What makes the Christian God different from thr thousands of other Gods out there?

[Kitan Etos]

What makes the Christian God correct and the thousands of others wrong?

Absolutely nothing, considering that they are ALL mythological.

[Bad Writer]

We believe in God...you don't!

Whats the problem?

[Analogy Alert!] I like the Yankees... you don't like baseball.

Jesus said when asked about the afterlife: "I'll tell how it will be; those who come to the light will come to me....."

So... there you have it! God will exist for whoever goes to Him. You choose not to. No problemo! [Analogy Alert!] Great franks @ the ball game! We're sorry you'll miss it!

Still waiting on that analogy you promised.

...

Oh. No. Those aren't analogies, Ronedee, buddy. Sorry to break the news to you, but an analogy is only valid if you are comparing things that are alike.

Two things. One: baseball is real and god is not. Two: "to believe" and "to like" are two different verbs. Your analogy sounds like this [comparison alert!]: "What's the problem? We believe in fairies, but you like Twix Bars." Or conversely, "We like Badminton, but you believe in the Jolly Green Giant."

As my evidence of your failed argument shows, you are crying over milk that was never spilt.

Glad to see so many taking an interest in what I said, now that you have shown your beliefs in other gods prove they exist so I can look into them, if you can't then I'll stay with the One I know personally, thanks.

No one has "personally" interviewed a god. Your version or any other version. If you are relying on the Bible as a credible source for proving a god exists, it is nothing more than a compilation of fables, that no one can verify. Now, faith is the belief in things not seen, but you contradict yourself in asking others for "proof" of other gods.

Interviewing a god, that's funny yet ridiculous. A god would be doing the interviewing wouldn't it. However there's an exception, the one true God who accepts us just as we are and then begins to change us into what we were actually born to be. When one sees the changes and knows that only God could have made the changes in you, then you know that He is real.

No one has proof, including you. If you believe, you do so because you wish to believe in the Bible's version of a god.

I have plenty of proof, none that you would accept, but then who are you to tell me I do not know the things going on in my on life, it's to bad you left the church before discovering the true God and His words for life. The Bible was never written to prove the existence of God, where did you get that idea from?

No one knows if a god exists or doesn't. You saying you have a personal relationship with him is how Christians "market" their faith. I guess saying "I talk to myself and assume that it's God answering me," probably wouldn't catch on. Saying an imaginary being is directing my life, yea...that's better.

The latter sounds just as ridiculous but ....

I know God exists with no doubts, what makes you believe I can't know, because you failed at finding Him? That's a problem you have to live with, not me. I do not market my belief and knowledge of God, I witness to those who have questions, I do not force what I know on others, we were not called to do such a thing, we were called to live our belief. You seem to hold the belief because you failed to find God He's not real and that is an idea many have about God and many other things. Sorry but your failure is not evidence that I can't possibly know, I do 100%.

We're supposed to believe you have proof?

You can't share because it would be rejected? Sounds like you have beliefs, not proof.

You can believe whatever you want, I have personal proof that you would reject if God were standing in front of you just so you wouldn't look bad in front of your atheist buddies. The proof comes after the faith and belief, that is if on wants it.

"Personal proof" is code for "I ain't got shit."

"God" is in the mind of the beholder. If you consider that proof of his existence, you define proof, incorrectly. But such is life with religion. It comes up with its own "form" of reality. Arguing against it is like trying to capture every rain drop in a storm, an effort in futility.

I see you have a theme you lean on, to bad, if you could understand what I know you would change that lil' theme.

I don't 'lean' on it. I lived it.

That's probably because: Beliefs aren't proof.

Show me evidence, and I'll examine it. Rejection out of hand, despite evidence, is a characteristic of irrational belief systems, like yours.

Claiming oppression, again? I have no problem examining belief systems: I minored in them.

Accepting your personal testimony despite a lack of evidence or proof wouldn't make me look bad to Atheists. It would make me look irrational: Like those who mix up terms like "belief," and "proof".

You minored in stupid, that's about the only subject you'll pass with flying colors, sonny.

Oh my, the shell of flowery words and hopes for converts parts to reveal a jackass. Surprise surprise.
