Dear God, When are you going to let all those who believe in you know that you don’t exist? I find it alarming, scary in fact, that so many blindly devote themselves, act on the behalf of, and talk to something that quite clearly doesn’t exist. You’ve kept a firm grip on society through promoting shame, guilt and fear - not of your wrath - but of humanity and life itself. I get that many of us need ’something’ to believe in, I get that. But it’s still very sad to know that a fairy tale has become the biggest prank in history. I’m sorry people, but no matter who or what you act on behalf of, what YOU do in this life still matters. Who you hurt, who you shame, who you love and who you help determines who you are - what you believe is irrelevant - pain, suffering, joy and love are real.
The reason god knows everything you do, is because god IS you! It’s a joke. Don’t you get it?

god is just adult's santa claus, tooth fairy or anything elsechrisRG - Fact is you are relying on faith in "knowing" that God doesn't exist. The same faith that sustains those of the opposite view.designbot
- thats a retarded argument, bot. then i'll claim i have a thousand horses in my house...********
- ...will you rely on faith? or common sense to know that I'm lying?********
- it's up to the person making the claim to prove their claim.********
- You use faith everyday whether you admit it or not. You are referring to blind faith which is entirely different.designbot
- and???
isn't believing in a god blind faith? isn't that what we're talking about?******** - Nope. It is faith in evidence. If you see a painting what can you conclude? It had a painter...common sense. Same w/ faith in a creator. Every cause has an effect.designbot
- every cause has an effect.designbot
- who the fuck painted god?********
- He is the uncaused cause who has always existed. Without an eternal God you would go back infinitely.designbot
- ah, so lets set a rule, but not apply it to god. your argument is old and blatantly shoots itself in the foot.********
- I see your point, but don't you see mine? Something must be eternal., otherwise the cause/effect pattern is infinite.designbot
- I'm not afraid to admit that I don't know. and i'm not about to believe in something that denies evolution...********
- ...and claims the world is several thousand years old. if you guys can't even get THAT right....********
- ....then what ground to you have to stand on to make your inane claims??********
- There is lots of evidence for a young earth, some of it is really compelling imo. Science uses a dozen or so techniques to try and identify somethings age...designbot
- determines the age of any given thing (including the earth) and none are 100% accurate, and in fact have been wrong by milestones in some cases.designbot
- These are secondary issues imo though, the age of the earth, or evolution being true or false don't disprove the existence of God and are even debate ammoung believers.designbot
- these issues are even debated ammoung believers.designbot
