Isn't almost everything guesswork?

I am not guessing that there is God. I am 100% sure that there is God. Likewise billions of others accross the universe are very sure.

No. But the evidence that I've seen points to a random event.
The evidence I have seen also point that it not a random event and God actually created the world.

The distance from the sun to the earth actually varies. Besides, if there was an all-powerful god that wanted to create us then the distance from the sun to the earth is irrelevant, since he can create us under any conditions, right?

But you have it the other way around. The earth was not created for us to exist, we exist only because we developed in such a way that fits the earth. And there are billions of other planets out there, many of which could support life, and in fact they might.


The sun is presently detected to be circa 150,000,000km away from earth, yet they wanna claim there is no God because they cannot find Him...


When your measuring equipments can get close to a distance of 10km from the sun, then y'all can write a book on how there is no God, but until then, swerve aside and I am asking nicely smiley

Well, my God is the Almighty.
And if you don't believe then gather those who worship other God's and let have a contest to prove whose god is stronger.

Simple...

no need gathering the other worshipers just me and u... i wish we all could meet up. we will place one stone at the edge of a table and u will start praying for the stone to fall of the table which is evidently a very simple task for god...i and others will just seat down and watch u and others pray for the stone to fall. we will stay as long as it takes for u to pray down the stone...

l dont know much about the bible but i've read so many parts that l just couldnt relate with. more like its a jewish tribal god book.
l do have doubts on certain things in the Quran too but i've come to realise there is no perfect religion going by the way they are being preached and practice.
what i'm most certain about though is that we have a creator. its stupid trying to justify something came into being from nothing.
We cant breathe water but fishes do, petrol and water are both liquid but one extinguishes fire while another escalates it. so because humans cant live in extremely hot or cold planets doesnt mean creatures best suited for it cant survive there.
l wont even descend to debate on religion superiority. l will live and die a muslim but use the platform to worship my creator. l suggest you just know in your mind you are using whatever religion you found yourself born into to worship your creator only and be a good person.
Asking deep logical questions about religion would only confuse you.
The reason some intellectually deficit people wonder if there is a creator is because there is perfect order and sequence to all creature which makes it possible for man to understand the sequence and replicate or manipulate some of it. like our planet for instance, it was placed in a vacuum which enables it to be weightless in space and float with various earth fields or magnetic force preventing ocean water from falling out.
Organised religion only understands a small fraction of how awesome the creator is.
Dont bother nonentities in the scheme of things on their opinion of a creator existing. people get carried away and feel invincible when they have good health but all realise how insignificant and helpless we all are when afflicted with a terrible terminal sickness that wastes them away gradually. you will notice most if such people with carefree attitude allowing themselves to be taken to any church or mosque for prayers.

Is the calculated distance between the earth and the sun a guess work?
Are you aware that if the earth was closer or farther from the sun as it is presently,life will not exist on earth.
Don't you think it was a delibrate attempt by someone or something for the earth to be positioned where it is?
It's not by random that life does not exist on the other planets......whatever set up earth with life forms has chosen to leave the other planets without life forms for now.
.......sorry this is not for you honourhim....I wanted to quote.onetrack

Given enough chances (in this case multiple billions of planets), there is a very good chance that some of them would have conditions to support life. This distance is not calculated nor was the earth necessarily placed by anyone.

...................
Multiple billions of planets(in relation to chance).....If I equate that into mathematics and analyse it with probability,I bet you know the result would be very very minute.
As of now this other planet you talk about does not exist so why bother?

I would advice you to talk to a well knowledgeable Christian (Christian apologists) I would recommend the teachings of Ravi Zacharias. Could be that there are satisfying (to you anyways) answers to your questions but, you've been asking the wrong people. Maybe the unanswered questions you've been having about your religion are not seriously deep enough to make somebody lose their faith. Maybe you are just over reacting. For example, I don't even know why you skip prayers or don't pray at all... Could be because you want to have sex with a girl but, your christian conscience is telling you not to so you want to get rid of it so you could do whatever the hell you want.

Take it from me, being an Atheist DOESN'T make life easier, DOESN'T answer questions. As a matter of fact, it makes life much more complicated. Because you would have to go into science, evolution etc. and even then you would have to take somebody else's word for it, as YOU yourself might not have the equipment or the capacity to verify scientific facts.

Atheists are "side choosers" Christians see themselves as "life savers." Please be a christian. So-called freedom is irrational. It's for the good of all mankind for humans think of themselves as NOT free. We all know that we are going to die some day but, see how we are treating one another. Imagine a world without religion... It's Chaos. Anywway, that's another story.

I lost my faith... I'm NEVER gonna get it back and you know what that made me? Undermined (I'm not regretting though, I got good reasons (I'd like to think anyway) for my apostasy). I'm gonna have to research till I die, as I have questions NOBODY have answers to. Save yourself that torment. Faith is a gift. You are contemplating means you haven't lost it totally, Please DON'T.

Good luck.
