A question for the atheists

[mrveggieman]

just wanted to let you all know God is capitalized. and yes i agree shrushbury, everyone came from one source, and that source is God, wether or not people reading this thread believe their is a one and only God, I believe their is, because the true creator of this earth is also the ruler of this earth, he brought all of us here, he put this into your mind whoever started this. I also like seeing threads like these where we can be open about our faith and religion and talk openly, thanks man

It's comforting to know that God is corrupting my mind and making me disbelieve. I love this freedom of not having to be accountable for anything.

"You have a problem with me? Tough, take it up with God." lol

habs, who said YOU are no accountable for anything?!!!!!

are we back to free will?

and if someone thinks god rules the earth, i would like to debate that, because you may be wrong, or i may be crazy.

um, Shrewsbury, which is capitalized, but god is cool if i don't use caps, He knows it's me and not done out of disrespect.

gatorscollector said, "he put this into your mind whoever started this."

I took that to mean whomever started this thread did so because God put the idea into his mind.

I always try to capitalize the christian God and even remember to capitalize the pronouns despite my disbelief. I think it is grammatically correct to do so. I don't really do it out of respect (at least I don't think so).

I also was curious about this statement. Seems weird that a god (lowercased because I'm speaking about any god) would create people who are staunch non believers. Why would he do this if he programs everybody on where their beliefs lie.

Gatorcollector, if you believe that your God put the thoughts of disbelief in our heads, then how do you know that it's not really the God Zues or Budda, or any other god that you don't believe in who created us all and it was you who he put the thoughts in your head to believe an untrue god? Seems like if you know this to be true, it could easily be turned to say that about any other god.

Good points. Only thing is Buddah is not a god, he is only a teacher or prophet.

I was gonna point that out but figured it distracted from his point for the sake of semantics.

It wasn't a knock on star cards who always makes good points but I just had to point that one out there because I am always hearing people make ignorant comments saying that their religion is greater because they worship a living god unlike buddhist who worship buddah who is in his grave. News flash to those people Buddah is not a god and buddhist do not worship him.
