Tell me all your thoughts on God....

Do you believe in Him or not?

I am a Christian...God exists and is loving but just.....that's my thought...now tell me yours

I am not a beliver. If your God is just Julie why does 2/3 of the worlds population live in missery

hmm, this is a very thin line... ...

sorry Julie, none-believer here...
but I know that there are believers here, and I do NOT look down on them, laugh at them, moch them or what ever action that can do them harm!

Oooh, very brave topic of yours, Julie!

Well, I have never believed that the suffering in the world is any reason to either doubt the existence or good will of God. It's all down to free will and so on. If God just made everything right there would be little point to things.

I'm not sure I stand, Julie. I think I will agree with you on morre things than I will disagree. Though I am afraid that some Christian beliefs make me nervous.

If there is a god, you have to wonder who created him.

nice opportunity to get this one off-topic...

who you ask? me!

No

really! I swear!

I'm confused
anyways.........
why dont you believe in god?

and to who are you talking now?

*shakes head in disbelief* My god in heaven!!!!!!!

I'm not in heaven, I'm here!

Okay, topics like this need to be treated carefully. It generally tends to get ugly. So I'll be the one watching this one.

is this the so-called "queeq is the big bad mod" thing?

No I'm not a religious man. I was raised as a Roman Catholic but drifted away from it. I follow no religions now. I don't criticize others beliefs though. Do what you want, just don't try to convert me or tell me that I'll burn in hell. I don't believe in hell, so lol.

I wouldn't mind going to hell, Cleopatra is down there, you know

Hmm. Well, there you go, Julie, you are bound to get a lot of rubbish with a thread like this. But what people say to a thread like this is normally pretty revealing anyway.

Rubbish!?!?! Well I've never!!!!! I say good day sir!!!!!!!!

I have no doubts at all that there is a god.

...not a god....the God

Ush, I'm not worried about the rubbish I really am curious to know people's thoughts. My life has been a bit sheltered ....I want to know what the "rest of the world" ( besides NJ) thinks.

Dear Padawan Learner, I would never tell you you're going to burn in hell....however I can't help but want to convert you!....It's a strange touchy subject...I'll tread lightly from here on in.

I think queeq's right...treat this with respect..

I believe in God..it's the rest of it that doesn't make any sense..I'm not big on religion.

Realitively speaking I'm not either...if you can believe that

unfortunate...I wish I weremore religious.

I agree with you that respect must be involed here.

Really, I only ask these questions because I'm curious about the thoughts of other people....for my entire life I've grown up around church-going people. Please, just share your thoughts with me.....I won't mock you....I'll respect you and your beliefs.

I don't go to Church (accept on holidays). I was babtized, and confirmed. But I still don't really go.

But I know there is a God. No doubt in my mind. And when the shit hits the fan, and the rapture is upon us, I will be saved, because I know in my heart that I will be.

interesting saying.....more later

"What if God was one of us?" Good song!

Errr.... Tex.... you might want to reconsider your hell craving. Cleopatra was, despite legend, NOT very pretty....

queeq, Tex is hell bound anyway. He's just trying to make the best of a bad situation.

So it's not working.

Tex is confused, because he lives in the desert, and probably hasn't had a drink of water for 12 days.

Maybe he should take a holiday to Minnesota and check out one of the bars down there.

Hey, good plan! At least he could eat some of the snow that's on the ground and re-hydrate himself!

You think that'll work at all after all these years in the desert?

You're right. Texas is doomed.

So Texas IS hell, is that what you're saying? In that case Tex got his wish but I doubt he'll find Cleopatra there.

well, ok, we had that now...

everybody has his own believes and they are all diferent...

Really? Who died and made you an expert?

I murdered him and said I'm the expert now

Very convincing.

I'm not religious at all, but I DO have Faith of sorts.

I hate the word God, as it doesn't explain what I feel on this subject.

I know there is something great out there, as you may recall from the recent Astrology gone Astronomy thread. We can't begin to explain the universe in which we live, if we can't do that how can we make any kind of informed decisions on anything.

Answer: We can't.

What we can have is our own Faith, this is a very individual thing and can be quite seperate or closely linked to religious belief, that depends on the individual.

I can't say that thew old or new testement has me convinved. There is a lot in there that makes some kind of sense, but also a lot that just doesn't.

Whilst I have looked at some other religions, this has only been in a very basic way.

So, in summary;

God: Well I believe there's something, but I wouldn't use the term (name) God.

Religion: No.

Yep, Classic Agnostic!

Which means as much as: we don't know if there's anything, but there might be.

agnostic is more like: we shall never know

no. agnostic is I really dont belive , but I dont deny it either

ok, if you say so...

No, it's more than that. Agnostics aren't willing to make a comitment based on the current level of proof, however they don't refite the existence based on the same level of doubt.

Sort of what I said.

Yep, pretty much.

OKiday. Thanks for playing.

To queeq Life is just a Gameshow.

Yep. You win some, you loose some.

and sometimes you crash

Not in my gameshow.

*starts bumping head*
Hmm ... nope, no crash

Told ya.

what? no sharp remark? Are you tired? or are you planning something else?

Always.

I'll be waiting then...

Personally, I don't believe in the God or any god for that matter. My family is very Catholic and I was baptised in the Catholic Church as a child, but as I grew up I realized god was something that was created by man for hope of a better existence after death and nothing more, but thats just my opinion.

As it is for many.

yep...but not me. What do we live for then???....What is the chief end of man???

What IS your purpose in life then, Julie?

this sounds familiar

Why?

meaning of life...

doesn't ring a bell huh?

three holy kings day?
and I dont

Why does there have to be a meaning to life? Just be yourself and do whatever you feel necessary to live a what you think is a meaningful life.

hmmm, little kids running around, singing for candy... (damn, I want to be a kid again)

And if you don't open the door they sing:

"Hoog huis, laag huis, der woont een gierige pin in huis"

(can't translate that one)

In the beginning, man created god

what if god was one of us?

2002, wow.

Basically, the God I believe in isn't mentioned in the bible or quran, or whatever.
