  • Hi Guest - Did you know?
    Hot Topics is a Safe for Work (SFW) forum.

Do you believe in a God?

Strong willed is the man who can accept his own mortality, for it is he who can truly stand in the truth of his existence.
 
Not only do I believe in God, I also believe God has a female Goddess partner
 
No, I am an atheist (or at least agnostic). How can anyone be a believer when there are so many gods to choose from, all of which are asserted to be "the one TRUE god"?


If Telly, in his posting#22 justifying his faith, can't even compose a grammatically correct 6-word sentence with his god's help, that casts a lot of doubt on the soundness of his thinking.

Because faith is about sticking to whatever single one is picked, not about justifying one as a possible choice among many: the act of believing in only one anihilates both the need for any explanation, and the need to compare with others that may be included in the same category of god, The God.

You are quite correct, EOE. In a human's limited use of English, there is no descent non-gender specific pronoun for using when one doesn't know which (male or female) something could be. This also assumes that God has a specific gender ;) I've always believed that the reason God has been given a male pronoun in the Bible and other historical texts is that in the era that these were written, that society was predominately patriarchal or male dominated.

I agree with you...I think men who had egos...naturally... wrote the book and inserted themselves into the "holy scripture" in so many ways....

Worked out well for them but not so well for so many others....

I will state categorically, that God has both an inimical sense of humor and an impeccable sense of timing :-)

I think God has a wicked sense of humor:-<.... and timing is everything. When I let go and allow myself to be guided...my timing improves 1000%.
 
I'm not sure one way or the other. I'm thinking there isn't, but who knows? What we know about the universe isn't even a drop in the bucket. Then there's organized religion... to me, it feels as if someone believes Harry Potter is real.

I also find it interesting that some of the nicest, most forgiving and non-judgemental people I know are atheists... religious people, even if they're not nutcases, all seem to be judgemental and unwilling to accept opinions and lifestyles different from their own, and are quick to kick someone to the curb at the drop of a hat.
It's also uncomfortable talking to them knowing that they probably think people like me, and so many genuinely good people deserve to be punished for not thinking exactly like them.
