IMO there is no God or any "paranormal" beings. There is what is living right now due to chemical reactons. We are only alive due to the chemical reactions in our brain that work our organs. Once they stop functioning, we die. When we are dead, we don't go to a strange heaven or hell, we are just dead. Our matter slowly decaying making room for more beings to be entered into the world. We are all just chemical reactions and whatever we do, we do. It will not get passed on into any other dimention.
Also, People who state that the bible is true have no good reasons. It is a book, just as Harry Potter is. I could say Harry Potter was real and i could use just the same arguements as someone who is trying to prove the truth or whats in the bible.
It's all a matter of what you were brought up to believe but there is absolutely no proof at all that anything like a god ever existed. Even "ghosts" can't really be proved. The way technology is advancing, anything can be faked.
Basically, i believe what i can see when i open my eyes. I am open minded but i'm not going to be willingly ignorant when the truth is that there is no part of any existance that ever needed the help of a god so i don't believe in it.
My Questions/Statements.
1.] How can you trust the bible if it's written by man who are sinners?
It's that whole 'faith' crap.
Quote
2.] Christians are told they have free will. 'Do what I say or die and burn in hell.' That doesn't sound like free will to me.
That doesn't even work, free will is the choices to do what you want.
You can still do what you want, you just might risk going to hell if you do.
A better question might be: "Christians are told they have free will. If god knows what's going to happen, then how can you say they have free will?"

3.] If Christians are supposed to love eachother as thy selves or whatever. How come they always discriminate other religions and homosexuals? That's not very loving.
I doubt you'll get an honest answer for that. They'll probably say that only a few people are that way. I'm sure you can find many people to use as example. A good, high up person...one they probably voted for...George Bush. It's not hard to find stuff exploiting him being racist, anti-homosexual, intollerant of certain religions. Good example cause they probably support, or supported him.

Everyone points out that there's no proof that God exists, but, what proof is there that He doesn't exist?

The proof that he doesn't exist is that there is proof that things like evolution exists, and simply that there is no evidence of a god except in books. When you base your beliefs on a book and "faith" it's a good sign your bullshitting.
I do believe in God. I am proud to say I am a Christian. Thats what I believe, I don't mind if people bash it. I go to a Christian school, and I love it.

Some people get so technical with religion. That's why I've stopped going to church as much because it's all "you must do this", "you must do that", etc etc. I think religion is a personal thing, a relationship between yourself and whatever higher being you believe in.
And with people syaing "this is the one true relgion" well durr, everyone's gonna say that. There's not a religion that says "well, we're not really sure if this is right or not, but we're practicing it anyways!" If you find one of those, I'll give you a dollar. But anyways, I could worship my tree in my yard and say it's the one true religion and whoever doesn't belive in it is going to burn in the firey leaves of hell or something. Whatever (and hey if you believe that, good on ya. lol) Because of all of this, I'm an Agnostic Christian. Grew up christian, but again, dislike the practices of church and religion, yet accept the bigger parts of Christianity, so bada boom, there ya go.
It's all opinion. And I guess we'll find out what really is right when we die, huh?
You know... all religion is esentially is an endoctrinment from others who want to persuade you into a stupid ass new age thing that really doesn't make sense... listen who said those were God's so called Word in the Bible? someone on Earth. guess what according to the bible we aren't able to commune with God cause he's better than us. BETTER THAN US. YOU know what he should be an equal to us down here... that's bullshit. And from most of the Christian law you aren't allowed to do anything on free will, but however commit your ENTIRE life to God. now listen if I'm gonna believe in God, he better not say I have to serve him! He's almighty! Why can't he fucking do anything for us?! Listen my opinion is that MOST, not all Christians, are corrupt and twisted people.
Oh and I've been bashed by Christians... and called a sexual deviot.
So that's why I don't trust the religion... and im sorry to all of those that I might have offended.
I'm not religious. As far as I'm concerned, religion is a total load of crap. It's run by close minded freaks that dont fit in anywhere else who are all total hippocrites. It's not open to any new ideas, and I've already accepted that I'm going to Hell, and the world's gonna have to deal with it. As for questions... how about..
1. If 'god' loves everyone, why doesnt he love gays or other races?
I however find ancient religions kinda facinating...(ie..the Egyptian Gods, and the Greeks and Romans..)
Wtf mates? Have you ever read The holy blood the holy grail? They THINK Jesus has a blood line. and If some one proves that, then the whole holy god thing will be down the drain.!!

I agree a lot of Christians are close minded
Well thats quite a stereotype, and they're the close-minded ones?
