False. God has nothing to do with changing one's life or the lives of others. The comfortable delusion of god's existence may only give you the false security of happiness.
Making the decision to better one's own life and changing the lives of others for the better is mere humanity. No god involved.

It takes a special kind of fool to believe in a "creator."
You must be the star of the class.

When lives are transformed and empowered to live Godly lives through a personal relationship with Christ, one knows beyond reasonable doubt that God is real.
My neighbourly advice to everyone is to first experience the life changing relationship with Christ.
Thank you for being so condescending but you might just as well say, just get the lobotomy and then decide if you don't like life better. No thank you.

That's because there isn't any content! Usually the theists here at least attempt some kind of argument, but this guy's basically just said "you atheists are wrong. To stop being an atheist, start being a christian. Then you'll be right."
Fucking christ...

I'm a human... and I think I'm alright... 2 feet, 2 legs, 1 torso, 2 arms, 2 hands, 1 head.... everything seems to be in its rightful place... no mess, here!
The world is unstable?... I blame the politicians... and, before them, the clerics... and, before them, the tribe chieftains... well, you see... it's the ruling class that's to blame for most of the crap that happens in human societies. However, it's one of those cases where "you can't live with them, you can't live without them".
So societies have evolved, slowly towards keeping the most people well and happy.
Around the world, this evolution hasn't been homogeneous, and there have been a few mishaps which seem to de-evolve, but, overall, it's better now than ever.
I dreamt that someday all humanity would benefit from the same advancements I benefit... until then, I can only condemn stupid leadership where I see it, however I'm fully aware that I'm incapable of replacing that leadership.
So I live and let live. Leaving a few thoughts here are there, a few ramblings, a few ideas, a bit of me.

Christian, I asked if you could be more specific. That was more vague. You went the wrong way.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

I actually already went through something like that. It had to be about....12 years ago?
Yeah, I got over it.
