Do You Believe in God?

[Nyerp]

no matter what you believe or don't believe in, what you do does not make a difference

and if you truly wanted to help people it wouldn't matter if you believed in a god or not

That's what I've stated.

If you believe in God, it's better if you do good, than nothing. But anyway, I just like helping people and I'd do it even though I were Athiest and had a straight mind of the future than tearing it up.

MIB, let's drop it, clearly neither of us are grasping the other's argument.

...So you think we're all pawns in a deterministic reality? I disagree strongly with this idea.

Yeah, I thought of it too. But anyway, I agree with what you disagreed with Nyerp.

Most humans are confined to their own little lives and friends and values, and that's all they care about and it's the way to live to them. Therefore, nothing will ever happen that affects humankind or the world. Birth and death is the only thing we can do.

Ghandi, Martin Luther King Jr., innovations such as electricity and iron working, etc. etc.

So much has happened which has changed the world and the way humans interact with it

I don't believe in God, it's a bunch of bullshit. I also like how everything is told and not explained in the Bible. Also there was no apple in the garden, the Bible just says FRUIT

If there is no God, how did we, a contingent universe, come to be made?

dunno, why does it matter

[Knig]

It matters because we care about it. Everyone likes to think about our origins at one point or another in their life.

I don't care much about what religions say what God is, but my view of God is simple, as the creator of the universe. There is nothing objective we can say about it aside from that, and that's where some people try to coerce their subjective beliefs unto others.

well then how did god get here?

[The Hand That Fisted Everyone]

well then how did god get here?

You see, God is omnipresent and is an omnibeing. So we can question the methods of God, and the only answer we'll get is "Because God willed it" or something.

you could be asked the same about the universe/earth.

[Knig]

God, being the necessary being for our existence, contains the reason for its existence within itself, and thus must be the Forme of Being.
