DO YOU WANT TO BELIEVE IN GOD?

You should've stopped at 3.

in your case? maybe.

ok...substitute "think" for belief.

DO YOU WANT TO BELIEVE IN GOD?


3/4. I'm not sure what you are asking. It seems to me that, taken literally, your question is a rhetorical and sarcastic remark saying atheists are intellectually dishonest.

The "Twister"!

For examples read your buddies posts...and you'll get the real flavor of "rhetorical and sarcastic remarks".

DO YOU WANT TO BELIEVE IN GOD?

Nope, I'm perfectly fine without god.

...or is [proof] the main thing holding you back?

Even if there was proof that god exists, isn't he kind of an asshole? All those babies and children he could save from preventable disease and malnutrition, the holocaust, war, suffering... yeah, he's kind of a dick if he does exist.

The classic response! Well...guess what? WE COULD ACTUALLY SAVE ALL THOSE DYING BABIES OURSELVES!

Do you believe that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe?

If the universe is infinite, then there are an infinite number of stars, with an infinite number of planets orbiting those stars... So yeah, it's pretty likely that there are other forms of intelligent life out there. Will we ever meet them is another question, and to that I say, "Probably not."

OK...so God could exist then?

Yes, I fed the troll.

Thanks! I was hungry.

Ok....For those who don't "think" there is a God, or want to "think" there is a God...

Why would you think there is intelligent life somewhere else?

Wouldn't it be a "belief" that someone exists w/o seeing proof?

Also, wouldn't it be possible for this unproven intelligent life to be 100's of billions of years superior to us? And actual hide from us 40,000 year old infants?
