Do You Believe in God?

[Necro]

@ DecembeR: Yeah, I don't even think it's worth making a post like that anymore. So many things about that religion contradict with another thing from the religion, it's outrageous. Making a huge post about yet another thing is kind of pointless. Not saying you're in trouble, but just a heads up, you don't need to go into huge detail about it. y;

Still, I was bored, and I wanted to prove my point.  caterpie;

Your avi scares me.

My answer is somewhat complicated and depends on the definition of the word "god", but for the sake of simplicity: No.

I do! I think it's kinda stupid not believing in things that are good.

I do! I think it's kinda stupid not believing in things that are good.

Santa Clause, the Tooth Fairy, and the Easter Bunny are all "good", they give you stuff.


Flooding the earth to kill everyone(well, except Noah and his family) doesn't seem good.
Allowing Satan to kill Job's family and give him boils doesn't seem good.
There are many things the bible says he has done that wouldn't be good.

...Wow. Please leave and come back to serious discussion when you can input real thought into the discussion.

It's easy to say that those things aren't real.... A fat guy who rides in a sleigh?  A big Easter bunny giving out eggs when you find a tag on the costume? A big castle made out of teeth that's floating in the sky? Anyways... Your right about

But there has to be a story behind all of that...

But it's hard to say that some all-knowing guy we've never seen runs things?

Not when you have alot of believers... Sure the Easter Bunny and all those other fictional characters have lots of kids believing in them but everyone knows that it's just a person in a costume... Anyways... People question how did the world start and how did we get made? The answer can't be nothing...

Well, I believed in Santa until Iw as 15, thing was, I thought I actually saw him sneaking through our house.

But it doesn't have to be in that of "god". Think like you did for those little myths. The answer to who was putting presents under the tree was Santa, until you thought about it, and realized it was your parents' doing. Now think about the creation of the universe, beyond that of a proofless "all knower".

Actually, the answer could be nothing. There really isn't much evidence that our universe exists, since nothing extends beyond the realm of our thought and imagination.

Do you seriously believe that everything around you is your imagination?  Why don't you just imagine yourself anything you want, or did you just imagine yourself up a set of rules prohibiting you from imagining anything you want?  While you were at it you must of just imagined up the highly complicated world of science, which you can't even understand entirely yourself, but you had to of imagined it up in the first place.. kinda strange. 

You can't just of imagined up science, you would of had to imagine up the contents of science, down the the very last thing.  Every last thing in the world down to the last piece of dust in India you would of had to imagined up. Even this completely retarded theory has to answer the question where things came from. Where YOU came from to imagine up the world you are in.

Either you introduced us to the most ridiculous theory for the sake of argument or you are truly... well, stupid to say the least. No offense(Unless you truly believe this theory, then offense).

Of course, "some guy up in the sky creating everything around us" is a completely logical theory.
There are no limits to what the mind can think up.
Acosmism seems like the most intriguing theory to me at this point.

For the time being, I'll just stick to atheism.

I merely state possiblities. Nothing is ever certain.

If the universe is controlled by one's subconscious, they they don't really "decide" everything that goes on, do they? It's influenced by the conscious mind's experiences, but not controlled by it.

Could you prove anything existed before your lifetime? Can you prove to anyone else you exist, or can anyone else prove to you they exist?  The only thing that can be proven is existence of the mental realm of oneself.

I wouldn't necessarily say I believe this theory, but I think about and develop it.

I think organized religion is a load of bullshit, but I'm not going to stop you from believing in God.
