Lol.
Surely, god can't be that dumb . shocked

But then, undecided god is usually as dumb, as smart or as schizophrenic as the mind that creates it.


Sure...the foolishness of God is greater than the wisdom of men 1Cor 1:25 cool

Let me put it in a simpler way.

As children, we are hoodwinked with the Tooth fairy, Santa Claus , as well as the big bad monster in our backyards, standing there to make sure we were good little boys and girls.

In adulthood, we simply substitute the Tooth fairy with another invisible entity we call god, Santa Claus for Jeezeus, and Satan for the big bad monster.

The funny thing is that we laugh at children for believing in the Tooth fairy, while we indulge in basically the same adoration of other invisible imaginary beings.
Exactly

I have been asking this question with no valuable answer.
If I am asked to believe in God.. What purpose will a believe in God serve in my life?
I will still hustle to make ends meet, work hard for my daily bread, f"*k my wife to get her pregnant and she would still go through the painful labour to have my child. Believing in a God will not stop me from dying from either accident or sickness.
Believing in a God does not make me abnormally better than my peers.
I don't really see what the hype is all about.

What are your reasons for questioning the relevance of God in our present world ?
This isn't an argument about if the world was created or not. Let's accept for the moment that the world has a creator and this creator is universally known as God.

Beyond being the agent responsible for creation, does he/it have any purpose beyond creation?

So it is you that has a purpose right?
I can see, and that is why you appear in the world and between maybe 50 to 100 years you will also disappear.

I don't expect you to love God, because a sinner will always love and crave for vanity.

Be claiming death has a birth right.

The devil can decieve but can not reward because he is not a rewarder.

Probably God is as relevant as we make Him.
I wonder how relevant are we to God?

My dear, your intelligence is way above this thread. An esteemed gentleman such as yourself shouldn't be gracing this thread with your brilliance. Go join intelligent people on other threads who discuss dead Jews and broken crosses.

Though i had written a book on infinite intelligence doesn't mean that i possess one.
Sometimes, what really qualifies humanity for eternity is not intelligence.

An average educated man is intelligent, but the dumbest saint will forever live.


I just love the idea of eternal life. This is because i am not satisfy with living and dying.

Every living soul will always aspire to live eternally.


Son of lucifer, no matter how much you try you cannot become the firstborn of the devil.

In Him you move, live and have your being. of course, He's relevant.

With the way you post, i still finds it difficult to differentiate you from an athiest.

If you really exist then how can you finds it very difficult to belief in spiritual existence.

Just let Oyedepo catch you.

You up for a holy 3some this weekend? me, you and virgin mary.

won't be her first time though. remember when she gangbanged by God and The Holy Spirit, then gave birth to Jesus. damn.. the Trinity of 3reesomes... shes a nasty bitch that lady...

You know why Jesus hung on the cross like a thief? because he stole your mind.

What did Jesus say to Mary Magdalene the prostitute? Behold, I come quickly..


Do you know the Virgin birth is the greatest lie ever told? ask E-LIE-jah..


If three nails were enough to kill your God, I wonder what chance he stands against missiles and nuclear weapons.

How many Easters would it take to resurrect your mind? To shed off your fear and step into the light of reason, logic and inquiry?

What happens to you when you open your mind to the Bible? You blow your brains out..

Why do you hate God? Because from from your question, i can deduce that you know he exists but have difficulties in relating with him.
Your deductions are unnecessary and not worth an ounce of my attention. Kindly answer the question if you can.

Sophistry from Paul. Made some sense to me when I was a Christian. Now it doesn't. It doesn't answer the question, only pretends to.
It's equivalent to saying God is everywhere and nowhere, the uncreated Creator, the foremost.

Sure. God is everywhere since every material thinhg is a manifestation of Him. God is nowhere see you can't access his realm of existence except he wills it though there's a slight possibility that quantum physics may prove me wrong.

I can answer the question which I know you already know the answer, so the question is in actual sense a rhetorical oone based on denial.

Actually I dont have a problem wit diz question, my ish is from d replies d question is getting.
.
Not every1 dat ask such à qtn is an athiest or non believer, somtymz even christians ask such qtn eventhough most tymz dey dont voice it out.
.
Eventhough d Op seem to have a preconcieved idea already abt God ...ur response to it should be substantially backed with reality and d scripture.., daz why i alwayz advice som "christians" not to always engagé in religious debate if You dont have dat scriptural prowess and mastery of how to interwine scriptures wit reality.
.
The reason for diz is dat the op might be adamant to every response u giv him, but not d op, there might be someone sitting on d fence reading d thread n also pondering on the same qtn asked by d op..so ur answers should be convincing enough not mind boggling...
