"And he swore by Him who lives forever and ever, who created the heavens and all that is in them, the earth and all that is in it, the sea and all that is in it and said "There will be no more delay." "

Young man this world is destined to pass away!

Reiyvinn:


I don't get it. God is Omniscient, right? Does that mean that God, who knew from the very beginning that things would turn out this, went on the create it all for the sake of it passing away?!?

Is God then Omni-benevolent (all-loving) by your definition?

Jesuspikin7:

What do you make of Genesis 6:6?

Yes he is

Reiyvinn:


Wow! So he had a plan for humans at first. He looked at them and said "They are good" only to later change his mind and regret ever creating them (contrary to his boast at Numbers 23:13). I hope he also regrets ever creating the Ebola Virus, HIV, and so on, too.

(So much for a God that is All-Knowing)



If only the writers of the Bible didn't have to be overzealous by adding Omniscience as part of his attributes, that would have been acceptable. Now that's the problem.

Ymodulus:
Bro the bible is flawed and just a story book. I can tell you categorically that the creation story is so flawed.

Reiyvinn:


Unless that. Because I can't seem to picture the existence of an All-Loving, All-Knowing and All-Everything God allowing himself to be lampooned by his very own word when it ought to be infallible and accurate. It's obvious that the Invention of God is a failed Hypothesis.

Ymodulus:


God itself is a scam

Hey man, God is not a scam, he's real.

It's religion that's a scam.

I used to be a deist, but I'm now a theist.

I, too, used to be an Atheist but I'm now a Theist.

I've found the true God.

He is the Flying Spaghetti Monster who alone should be worshiped. RAMEN!!

Go and learn how to discuss issues like this in a forum. Atheists like Kay17, Xcapists etc can help you out of your foolishness. For now you are just making a fool of yourself. When you want to discuss an issue concerning other people's belief you must be civil and respect those people's right of belief too.

herald9:


So Which of the gods are you patronizing now?

Reiyvinn:


Now you just got on my nerves. What was the "uncivil" statement I made in my comment? What? Do I call you dyslexic or just uninformed

What's you problem? He said he was once a Deist but is now a Theist and I said was also once an Atheist but now a Theist because I now worship the Flying Spaghetti Monster, anything rude with that? I'm happy for him. I was only telling my story.

And just in case your idocy or, to be fair, lemme say lack of exposure to information makes you think that I formed the religion out of the blues, Google "Pastafarianism" and see that the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is a Legalized religion.

Please don't spoil this thread with such foolish paranoia! Argh!

Mtchew please get out jor. If you want to vex that I believe in a God and not your bloodthirst, primitive and megalomaniac god, you're free to vex but accusing me of being uncivil by expressing it, you'd have to kiss my butt

sushieater:


Eh Bros, please pardon my ignorance but I think your comment is confusing. How did you come about the knowledge of God being a HE if not from the same RELIGION you're calling a scam?.

I thought that deism is a type of theism? Or did you mean to type "I'm now a monotheist(Christian, Muslim, Jew etc)"?.


@Op, i guess your question is for Christians but I'll answer from my little understanding of Christianity.
You need to understand that everything in nature has its purpose regardless of how we view it(good or bad). So it's safe to say that THEY ARE ALL GOOD TO HIM since he's the creator of everything there is and also he's like the master planner, right? so everything that exists is good for his plan(Whatever that is).

I hope that your next question is not going to be "what's the purposew of those viruses and bacteria? How are they good to us?" Cus if you ask that, I'll simply reply "Questions for the Gods" ;-) ;-).

But finally, you guys need to cut Christians some slack, They don't really have all the answers. It sometimes gets boring when you guys come up with trick questions like this just to mock or bash their belief.

shaggy007:


Yes my brother, I discovered God personally and not through religion.

By the way, religions, bibles, qurans, etc...

...all bu11$h1t.

God is in each and every one of us

You don't need anyone to tell you "this is the path to Christ", or some other bull.S Christians use to deceive themselves.

If you want to talk to God, just talk to Him like you're talking to someone in front of you.

No need for unnecessary formalities (sign of the cross [for catholics], bible reading, praise and worship, paying tithes..etc).

Those are all a very monumental SCAM.

sushieater:


Okay! So this your God that you discovered personally, does he have a name? Is he a God of any religion? How does one get to discover him? How did you get to know the gender? Is there any other proof of him apart from being in each and every one of us like You said?.

You call religions and their books bullshitt but sitting down and talking to yourself deceiving yourself that you're talking to God isn't?.

Oga, in as much as I understand few of the things you said about religion being a scam and all that, the alternative you're trying to present is no better off. No offence but it's bullshitt². I don't think you're in the position yet to call someone else's belief bullshitt when yours is no better off.

shaggy007:


No offense taken. Religion is B.S especially Islam that kills you if you ever plan to denounce.

Didn't you read the part where I said that God is in each and every one of us?

I discovered the God in me.

His name is "God", and not all those funny names the bible call him.

sushieater:


I did, so I should just take word of mouth as proof?. How is your proof any different from the religious books you're condemning?

You keep calling God a "he", how did you get to know God's gender?. Anyways, I noticed that you avoided some of my questions but it's all good though. To each his own

Op no vex, we don really derail your thread.

shaggy007:


My proof is different because I don't have to go to church every Sunday ir mosque every Friday to "worship", listen to the blasphemous "men of god" or pay useless tithes.

All SCAM!

I called God a He because I am male.

The God in me is a male.

The God in females should be a "she", if the female so wishes. It can also be a "He" to the female if she prefers it that way.

Your belief.
