SeverusSnape:That's a valid point, so if you come across several ppl who tell you they had cancer and then one day it was miraculously removed would you believe. Give me one of those reasons |

uniklinkum: why are you cherry picking what I said? what about about the Christians too who were calling on God? why didn't he save them from the eventual death too? if I was an atheist you just won the argument for me because I could have just replied you saying "god doesn't exist by proof of your reply" by the way, I am a deist: I believe there is a God but I am not sold on the idea of religion. 1 Like |

iamDiabolic: Is either the atheism and atheist are set of reetards?? Why fear the non known.. thought y'all already thorough your research and investigation concluded ain't no he'll nor God.. in German the rest of toilet standard logic is called schieße. |

iamDiabolic:we're on a topic... stick to it. you're arguing about the actions of an entity you claim does not exist... you're faulting God. if you think he doesn't exist your points should be at the fact that he doesn't exist not on what you don't understand about him. |

Re: I Wonder If There Is A God by Nobody: 4:25pm On Jul 01, 2016 |
iamDiabolic:If you don't believe in the existence of the extra ordinary, some words used to describe them will never exist to you. I couldn't continue my previous post because it won't change a thing. Your background as a christian will affect you word. But your desire to prove you are right wont let you keep quite. |

richie9093: The probability that cancer patients would die is high?? I am not on about God saving Christians, atheist or Buddhist.. My argument here is that, why plead for mercy from a thing or an idealogy you deny it existence. They should have just stick to there guns and face death squarely. |

iamDiabolic: I have never seen God nor His angels; never seen either of Them in my dreams but I have felt His power and goodness.... That's all I needed to know He is here with me.... You don't go to church to praise Him but you want Him to be active in your life and visit you.... Come on, a girl that doesn't love you but only uses you to recharge her phone (and you know about this), will you continue being her mugu? Change your mindset and you will believe and even see Him |

iamDiabolic: iamDiabolic, when I saw "I don't need your preaching and bible verses", I wanted to refrain from quoting you, but then I saw "I've heard enough of that". Well iamDiabolic, you haven't heard shishi. And I mean shishi. All you have heard is hearsay. If you really want to hear from God personally, then go and arrange a meeting with a Jehovah's witness. After that you can then make your final conclusion. For instance you talked about hellfire. Well for what is worth, the bible doesn't teach there is hellfire. This is just a tip that you haven't heard the bible speak before. But only the artfully contrived false stories of Catholic and other religions is what you are imagining to be bible's teaching. |

Zafric:Stop stop... That sounds ridiculous Funny enough, If you made this statement a few years ago, The catholic church would have burnt you alive for blasphemy Its funny for Christians to try and explain the nonsense in the bible with proven scientific facts. |
Re: I Wonder If There Is A God by SeverusSnape(m): 4:30pm On Jul 01, 2016 |
Zafric:I may believe, And the last time I checked, Ailments can go naturally on rare occasions. I know Christians and Muslims who died of cancer and other little sicknesses. Weren't they faithful enough?... Didn't they serve their God diligently?? Reasons why I became an agnostic 1. Many things about religion didn't make sense to me. 2. I was born into Christianity, I didn't make that choice myself, If I had been born in the middle east, I most probably would have been a muslim. It not like it's my destiny to be a Christian. 3. Contradictions in the bible. 4. Atrocities in the world, Why is "our God" not doing anything about it??... Why ![]() 5. Hypocritical lifestyle of Christians and Muslims, and their religious leaders. Etc, Bros, The reasons are just too numerous, ain't gat the patience to type all. |

According to the philosopher William L. Rowe, "agnosticism is the view that human reason is incapable of providing sufficient rational grounds to justify either the belief that God exists or the belief that God does not exist.atheist act of disproving God Is to acknowledge the limitations of human perception.they themselves,can they explain why we are on earth that's why learning is continuous,just because you don't have the ability to discover something doesn't mean you should rule it out |
Re: I Wonder If There Is A God by peachespeaches: 4:31pm On Jul 01, 2016 |
Op, i used to be just like u. Born as a Christian and just went to church for the sake. Got into university and i knew i had my life in my hands(or so i taught ), went to church a number of times in my first year and that was it for me. Never went again. Lived my life the way i want, besides it was my life (i taught ). Had a dream of the existence of God in 400 level, but ignored it. It wasnt until my final year (500L), that it dawned on me, saw God's manifestation and he spoke to my heart and i believed him wholeheartedly. I still ask him why he chose to accept me, after all my wrongs. My dear, there is a difference between religion and Christianity. I am a Christian (a follower of Christ ). But the truth is whether u believe or not, IT DOESN'T CHANGE THE FACT THAT GOD EXISTS. 2 Likes |

iamDiabolic:while I as an atheist may not be 100% correct about the absence or non existence of God but I'm 500% the Christian/Islam definition of God is false and I have over a 100 proof. I asked myself, why should I thank someone for a help i didn't ask for? Why thank him for creating me? It's not as if I was screaming for him to create me So what's there to thank him for? For putting me in this crap world? God and religion is a fraud |

Re: I Wonder If There Is A God by Zafric(m): 4:33pm On Jul 01, 2016 |
iamDiabolic:Exactly most Nigerian Christians have made Christianity to be just about heaven and hell and the steps required to avoid the latter. The Gospel of Christ is love, and that's all there is to it. The Love of God towards man,the love of man towards God and the love of man towards man |

SeverusSnape: I do believe there is a God, power, force, creator, whatever you decide to call, him, her or it, mind you i am not a very religious person, not even been to church in months, but paying closer attention to our environment, the beauty of surise nd sunset, the trees nd flowers nd the important role they play, the birds, nd all other animals nd how they carry on their mundane existence without a care, the silence of the night, the beauty of the night sky lit up with stars nd moon, the oceans and its richness, the snow the rain, everything working in perfect harmony, everything interconnected, its almost as if everything on some level cant do without the other, try taking away the trees from the universe, or the seas or sun, even the sand, everything works in perfect harmony. How could there not be an ORIGINATOR, our major problem is our misunderstanding of the nature of God nd our relationship to him, many think he acts like some king and orders things on earth, an assumption i think is flawed, he has given us free will, we often misunderstand this concept, it means he hardly interferes,it is we who interfere nd change the course of events if we wish to, he only gives us the power to grant our wish, his wish for you is your wish for urself, ur wish for urself nd ur world comes from who you think you are nd what you are trying to do.Just as you have evil people responsible for the worlds destruction,darkness nd those who perpertuate evil in Gods name, so do you have people of light, who bring love, light, goodness and ease the suffering of others, these individuals conciously or unconciously are more evolved, its a question of who you think you are and who ur trying to be, many misunderstand who they are and r unable to connect to him because of numerous false teachings including from our so called religions, i think it is Gods will that we know who we truly are and the powers we posses nd work towards becoming that, in the highest form our soul which i believe is an extention of God is LOVE, nd the soul cannot experience itself as love until we show love to others, this is the process of becoming nd is just one example, i think Gods greatest wish is that we understand who we r nd our relationship to him in so doing experiencing ourselves as that by manifesting it here on earth, this i beleive is the soul work, the work of becoming... .. GOD , of becoming a life form of God here on earth nd spreading his light, love, abundance nd his grace nd easing the suffering of humanity. This is the true essence of free will, we may choose to become something order than what we are. Everything we do here on earth, career, friendships, everything is a tool with which we express who we are. This i believe is the purpose of all life. This may sound all esoteric nd all but with deeper nd broader study will make sense. 3 Likes |

Twisted facts...it's possible for all religion to be wrong, but it's not possible for all to be right.... If not why do we criticize some practice. But only one wears the true nature of the truth. The concept of God is like when you're born and told this is your father, did u ask for evidence or you just believed and it turned out to b true afterward... Life's all about the choices we make An accident that claim so many life can lead one to the truth and another away from it..... It's how you choose to react to it 1 Like |
