Message of the Day:- 1 Timothy 6:6-10 - "6But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. 8But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. 9People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. 10For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. Link - Cult Watch.
This is my opinion only that there is no God and God doesn't exist.
Science is the answer to everything. We are created from bombardment of materials from outer space onto Earth and life was created from some single cells family.
God is only our figament of imagination and our easy explanation for all things unexplained.
Please don't try to convince me. Prove to me that God exist if you can.
No point talking or arguing away like some learned professors.
Prove that God exists. How do you know God exists? Have you seen him? Have Christians or Catholics seen God or angels or whatever?
Science has proven that life was created on Earth by materials falling on Earth from meteorites.
Christians or Catholics have only come up with a bunch of theories which they been talking and talking for centuries..
Science has proven something. Christians and Catholics have proven they are good in arguing and talking.
That is my point of view.
PS : No need to requote me in any replies as it makes the page so long and tedious to read. It just makes me think that Christians or Catholics are very long winded and tedious.
The Angelic Doctor 5 reasons remains the basis for Einstein's reasoning why God exist.
The idea of a primary mover, the cause and effect etc.
Read Thomas Aquinas reasoning....it all boils down to the above 2 theories.
Ps: The Big Bang if true, proves God. The Big Bang theory was derived by a Catholic priest in Belgium in the 1920s.
Hmmm....why the distinction between Christians and Caths?
My agnostic friend, there are 3 versions of Christianity: Eastern Christianity (350 million), Protestantism (36 000 denom with 600 mil) and Catholicism (1.1bil).
I will tell you God exists when I see God or Angels or Holy Spirit or Jesus Christ.
Otherwise reading theories and profound discussions is after all just theories of God existing.
Science proves that the universe is billions of years old and not that God created in 6 days as according to my Christian friends.
Science is right. God therefore doesn't exist.
Man made God up to exist for spiritual consoling of their own difficult problems.
Looks like nobody can confirm that God exists !
PS : Get more of your Catholic or Christians friends here and we have a wonderful discussion of existence of God. Not that you do not have enough ammo to fire away but more viewpoints are obviously needed.
What is the point of reading 5 proofs of God existence when God didn't exist?
If there is God, then God will not let many people suffered and die for example like someone here who asked "Why didn't God stop the Asian tsunami killing 200,000 people?".
Therefore don't give us non-believers wonderful theories about existence of God.
Simple question like "Why didn't God stop the Asian tsunami killing 200,000 people?" could not be answered convincingly by Christians or Catholics alike.
If God exist, why did God allow people to commit adultery and murder etc.. Why can't he stop it or doing anything about evil things?
Sorry, I have to agree with science than so called 5 proofs of God existence
I just post the below in another thread about the testimony of someone I know. The bible talks about people who does not believe in the existence of God. I can tell you stories after stories. But I think the best is for your to "Encounter God".
Psalm 14: The fool says in his heart, "There is no God."
========================
Of course God exists. That's for real.
Maybe what you can do is to ask God, that if He exists to reveal Himself to you in a way you can understand. You must be sincere.
I have been a christian for 20 years and I can tell you stories after stories of His existence and reality although I have never seen Him once in the physical, but I know He exist.
I once met a girl, she was non-christian and she said in her heart in all sincerity, "God if you exist, please show me." She told me, be very careful of what you pray. She said that 2 years later, she was at home and she heard someone call her name. She looked around the living room but no one was there. It cant be her parents cos they only know Chinese but someone was calling her English name. Then she looked out of the window and saw a man there calling her. She approached and asked Him who He was. He told her He was Jesus and asked her to go to church. She met Jesus on her flat at home in a HDB block. So she went to church, to cut story short.
I was amazed and asked if she met Jesus again. She said no but her mom did. Her mom was hospitalized and in a coma, she was at home praying and God told her to go to hospital to call her mom. She did and nothing happened. Then she went home. Next day, her auntie called her and said her mom has woken up and wants to see her and wants to be a Christian. She was shocked, how come suddenly wake up and suddenly want to be Christian. Went hospital. Then her mom told her she was at the Gates of Hell and about to step in and then she heard a voice calling her name, she turned around and there was a bright light and Jesus came and pulled her out of hell and she awoke.
Amazing. First time I hear and meet the person who experience that.
Seek and you will find. You need to seek God and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart.
Erm, I refuse to read the 5 proofs on why God exist as I dont believe so. If you refused to read such a great work, why even open this thread? The 5 reasons ROVE God existence. Do you AQUINAS....the Angelic Doctor believes simple human reasoning can prove anything....even God!
I believe in the very same page, Aquinas explains abt the evils of this world.
I think more likely the person who told her that he is Jesus is actually a mad man wandering downstairs and the mad man always go around telling people to go to church.
And her mother is dreaming of dying and thought she is dying and wants to be saved. Shere therefore come up with a story of Jesus pulling out and saving her and thus she goes to church like her daughter.
Wonderful stories though. Give you 5 stars credit for it.
