desireyou: I would ask why he kept his existence so secret and why he went to such great lenghts to prove he did not exist by allowing wars famines the killing of innocent people etc etc the list is endless.
there is no god, what do you say to nothing? - nothing?
nambia: i will tell him, it was unfair for me that he wouldnt let my in-laws understand that i really loved my husband.
I had inlaws too and they couldn't seem to understand that I loved my late husband too.But I just considered it to be their problem and not mine.I also came to realize that it wasn't really about me it was soley about THEM.
We dont claim that he does, its your claim so you need to prove it
In response to: How can you call God a "fictional character"?
see comment above
In response to: You do not know whether God exists or not.
see comment above again
In response to: Your 'assurance' is really just as hollow as you perceive a person's faith in God is foolish.
once more, see original point
In response to: Faith is defined as the belief in something that cannot be proven.
Yes
In response to: The point is, the existence of God cannot be proven or dis proven at this point, by anyone.
Yes, we have been trying to tell you this for centuries
In response to: I believe God is loving and gives us a free choice to believe in him or not.
But if we exercise that choice to disbelieve we face a supposed eternity of hellfire and torment
In response to: And if he appeared or proved his existence to you, that very act would take away your freedom to choose.
How much longer are we expected to wait? Till the powers that be solve the population problem with big bombs from Iran just in time for the rapture perhaps?
langleygirl: Lol .......... then you'd better learn to pray in an instant before you get zapped.
I think there was a Dilbert cartoon to that effect. Dilbert's boss falls out a window, and says: "Note to self: convert to Christianity before dying." Not sure I'm remembering that quite correctly, but that was the gist of it.
I won't meet God..........................or the Devil. Very simple. Hell is nothing more then the grave, which is the total absence of God and all that he created. That means no life. Nothing to say, nothing to be worried about. That's my opinion.
"I did the best I could with the knowledge and skills that I had at the time"
I try very hard to live by this standard, always do my best so I will know that come what may I cannot be held at fault, because I did everything in my power to do the right thing. :)
nicki_love: Firstly, my words to God would be... Thank you for never turning your back on me!
Secondly, it is very sad to see the responses here! Wow.. I never realised how many people hate God! I totally respect other people's views and beliefs or disbelief in this case.. it is just really surprising to my sometimes naive mind, to see the way other people think!
