Now please I know how you religious folks get bent out of shape…so take it easy.
Interesting thread to say the very least. Funny thing though......

You started out by emploring the "religious folks" to not get "bent out of shape". Interestingly enough, they have merely stated thier faith and thier reasons for it.... it appears the NON religious folks are getting bent out of shape. Go figure.

You both ... Archangle and Busy ... had the chance to practice what you preach and missed it.

Never once condemned you, that is not my call, Judge not, less ye be judged yourself As you judged me!!! I have my beliefs, my faith if you will. Laugh if you must!!! what you spout off at the mouth about, has no bearing in my life. It's a shame you have no faith, you must not be truelly happy huh? Guess thats why you laugh!!! Leveling your judgements ...

You speak as if you're the only one with reason here & the rest of us are dilusional As you judged me!!!. I don't give a rat's ass if you believe or not, but you sound pretty arrogant Leveling your judgements ... for a subject that can't be proved by your terms.

I think I'm right too, but I'm not going to "laugh" at someone or degrade them for not believing Contridicting yourself in the same post.
I made a statement that if you offer me a possitive reason I will work with that but if you offer me a negative reason I will laugh at you. I posed a question that could be worked from two directions. Posative or negative. Give me something based in reality to accept God from ... something in which to base faith. Both of you chose the negative missing the chance at offering an honest religious based discussion on the existance of God. Instead I was called an arrogant unhappy person. I am neither ...

Boy, I learned my lesson.
From now on I'll just stick with politics where everyone agrees.

Letīs say there is a God. Religion is exactly that, mans interpretation of life and God. Christianity got it all wrong though.

I was not and am not bent out of anything at all. Show me where anyone of a "non-religious" persuasion posted something "bent out of shape" ...

I never called you arrogant. I said your position on this was arrogant.

You know as well as I do that faith is based on faith. I can't convince God to come tap on your shoulder to show you He exists, and you know I can't. I hardly see your comments as an 'invitation' as I do see it a chance you took to point out that we cannot provide you with physical evidence.

Do you know enough about Christianity to make that statement though?
What makes you say that?

interpretations & different denominations distort it. I'm techically Catholic & go to Catholic church, but I regularly disagree with them. Reconciliation, for example, I think is ridiculous.

The basic Christian tenets are very solid, though.

Christianity isn't about proving God exists. It is believing that Jesus is God & trynig to be like Him. What kind of proof do you want? that Jesus is God?
