I also know that Christianity is the only way for nations and people to live sucessfully; so it anoys me when I see people drawing people away from this.
But it does not anoyme that much, otherwise I would not be on this forumn.
As for arguments for Gods existance. The very fact that we exist, shows it is possible that God exists. God is a rational being, with thoughts feelings, emotions; as we are.
The fact is that more and more people are letting go of their beliefs by challanging them. Questioning is the first step to letting go of religious beliefs.
You cannot know if there's a god or not. It's just a belief. It's only a hypothasis.
Also religion does not promote peace. It promotes war. You can never get everyone to follow one belief system and if you cannot accept people who turn away from religion then that is going to start up confrontations.
Religion is dieing, Religion is losing it's followers and I for one see this as a good thing. Since people are waking up to reality with a new view, With a new prospective. I'm happy to hear that pete is challanging his beliefs. once you start questioning, You begin to see reality.
There is no god or anykind of afterlife and more and more people are accepting that. People are turning away from religion mainly due to lack of evidence.
I started turning away from religion when I was threaterned hell. As soon as I was threaterned with eternal torture I started turning away and then I looked to science. I've been this way for years.
I am a strong atheist. I cannot know there is no god but I can say that I'm certain.
Just like you cannot know there is a god, Your just certain.
The non-religious population is growing fast! More and more people are turning away from religion.
Hurry for Atheism!

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
