muslims have special prayers that can last that long too. ATR has special rituals that can last days. I guess that makes their gods real too right? The longer you can exhibit madness, the better

oh yes. Devils like the people who created religions. Devils like moses the mass murderer, mohamed the marauder, hitler the acclaimed annointed of God... etc

One proof that God exist is your DNA. That structure that carries your Genes In the human cells. The way the DNA is is arranged shows that such cannot happen from random natural selection.

Another proof that God exist is our spirit. God made our spirit in his image and his likeness so when you observe things from the spiritual perspective you will understand that God exists

History has. Proved the existence of Spirits so there is a possibility that there is a spiritual world which behaves like ours. There must be a ruler of that world

Scientists are gradually close to proving that a God exist because there are some things that cannot be explained till now like how the human displays emotion such as love jealousy. And the casting of imaginations from our brain there must be something that makes all these possible

lol. Ok let me see where you are going. How do you expect someone who does not believe in God to believe in the devil? This really beats my imagination. Are the two characters not from the same source? How can i believe there is a batman character and not believe there is a Joker or Bane? How? Or believe there is an Harry Porter and not believe there are Death Eaters or Dementors? That your question was actually very dumb.

what is God? Define what you mean by God


[b] n monotheistic thought, God is conceived of as the Supreme Being and the principal object of faith.[3] The concept of God, as described by theologians, commonly includes the attributes of omniscience (all-knowing), omnipotence (unlimited power), omnipresence (present everywhere), and as having an eternal and necessary existence. Depending on one’s kind of theism, these attributes are used either in way of analogy, or in a literal sense as distinct properties of the God.

God is most often held to be incorporeal (immaterial).[3][4][5] Incorporeity and corporeity of God are related to conceptions of transcendence (being outside nature) and immanence (being in nature, in the world) of God, with positions of synthesis such as the "immanent transcendence".

Some religions describe God without reference to gender, while others use masculine terminology, using such terms as "Him" or "Father," and some religions (such as Judaism) attribute only a purely grammatical "gender" to God.[6]

God has been conceived as either personal or impersonal. In theism, God is the creator and sustainer of the universe, while in deism, God is the creator, but not the sustainer, of the universe. In pantheism, God is the universe itself. In atheism, God is not believed to exist. In agnosticism, the existence of God is deemed unknown or unknowable. God has also been conceived as the source of all moral obligation, and the "greatest conceivable existent".[3] Many notable philosophers have developed arguments for and against the existence of God.[7]

Monotheists refer to their gods using names prescribed by their respective religions, with some of these names referring to certain cultural ideas about their god's identity and attributes. In the ancient Egyptian era of Atenism, possibly the earliest recorded monotheistic religion, this deity was called Aten,[8] premised on being the one "true" Supreme Being and creator of the universe.[9] In the Hebrew Bible and Judaism, "He Who Is", "I Am that I Am", and the tetragrammaton YHWH (Hebrew: יהוה‎, traditionally interpreted as "I am who I am"; "He Who Exists" are used as names of God, while Yahweh and Jehovah are sometimes used in Christianity as vocalizations of YHWH. In the Christian doctrine of the Trinity, God, consubstantial in three persons, is called the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. In Judaism, it is common to refer to God by the titular names Elohim or Adonai. In Islam, the name Allah is used, while Muslims also have a multitude of titular names for God. In Hinduism, Brahman is often considered a monistic concept of God.[10] In Chinese religion, God (Shangdi) is conceived as the progenitor (first ancestor) of the universe, intrinsic to it and constantly ordaining it. Other religions have names for God, for instance, Baha in the Bahá'í Faith,[11] Waheguru in Sikhism,[12] and Ahura Mazda in Zoroastrianism.[13]

The many different conceptions of God, and competing claims as to God's characteristics, aims, and actions, have led to the development of ideas of omnitheism, pandeism,[14] or a perennial philosophy, which postulates that there is one underlying theological truth, of which all religions express a partial understanding, and as to which "the devout in the various great world religions are in fact worshipping that one God, but through different, overlapping concepts or mental images of Him."

So what really is God and which God are we talking about?

what voodoo? Voodoo aint real, just as magic are all tricks. Nothing supernatural about voodoo.

Give me examples of voodoos you know to be real. Lets start from there

is not about how long is about what will happen within that time. If you want to find God like this, you just want to prove something. That's not the way

hopefulLandlord:

well, some prayers are not answered that's why most people don't receive what they want. If the prayer is selfish, it will just sound gibberish in Gods hearing, that's some of the reason for unanswered prayer and maybe some of the prayer you did through your childhood. Who told you as a Christian obstacles, circumstances won't prevail, the church have failed in this aspect, meet me for more

Really? are you sure about this claim you just made?

History has. Proved the existence of Spirits so there is a possibility that there is a spiritual world which behaves like ours. There must be a ruler of that world

Can you tell how how history proved this because from where I stand history has disproven many spiritual claims of the past. even the holy bible of Jewish mythology said sicknesses are caused by demons and spirits but we now know better. History has been extinguishing spiritual claims by uncountable numbers. so many things people said spiritual superpowers were behind in the past have been unraveled and no spirits were found so I have no idea what history you're referring to in your claim sir
also There are atheists that believe in the spiritual but still call god ideas bullsheet. believing a particular "world" exists doesn't automatically mean any claims made about that world true. That one believes New York is real doesn't mean one must accept Spiderman is real. that one believes USA is real doesn't mean one must accept David Palmer and Jack Bauer are real

Scientists are gradually close to proving that a God exist because there are some things that cannot be explained till now like how the human displays emotion such as love jealousy. And the casting of imaginations from our brain there must be something that makes all these possible

Aren't you pulling a fallacy called "Argumentum ad Ignorantiam"?

What sense have you made on this thread? what input have you given so far?

i was once a christian and i know many christians. NOTHING happens when you pray. It is all in your head.

stories. Why do i call them stories. Bullet proof my ass.

Imagine the body gear policemen and the military use. Kevlar and other high impact absorbtion materials in use today, imagine they remain a mare hear-say like you voodoo... they are in use today and comapnies generate billions of dollars selling them annually around the world. Do you know why your bullet proof charm remains a story you guys share and it is not in vogue? Cos it does not work. Simple. If it works, it wont be a mystery. All mysteries or so called hidden knowledge are ALL lies! Everything that works from computer coding to nuclear power are all open to learn and apply the knowledge. Only fraudsters deal with mysteries.
