No it isn't. Man has worshiped thousands of gods- your particular flavor is just one of them.

It's not rude, it's true. The god you believe in is just one of thousands mankind has believed in over the years.

So you think science is wrong and that we did not evolve from other ape/man like species?
Report as
No. I've felt God personally in my life. I've experienced his power, He's given my prophecy, felt His presence and spoken in unknown languages.

Okay so you think someone got pregnant and is still a virgin? Because that is impossible

I believe in an omnipotent deity. Why else did the Big Bang occur? Why is there life on this insignificant blue-green planet in an insignicant orbit around an insignificant star in the murky backwaters of the western spiral arm of the Milky Way Galaxy?

The Argument from Ignorance fallacy is a poor reason for belief. This fallacy, also known as the God of the Gaps, means your "god" gets smaller every time science advances.

Just because you don't understand how something works does not make the answer magic.

Not any of the man made ones, but as an atheist/agnostic one cannot say yes or no without the evidence needed to formulate a conclusion. The important thing is just to live your life with HER, Honor, Empathy, Respect for all things.

Yes! Because it's true. Regardless whether you believe or not. Like Phlorence said not small g god but the one and only true God He is God and His name is Jesus. God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

Nothing is impossible for God. You think out of your own human reasoning. God is far far far more intelligent than you. He spoke things into existance.

Open forum, kiddo. If you don't like people challenging your claims, perhaps you should find yourself a Christian forum where no one ever has different opinions and everyone is just a cheerleader for Jesus.

No, I am a cross between a humanist and an anamist. I believe in the big bang, the string theory, and evolution, but I also believe that everything living and non-living has an energy that never dies. It is recycled or reincarnated.

Not a god that has gender or shape and gets tired after 6 days and needs to rest. Not the god thy makes so much money but pays no taxes and its humble servants are covered in gold. Not the god who loves you but burns you for eternity if you don't love him. And definitely not a god that says there's only one door to eternal happiness.

wow really -___- no good evidence?..
Report as
Nope. None. Just a whole lot of logical fallacies and appeals to magic.
Report as
the evidence is all around you
Report as
"Look around" isn't evidence for anything except the fact that the world exists.

If you claim you have evidence you'll have to actually provide some and not just say it's there.
Report as
nobody has "physical evidence" if thats what your asking for, and if somebody does have video of God creating earth they'd be the richest person on the planet
Report as
all I'm sayin is looking at the sky, looking at the mountains, realizing all the miracles he's done for me in my life its crystal clear to me that God is real and not just some character in a book
Report as
In other words, you don't understand how science works therefore god. This is called the Argument from Ignorance or Personal Incredulity. Just because you don't understand how the world could exist without a god doesn't mean one does. It just means you don't understand.
Nothing about our world shows any evidence of needing supernatural help to get here, never mind your specific god.

Like I said- no evidence, just logical fallacies.
Report as
I've heard the whole big bang theory but its all just bs, everything in that whole theory would have to be do precise and nothings perfect so I find it very unlikely if that's really what your going to try and use to defend you statement
Report as
my challenge to you would be to pray to God, ask him for something or pray for someone but be realistic don't ask for a million dollars tomorrow bcuz that's just greedy, and I guarantee if you do, he'll answer to you.
Report as
Uh, no. You apparently don't understand the Big Bang, which is massively supported by evidence, at all. And apparently were also unaware it was first posited by a Catholic priest.

Again- the fact that you don't know how the world works is not evidence for the existence of a god, certainly not a specific god.

You claimed there was evidence. I'm still waiting.

Your ignorance of the topic doesn't make it untrue.

You have no education or training in the sciences- I'm fairly sure we know more about the subject than you do dear.

You dismissing evidence because you already decided your god must exist and be responsible is both ignorant and closed minded. Your resorting to cursing shows you have no argument either.

You have claimed good evidence exists, but provided none that your god or any other exists.

Commending him for sticking his fingers in his ears and saying"lalalala I can't hear you" is just sad.

It's quite typical of Christians to resort to this sort of insult and refusal to a Italy back up their claims when challenged.

thatoneguy97
Omg would you get over it? You need to accept the fact that people can believe what they believe without having evidence, I think you're the ignorant one here, and btw saying people are not educated is rude and disrespectful. Think about it. Also this is coming from a 15 year old.
Report as
Ah, children.

Look- he was the one with the lack of respect for others' beliefs.

I said why I don't believe in gods. He claimed there was in fact evidence, then failed to provide any. I could care less what you believe, but if you make claims you need to be able to back them up. That's how the world works.
Report as
And by definition you are uneducated on the topic. That's not rude it's a statement of fact, as is calling ignorance. Ignorance MEANS uneducated or lacking knowledge of a topic.
Report as
thatoneguy97
No. It's not, clearly you live on the moon or something. There is NO evidence that evolution is real. I don't care if you're a stupid scientist, I don't care what you have to say to me, but I know for a fact that I know the truth.
Report as
So sure of yourself, are you thatoneguy97? That's perfectly fine, I suppose. But, every time you make absolute statements like the ones above, you alert more and more people to your blinding ignorance of the very nature of the world and interpersonal relations with other human beings. So go ahead, read your bible, say your prayers. If and when you're ready to accept reality, all the rational-minded "stupid scientists" will be waiting to educate you about how the world works and how you can function in normal society.
Report as
The entire last 150 years of biology proves evolution kid. We've witnessed it. But you've just admitted you don't care if you're proven wrong, you'll just stick to your disproven beliefs. Sad really. Can't accept reality so you resort to sad little insults. Just proves you have no support for your claims.

And considering your tone, you're the one filled with disrespect here.
Report as
thanks thatoneguy97, I was signed out but anyways, if u don't believe in God I cant force you too, (I wish I could but I can't) I respect the fact that you've made your own decision just don't bash on us for believing in God
Report as
I wasn't. You claimed there was evidence, therefore you were asked to actually back up that claim. You couldn't. Showing that your argument was fallacious and incorrect isn't bashing you.

In fact, you two were the ones who resorted to insults and crude language. You're being a hypocrite here.
Report as
Not to mention you were the one who posted on my comment in the first place, with an insulting emoticon.
Report as
an insulting emoticon is that what this is about? wow & the evidence is everywhere but for whatever reason some people don't see it, I don't blame you, on fact I gave credit where credit was due, but no now this has gone all the way back to an "insulting emoticon" clearly this conversation has and is going nowhere so bye
Report as
Uh, no. You used insulting and crude language. The emoticon was just proof you're childish too.
There is no evidence. You keep claiming it yet can't back yourself up one bit. Run along. I don't have time to waste on people who make baseless claims they can't support.
Report as
I can't believe these people, Skepti!
Report as
I know. I'm rather hoping that since they're teenagers they'll grow out of it.

You can't just make claims you can't back up, expect people to believe those claims, then say someone pointing out the flaws in your claims is picking on you in the real world.
They kind of remind me of some of my students. The ones that don't study, don't pay attention in lecture, fail all their exams, then claim I'm mean because I won't let them retake the exams or get extra credit.
Report as
im actually a teenager on the younger side and i have to say skepti sounds a lot more reasonable and factual
Report as
that's because skepti is right! There is no proof god is real and there Is no evidence but if you look at science they can prove the Big Bang theory and they can prove evolution so to anyone that says god is real your argument is invalid
Report as
exactly, most people just refuse to see facts.

This was a fun thread to read. God did it!! Now shove head up rectum and ignore the factual evidence. LOL

Aside from the fact I do not believe in god, this is the third time this week this question had been asked. Scroll back a few days and look at their poll on the topic.

Belief in God of some kind is the common belief of 90 percent of the population. However, active worship of God is much less, with a third of the population of the United States involved in regular observance. If you include those who occasionally observe and those who believe but do not attend, it's approximately 50 percent of America.
