A Serious Question For Theists
|
To the theists who use arguments like "you have to experience God" and "you have to believe in god to experience him" etc., that is not evidence. This so called feeling of "god" just comes from inside you, and despite the fact that there is no verifiable scientific evidence for the existence of any deity they still choose to believe in it.

Belief in God has nothing whatsoever to do with science. If anyone chose to believe with scientific reason then that would not be a religious belief. That would not be a belief in the biblical God.

Islam answers every question I have.. and still does! and I'm a curious person who refuse to believe on something without logic or conventions.. Islam instigates us to think and learn.. Islam has rules and solutions for any problems etc etc etc Simply it satisfies me! That doesn't mean that I don't believe on other religions that came from God .. cuz we believe that God sent his message and prophets to all nations.. Only that we believe that Islam is the final one since it clarify things and it's sent to all humans in every time... But what make you atheist?! I mean what about life after death?! have you ever thought about what will happen to you when you die! Do you really think that you are going to vanish! Does that mean that your life has any meaning to you!??? then why are we here!! and what's the wisdom behind being and producing .. AND death? why are you so sure that some day you are going to die ?? why not trying to find a cure for that?? If you don't believe on God .. and judgment day.. then why do you believe that you can't live forever.. and must die ?! I'm really confused.. I just want to know what's your view .. about death and such..?!!  (June 14, 2014 at 7:25 pm)Rampant.A.I.

No one has the right to prevent you from choosing your own decision .. and even if you were a believer .. Then God himself gave you that option.

There are evidences in the Holly Quran that God exist.. and even without the quran.. or any other book.. I can provide you with many evidences .. I can provide many .. historical.. medical.. social.. biological.. physical.. evidences .. But the question is! would that make you believe? to believe in any idea.. not only god existence.. you have to open your heart and mind first and accept that this idea can be true! Then you can search for evidences and make your research.. Then choose wether to or not to believe..

Why is that any harder to believe than that you'll be magically transported to paradise forever and ever? Quote: Does that mean that your life has any meaning to you!??? Scarcity is the dictator of value, not perpetuity. My life is more valuable because it's limited, if you actually spent a second to think about it. It's the only one I have! What about you: isn't it true that your life on earth is meaningless, since you think you've got another, better one that'll never end going on after you die? Quote: then why are we here!! Isn't living enough? Quote:There are evidences in the Holly Quran that God exist.. There's evidence in Spiderman comics that Spiderman exists.

"Marginally held"? I wasn't aware the number of people who hold a belief influences its truth value.  As for contradictory, how does "I don't have evidence of this thing, therefore I will not believe in it," contradict itself?
