    Frustrated athiest asks why do you believe in God?

    That's a good question. It's easy to throw around terms like critical thinking, skepticism, scientific method, etc., but harder to define the process I use in real time. I'll have to get back to you with this one

    Frustrated athiest asks why do you believe in God?

    Have you not read the Bible?

    Frustrated athiest asks why do you believe in God?

    The Abrahamic God that 3.8 Billion people believe in does endorse those things. I can elaborate if you like.

    Frustrated athiest asks why do you believe in God?

    I'm more interested in why people believe in the Abrahamic God of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Randomness? That which has no pattern I guess. Any pattern observed would be perspective bias or coincidental. Energy are forces like electromagnetic, gravitational, nuclear, others we may not...

    Frustrated athiest asks why do you believe in God?

    I didn't think I had to explicitly say I am open to hear your reasons, since I was the one who asked the question. Maybe I should explain why I care what others believe. I think some religious practices are immoral, destructive, wicked.. etc. I think we should use knowledge from the 21st...

    Frustrated athiest asks why do you believe in God?

    Summary: Why do you believe in God? What do you find to be the most compelling evidence that God exists? Long Version: I have found that I am getting frustrated at the thought of people who do not listen to reason, logic, evidence, and facts. You may have noticed this frustration seeping into...

    Those who don't enjoin truth deserve hell forever.

    Sorry if you have already said this, but can you explain "truth"?

    What do you gain from criticism of a religious teaching you do not follow or believe in?

    Well that's a bummer, I thought Lennon was funny

    What do you gain from criticism of a religious teaching you do not follow or believe in?

    Lol that's hilarious. Best John Lennon quote ever: Reporter: "do you think Ringo Star is the best drummer in the world? Lennon: "Ringo isn't even the best drummer in The Beatles"

    The term "religion of peace"

    Doublespeak

    The truth, the path to God

    So love God + love your neighbor as yourself = saved, go to heaven Couple things, It's nice you are offering this to all religions, but Mathew certainly wasn't. He is saying love the Christian God, to hell with the rest of you. I'm not a big fan of compulsory love. It kind of takes the whole...

    Quran Scientific Miracles.

    Wouldn't it be more impressive if the Qur'an gave humans new information or insight into anything scientific? Science does all the leg work making new discoveries and then religion says "this proves God exists because the discovery was prophesied with this obscure ambiguous verse" I have yet...

    The truth, the path to God

    What do you mean by "saved"?

    Quran Challenge

    I expected more from Link. So your proof of devine authorship is eloquence, structure and musical preference? Verses in the Qur'an are organized by descending size, which is arguably the worst way to organize a book

    Islam-Do you have any questions? Please no Athiestic Arguments

    Similar question, what is the promise of paradise like to women? Is it described in the Qur'an?

    My first post

    I'm not, I'm talking about Muhammad, the perfect human, and the all-knowing, all-powerful Allah. The Qur'an is supposed to transcend time and be as relevant today as in the 7th century or 1000 years from now. Muhammad and Allah said having sex with children is okay. That's final. I think...

    Scientific Falsification of the Theory of Evolution (ToE) and

    Found this after my last post. For those ,like me, who did/do not know about abiogenesis. Pretty cool!

    My first post

    That video was 50 scientific mistakes in the Quran, but I'd like to bring up something else. Muhammad started having sex with one of his wives when she was only 9 years old, by Allah's grace. On The Prophet Muhammad podcast, I've heard the following explanations - it was okay to have sex with...

    Scientific Falsification of the Theory of Evolution (ToE) and

    It's all explained in organic chemistry. I'm not an expert but basically it's Carbon's ability to form complex chains of molecules. Life starts when these molecules form something that is able to collect energy from the sun (or another source of energy). Then there is a series of links between...

    Fix to Theory of Evolution

    Think of a tree that has a massive trunk, then look up and the trunk splits into two, and then four, then eight, then 16, and so forth. Each time there is a split, the branch can change colour just a tiny bit, or stay the same colour. Apply that to 1000 splits and the branches at the end will be...
