It’s like raising the bet in poker - wagering on a wager. Happens a lot.

That is exactly what has caused every stock market crash in history!

I do know this. I'm asking for the sake of procuring answers from someone other than myself. I promise I'm not THAT stupid. or maybe I am and i just don't know it yet : )

He with a capital 'H'


And I only know Him by God/Jesus/Jehovah. The rest are fictional.

Agree. I don't believe in any of the others also. But for exactly the reasons I don't believe in yours Dunno

What evidence do you have that Jehova is any less fictional than the rest?

I'm only 19 and still seeking answers but so far I've got this.

1. Hope (that he's real) Hope is good but hope won't "poof" any God into existence.
2. It makes a LOT of sense that he would exist, meaning I find it plausible based on the Bible 
3. Too many coincidences
Co-incidences occur endlessly. Your bias is chosing only those which fit your narrative.
4. The Big Bang DOESN'T make sense 
Agree, but neither does a God who created himself out of nothing.
5. There is a limitation to man's knowledge. We don't even have the cure for cancer, how can we be so sure that's not all we don't know about? If we don't even have definitive answers on religion vs the big bang and the Genesis and end of mankind, it means there's a that we're not aware of certain things.

What are your thoughts on this?
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.
