Does God Exist

[Fruity]

Dude. No.

Last night I went to sleep thinking of my aunt Carmen. Earlier that day I talked with someone about not wanting any more kids. I had a dream that I was looking through aunt Carmen's closet and found a baby. Keep praying for the god to prove himself in a dream, and you might get the proof you want. Doesn't mean squat.

Ask for my mom to call you and ask you if my hymen is intact. That'll do it.

Edit: quote went wrong. deleted the quote.

We have a saying in chinese, the more you think about something during the day, the more you're likely to dream about it at night



It's true.

At this point if you get a dream I'll dismiss it as a fluke, not that I wouldn't in the beginning. Dreams don't mean anything.

It seems very very clear to me that monkeyman will eventually be a believer in someone's god regardless of Sunday's outcome.


Anyone so desperate to know a god will eventually find one. These little weekly time frames will do nothing to quell the need you feel inside.
I'm not mocking you monkeyman. I'm sad for you.

[Fruity]

I agree.

It will be on of those Jesus faces in a grilled cheese sandwich kind of thing. You want to see it, you'll see it.

You yourself have Deistic beliefs which is no worse than my views?
I am not saying I believe in God but I am finding that the Bible is a load of Crap.

I never knew the Exodus never happened.

[MindForgedManacle]

Deists don't tend to run around claiming to know the god they think exists, do they? That would sort of contradict them not (necessarily) believing to be interventionist.

[Bad Writer]

If you want to believe in a god then more power to you. Just don't go around trying to justify your wacko beliefs to anyone but yourself because you'll get laughed at for trying to tell us something is true without any real way to verify that claim first.

[LastPoet]

Let me see.. God exists and is unnoticeable; God doesn't exist and is also unnoticeable.

Yeah, I'm better off not believing bullshit.

I generally go back to the level of the claim and the level of the evidence.

This god thingy is supposed to be the most spectacular, awesome, amazing thing that there can possibly be. The "evidence" that is presented for this thing is invariably unimpressive.

What delivers the spectacular evidence for spectacular claims -- science does.

In 1902 a self-propelled flying machine was a spectacular claim. The wright Brothers delivered the spectacular evidence.

In 1969 landing men on the surface of the moon was a spectacular claim. NASA delivered the spectacular evidence.

In 1876 recoding and playing back sound was a spectacular claim. Thomas Edison delivered the spectacular evidence.

God is a spectacular claim -- put up or shut up.

My views are "no worse" than yours? I don't find your views bad at all. You're searching. Having belief in a god is not what I find sad. It's the unexplained need inside of you that I find sad. I used to know what that felt like. It sucked.
When I realized that it came solely from fear I realized that it couldn't be rational and discarded the world's organized religions.

Do you want to know god or do you want to rid yourself of fear? I think maybe if you were honest with yourself you'd realize that your search is not about god, it's about your death and the unknown that follows. On some level, I think we can all relate to that fear. It's long been a device of the Bible. It's a disgusting, vile, underhanded way of bringing half-wits to their knees and keeping the coffers full of cash.

Regardless of all this, there is no god that is going to reveal himself to you, and all the prayers and ultimatums in the world are never going to make that happen.
