The God Debate v2

[Tenebrous]

"Much rather believe in God and find out there isn't one; or not believe in God and find out there is one." -mom

That is known as Pascal's wager and it's already considered bs cause there are so many religions that you are unlikely to get it right.

hey

let me settle this

there's no way to prove either way, so let's all be agnostic homies 8)

500 people have said they've seen Elvis alive.

Okay ask your voice the answer to the strong goldbach conjecture. You will get 1 million in prize money and a Nobel prize in mathematics. If he can't answer then you can conclude that that voice is you.

That's not how it works.

I can't ask it, I can't control it, I can't decide when it shows up, etc. Yet when it does, I know to follow it.

I don't belief in one, omnipotent god. I don't believe in any specific religion either. I don't believe in an afterlife.

I believe that there are higher beings looking over us. We're like rats in a laboratory or fish in a tank. Quite a depressing thought, but it is what I believe.

Zoo Hypothesis maybe?

there's no ruling anything like that out, but there's no proving it either : (!!

You can't definitely prove God doesn't exist and you can't prove that he does. The thing you could say is why would God leave a large amount of evidence on earth supporting evolution and how all species are related in some way. Why would God put things on earth that point to God not being the creator. He not only put evidence against him, he didn't leave a shred of evidence supporting his existence. Why would you ignore all the evidence found my scientists and God with the faith that God exists. You can't prove or disprove the existence or unicorns, does that mean we should believe in them? Why would it be rational to believe in a God?

this is true if you only think of god in the traditional sense. i prefer to think of some more abstract higher power who may or may not exist

I respect that. There is nothing wrong with that.

This has honestly turned into a bash christians thread, and I am requesting for it to be locked.

A disagreement to someting is not bashing. We aren't being mean on purpose. We all want to have a debate and bring ideas and evidence on both sides to back up our opinions. If there is blatant disrespect than a mod should delete that comment but there is nothing wrong about having questions for each other. We have been good for 16 pages so there is no need to lock a thread especially when we are being civil about it. I respect other's ideas and opinions. I am bringing up evidence from both sided and asking questions. What is wrong with that? I respect christian people and ideas.
This thread is already heavily monitored by mods as it should. As long as mods keep things under control why should it be locked?

 

[boboy1999]

TheParrot this thread will continue to stay open as it's just a civil discussion among forumers, these forums were made to express your opinions on here and so as long as the thread is flame-free, there's no point to lock it

Can a mod please just monitor this thread. There is no reason to lock it as stated here by a mod earlier in the thread. There is no flame on this thread unless people deliberately come here to start problems. A civil debate does not cause flame, people who want to cause flame, start flame just so it can be locked. Just delete those comments and we can all go on about our day.
