    Is it reasonable to believe in a 'loving, merciful' God?

    1) No. But A loving, merciful God would create disaster. Because my faith is Christ centric, also holding to the definition of a material God as opposed to a immaterial God as most trinitarian conceptualist would believe, I find myself holding to the NIV translation of 'evil' as "disaster" in...

    What we mean by "there is no evidence for theism"

    Thank you for organizing atheistic beliefs into one post, However, the questions that are ultimately more important to a theist is not Does God Exist? or Can God Exist? I think it wastes far too much time to try and dispute this subjectively drenched yes or no question. To a theist the answer...

    God wants different religions

    Difference does not equal conflict. Religion does not equal separation. God does not equal Chaos. Difference equals Opportunity. Religion equals Unity. God equals Freedom. If you don't see that now we will.

    Minors and beliefs

    I believe we are born with light. Our only real job on Earth is to eventually discover it for ourselves. Having a concern that you might influence that natural light with your personal beliefs says to me that you might think your beliefs harmful. If that is the case, than I think you should...

    Is it sin?

    Does anyone know the statistic of those who have committed a heinous crime and who have watched pornography basically their whole lives? Last time I check it was definitely in the 90's%. Now I know just because they correlate doesn't make pornography the cause, but I think when we evaluate sin...

    Arriving at a Theistic Belief

    Belief, in my opinion. is a creation each individual makes to have in their lives order out of chaos. If you are into mathematics, numbers, negatives, fractions, null sets, infinite series, are all concepts designed to make possible understandable properties of the world around us. In basic...

    That's great to hear, For me, I had always thought there had to be a beginning of time. My birth was a result of a generation that came from another generation and so on, could this go on forever? I learned that planets are born, and planets die, so it is safe to assume that this planet didn't...

    Are Humans created Monogamous?

    Sure. I refer to the animal behaviors based on their creation. A lot of it doesn't make sense what or why they behave certain ways and others do, yet humans were also given unique attributes that drove them to what we are today right? I am just curious if our marital connection coincides more to...

    Are Humans created Monogamous?

    I would agree with you. Women must have won a great deal to convince most men to monogamy, in a world socially dominated by men. Well at least in most parts of the world. I sometimes wonder who the first monogamist was in the world and what their reason would have been to only have one wife or...

    Welcome @greenboy21x! I'm on and off this forum, but I appreciate your sincerity and humility to open up. It is often pressuring to come into a store not knowing what to buy. Especially when you have every employee looking at your pockets for their next commission check. Haha I over...

    Are Humans created Monogamous?

    Hi RF, Of course there might just be something in the air as there are OPs already popping up around this issue, but I am curious to know from everyone's different religious background how they consider the creation of man in being monogamous. As background, I have been doing a lot of study...

    Why do you say" you have to prove your personal faith and beliefs"

    Although I believe every belief is precious and that there is not a good reason to fight against another about their differing beliefs, what I do have trouble accepting is when people dont care about what they believe. If I say I'm Catholic, and my whole contribution to Catholicism is going to...

    Can god

    What I am saying is God maintains his omnipotence, not because he can't lie. To say he has no capability of evil is faulty. God chooses just as any person can choose to do good or evil. Otherwise, He is merely a machine that automatically does good because of some programming. The scriptures are...

    Can god

    This is a paradox statement. Because God is able to lie, maintaining his omnipotence however, by so doing He will immediately cease to be God. So the action in itself can be done but the affect of the action completely changes who is performing the action. God cannot lie defines His Character...

    NEAT TRAPS

    These aren't called NEAT TRAPS for nothing. They can literally consume a whole evening if you let them. I dont like throwing out more hints but @The Hammer and I dont share the same type of puzzle.
