[vsukicker]

[ausurfer]

[KillOrBKilled]

Ab lot of people. Religions are deteriorating though. Check out Hugh ross to hear a Christian scientist perspective. I think he's pretty good

[coctopus]

I stopped believing as I got older, and it was funny seeing all the people I knew when I was younger still believing and going to church. I guess I expected them to grow out of it, but only one other person did (that I know of).


No religion hate though.

[Plyoz]

Nope, but living in the south there's a bunch of church goers. Have a lot of friends that took 3 years to do that Catholic
Confirmation chit and then became atheist the day they were confirmed.

[ChrisLifting]

if you still believe in any God you should consider how phucking inept and useless your beliefs are and abandon them for the benefit of society

[caj]

Of course I do. He's the reason I get up everyday and do what I do.

When you stop thinking that God is just about giving you what you want and instead you start seeking His will for your life, you'll find that He will bring you to an incredible place in your life that you could have never come up with yourself.

Some sort of creator exists. The universe has laws of nature that are measurable. It's like someone wrote the program. You don't have to subscribe to any man-made cult to simply believe that God exists.

[BrightThru2014]

I think most intelligent people go through 3 stages of belief:

- Blind belief: For when you're too young to really question what you've been taught
- Blind disbelief: For when you're old enough to think, 'this is kind of too convenient/ridiculous' but too young to really consider the issue more deeply
- Enlightened agnosticism/weak theism or deism: For when you've become old enough that you're aware of your own mortality and of the deep complexities of our existence, and in turn maybe rediscover the wisdom of religion or at least begin to reject a purely positivist worldview as insufficient even irrational.

Some get stuck at stage 1 or 2 though.

Grand architect of the universe mayn

Yes

I was born in to a Traditional Catholic family and as a Kid I always knew God existed just by looking into the clouds and all the scenery. Growing up I tried hard to be good person in general going to Church every Sunday. Once I got to High school I started to do things that went against my religious upbringing and made me realize that being religious and just going through the motions wasn't enough to be right with God.



One day I just had enough of the hypocrisy I was living and decided that day forward I was going to find the real truth, and I was going to be honest and sincere with myself.

I opened the Holy Bible and started reading it and even though I was religious all my life all this I was reading was foreign to me and didn't understand it. I turned on the TV and a preacher was explaining the Bible. I wrote down several pages of bible scripture to try to put all this together and figure it all out, then it all sudden became clear.



You can be religious all your life but if your trying get to God that way with religious activity and doing good works, its not enough, you can never do enough to be right with God. Only through trusting the Lord Jesus Christ and his finish work on the Cross will fulfill God's requirement of righteousness. Instead of yourselves or religion, put your full trust, and faith on the Lord Jesus Christ.

You do that by Admitting to God that your a sinner and can't save yourself, Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as your savior, Confess all your sins to God repent by turning from your sinful ways and turn to God.

So you're calling most of the world dumb?

U mad OP?

[Sinan09400]

If god exists


Then Lord tell me

"Why?"

So that I would know

[xevolution]

Yea, but not in a Christian/Muslim/Judaic/Buddhist/other sense

[andrew28]

i left my religion like that awkward moment in curling. i didn't wanna make a spectacle. i just slowly slid that round stone away on the ice. and then i walked away.

Seen the world?

[spazzin]

Seen the world?

Well my point the average religious person has the same intelligence as the average athiest

I hate when athiests think they are "smarter" for not believing

I respect their beliefs, but they dont have to spout about it and look down on others as if they are our superiors

[mmilkman]

lol'd. anyone who's worked in customer service can attest to this I think

I wouldn't go on about looking down at others, but I highly doubt the average atheist has the same intelligence as the average religious folk. 99% of the religious people I know were raised that way, born in the south btw. Only a few have wavered. Only a handful have questioned things over the years. I'm sure it's the same in Muslim/Jewish/Buddhist/etc countries.

If you were born in Pakistan, would you still follow Christianity?

I know I'm assuming things, but you get the gist.
