How Do People Even Believe In Christianity When It Seems Like A Fairy Tale. by Neymar1095(m): 8:42pm On Dec 29, 2017
Christians claims an omniscient God created man and woman and put them in a Garden. He gave them everything but a sense of right and wrong. He planted a tree in the center of the garden and made it bear beautifully attractive fruit knowing (since he is all knowing) that they would eat it. And when they did just what he had planned (since he is omnipotent, and he gave them no sense of right and wrong) he was stunned. Never saw that coming. His whole wonderful plan was spoiled and he had to put a taint of original sin that they couldn't know was sin (they did not know good from evil) on them that would be passed down to their children throughout all the generations and he would have to torture all of them in eternal, unimaginable suffering, because he loves them all. But then he hatched a plan to send himself down to earth and impregnate a woman with himself so he could sacrifice himself to himself to take away the taint of sin caused when a talking snake convinced the woman to eat the magic fruit and give some to her man.


Swallow all that and you are left to deal with the fact that there were people living all around the Earth, but even though this God character LOVES all his children and wants them all to have a personal relationship with him, it somehow slipped his omniscient mind to announce anything about his grand plan to anyone living outside a tiny area around the Mediterranean Sea for centuries, so billions lived and died in far off lands never even hearing about this Jesus they must accept. And to make matters worse, instead of just showing up on Earth and revealing himself, his great plan to redeem us all was to hide so well he is totally undetectable. When something is entirely undetectable and we can't even measure its influence on other things, there is really no difference between its existence and non-existence.

The more i distanced myself from church the more i know God. In the quest of knowledge you will come to realize that God really do exist.

The only ridiculous thing is to believe that a human being as complex as you
Far more complex than any computer made
Occured by chance by random accident.....

Impossible, my dear cool
Probability of that happening is zero

If we are too complex to exist by accident, then surely God is also too complex to exist by accident.

Well I beg to differ. It's not foolish to question heresy and dogma.
It seems more foolish to believe and worship an unseen entity. It takes Faith to believe in God.

The scriptures says:


Foolishness is the issue of the cross to THOSE THAT WILL PERISH.

TO THOSE THAT ARE SAVED,.


IT IS THE POWER OF GOD.


The Op has chosen a path.

He should follow it.

As for me and my family,

Jesus is Lord.

It's madness to believe anything others don't.
A genius/scientist is mad until he can prove his hypothesis holds true and becomes a theory.
Believe it or not, its efficacy cannot be denied.

It doesn't make God less God, rather it shuts you the unbeliever from the limitless powers that abound in God.

And the only thing consistent in the bible is killing. FROM KILLING every living thing on the face of the earth other than Noah's family and thereby makes himself the greatest mass murderer in HISTORY TO NU 31:31-40 32,000 virgins are taken by the Israelites as booty. Thirty-two are set aside (to be sacrificed?) as a tribute for the Lord. etc. what a merciful and kind God.
