RE: Love
I rejoice in thisSmile) John 15:18. Whether you believe or not, the satisfaction of knowing that this post may put an inkling of a doubt into one non believer's mind. A doubt in their own beliefs, that there may be a God. That is enough for me. If you have a belief, even in the slightest (1 x 10^70). I can't force any religion on you, but I swear to you this, if you pray to God earnestly, he will show you the way and He will answer. try it once as an experiment, sincerely pray, not out of anger or mockery, and you will Hear. can't hurt to try right?

RE: Love
If you think you have put even the tiniest fraction of an inkling of doubt into a non-believer's mind with this drivel, you are worse off than I thought.

Right, because we're atheists, we must not have tried. Do yourself a favor and don't make stupid assumptions about people.

a) You haven't put doubt in anyone's mind. Don't flatter yourself, poppet.
b) No preaching. Read the rules if you haven't done so already.
c) "Two hands working can do more than a thousand clasped in prayer." So shove your prayer where the stars don't shine.
d) If you hear voices in your head, seek professional help.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

This is an interesting debate. Now check out a real debate between two master debaters. Also, see if you can guess which one the O/P is on Big Grin

RE: Love
I once saw a debate, it was "does science disprove God?" If you want I can post the link, but before the debate, the audience voted (not exactly the numbers), 40% voted yes, 30% no, and 30% undecided. After the debate, 56% voted yes, 34% no, and 10% undecided. Now you might consider that a loss for Christians, but to me if you can change the mind of 1 person, that's enough. I can only tell you what I know to discuss what I don't, and I know that if you pray, you'll be heard.

But I have to head to class, much Love girls and guys

What does it prove? Absolutely nothing. If you wanna survive here, read up on fallacies, starting with appeal to popularity.

Again with the assumptions...

You should try engaging people about their beliefs before you proselytize. You'll save some energy, and the headache I receive won't be as severe.
