believed in something they called God, that leaves open the possibility that you too could reject the idea of people going to hell while still accepting whatever sense you may have of some sort of God. I don't know for sure what different Biblical writers believed, of course, other than what they wrote. It just SEEMS that perhaps many of them didn't share the "burn in hell belief" and few wrote about it. For me, though, God does not equal hell. I know that daily I experience something I call God. I'm pretty sure Mallick isn't going to burn in hell, though he may have made his own. |
Brazilians only believe in Caipirinha

It's so funny that people desperately need a "grand pa" to explain everything we don't understand. We just don't know what it's all about PERIOD !
What the heck are we doing here, where we come from exactly, what's happening elsewhere etc... We are talking about billions and billions of years (life of the universe) so how can someone blatantly believe in something like that ? No questions ask. That's the way it is and that's all folks. Believe and shut the fuck up in way ? NO ONE knows the truth about ANYTHING. Again see sig. Once you figured this out, we'll see... |
Why yes, yes I do.
Mr Pheer, I don't care who you are...that's Funny!! :) |

If so , you must allow religious evidence to prove religious explanations.. There's plenty of evidence of a god.. explain nothing , turns into something ? I suppose it depends on how you perceive the word "god".. All organized religions i have ever seen can usually be proven wrong simply by timeline.. It doesn't mean there is no god , it just makes organized religions wrong. |

A knowledge of the existence of something we cannot penetrate, of the manifestations of the profoundest reason and the most radiant beauty - it is this knowledge and this emotion that constitute the truly religious attitude; in this sense, and in this alone, I am a deeply religious man. (Albert Einstein) I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it. (Albert Einstein, 1954) I believe in Spinoza's God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, not in a God who concerns himself with the fates and actions of human beings. (Albert Einstein) source http://www.spaceandmotion.com/albert...n-theology.htm |
Short answer, no.

This is a piss poor argument to say the least.. Plato didn't believe in the existence of North America (because he didn't know it existed) does that make us idiots or 'arrogant' for believing something different than him? Of course not. Believe what you want, there is no answer more correct than the others, but using "leaders" as your basis is truly nonsense. There are a handful of leaders in every nation over the course of history that didn't believe in a higher power or the church as well that doesn't give it any more or less credit either. |
