I'm so sorry. This was just so obnoxious.
Oh, also. Religion isn't wrong. Most of them, at least. Christianity for example, I think is a wonderful way for people to cope with. It also helps the poor, people in need - it's a great help and a shining light in this world of darkness, even though whatever thing it's based on is more than...
I genuinely expected this exact post.
Alright.
What you did just now was a claim. I can't prove you wrong because there's... nothing to 'prove'. Nothing to build on. You just said, "fam. god's real."
That's just arguing for the sake of arguing.
...What, even?
How do I deny my own existence if I'm not a part of a religious cult?
I exist. I know this. I exist -accidentally- like everyone else does. We're animals. Highly social animals. Are you one of those people who just 'haha, no' at Evolution?
God of the bible? ...Author of the bible, or the god -from- the bible?
God based on how others describe him, I suppose. I've never had any experiences with any god whatsoever. So it can't be that. Sure, as a kid I was gullible enough to look up into the sky when my grandfather died for a bit of...
Hecc. You explained it pretty well. It's a cultural and a psychological thing.
And I don't really know. There's so many gods to keep track of but the one I'm mainly referring to is the one the majority of christians believe in. And even then there's so many variants.
I don't know. It's a challenge. Everyone wants to believe that their life has a purpose, that they're created for something. But in reality, we're just animals who happened to grow this way on accident.
I'm trying to see if there's anyone who can change my mind about this, even with facts...
You said it yourself. I need to believe. It's a belief.
Anyway, God is a dick. A psychopath, almost. So, he made us. He made everything, right. He has absolute control of everything, all that is, and all that shall ever be.
Okay.
So, why would God also give innocent children horrible diseases...
No thanks. Plenty of plotholes to explore on the good ol' book o' religion.
Hell, Slaanesh is a god. Xom is a god. Tchernobog is a god, too. They're all gods.
Wonder why we aren't talking about the Flying Spaghetti Monster yet, I think that's an actual religion too.
Believing in God is a choice. And it's a trend. People don't believe in any gods because they know such a thing exist. They do it because others do, and their parents practiced this.
Now, why is it that, for example, Christian families who enforce religious acts like churchgoing, etc etc etc...
Also, a point to make. I'm not here to 'dismantle religion all by myself' or anything like that. I just want to have a debate with people who can, in theory, be seen as 'cultists'.
God? Anything supernatural. Like you imagine gods would be.
Real? It exists. Simple. Or has existed. Maybe God died? Or, at least, one of them.
Prove? Sorry to be rude here, but since there simply isn't any, this is going to be a hard thing to answer to. The only proof is 'suggestions' or...
A God*. If I imagined a God, going by christian terms, is a supernatural being with a cult following what's a lazy explanation for the creation of the universe. A 'higher power'. Pretty much that. A fool's tool used to 'gain hope' and whatnot.
Kinda reminds me of all the mythological creatures...
Wrong. Of course people can debate about something without the other party having any proof whatsoever. They're called 'fools'.
For example: I took LSD. LSD made me see into the fourth dimension and communicate with aliens. This is true because I experienced it. Aliens are real and third...
