Can anyone explain to me why people believe in god? No, seriosly, is everyone fuckin retarded or something? We all believed in santa and the easter bunny and all that other gay shit at one point in our lives, but eventualy we gave it up because it was fuckin stupid. Well how the fuck is god any different? There is absolutely no proof of his existance so why the fuck do so many people believe in him.

If any religios people have any logical reasons (not from the bible because that's fuckin bullshit) to believe in god, let me know. Anyone who agrees with me, feel free to post your beef with religion.

i'm tired, so this is gonna be really poorly stated...

the reason people believe in god is because civilization is very heirarchical. the fittest, most beautiful, strongest, smartest, etc. (i don't mean genetically fittest) were called 'Lords' throughout history. the mythified "Lord," the greatest, most divine of all, sprung from humanity's hyper-consciousness of social dominance/rank.

People believe in god to give them strength and hope, two false feelings.

Why are they false feelings? Sometimes hope is the only thing keeping people alive...

lol.. why the fuck NOT believe in god? Santa and the Easter Bunny are poor examples. In each case, those mythical creatures are actually your parents. Your parents however do not play God.

Have you ever wondered how everything started? Are you telling me, that of the INFINITELY small chances of life occuring on such a PERFECT planet for it to happen, that it did?

There's no proof of God if you choose to believe there is no proof. Jesus was a real man. Whether you want to accept that he is the savior or not is a different story. The Hebrews WERE slaves of the Egyptians. Somehow, they managed to escape.

Does it really harm your life to believe in God anyhow? Oh, I forgot, the morals such as "Thou shalt not kill" are really fuckin stupid, I dont know why anyone would follow THAT rule.

I think it's fucking retarded to NOT believe in God.

i assume you mean a christian god.

well, because they were taught to mostly.

of course there is no proof, but that doesn't mean there isn't a power in the universe that is higher than you. i mean what arrogance you must have. you really believe that you know what is and what is not true in this universe? in this ENTIRE UNIVERSE there isn't a being so much more powerful than you that he could watch you without you knowing?

just shut the hell up. you're a moron.

and i'm sure you probably mean christianity when you say religion. that makes you an even bigger moron.

Move this to B&M.

What do i get?

Why believe in anything?

Your answer lies within that question.

My respect.

But, my respect is a fleeting thing.

Don't let it slip through your fingers.

It's worth more than gold when you've got it.

*muah*
