Finally, someone in my shoes. Ignorance is really bliss, knowledge bring so many unanswerable questions up. Sometimes i just pray for a validation, anything, but the bad thing is you can't get out of this phase till you find answers. Agnosticism unlike atheism is not a religious standpoint, rather a knowledge standpoint, it's not even like you're sitting on the fence either, you just want these things to validate itself, It is well brother. 2 Likes 1 Share |

ucee64: fourth time quoting you and I'm still not dead, why hasn't that your god struck me dead already like you said? . pray more to your god, pray harder . “If Yahweh is the one true God, maybe he is thinking, or busy, or traveling! Maybe he is sleeping so you will have to wake him" |

iamDiabolic: Bro, there's something greater than us, look at the universe and observe. these things couldn't have happened by themselves, there's something behind them, whatever we choose to call it, god or not, there's something there, though he's not the nonsense they told us he's. if I'm wrong, and he's what they said then I'm proudly a REBEL. 1 Like 1 Share |

Pdizzle: surely ignorance is, but knowledge is power and power comes with many thorns. That is the nature of all things, the more you know the more you find out you don't know and the more things needing to know becomes clearer
Agnosticism is broadly atheism because for one to agree the existence of God(s) is unknown or cannot be know, it is evidently clear that such a person do not believe the existence of God(s) already tendered from different cultures and theologies. that is surely the atheist position... 2 Likes 1 Share |

blackjack21: This begs the question "Is there something else greater than that thing?" because if you think there must be 'something' behind every existence then that 'something' must also need another 'something' Yes?

eflintsone: I'll answer yours then . I don't know who created me, I don't even know if I was created, unlike you religious people, we don't fill every knowledge gap with the supernatural . I'm sure you "know for sure" your god created me and the earth and your reason must be that too humans and earth are too complex not to have been created by a supernatural being . if i accept this as true, who created your God? someone who created complex earth has to have a creator too since he's more complex than earth or man . if you say god created himself (which I expect you to say); if god can create himself, earth can create itself 3 Likes 1 Share |

I wonder how anybody can claim to be educated, and at one point or the other, never questioned religion. That is what i define as illiteracy. Religion is like a man trying to get into the pants of a woman. He will tell her everything she needs to hear and make promises. Of course, we know that is what the people that brought religion did. Gave us stories that seem sweeter than the ones we knew. Adam and eve, Moses and the river, Noah and the ark. There was no way that wouldn't sway any simple mind. Also, the fact that hell is exclusive to a certain religion is a slap on one's sanity. Why did God create Muslims, Buddhists if he knew they were going to end in hell fire? Why didn't he just make us all Christians? I am not an atheist, I am too unsophisticated to be. I am just someone who has chosen to use my brain. Sometimes we just need to fill our washed brains with some "dirt". QUESTION WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN MADE TO BELIEVE. Was it God's plan to have us colonised before we were exposed to the proper religion? Why did God allow that much inhumanity on Blacks by the whites. Are we the inferior? If as a christian, you make it to heaven, and i do not, would you be pleased to watch me just burn away? Would God, being all loving, be able to bear the suffering on his Children? Isn't just being an unbeliever for less than a 100 years a sin too simple for me to burn for a million years?

I don't see any reason why you people should waste time in refuting the existence of God, if you don't believe in His believe system, stop criticising Islam and Christianity. Good enough you don't live in Saudi Arabia or Pakistan where you would have been put on death row for this post. Engage yourselves in productive affairs because God exists even if you reject and deny him. 1 Like 1 Share |

babe4wealth:Religion is bad but the religion we practice in Nigeria is the worst. The pastors know the truth that's why they have dedicated their time to enslaving people and defrauding them of their hard earned money. I havr heard pastors curing people of ambigious illness like HIv, cancer etc but i have never heard Oyedepo, Oyakhilome, adeboye cure a man without hands or legs. Have you witnessed your fraudulent Nigerian pastor help a man grow back his legs or hands with the power of jesus christ? |

iamDiabolic:My dear, the Foundation of the LORD standeth sure.. Those who believe in HIM still experience HIS Wonderful works in their daily lives.. Everyone has a choice in this world.. You are either for HIM or against HIM.. That u want to be against HIM won't make our GOD less powerful.. The way u sound, it's like u've already made up ur mind to go ur way without HIM. I would advice u to ask JESUS to give u peace of mind and reveal HIMSELF to you, that's if u still have HIM at heart, but u must not take HIM for granted.. Pls, don't turn your back against HIM 1 Like |

My little contribution, a quote by a pretty ordinary person on a forum I read some years ago: "Belief in [Religion] is a matter of faith, not science. For the believer, evidence is irrelevant. For the scientist or skeptic trying to talk to a believer, discussion is futile." - Patrick Snyder So, no need. The believer isn't interested in a true discussion. He only wants to win 1 Like |

Enough comments to answer you already. But I must talk my own... The Bible says the fool says in his heart there is no God. I was once like you, until I encounter Jesus Christ 12:00 midnight ikeja Bridge, close to computer village. Thank you Lord Jesus, my story changed since that encounter and I'm a living testimony. 1 Like 1 Share |

brimoknight: I am not suprise that an answer such as this is given. Being reasonable is now considered blasphemous. If God punishes him for this, it's another reason not to serve Him. Who would do obeisance to a God who proves Himself by hurting people? |
Re: I Wonder If There Is A God by tchaik(m): 6:18pm On Jul 01, 2016 |
Laugh wan kill me here. @OP ignore all these religious nutters and follow your heart. By the way, try and read this book: Superstition in All Ages by Jean Meslier ; you will get a clearer picture of religion and the purpose it serves. By the way, how do you feel to be finally free from indoctrination? Your human default format is now about to run. |

iamDiabolic: Only Jehovah's witnesses say what the bible really say. Others claim to preach the bible but they add human doctrines to it. For example the Catholic Church say they stand on "the bible and the church tradition". So you can imagine. But Jehovah's witnesses believe, just as the bible says, that "all scriptures is inspired of God... So that the man of God will be COMPLETE and FULLY EQUIPPED" (2 Timothy 3:16). So we don't need any other tradition. That's why we are able to verify that the bible doesn't teach hellfire. In fact it doesn't even teach that there is something that exist outside of humans when they die. Rather it promises that dead humans will be ressurected from grave. Which means that they are in the grave NOT HELLFIRE. |
