Gender: Male Location: Southern Oregon,
Looking at you.
The Lotus Sutra is 3000 years old and it has survived all of its critics, and is still around. So, it must also be the word of god because it has survived and has had great care taken to preserve it. Also, no one has ever proved it wrong.
It was made up. There is no evidence of it being true. The only people who see it as true aren't taken seriously by those who don't see it as true. There is no argument to even suggest it to be true.
I find it funny how you beleive Baptism will guarantee you a life in Heaven afer you die. I used to beleive that fairy tale when I was in 5th grade. I grew up since then
FYI...Baptism does not save you from Hell. Repentance does. Do you even know the foundations of your own religion ?
I've repent for my sins, how about you? Baptism doesn't save you I know that, repentance's saves you which I have done. I pray for my sins to be forgiven, and prayed for other people to come too God in my family.
My grandmother God bless her soul told me; tomorrow is never promise to you live for today because you have enough on your plate for today. Never really understand years ago, but now I do and can't wait too see my love ones again.
I know my foundation of my religion thank you. I've been born again and having complete faith in Jesus Christ my lord and savior, I believe in the word of God 100% if you don't.
1.)Why do you believe in the bible?
----I believe in the Bible because it is God's book to all the nations of the world for him to show his people the way
A.) Do you believe because you were told that the bible is true at a very young age?
----I'm the son of a son of a preacher and was raised by the word of God. My grandfather served the Lord with all his mind, heart, and body. My father raised me to serve the Lord and to follow his commandments.
B.) Did you find proof the bible is true at some time in your life?
----When you read the Bible you can feel the Holy Ghost speaking to you about all the sins you haven't confused yet.
C.) Did you make a leap of faith?
----I guess?
D.) Do you believe because everyone else dose, and you don’t want to be left out?
----If I believed what everyone else believed I would believe the earth is millions of years old and that people evolved over millions of years into what we are today. I do not believe that for the word of God is true.
I used A, B, C, and D because you said they were extras
Xmarksthespot not too long ago provided evidense as to the physical aspect of the phenomena we call "love". Now are you arguing that it doesnt exist, even though there is scientific evidense to back it up ?
This explains everything. You were RAISED to believe what you beleive. That's why you beleive it, and no other reason is as valid as this.
Just because you were programmed into thinking a certain way, doesn't make your beleif true.
I've read the Bible numerous times and have never felt this. Oh wait, lemme gues.....Satan is inside me, so that's probably why
Not many Christians who have read the Bible claimed to have felt this experience. Did you ever consider the possibility...wait....probability that this sensation was SELF-INDUCED ?
By love do you mean like alot, or this special force when two people "love" eachother. The former is true but the latter is not, and what I mean when I talk about love, sorry if I never cleared that up.
Initially, I thought you meant that Love does not exist, PERIOD.
No one truly knows what Love in its entirety is. So both our claims are not yet proven, and are therefore inadequate and only hypothetical.
No offense, but you are still 14. Experience it first, then tell me it does not exist.
Love is displayed not only throughout mankind, but throughout the animal kingdom as well. It's kind of hard for me to beleive that something so common among the animals is something we just made up.
Love, whether it be simply a chemical reaction, a force of unification, an instinct, or all of these things combined exists regardless of its most essential form.
