Re: Do you believe in God?

I am more agnostic than anything. I don't believe in any God as it has been presented in any of the religious ways but I hold to the possibility that God may exist.

One contradiction that annoys me is how a group says God is undefinable and not understandable in nature or process and that because of this the idea of his existence is unimpeachable and yet the very same people will bludgeon me with this book along with their thoughts and opinions of exactly what God meant to do, how he did it, and why we should live according to the way he wanted us to live. Contradiction seems more like true religion of many.

Seriously Navy.

This is just plain pathetic.

People are answering the question, if they don't believe in god they don't believe in god, doesn't matter who's asking the question, the answer remains the same.

Why do you have to pretend you're some victim here?

I noticed homosexuality isnt one of the 10 C. So it gets a pass from God?

I don't keep any holy day. And, although I do not hold any God or person above God, I also do not consider a higher power to be more important than my loved ones.

Besides those, it depends on the interpretation of each of the others. I feel that it is much worse to tell the truth in a certain limited number of situations than it could ever be to lie in that situation. Plus, what would be considered a lie? I believe some people deserve to be killed, depending on the justification. I think it is wrong to covet another person's possessions/spouse, but I don't think that this means that you can't think another person has something that you wouldn't mind having, just not that specific thing (not sure if that made sense or not). What is stealing? Is it stealing if one person or a small group of people claim to own everything or every resource in the place you live (city, state, country, planet)? What if they legally were able to earn everything there? Would a person trying to feed him/herself or their family be sinning by taking something that really should belong to everyone or at least be distributed more fairly? Since I'm pretty sure that not worshiping idols comes from earlier religious practices, it seems like a moot point to me. I don't raise any material possession or thing over my beliefs. Since I don't really know the name of the God I believe in, it's kinda hard to "take the Lord's name in vain". I'm pretty sure that my interpretation of adultery is different than yours, and we should leave it at that.
 
Re: Do you believe in God?

No, I don't believe that any god or gods exist(s).
 
Re: Do you believe in God?

Yes,

One of the Gods had to have light the wick that started the big bang.

Why is it not debatable?
 
Re: Do you believe in God?

I voted no, because I do not believe in the god you have shown you are referring to.

Re: Do you believe in God?

Yes, I do believe.

Did like a line from the Good Wife last episode I watched.

I guy asked a his lawyer if she believed in hell. The lawyer answered, no. The guy said neither do I, then I met a lawyer, and I changed my mind. (found it funny. It would not have been if he asked about heaven instead of hell. Just wouldn't seem to fit :lol:)
 
Re: Do you believe in God?

Niope, I'm not delusional. I actually care about what is factually, objectively true.

I used to compare myself to Jesus Christ quite a bit back in 1974. People used to tell me I was dead ringer.

man, I miss those sandals.
 
Re: Do you believe in God?

If he believes in Hell, he must not be Jewish....just saying....

I think there can be a Hell without a reciprocal Heaven. There can also be a Hell on Earth as well as Heaven right here in River City.

It is very convenient to have a place to blame for our selfish, greedy, hater side.

The Devil made me do it!

We aren't all inclined toward group-think, nor group-belief. I am an individualist, and my belief that the individual determines his own destiny, precludes me from believing anything whatsoever, just because the majority believes it. I may believe in God, but everyone's perception of what God may be, is different. If I say I believe in God, what difference does it really make to anyone else? My belief is not a measure of me. My actions are. My actions may be determined by my beliefs in part, but belief is not indicative of character.

Statistically speaking, those whom often participate on debate boards are more active and informed than the general populace.
 
Re: Do you believe in God?

I see 19 "yes" answers right now. Likely they refer to 19 different gods with radically different aspects.

I, of course, answer no.
