atheism is nt a religion. bt a disbelieve in d existence of any deity or religion

Atheism is the religion where "Self" is the god and hence no code of conduct.

Got no time today for "Is there God" argument pal. Just run with whatever you wanna run with okay. That's your problem not mine.

hopefulLandlord:
hsbshThis is fallacy of false equivalence

Doctors and scientists don't claim to be omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient and omnibelevolent like you Christians claim, if they were believe me No one would be sick, now try again

Not only must your god bear the blame for hell, he must bear the blame for every evil act in the history of the world since as an all-knowing and all-powerful being he would have seen every evil act that men would ever do before he even created the world. And in seeing that it would be like this and no other way unless he created it in a different manner, he, of his own free will created it knowing full well all the evil that would ever be done. Of course believers will say no, no, no, and fall back on the old and lame "he gave man free will" defense which is the most pathetic excuse in the history of the world since it's obvious that what their God failed to give us to go along with the free will is better judgment. Instead he made us one step above chimpanzees but seems to expect us to behave like angels; the good ones, not the ones that rebelled so they could bed the daughters of men. Now there's a story for ya. he created man sick then commanded them to be well

Christianity created its own problems.

No religion is as confused on its deities as christianity.

1. God is one. No, god is 3. But in the beginning there was only one.

2. god is omnipotent, but he needed 6 days to create the universe, and needed a whole day to rest his frail mortal husk as he was winded from all that awesome creatin'.

3. Jesus is god. No jesus is the son of god.

4. god sent his only (mis)begotten son to die, even though god is jesus, and jesus knew about god's (his?) plan to get crucified on earth. But hold on, why is jesus, who's also god (remember?) wailing for god to save him when the romans were closing in?
"eli eli lama sabachthani "

5. jesus prayed to god and says god is his father. But you don't pray to god, oh no. You pray to jesus. Cause jesus is god. But god is also jesus' father. And the holy spirit is also god. But jesus is not the holy spirit. And the holy spirit is not god's son. Who made the holy spirit again? And was it a duet before jesus was born by mortal mary?
Everyone would avoid this comment like a plague, just observe.

Damn.

Christianity is just a massive mindfuck.

Even buddhists and idol worshippers have straightened out their deities' origin story.

sodsak:
Oh, Christ worshipers! We want an answer to our question from your wise.If the Lord was murdered by some people’s act…what sort of god is this?

We wonder! Was He pleased by what they did to Him? If yes,blessed be they..they achieved the pleasure of His But if He was discontented….this means their power subjugated His!!Was the whole entity left without a Sustainer… so who answered the prayers?

Were the heavens vacated…when He laid under the ground somewhere?Were all the worlds left without a God…to manage while His hands were nailed?Why did not the angles help Him when they heard him while he wailed?

How could the rods stand to bear the True Lord when He was fastened

And was Christ revived by himself…or the Reviver was another god?

What a sight it is!A grave that enclosed a god! What’s more weird is the belly that had Him in it!He stayed there for nine months in utter darkness…fed by blood!Then he got out of the womb as a small baby,weak and gaping to be breastfed!

He ate and drank, and did what that naturally resulted in Is this a god??!!

You misunderstand the bible which makes me assume you are an atheist or your church doesn't teach the word of God
Jesus is the SON of God and no their power did not subjugate his for it was the will of The father for his only begotten son to be crucified to pay the price for mankind. Jesus himself knew his mission on earth.
You say he drank and ate do you think it would've been normal to see a human being who doesn't eat or drink he had to behave normally to bring his message to those who needed it

Re: 12 Questions People Ask About The Christian Faith by obehi231(m): 9:37am On Jul 02, 2017

No doubt questions that has been relevant from time immemorial..... as a born again christian , i have found answers to these and any other doubts u may have concernin the christian faith. The answers are found in that book called the BIBLE, yes the BIBLE; most religion refer to it as that book, becos it contains the message of truth and has answers to all life questions, it will lead u to fellowship with the father which is his ultimate desire. It would be easier if u are a born again christian (A topic for anoda day), that is acceptin Jesus Christ the son of God as ur lord, this is becos after that, the father will send the holy spirit into ur life that will teach u all things.... he will help u understand the BIBLE. I don't want to dwell much on this so it will not seem as if i'm forcin christianity on anyone, so the answer to the questions is contained in the BIBLE. wherever u re, whatever religion u practice, study the BIBLE, and i pray God will help u understand.

ADEWUMIMichael:
When it comes to God and Christianity do you have questions? Nearly everyone does–believers and unbelievers alike. Have you ever wished for a concise, understandable response that will satisfy both the mind and the heart?

I do have questions, but I eventually get answers to my prayer, even the mind buggling ones

ADEWUMIMichael:
It is amazing how many times people ask questions that they think no one else has asked and certainly no one has ever answered.

Nothing to say on this

ADEWUMIMichael:
Here you will find the twelve questions most often asked about the Christian faith, and responses to each of them. There are three levels of answers: the return question (which helps get to the heart of the issue), a one-minute response (which is about all the time one has when discussing these questions with others) and, finally, a prolonged response (often with suggested sources if you want to go deeper on that issue).

I see no amswes here

ADEWUMIMichael:
1. How do you know there is a God?

Well, I would also ask, how do you know there is no God.

ADEWUMIMichael:
2. How can there be a God when there is so much evil and suffering in the world?

There are evils on earth because satan is the ruler of this world, and if we don't pray as rightful owners of the earth through Adam, God won't do anything. Man died and the evil is the result of mans death, Jesus came to give us life

ADEWUMIMichael:
3. How can you reconcile belief in God with science and especially evolution?

God recreated the earth after He destroyed it, Gen 1:28 said, be fruitful, multiply anf replenish, check out what replenish means, so God did that to the earth

ADEWUMIMichael:
4. How can you trust the Bible?

Jesus trusted the Bible and this was what Jesus preached, so if Jesus preach this Bible, evidently I trust it.

ADEWUMIMichael:
5. What about all the hypocrites in the church?

There was an hypocrite among the followers of Jesus, its not new

ADEWUMIMichael:
6. How do you reconcile God’s sovereignty with man’s freedom?

Gods sovereignty is expressed through man. God gave the earth to man and man is still the tenant on earth, until Adams rent expire

ADEWUMIMichael:
7. How can a loving God send people to Hell?

God does not delight in sending people to hell, hell is just the consequence of our action, Adam brought it upon all men, all men would perish if Jesus never came, like I said, its still part of the death that came upon man when he ate the fruit

ADEWUMIMichael:
8. How can any rational person believe in the Trinity?

Trinity is not biblical, but my idea of Trinity is, Union, three person in union, what one agrees on, all agrees on

ADEWUMIMichael:
9. How do Christians get off saying their religion is the only one?

Jesus is the way, expressly stated, the only way, no other way

ADEWUMIMichael:
10. Don’t all religions lead to the same God?

Not all roads leads to my house, some road leads you outside the city.

ADEWUMIMichael:
11. What about those who have never heard?

Our assignment is to preach, thanks to those who persecuted the church in historical Christianity

ADEWUMIMichael:
12. Isn’t everything relative?

Relative, I don't understand

reallifeboston.com/wordpress/resources/12-questions-people-ask-about-the-christian-faith/

Let's take them sequentially:
1. It's evident in created things
2. Evil and suffering are contingent. They're transient.
3. The 'how' that Evolutionism fails to explain, creationism explains. Thus both are saying similar things in different ways.
4. Because it's existential and contextual
5. The Church continues to strive towards perfection (It's both for saints and sinners)
6. Man's freedom removed from his creator is disguised bondage. Thus, the essence of man's freedom is in God's sovereignty.
7. We're created and given freewill; our failure to choose good isn't God's fault. The end result of such is hell.
8. It's a mystery, it's not within the province of rationalism but metaphysics (spiritualism)
9. Any Christian who says such is a fanatic. "Only one" is different from "Only true one. "
10. Can't argue that, haven't studied/practised every religion yet
11. Ignorance to an extent reduces the level of culpability
12. Apparently not! Some are but lack universal/objective validity
—My little opinion though.... Thanks!

Re: 12 Questions People Ask About The Christian Faith by isaaczik: 1:55pm On Jul 02, 2017

My brother i read your post and some feedback from some friends and i feel to make some things clear to you.

If you posted this for clarity and education sake, please take a little time to read through my feedback.

1. How do you know there is a God?:

Answer: If you look at the heaven rather sky you will see how high it is, it is like a roof over all the earth but there is no foundation or pillars holding it, does it marvel you? There is somebody that holds it, His name is God.

If you think of how you sleep and loose consciousness of the world but comes back at the right time the next day, does it marvel you? Is God that keeps your time to sleep and wake up.

When you pick the sand on the ground and try to look at it, what material it made of, but it grows every plant, does it marvel you? the maker is God?

Your environment will always convince you that there is God.

2. How can there be a God when there is so much evil and suffering in the world?

Answer: If you will think appropriately, you will believe me that evil is the work of man's disobedience to God's laws: God said seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and every other things will come your way, man disobeys Him by seeking other things forsaking righteousness. The blessings of God comes without sorrows while the disobedience to God gives satan chances to operate and torment men with evil and sorrows.

But 2 Peter 2 vs 9, says that God has reserved the ungodly for the day of Judgement to be punished, God's timing is different from ours.

3. How can you reconcile belief in God with science and especially evolution?
Answer:
Before Science and evolution come, the word of God has been in existence. Genesis said that the earth in upon the waters, science has concord that the earth in on the waters.
The Bible said that the word of God is holding the world and science has proved that the world is hanging on nothing but on the invisible word of God. Evolution itself is assumptions, hypotheses that has no prove.

4. How can you trust the Bible?
Answer:
