Super-Buu-5 Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 @topicNo offense but I don't understand how u can worship a sexist, homophobic, pro-slavery, sadistic, murderer.Agreedand where's the proof that religion is true? A 2000 year old book that contradicts itself and tells me to love some guy that I've never met more than my family? That doesn't cut it. It's just a tool to control people and justify killing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Spy Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Im a muslim I think I can trust someone who believe in god more then someone who don't because the one who believe in god know that he will be judge for his actions... that is all !!!!

Darth_B Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Im a muslim I think I can trust someone who believe in god more then someone who don't because the one who believe in god know that he will be judge for his actions... that is all !!!!I personally dont believe in a god... I do think some people need to in order to go about there day and be it Jesus or yoda as long as its not hurting anyone thats up to them. I just think in a world like it is today if these Gods or God are real there would be even just the smallest bit of proof... Oh and as for being judged for actions? not believeing in a God dosen't mean you don't know right from wrong and I would like to think that anyone who did believe in a God and found out tomorrow that it wasn't real, That they too would know the difference and not go on a rampage cause they know that some God wasn't going to judge them.....

Dae314 Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 That case would depend on how the person in question defines their personal ethic. You can be an unethical atheist or you can be an ethical atheist . Most atheists I know aren't any more or less ethical than anyone else I know from other religions.

Even modern day science says that the Big Bang could've only taken place in presence of a highly concentrated energy source which is God. Without input energy there could never be any output. Only by accepting a huge source of energy(God) could Big Bang be really explained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vo0Do0 Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 I just wished christians would follow the teachings of christ but they don't. It's all fairy tales anyway but whatever gets you through your reality I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkester Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 I personally dont believe in God or any sort of "greater" diety. I only believe in stuff that can be proven by logic. But in my opinion, everyone can believe what they want just so long as they dont try to force their religion on anyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkester Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Religion is fine for people to believe in, as for some people it gives hope. People can believe in whatever they want, but as soon as you try to force that belief onto someone else, THEN its not okay.Straight out, I would say I'm atheist. But, like said in the 3rd something post, if God were to appear before me and prove that he was a God, then I would believe in him. I wouldn't worship him, but I would believe that he existed.I guess in that case I'm Agnostic (I think that's how you spell it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

defluo Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 I don't believe in God. I find it hard to get round the idea of an omnipotent being watching us as a personal plaything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanders Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 yes im one, i didnt believe in god since i was born no one told me anything even though they did i would raise a question that they could not answer AT ALL, all they told me is that it is just the way it is, i dont hate religion but curious about it, to be honest i always wondered why they believed in it and their reasons dont seem to convince me why they believesometimes i hang around them to see why until now im still observing them even my family...im more of a curious person of finding out why they chose the answer or an unknown question rather than believe-Live Curious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
† Anras Rune Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 I'm an atheist. Not agnostic, but atheist. That doesn't mean I hate religion, or that I would deny God if he chose to prove himself real to. It means that I don't believe in him. I'm not a negative atheist either (meaning a soft atheist) but I'm a positive one. I truly do no believe in god, of any shape or form. At least not in the sense of a deity. I believe that if anything is divine, its the goodness in some people's hearts, which I feel shouldn't be credited to a creator that is at the same time responsible for all the suffering of the world. Hence my atheism.I do like the spiritual religions such as Buddhism and Jainism. These beliefs do not contradict mine, so I gladly observe them and in some cases follow a few of their tenets. But other, more narrow minded religions that force itself on others I do not like. I've read most of the holy books, although I haven't finished the Gita or the Torah, and I find a great deal of them interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo1323 Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 I believe in a greater being than us, but don't believe in the Judeo-Chrisitian beleif system. I believe that This greater being doesn't care in whose name we are doing acts, as long as we are acting in a good manor. It only cares that you do not try to hurt others, and if you do accidentally, or to some extent deliberately hurt others, that if you attempt to make up for the wrong you have done, it will accept mistakes (to a certain extent). I do not think it is omnipotent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 When I was about 5 years old my mom would take me to church every saturday and even then i could not believe it. Its funny actually very funny. The golden rule pre-dates religion and its one of the reasons why as a species humans are so successful. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/wildlife/5373379/Animals-can-tell-right-from-wrong.html Stop reading right now and take a good look at your hand. What do you see? In that hand of yours is carbon and other elements made in the hearts of stars that exploded billions of years ago. At night I often hold my hand up to the sky and just fathom the very atoms within in me where made in the heavens somewhere every far away and have immense untold history. The truth is far more beautiful and amazing then an lie we can come up with because at the time we did not have the technology to understand rather to come to a conclusion from ignorance. We are as much apart of it as it is apart of us, to think otherwise is foolish and very dangerous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeeNiK Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 Definitely not an Atheist. However, I choose not to follow traditional religion.Therefore, I guess, what? Spiritual Agnosticism applies by default :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 I as a kid I had an imaginary friend and I used to think he went everywhere with me and I would talk to him, and that he could hear me and grant me wishes and stuff – then I grew up and stopped going to church.

coffeeNiK Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 I was christened as a Presbyterian at birth....then my family converted to Hinduism when I was 11. I'm 22 atm and my opinions on religion are a bit conflicted really. Touchy subject of course but I welcome an open debate about it. I believe in God....I believe in the Devil. I have a good understanding of morality....and I know what is expected of me (to an extent) in my life. I also am very aware when I do things that are not *good* ....if you could classify it as bad. Pretty much the core things that a religion will try to teach you. With that being said I feel no closer to Christianity, than Hinduism.

Alice Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 I do believe that there is a God, but I don't believe in religion. Thou, I think that everyone has a right to believe whatever they want as long as they don't shove their beliefs down someone else's throat in hopes of changing the minds some else.

Ultimomo Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Personally I think religion has good and bad. It can bring people together or tear them apart. It can kill people but can also give people the will to keep going. It causes war and violence, and peace and harmony. I'm a bit of a Christian agnostic if that makes any sense. I have Christian beliefs but at the same time i'm still a bit of a skeptic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
