THEREFORE THIS GREATER BEING MUST BE YAHWEH, THE GOD OF YOUR PARENTS PARENTS THAT WAS FORCED ON THEM BY THE SLAVE MASTERS FROM EUROPE.. HAHAHA

No religion was forced on anyone. If the Arabs forced it on our fore fathers, what about the Europeans and Americans? Are they not intelligent? Who forced it on them too? My brother, the TRUE GOD, YAHWEH, IS UNIVERSAL. IT IS LIKE THE AIR WE BREATHE.

God bless Germany.
Germany was practically a blessing to the world in the 17th, 18th, 19th to mid 20th Century.
Almost 50% of world renowned physicists, chemists and biologists were Germans.

The first and Second WW destroyed Germany.




If the first and Second WW destroyed Germany, then what destroyed Nigeria because I'm sure Germany is much much alive than Nigeria

Einstein believed in God. "God does not play dice" was his quote while researching a phenomenon called Quantum Entanglement.

This is probably fake or was his beliefs in his early years in scientific research.
it wasn't fake nor was is believe in his early years.

Einesten actually reject abrahimic concept of God.
He is pandist( a kind of Spinoza ideaology)it a notion of "God" that differs from Atheism only at the semantic level, yet it could be regarded as a form of Theism.

Some Einstein quotes regarding his ideology

“The idea of a personal God is quite alien to me and seems even naïve.”

“It seems to me that the idea of a personal God is an anthropological concept which I cannot take seriously. I feel also not able to imagine some will or goal outside the human sphere. My views are near those of Spinoza: admiration for the beauty of and belief in the logical simplicity of the order which we can grasp humbly and only imperfectly. I believe that we have to content ourselves with our imperfect knowledge and understanding and treat values and moral obligations as a purely human problem—the most important of all human problems.”

You too can deny the existence of God and that won't stop Him from being God... I observed you're ignorant and people of your type always think that scriptures on Holy Books were tales written by one historian but it'll be clear until when you enter grave that there's God.
why avoiding the question?
And you call me the ignorant one.

Jesus was a bastard. Still is... Thats why on the cross he screamed "Father, father, why have you forsaken me"?

Virgin Mary was not a virgin. Just like the Bible is not a Good Book.

There is nothing special about Atheism. . Animals might be irreligious. Religion is what makes us different from them.

Humans are born Atheists in my opinion.
Cultures probably became religious from experience of the supernatural. True Religion is a rule from our Creator to keep humans responsible, disciplined and civilized..

be prepared to ask God this questions in hell if you don't repent now. John 3 vs 16 will do for a start, after that you should read Act 4 vs 12. thanks and God bless you, I honestly think reading Romans 1 vs 16_22 will change your mentality. stay blessed.

The problem with humans like you is that you think that thing you house in your skull called a brain can explain and understand everything. That is just the problem. The day you accept your brain has a limitation in power and understanding is the day you will stop asking that question. To human understanding, everything in existence must have a beginning. But this law may not be the same outside the universe we exist. Things are not the way the are just because we see it that way.
hypocrisy ,you lot want us to believe that it's not possible that the world came in to existence by chance but still want us to believe that your God, who you claim crated us all can't be explained. I say just as you can not comprehend the creation of God, But want us to believe that is how you cant explain the creation of this world by chance. So I prefer that we say ,the origin of everything is not known yet . That will be better than all forms of unconfirmed premises that till confirmed are nothing but lies

I know the problem with you atheists. You guys are using the inconsistencies in the Bible as PROOF there is no God. I actually don't believe in the Bible but I believe there is a God and the evidence is in the intelligent organisation of things in the universe. Let's say the Bible is fake, but does it mean there is no creator? Have you really asked yourself this question?

Who created the creator?

Do you accept there is a limit to our understanding and intelligence? I guess the answer is YES. Our intelligence is enough to discern that the universe did not spring up by chance because of the numerous orderliness and perfect designs all around. But the issue of God's origin and every other thing about him is just beyond what the human mind can grasp.

When you see a strange phone on your desk you will know a human dropped it there but you don't know the person's identity. We know God's existence through his handwork seen all around. But we don't know his identity and where he came from.

Has it ever occurred to you that the reason why God's origins and some of his actions are hard to understand was because the Bibles were authored by men in the middle ages who had little scientific knowledge and didn't know how the world really worked?

Answer me this famous riddle: Can an all powerful and all capable God create a rock so heavy that he himself cannot lift it?

If he could not create a rock he can't lift, he cannot be an all capable God. If he could however, that would no longer make him all powerful.

Have fun with this dilemma.

That is objectively false. Religions and cults are formed so a select few people or a government can have full control over a given people with rules they set in place. It's why a majority of religions are occult like in nature.

Atheism is a religion to someone who hasn't logically critiqued creationism

Many of these peeps believe that they'd appear to be more intelligent and shrewd than the creationist once they simply say I'm an atheist (without having any "scrutinizable" findings to weigh their stance upon). They simply follow the bandwagon, and they are no different from the majority of the people who follow religious authorities. Both are "socially conditioned" by a fallacy called argumentum ad populum.

Okay, let me ask you two quick questions: "1.is Stephen Hawken an atheist", "2. What do you understand religion to mean?"

Let's leave the Bible alone. The Bible is what is causing all the confusion. Atheists feel because there are errors and unproven claims in the Bible it becomes the ultimate proof that there is no creator. When christians fail to explain these inconsistencies in the Bible the atheists feel like they have proven no God exists. If you want to know whether a God exists or not don't look at what the Bible says because the Bible may actually be fiction. Just grab a biology textbook and read. Then ask yourself if the things you read in the biology textbook are things that are collectively all happening by chance.

We need to accept we don't have the capacity to understand everything. Our intelligence and perception has a limit. God is just beyond our understanding. We haven't actually explained a lot happening on earth where we are living and we are trying to explain a God. That's ridiculous. We can't explain God because God is not even subject to the laws of the universe. The human mind can only explain things using the laws of the universe. The riddle you provided follows the laws of universe so it doesn't apply to God.
