You don't need proof. I know he is their I may not have seen him in person but I have seen God and Jesus act in my life.

And about the "Why doesn't he fix the worlds problem?" well the answer is he promised us free will he is not going to take that away. It it corrupted people that cause our problems.

I believe in God and Jesus and I hope one day you will to.

Its call FAITH

My Philosophy

Religion is a way to keep people on the "right path", to guide them through life and do good.

That is a very good interpretation, I agree with what he is saying about religion, but you must realize, Jesus was influenced by God, so they do link just a little, and it is just as equally annoying to hear Jesus mentioned. Yes, I believe a man like Jesus existed, but I think he has been exaggerated greatly.

-Destined- wrote I personally want to believe in God, but I can't. There is no valid proof and almost the entire Old Testament sounds like a children's book to me. I think too logical. I'm sorry if some people are offended, but I think religion was just an old theory of the Universe.


That is a very good way of thinking, and thats kinda how I feel sometimes.

I believe that there is something beyond our reachs...
I believe that a man had a crown of thorns crammed into his skull and was whipped with hooks where he was then taken to the top of a hill and nailed to a cross...
I believe in no religion...
I believe in forgiveness

No_OGs_Left wrote The concept of religion is nice, it brings people together. But I can't see the logic behind a man in the sky creating everything after the things that have been seen throughout our universe.
I also think religion causes war and problems across the globe. People take it too seriously and force their views onto others, making it even harder for me to take it seriously.

I respect your views, I simply do not agree.


I agree with you, people who need religion I can understand, but those who believe to say they believe are stupid. Most "religious" people can't even describe their religion to you

Matter wrote Its just something to fight over and debate. If God is so great and all powerful, how about he fixes the issues in this world? If he can apparently develop a whole world, why can't he fix the issues with it. Don't tell me "he is busy" or anything like that, it is said that he created the world basically instantly, if he can do that he can make a few quick fixes also.


Think of it this way.....God created us and put us through a test (which is life) and based on our actions in life he decides whether we are worthy of going to his kingdom (Heaven).
I also believe that God doesnt intervene with all the bad things in the world because he wants us the sort them out our selves which im presuming is part of this 'Test'.
I agree with you 100% Nuff said

God created the Earth, he put us on it. He gave us freedom of will, so he doesn't control what we do on this planet.

You guys are to young to automatically assume that there is no God. Mind you, I am Agnostic and 21 years of age. But, I live in a house with a Bible Thumper and a lot of what she says makes complete and total sense. On the other hand science makes total and complete sense. Guys, it is alright to have religious views and believe in scientific views at the same time. Just think of it this way, Good and Evil have to balance each other out. Yes, biblically our planet was created in a day by some sort of being. If that being was there to come to every becking call what would the point of life be? There could be a heaven and a Hell, we just don't know.
