You will always be afraid of something.

But what happens once you've experienced that "something" and confronted it?

What happens once you've experienced everything you are afraid of?

Do new....unknown, or un-thought-about fears lie ahead?

Eternity is a long time....after a while, you'll just stop giving a f*ck about fear. Ask Ash from Evil Dead.

Never said I was dreaming and wasting away waiting for heaven. There is a lot I want to get to see while I am here. There is beauty in everything on Earth, that is true. Just imagine what God is keeping for himself and the next life.

how does God get to enjoy paradise when he has no physical body to enjoy it?

Sure...it could look nice. but what about the other 4 sense that are getting deprived?

Anybody could have typed that. Prove that I exist.

I just talked to Nicci and she said "believe me Link....he exsists" 😛

And you wonder why I love this guy! 🤘

yah, i am a big teddy bear huh? 😄

Do you even read your own posts? You claim that all the evil that happens on Earth is due to our free will, and that God has chosen not to intervene so as to not mess with our free will.
But if you pray for a miracle, you ask for intervention. So if God answers your prayer he DOES intervene – and may even do so against free will, What if you pray for someone who does not WANT God to mess with his/her affairs?
And if God CAN intervene – as in answering prayers – then why can’t he intervene to prevent rape, murder, disease?

Do you read my post? lol 😉 how do you know that person doesn't want a miracle??

Pain is a physical feeling that is processed in the brain. When you die, your brain ceases to function, therefore you are unable to feel pain.

Close your eyes. Are you sure everything is going to be there when you open them? How can you be sure.

b) You are a big teddy bear. You silly sailor! sailor

You may have said, Maybe, but you have used a divin origin several times saying maby that was it....it essense saying that could be the reason for it happening, but in other post you don't believe at all in God. for their to be a divine origine God would have to exist., i thk anyways.

the part related to God is called Agnosticism:

Definition of Agnostic:
Agnosticism is a concept, not a religion. It is a belief related to the existence or non-existence of God.

An agnostic is a person who feels that God's existence can neither be proved nor disproved, on the basis of current evidence. Agnostics note that some theologians and philosophers have tried to to prove, for millennia, that God exists. Others have attempted to prove that God does not exist. Neither side has convincingly succeeded at their task.

Are they Theists? No, because Agnostics do not believe in a God, or a Goddess, or in multiple Gods, or multiple Goddesses or in a pantheon of Gods and Goddesses.

FE> How do YOU know the person WANTS God to intervene?
That is the positive assertion – and then one that requires proof.

Again: Why do you ignore half my questions? Can’t you answer them? Then at least have the courtesy of saying so – so I don’t have to keep posting them.

If God CAN intervene – as in answering prayers – then why can’t he intervene to prevent rape, murder, disease?

I have answered that, it's choice, you've asked that before. We have choices in life. It's not Gods fault those things happen. I"m not meanign to not answer your questions hun.

Sorry to kind of intervene, but...

Indeed, God is not responsible. God gave us control over our lives. It is the choices that the murderers and rapists that cause these events.

in order for me to prove "I" exsist....I am going to need you to define who "I" is....

I would be Scott.... Cyclops.... um.....this guy

Can anyone prove that God does NOT exist?

Samuari guy you're not butting in hun. Thxx

yet more proof of your exsistance.

Besides actually physically typing your name, I've checked with your girlfriend, and have seen your pick

That...Sir....is more than enough "proof" for me to believe you exsist.

Now go ahead and show me something like that for God.😉

My picture? That means nothing.

Me typing? It could be anybody.

My girlfriend confirming it? That could all be an elaborate hoax.

😉 Back at square one, sir.

I'm not saying you need this to believe but it's obvisious that you do, cuz you don't have the faith. but..would you believe if you were in a church service and someone in a wheel chair wanted to be healed and rec'vd it, would you believe then? or would you try to come up w/some other reason?
have you ever been in a Pentecostal/assemble of God church before, where the Holy spirit (peoepl speaking in tongues were?) i guess then you would try to come up w/something then?

probably again that evidence does not prove the existence of god.

I will always try to "come up" with something. It is my job as a person who is curious in science.

I would NEVER accept someone's healing as a miracle, because then I would not be doing my part in questioning the origin of the healing. I will not blindly say "oh God did that!"

I will continue to search for the REAL reason why this person in a wheel chair was somehow healed.

If that seach leads me to God....then so be it. Atleast that way I'll know God exsists.

You said that there was woman in your church that had this particular problem, and she recieved healing. By all means, take a picture of the lady without her chair. Tell me her real name, and her medical history.

And THEN, maybe I might one day be a believer. Unfortunately "this lady at my church" is not significant enough evidence for me to believe what you're saying...

LOL i knew that you both would say, thats not evidence of God. What about attending a church where the Holy spirit is and speaking in tongues?

Cyke cut the crap.

You've proved that you exsist on more levels than anyone has ever been able to prove God exsists.

I've seen numerous pictures of you, I've talked to you online, I've talked to your girlfriend, my girlfriend, and your ex-girlfriend.

I know where you work. Hell, i even know.....Scott, no es tu nombre! 😉

I see the point you are making by discrediting all the proof that I am giving you. But the proof you are laying down for me is quite a bit different than the exsisting proof of God.

If i talk to you...I get a response. Same can't be said for God.

Why does everyone avoid the HOLY SPIRIT?

still no proof of god, not even proof of something divine.

all that is is unexplainable phenomenon and not every unexplainable phenomenon has a divine origine, if some even ahve one.

if someone starts talking all weird on the middle of the street, it would proof as little as when it happens in a church.

cuz you don't want to believe it sounds like to me.
