You're an asshole.  You're right, you can't prove God exists. You're right, your entire belief system is based on faith, which is another word for "I know something that I can't know".  I'm done, I had enough of your sanctimonious holier-than-thou "I'm blessed and god loves me better because I have it right and you're wrong" and 7/8 of the humans that have ever existed are going to burn forever and that's ok crap by the time I was 10.  My rejection of religion has been a long path requiring a lot of study.  I'm a lot happier for it.  I don't need to be wasting my time getting called childish and ignorant by someone who is mad because I say there is no proof that his imaginary friend exists.

 Well someone got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. You're wrong about faith it is the beginning of Christianity, then follows belief and then follows knowing, things you seem to have missed when you were in a church. I have never presented myself as holier than thou so on this I will call you a liar. You nor I know how many people will be in hell and that's why I'm here in hopes of that number  being reduced by one at least. I present what I know in as nice a way as people will allow, most like you read through my post with glasses of hate and projecting that on what I write, that's called looking into a mirror, so if you do not like what you want to see change it. You can't study yourself out of a living relationship with the living God, so I will say you never had that relationship. I don't get mad because of the trash and childish things you say I find then disgusting and unbecoming of an adult, especially one who makes the claim of being intelligent. I'll end with this

I know God is real, that the Father sent His willing Son to pay the price we could never pay and then invite us back to Him for an unimaginably wonderful life, no matter what you say I will not relent on what I know to be true and as I have said quite patiently and calmly you can not prove different, truth is truth and it can't be changed.

No! No one has EVER met a Christian! Lol.

 Via the internet you have, because I'm definitely a Christian and I'm speaking as in the Biblical kind.

And my stance is that it's not truth until it can be proved.  Assertions, "I know in my heart", books of fairy tales, and threats of "you'll find out when you die" are not proof, and therefore do not constitute truth, they are only opinions.  You can't just claim something is true because you or your book says so.  And that's MY truth.  So we will never agree.

 I hope that want be the case always and I know expect someone to bring absolute proof to you but how you can demand hat is beyond me when you do not believe in absolute truth. I know not just in my heart but in my mind that God is real because He has proven to me His reality and yes it's trough things you wouldn't accept but no matter I know and that is where my truth begins and ends, with God. Thank you for a pleasant post.

How have you never gotten tired of saying this for 8 years, then? On an atheist forum where most people couldn't give less of a fuck about god, you've persisted for 8 years. I admire that, but I don't understand why.

I know this to be a true statement, I say it because I know God is real, it doesn't matter whether atheist like or dislike it or Christians as far as that goes, it's the truth and it needs to be said until some realizes this is true. Hope this answers your question. Please do not admire me, but the One who has kept me sane here for eight years He's the one to admire. No Christian has lasted as long as I have and few atheist, so there must be more to it than me, wouldn't you think?

GC

Ok, lost all my admiration. Let's admire god instead and all be happy model little christians. Gah.

 God is the reason I can stay so He is the one who deserves the admiration, strength through God is an incredible thing. Sorry if that disappoints you but it's true and I can't nor would I change it.

I don't mean someone who claims to be a Christian and can't tell you what that means. I mean someone who lives exactly like the NT says they should live.

Someone who believes that an all powerful being created the universe and transformed into a zombie that died on a piece of wood, and wrote a magic book called "The Holy Bible" with an old and new testament and who ignores huge portions of the new testament and almost the entire old testament qualifies as a Christian.

Yeah, a cafeteria christian. Not a "real Christian".
