Now I have a personal question. Based on your own personal belief, is there much evidence to support the idea that I would go to hell and remain there forever in my situation even though my lack of belief in God was genuine and honest?
There is also science that disagrees which would be the skeptics. Even if skeptics cannot explain these things, that does not mean that this is evidence of God. To think so would be the famous God of the Gaps argument fallacy.
What an open mind does here is it looks at all the claimed evidence and arguments with an attitude that is completely open to it as a possibility, but doesn't reject it simply because the person doesn't want it to be true. That is all an open mind does. That is what I have done the whole way...
At this point, I have researched all I could and have grown tired and lost complete interest because I have a composing dream that I want to live for. That is my life's goal and dream. My life's goal and dream is not to waste my life searching for the truth that I probably will still remain...
You claim that Christianity and the Christian God being real is as obvious as the Earth being a sphere, but I am not seeing that. Take note that I have really kept an open mind to the skeptics and have really read into what they had to say. I have read into what the skeptics had to say about...
Why do you claim that I am going by feelings? I am not. I am going by my own honest and genuine mindset. There are many different types of facts out there. But deciding what is actually true is not an easy task. Truth seeking is a very difficult endeavor and I have tried to seek the truth...
I have already looked into all the information out there, but I have to remain undecided and it is my final and honest mindset. I will point out here again that just because something sounds very plausible and just because everything seems to add up to there being a Christian God and Jesus or...
Most the deities (gods and goddesses) out there in religions demand that you serve them, obey them, or go to hell. Their moral standards are horrible in my opinion. The light that envelops these types of gods and goddesses is, therefore, a deceiving light not one of love, justice, and moral...
If you wish to reply to my previous post I just made to you, then you are free to do so anytime and carry on this debate with me. I think you might of skipped and missed that previous post of mine.
Alright, so what makes me any different than those little children who obtain salvation and aren't held accountable? I should not be held accountable either since my lack of conviction is genuine and I did my very best to seek the truth, but have to remain undecided. I should not be put to...
So based on what you've explained, I am wicked and evil for just living to be happy and to enjoy my life despite the fact that I am a kind person who doesn't harm and torture others? So I am wrong in saying that there are other ways to be morally right and to have a loving relationship? You...
I am angry because I am open to those other Christians who would say that I would go to hell in my hopeless situation in which there is no way to convince me of God's existence. I know that I am not fooling myself. I have tried my very best and have honestly looked at all the claimed evidence...
When you say that I claim to know God's opinion on the matter and have no idea, then are you referring to what I said in regards to me going to hell and God never getting me out? So are you implying here that this is not the teaching here and that I am wrong about that?
If you are instead...
The everyday signs that we see such as, for example, the number '666' popping up in our daily lives is not evidence because that could just be a coincidence. But the signs I've mentioned that would really leave me an open mind towards the Christian God is what I've mentioned before with my...
I never said they are delusional or lying. I said that I am open to the possibility that they are telling the truth as well as the possibility that it is all not true and has a natural explanation. I just think you need to keep an open mind to the skeptics and give them more and more of a...
What would convince me is if I kept on getting strange and bizarre signs in my personal life that there is no way to explain in naturalistic terms such as if my pillow spontaneously filled up with blood. It would not prove to me the Christian God is real because it could be Satan or some bad...
I hope I am answering your questions now here in this very post. I thought I did in my previous post, but I guess I didn't. So I will answer here by saying that other religious beliefs will also have their claimed miracles, evidence, etc. and it all seems very plausible, but that does not make...
In terms of the evidence, my decision has been final on that before I even had this debate. It is undecidable to me since I have an open mind the whole way through when it comes to looking at the claimed evidence by skeptics and believers. But what I am arguing and debating here is the moral...
