Is God Really Needed? by cihofo: 9:40pm On Jun 25, 2020
What gap does God fill that highlights his presence?

Happiness?
There' millions of people who don't believe in a god but are happy

Love?
There are millions who feel love without any god

Purpose?
There are millions that have found purpose in their life in the absence of any god

What gap does God fill?

And if he doesn't fill any, then how is he needed

You obviously don't need him in your life, right? Why do you care if someone else does? undecided

Is life needed?. Do you want to live?.

If life is needed and you want to live, and God alone can give life, then God is the number one priority. If He takes away life,how can anybody achieve the things you listed above?.

God is too merciful, otherwise this kind of question will never arise.

How are you in the position to know that life comes from a supernatural force and not through natural occurrences?
Do you have access to some specialized knowledge that a man doesn't?

God said so, and I believe Him. He has given evidences and proofs which I believe to be true,if you don't believe them, it your decision.

The Onus is on you to prove Him wrong. The moment you can by natural occurrences stop death from happening to living things and you can replicate it, then I may have a change of believe

I am no longer affiliated to any religious group or concern with what they believe in. But I know from past experience and those of others too, that the believe in a God or gods certainly fills certain need in the life of true believers or deeply religious people.

Your level of involvement and the value placed in an activity, is what can actually bring happiness or love and not the activity itself .

So it doesn't matter whether God exist or not . What matters is what you're doing while believing in a God or gods. This can result in fulfilment for the religious person.

Is it possible to engage in religious activities or practices without believing in a God or something?

How can u say life comes from God when people are dying left right center.
This is exactly why the op is asking the need for God. If God is the giver of life why are people of all ages dying? Is he the one taking the life of all these people?

What do you mean by supernatural. In my opinion there is no supernatural, there is only the mysterious.

PEACE amongst his worshipers! Malachi 4:1-3 smiley

Happiness?
There' millions of people who don't believe in a god but are happy
If you are truly happy people living around you supposed to feel the happiness in you, that's why we talk with others to bring happiness into their lives. smiley

Love?
There are millions who feel love without any god
Nobody feels love when there is nowhere to share it, and if we try to share it there shouldn't be any need to fear your neighbour to the extent of building hall walls, iron gates and burglaries! embarassed

Purpose?
There are millions that have found purpose in their life in the absence of any god
There is no purpose if we just have to die after all the beautiful things we see, feel, taste and enjoy in life!

What gap does God fill?
And if he doesn't fill any, then how is he needed
His true worshipers knows the gap he fills as they can travel anywhere on this planet and feel at home in the midst of their fellow believers who treats them as blood relations simply because they're worshipers of the same God! smiley

I have never seen your god creating any life. All I see are people, animals and insects giving birth or multiplying in some way.

Simple, People kill people!

You guys do not know how Angry God is with you all for not listening to him, at all.

He said, Do not eat the fruit. I know One Idiot among us must eat the fruit and like Reed and all the other Antichrists here, they will convince others to join them to eat the fruit.

Yet, You expect God not to be Angry! That one don pass.

He gave Laws, do these things and have a better world. Again, Reed and others said "do we not have sense? We shall make our own laws and take care of everything".

Now you have made your laws and Nothing works rather all is Destroyed!

Do you expect Him, Who you Never listened to, to come and fix the problems you created for yourself?

And do you think He shall not be greatly Angry that you did not listen to Him and you do not listen to Him and you have rather done all the things He Hates, and You expect That He shall intervene in the Calamities you brought on yourself?

You must be crazy to think that He Would Ever intervene in this Shitty World!

The point is God Said, we believe! People said that God said, we believe!

The Question you should have asked is how do we know and why do we believe.

But since you did not ask it, then we would not answer it.
