It's the faith of a child.

When your children were little and you stood them on the side of the pool or a porch or a tree limb, and told them to jump, they did. Blind faith told them you would catch them.

That's the faith it takes when talking about believing in God.

Blind faith.

Believing what you can not see, touch or hear.

How do you make yourself believe?

You start by accepting that God is bigger than everything.

I'm sorry.  I'm unable to accept a delusion.

   But, you will accept the delusion of a man calling himself a woman despite biological evidence and science!  LMAO!!!

 It defies rationality doesn't it? And makes her points totally invalid. The acceptance of perversion is irrational.

I find it sad that people think so little of themselves that they believe that life here is all there is. I think far more of myself than that. I know this is but a brief bump in my life.

 WHY is this life NOT enough?

 Seriously?  You are born for no other reason but to die? I have more respect for myself than that...

 "Respect" has nothing to do with it.

Everyone is born, everyone dies.

 God's children do NOT die.

Everyone lives in faith. You live in faith. You live in faith when you stand up that the floor won't collapse beneath your feet. You live in faith when you sit down in a chair that it will hold you. You live in faith all day, every day, whether you think you do or not. If you were intellectually honest, you would say " I don't KNOW" if God does or does not exist, but it certainly IS possible. However, you are not acting with your mind to say that there is NO God because there is no way you could have searched the ends of the universe to know that.

Are you going to admit it's possible that he doesn't exist?

 You exist.  YOu didn't come from nothing.  YOu didn't create yourself.  There is an Uncaused Cause and that can ONLY be God.

 WHAT? Egg from Mom, sperm from Dad.

Sounds like CAUSE to me.

 Yet, you expect society to accept other people's delusions regarding their gender.  That's just odd.

 Right? Delusions only matter when it fits her agenda.

Yeah, here's the thing. Transgenderism is a real condition.

Science has shown that their brains don't match their bodies.

Science can make their bodies match what's going on in their brains.

Belief in an adult version of Santa Claus, where he's always watching you and will dole out the gift of post-mortem eternal life if you're worthy....not so real.

A celestial, narcissistic deity who demands constant worship and will punish you if you don't grovel before him...not so real.

I'm not buying it. You can if you want to.

 Fine. Don't believe.

But stop with the insults and mocking.

You don't have to be disrespectful of our beliefs.

Oh, you mean how you folks are respectful of other beliefs? Calling the pope a retard and a poopyhead?

Kind of like that?

---

 I have not done that.

And I am asking you to please stop being disrespectful of my beliefs.

lilyofcourse wrote:

In other words, you refuse to stop mocking and insulting me and anyone who is a Christian.

Good to know.

I would say I feel sorry for you, but I no longer do.

The bed you have made is going to be miserable.

 That wounds me to my very core. I don't know how I'll sleep at night.

Weltz. If God doesn't exist, what caused the universe to come into existence? There had to have been a creation event (or a series of creation events) of some sort before evolution can even happen. Something cannot evolve from nothing. So, if not God, then what? What exactly sparked that initial creation from which everything else evolved?

---

How should I know? I wasn't there.

That being said, a belief that there's a deity who watches our every move and keeps track of our transgressions so we can be rewarded or punished post-mortem doesn't wash with me.

A deity who is so jealous and narcissistic he demands constant fealty and prayer to him doesn't sound very plausible.

Any alien being who could poof universes into existence couldn't possibly be so ridiculously petty.

Is it fair to ask non-believers to not mock those of us that believe when there are some of us that believe who mock those that don't?

It would show God's love better if we all led by example.

Your world without God is very cruel Welts. Your world where kids are dying of cancer. Where there is starvation and hunger and some people have a very sad lot in life with no hope of anything beyond is very bleak indeed.

 What in the world are you talking about? MY world?

That's your world. Punishment raining down on humanity because of free will. Because of the apple.

We'd still be safely ensconced in the Garden of Eden if Eve hadn't eaten a piece of fruit.

My world, indeed. It has nothing to do with my world. Your god did this.

Nope.  It's the same world.  The world is the world.  Yet, you are so angry at God whom you say doesn't exist.  So, ok, if He doesn't exist, you still have rape, murder, incest, etc.  The Bible has a very clear explanation of this and the sin of man.  And, we also have the hope of ultimate justice and the Love of God .  In your world, if you draw a sucky hand at life, too bad for you wormfood.  If you are raped and murdered, there is no justice.
