@Q8379 I know You dont believe in religion.if you live to see everything the QURAN mentions in the coming future, am sure you will understand ISLAM. sun will rise from the west, moon will split, arabia peninsula will turn green and lakes will flow as once was, 3 major earthquakes will happen, appearing antichrist (ON HIS APPEARANCE, ATHIEST WILL BELIEVE THAT HE IS GOD. BECASUE OF WHAT HE CAN DO) and JESUS(pbuh). Fairy tales we speak will soon be Facts.
@Q8379 what i said to Mr Hitchens was disgusting and wrong, and i seek for his forgiveness, may ALLAH(swt) forgive me for saying such things about the dead.i said those words because of his ignorance. who am i to decide, let ALLAH(swt) be the judge of all.
We are diminished without you, Hitch. You are missed greatly. You were a hero to many, a voice to the oppressed, and an icon to which many would aspire. The human race lost a great credit when you passed. You will be missed but you will never be forgotten.
good debate but what he doesn't realize is fighting and wars are what keep reminding us how bad things can get on earth. in the old days, they all fought. now, its only the grunts that fight. therefore you have stupid ignorant politicians telling us to kill ourselfs like a game of chess. you don't see any of them getting there hands dirty, so they don't respect it. which will kill us all eventualy. its not religion its stupid people.
Really liked and respected Hitchens until I found out how much of a war lover he is, now I can't say I care for him very much, R.I.P all the same tho...
One post below illustrates exactly what Hitchens says about Christians being hateful, their god being hateful, and sadism being the very core of Christianity "If you wait till one second after you die it will be to late. Crying to God for mercy then will get you exactly none." Point proven. Christians are at best ignorant and at worst (and most often) blood thirsty, enjoying and relishing in the fantasy of damnation and suffering of their philosophical opponents.
Remoguy, it's very odd as well as totally unpersuasive to use as evidence of the proof of a religion the texts of that religion which can only be believed if you seek for ways to believe them, instead of looking at them and asking, "Is this accurate?" There are simply scores and scores of basic astronomical, physical, and historical inaccuracies.
On a different note, Christians have been preaching the very near end of the world their entire lives and dying of old age for *dozens and dozens and
@RakeeshJ4 That isnt really true. Their were always fringe elements who talked about the end of the world. But the Christian Body and people who knew the Bible ,knew that it could not be the end because certain things didnt line up.
Today ,after 2000 years Israel is again a nation. Also we live in the age when something can happen in jerusalem and everyone on earth can see it(TV).the knowledge explosion,rapid travel.WMD's , SCOFFERS, its all in line today for the return of Christ.
II Peter 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 3:4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. 3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water.

God has judged earth before. He's going to do it again.
Oh yes, the ever present admonition of "soon". When is soon, sir? When do you people get to stop this menacing, ever-repeating diatribe? "Soon". Is that supposed to terrify people into obedience, much as your ilk are so inclined? You do so well with goading others into obedience with terror.
As much as I hate appealing to a sovereign notion of existentialism, hitchens reply seems here to be compelled by a higher form of logic that most of our species lacks access to. He appears to be stricken as a conduit for pure reason, despite his autonomy or volition....awe inspiring.
@Remogogy No, i am not blind. You are. You accept a fantasy fairytale on NOT A SINGLE PIECE OF EVIDENCE, then you claim that we are blind and you can see, lol not at all. You are a gullible fool. Ever wondered why atheists on average have a higher IQ? I think i know the reason why..
And no he is not. He is in the same state everyone is in when they die, your pathetic little child-like story book can kiss my ass. Can you prove any of this? No, of course not. Just infantile rantings of an infant.
@Remogogy Lol what a laughably stupid answer. Faith? The believing of something ridiculous for no good reason? No thank you, i will leave that to the gullible and the desperate.
I have looked, and there is none. The classic religious NON-answer, "if you would just look!" blah blah blah.
Actually no they are not, as the bible is a biased source you idiot, also what of those two prophecies have came true?
I dont hate god as he doesnt exist. Atheists always win the debates, its not even close.
@itchygonads So far you have called me an Idiot twice , a Gullible fool, Called the Bible a pathetic story book, And accused people of faith of being gullible and desperate.
Is this an indicator of that Higher IQ you were talking about?
or is it just your superior debating skills at work.
Why don't you get an education, so you can hold dialogue ,instead of just name calling.
your atheistic railing and hostility is actually the norm from your side.
@Remogogy You dont want to read it as you dont care about the truth. You are a coward and a moron. Good day, you have shown your true colours and the common christian mind set. A gullible fool has been shown this day. Enjoy wasting the only life we have.
@Remogogy I emailed you with a list of statistics and facts. You claim god is true and nothing more. Well no, you have shown cowardice by not answering my email, you are gullible as you believe fairytales, and because of that you are also a moron. Perfectly justified.
Because it isn't true, nor has it ever been. Must be embarrassing that christians have been trying and FAILING to prove the existence of god for over 2000 years huh?
Hitches owned ANYONE he debated, he was never defeated. no proof.
@Remogogy Men made up Gods/God and all the different texts that go with them for thousands of years because they were, and remain so today, scared and confused of the world. Believing in God is an easy way out, a comfort blanket, and while I'm sure praying has helped many people, it is ultimately pointless as you are only talking to yourself.
@Remogogy Can I ask why you chose your religion? I assume you read all the scriptures and texts from all other religions to decide which one was the "real" one, thus leaving all others to be created by the devil. I am also sure you didn't become religious merely because of what country you were born in or what your parents believe.
The "scientific people" only dismiss it because of factual evidence.
Which sin do you talk of? being homosexual? sex before marriage? because these are fine by me
@indie4life23 I know with every fiber of my being that biblical Christianity is the one and only true saving religion given to mankind by God for the salvation of the sinner.
In all eternity ,the one true God who is Holy ,never forgave sin NOT EVER.
to live in this age of Gods grace is a blessing you simply cannot comprehend.
And it only comes by one name. Yashua the Messiah (JESUS CHRIST)
He is indeed the one true God. the eternal word who became human flesh to redeem us.
@Remogogy Unfortunately for you, knowing with your "ever fiber" just is not good enough for an argument on this level. If you cannot provide decent, substantial evidence for something you believe in, you really should not commit to it so wholly.
I will select another very basic argument against God- how can there be so many terrible acts of violence in this world (very very often due to opposing religions) if God is both omnipotent and omnipresent ? it simply cannot be, it is completely false
Clearly, sir, you've never read a single word of the Old Testament, nor intellectualized a word of what Jesus himself said. You've been bottle-fed the insipid words of your pastor, who has clearly cherry-picked the bible to the point of uselessness. Please do stop typing.
When publicly presenting the view that all suffering is universally meaningless one must disregard the possibility that many people may actually require an ‘imaginary’ God in order to function. It is impossible to know whether attacking religion is more socially helpful than harmful. One must have irrational faith or rash egotism to come to such a conclusion.
In the fervor of prejudice it is possible to loose site of the amorality of reason. People can be moral without belief in a god, but a person cannot preach of morality without belief. The presumption of an accidental godless existence logically leads to the conclusion that all values and morals are imaginary and open to debate; it only takes one amoral view to contradict all other moral views if all morality stems from the same objectively meaningless reality.
I said to my mother, "They believe in god!!!". She then said, yes, but they don't have it "right", only we do. I knew even then that there was something wrong with that. They were nice people. I liked them, so I couldn't understand how they could have done anything so wrong. That was the beginning of atheism for me. When I went to church, I disliked it more and more. I questioned everything about it. Especially why they were right and other people were wrong. I did not get that.
When I was 4 or 5 years old, I had been indoctrinated into the protestant faith. Next door there lived a family of Catholics of Italian descent. My mother made a lot of fun of them. She told me they didn't believe in god. One day I saw my neighbour in her garden, and the conversation went like this: "Are you catholic?" "Yes" "Do you believe in god?" "Of course" My mom says catholics aren't christian" ":Of course we are" she said. I was confused, and went back home.
That guy in front row most have felt the extreme need to vanish into thin air for putting his foot in his mouth for asking magnificent Hitchens, such stupid question. He didn't know of course that rats don't stand a chance in presence of a lion.
Please visit my channel for the unpopular truth about homosexuality.
A person does not need hatred or any kind of phobia in order to acknowledge important differences between heterosexual attraction / behavior / marriage / adoption and homosexual attraction / behavior / marriage / adoption. Even non-religious people know this.
Homosexual activists, with support from the media, have succeeded at framing themselves as noble victims; it's an effective way to push a social agenda.
those fellows on the front left rows were obvious members of a christian sect and their spokesman thought he could throw Hitch off with that question only to get an enormous HITCHSLAP!
Blah blah blah. Many call to god now while they're alive, lots of African Christians and god lets them starve. If he existed your god would be an utter twat.
Wow... Very powerful words. Almost violent in force, yet totally inspiring. I'm trying to imagine how it would feel to hear these words if i was a believing Christian.
tholics that sheltered Jews during the holocaust, this does not deny the plain evidence. Hitlers motto for women was 'children, kitchen, CHURCH', all soldiers were forced to take an oath to GOD whilst being sworn in, on the soldiers belts was written their support of god. Hitler was baptised and never renounced it!
Stalin's was, I admit contra-religion but this does not rule religion out as a motive. The origins of such totalitarian regimes all lie in the idea of certainty, in one true leader.
I think it may also prove helpful to some of the viewers here to try to evaluate many of the more strident claims of the anti-theist critique ("brights") from a ideological/ metaphysics perspective. Check out the recent article by Jackson Lears in the May 16, 2011 issue of the The Nation entitled "Same Old New Atheism" .The article offers a compelling analysis of Sam Harris' works. Consideration is given to general secular social perspectives
ess being that works against practically all scientific evidence, you shall be condemned to an eternity of the worst physical and mental punishment imaginable.
I will neither accept the fact that two of the worst dictatorships of the 20th century were secular. Let me start with Nazi Germany. Right unto it's dissolution in 1945 Hitler was officially directly supported by the roman catholic church. Though despite the many christians like to pacify themselves by quoting the isolated groups of Ca
of politicians, the torture and susequent murder of galileo for explain the solar system, the list goes on and on and on.
All of these actions took place under 'divine' authority by people like you who claim they know god's will.
I also begin to wonder whether you actually beared to listen to one word of Hitchens speech. Have you forgotten whilst blinded by gods apparent majesty that your religion holds a message at it's very heart telling you that if you do not have blind faith in a meaningl
For such a convinced/brainwashed Christian you clearly have not read the part of the bible where GOD orders the genocide of the caanites; the killing of hundreds of innocent children. How do you explain the crusades, the burning of thousands of innocent women in europe due to Christianity's labelling of them as witches, the torture of many more thousands for daring to own a bible written in english by Thomas More who was recently made, by the pope, the patron saint
I know well what your god is like. Your god strikes dead any who simply touch the Ark of the Covenant accidentally. Your god stones to death the woman who remarries. Your god dashes disobedient children against stones. Your god kills the homosexual. Your god puts to the sword pregnant women. I've had quite enough of your god. Time to take him back home and pray to him in solitude, much as he bid you to.
Yes, Mr Hitchens, I can in fact think of all manner of vices& gross sins an authentic adherent of western monotheism & Christianity would NEVER DO.Unlike HItler or Stalin, a Christian would never seek to murder millions of pple & commit mass murder or starve masses of pple. Christian literature inveighs against all manner of moral vice & explains the self-murder we do when one sins. Also, Christianity DOES NOT teach God was inactive for centuries; God was ALWAY
the only thing made clear in your false allegations is that, like your hero(es) you are very proud, disbelieving & spiritually opaque.If I may say so, your situation is a compelling example of why Jesus says to all men, you must be born again. A proud person certainly thinks like you; but a person who seeks God sincerely & who trusts in Jesus has an 'endowment' of light & truth. I can only wish yo well - Jesus did say have everlasting life' the proud & sinful have the 'wrath' of God (even now)
@TempusFugit101 Hes no longer a socialist and socialism is not a religion. Socialism is a hell lot better than the cannibalistic system you probably love called capitalism.
@TheDethBringer666 Interesting analogy. If anything is cannibalistic, it's socialism. Socialism is all about confiscating and redistributing wealth, at the same time discouraging people from creating it. It's parasitic, it needs a host (capitalism) to feed on. Capitalism on the other hand, does not need socialism.
@TempusFugit101 Its not redistribution, its equal distribution. The only redistribution would be during the move to socialism away from capitalism. Though the fault in the system is the monetary system its self because essentially whatever system it is that is used its just a greater or lesser evil. The lesser being socialism where profit is less important to the needs of the people. I don't see how anyone can argue for such a self destructive system, just watch this... /watch?v=W9yU1Gtt0Ik
@TheDethBringer666 "Equal distribution" - how warm and fuzzy that sounds. Pity that it doesn't work. As you may have noticed, in the real world, some people are harder working than others. Some are lazy. Some people are smarter with their money and invest it well. Others piss it away on booze or drugs. Some people are more daring and willing to start a business, others prefer the security of someone else providing their employment. Your plan guarantees nobody will be bothered to create wealth
@TempusFugit101 Alright, fight nature and continue your little barbaric social darwinist society. I'll be looking forward to the next world economic collapse in a few years.
are u stupid, i wouldnt be surprised; u freaking want big fucken brother! thats the evil. u want the government to watch ur every fucken move; ur fucken insane my friend; by the freaking way, why is it always leading back to israel; israel is the biggest blood sucking bastards on this earth u dushbag. google will even fucken tell u that!
@reafdaw01 Thanks for your concern. Could you be a little more specific about what I did that requires professional help? If it is everything beneath "Remogogy wrote," those aren't my opinions, they are Remogogy's. I objected to his statement being hidden, and I think I know enough about Christopher Hitchens to think that he would also object. In general, intellectuals aren't in favor of censoring discenting opinions.
Until just now, I didn't think there was a way to shout someone down via the use of a keyboard. There is. If you want to do it, all you have to do is be among the people who click the Vote Down button. While I agree that there are many comments worthy of being removed from decent discourse, a dissenting opinion should not be one of them. Remogogy made a perfectly polite and acceptable comment. There is no reason for it to be hidden.
Whether I agree with him or not is completely irrelevant.
Why don't christian keep their religion to themselves and Atheist won't have any reason go about debunking it, and they could stay home and would love to.
@aidan24100 there is no full recovery for cancer really unless medical science (not god) cures him.. countless children have perished because their ignorant and selfish parents would not let them visit a doctor to get real help and they DIE! How can you seriously think prayer works if you cant even pray for your child to be well... and if god has a plan.. why pray anyways? You want god to change his plan??
I am an ex muslim and i will try to explain to you what he is trying to say.
As a child I learned that we are living near the end times and how judgment day will separate the good people from the bad people. I am also Palestinian so they told me stories how we are going to force all the Jews out of Palestine. I was also told that Jesus will come back and break the cross to prove to Christians Islam is the right religion. people who truly believe will want this scenario to occur, get it?
@Hamjam117 Why would Jesus create a religion only to deny it upon his return? You can't explain the dichotomy between Christianity and Islam because they both borrowed their respective religions from Jew-deism which borrowed it's religion from Mesopotamia and Egypt. Don't you see one religion begets another. Check the first religions, Hinduism and the worship of the Annunaki (( THOSE WHO DOWN FROM HEAVEN CAME))
"If god has the power to stop evil but not the will, then such a god is malicious. If this god however has the will to stop evil but not the power, then it is impotent. An anthropomorphic god must therefore be either impotent or malicious if it truly exists, otherwise why is there evil?"
@IndigoApostle Evil exist because mentally, man is still living in the cave when greed was a survival technique
If you don't steal from or kill off your competition you die. but in the modern world where there is abundance, predatory behavior is unnecessary but somehow the Gene governing primitive behavior is still switched on and untill scientist figure how to turn it off, we will continue to have evil in the world.

@Tarn1968 and then what? what do u do when you've done everything a countless number of times and no longer have any desire at all, to do any of it any more. then what? you will get tired of being around.
Tripp if you really asked for God to show you ,than he will.
Don't be surprised when some strange things begin to happen in your life.
Proof?
V.9 “And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.
notice the word see?
you see with your eyes do you not?
This was written 2000 years ago.
How are all different nations and tongues going to SEE this event taking place in Jerusalem?
Why do you ask for proof when you know that Faith is required?
But i will give you some proof.
Danial 12 .the time of the end, when many will rush here and there, and knowledge will increase."
The Nation Israel reborn in 1948 after 2000 years of Diaspora is a big proof.
Their are others. if your really interested their are many web sites.
Search your feelings my friend. Let yourself be Hit by the gravity and reality of it all .their is big stuff coming down on this little planet of ours.
@Remogogy "many will rush here and there, and knowledge will increase." Are you serious? That's your proof? People will go here and there and know more things? When in the history of the world wouldn't that have applied? When in the next thousands of years will it not apply? The nation of Israel being stolen is not proof of anything more than the absurdity of men.
@Remogogy Isn't odd how the world looked just like this chaos 2000 years ago as well? God is not a god of death... Maybe you haven't read the old testament? I just asked your imaginary friend to show me if Jesus is god, nothing happened.
@Remogogy eternal life? who wants that? oh sure the first million years might not be so bad. but after a while you'll want a release. you'll want to die. and without death to give you a release your once happy heavin will become nothing more than an eternal prison. a prison u cant escape even thru suicide. and then you'll be spending eternity in miserable agony. basicaly you'll be in hell no matter what. thats what would happen if god were real. that really sound like something u want?
@Remogogy That's because History repeats itself and all prophesies are self fulfilling. There have always been wars and rumors of wars. Nothing new there. Further prophesy negates Free Will. Free Will. get it.
@SWilliamJackson Jesus is God , The one true God , the creator of Heaven and earth.
So yes He is very unique. All other gods are false and frauds.
2000 years ago God became a man in order to pay the penalty of sin for us.
That God-Man was Jesus Christ the Lord.
The only savior and redeemer.
Their is massive deception on college campuses. They lump Jesus in with all the subterfuge and then puff you up with pride in your own intellect to get you to dismiss the only one who can save your soul.
BlaBlaBla... That is all you are saying... Where is the evidence for a god... There have been none for over 2000 years, but good luck and keep wasting your life!
@is1337Correct Wasting my life? my life is pure Joy. I spend my days More happy about my life than most people. And why do you ask for evidence when it's faith that is required?
the Very solar system and the sun and the moon and the stars and nature are ample evidence that their is a God.
And the Bible says because of those things ,People like you have no excuse before God for dismissing
@Remogogy you show us evidence for the talking snake, the parting of the red sea and the inevitable remains of the Hebrew slaves who perished during the 40 year long march towards Canaan, archeological evidence of human beings who were 800 years old at death. You show us evidence for these and we'll start teaching the bible in history classes. Until then you are just delusional believers in fictional stuff.
@Remogogy you could have used that argument at any time during the last two thousand years and you would still be talking through your arse , you need to get out more and i dont mean to attend church ....
@Sqirril No, no: ALL religions and ALL forms of superstition and irrationality are negative! Even when they do good things, they do them for the wrong reasons...
99 out 100 Frothing Fundamentalist Extremist Zealots Agree: Frothing Fundamentalist Extremist Zealotry is Awesome and everyone should try it....and should be REQUIRED to try it.
@Remogogy Unfortunately God was the one who brought about evil in the world if you believe all powerful beings.
If it s God, than it is all powerful. If evil was not in it's plan, evil would not be in it's plan. Evil exists.
Therefore evil was in it's plan. Why would a loving being create constant conflict, dying, hatred, famine, etc?
If your answer is something like, "We must show that we are worthy of it's love." Don't even reply. Nothing that loves would CREATE something that destroys love
I love hitchens and have a strong disposition myself towards religion.....my problem is the nature of the cosmos itself ie philosophers like Schopenhauer and the objectivity of nihilism...
Again it's all start bcuz of 9/11 like he said and I like his answer religion has big impact on people but again is religion the only thing to blame? bcuz now anything happen in world we blame it on religion but we never ask ourselves who's taking control of this religion? this people who always in high power using religion as great tool to control everyone in this world for their own benefit. The message shouldn't be let fight religion but let fight the people who in control of religion.
see when he shut that rabbi harold kushner up re circumcision - i found support in this man - he told the truth and that has been known to get people killed if they're magnetic, charismatic and can as he says "capture an audience"
Okay. because of your bad english ther I am not sure if I got this right. But... Are you saying that God exists and the try and prove it by saying that he must exist because hitchens didn't protect his body from cancer?
If that is so.... I think you need to check how cancer is caused. Theres quite a few ways you can get it and that has nothing to do with the intelligence level of a person. Same as getting a cold is not influenced by how smart you are.
@strangerlover11 i agree with thedutchman01. You do not properly understand how disease occurs, least of all, cancer. To say Hitchens is smart but still got cancer, therefore it's proof that god did it, reveals your ignorance of physiology.
Besides, why would you worship a god who causes random cancer, disease, and death? Even to the good and innocent?
@strangerlover11 How do you explain the suffering, disease, and death of innocent babies? They know nothing of religious laws, and thus cannot be guilty. Why does your god punish innocent babies?
@rmcdaniel423 You have asked again the same stupid question.the innocent rather babies or adult
who cause them dying..they are dying because of criminal hands for that we also can not blame god did it
the Hiter killed 6 millions jews is god did it nooooooo the Hitler did it and his party did it .but why this happening because of us we means the public choose a wrong person to be our hero or to be our minister or president that also become our mistake not god..you always asking wrong question.
@Q8379 I know You dont believe in religion.if you live to see everything the QURAN mentions in the coming future, am sure you will understand ISLAM. sun will rise from the west, moon will split, arabia peninsula will turn green and lakes will flow as once was, 3 major earthquakes will happen, appearing antichrist (ON HIS APPEARANCE, ATHIEST WILL BELIEVE THAT HE IS GOD.

@itchygonads you atheists are ever looking for evidence when God has clearly said that FAITH is required.
But their is plenty of evidence for those who care to look.
Bible prophecy concerning Christ Jesus as well as these End times we are living in are ample proof.
But you will choose to focus on the irrelevant. when your arguments fail (And they always do) you resort to name calling.

@indie4life23 The Gods of all false religions are in fact demons.
Do you believe in the spirit world? I assure you it exists.
and 99.9 % of religions are false and created by the devil in order to deceive people into following them.
Or to get scientific people of today to dismiss it all as hocus pocus ,hence discarding the diamond in the rough.
The true God has put forth one true and saving Faith that comes through the substitutionary death of Jesus Christ.
Why?
Because sin is that serious!

The "scientific people" only dismiss it because of factual evidence.

@Remogogy Unfortunately for you, knowing with your "ever fiber" just is not good enough for an argument on this level. If you cannot provide decent, substantial evidence for something you believe in, you really should not commit to it so wholly.

When publicly presenting the view that all suffering is universally meaningless one must disregard the possibility that many people may actually require an ‘imaginary’ God in order to function. It is impossible to know whether attacking religion is more socially helpful than harmful. One must have irrational faith or rash egotism to come to such a conclusion.
sheepinavacuum 2 months ago
In the fervor of prejudice it is possible to loose site of the amorality of reason. People can be moral without belief in a god, but a person cannot preach of morality without belief. The presumption of an accidental godless existence logically leads to the conclusion that all values and morals are imaginary and open to debate; it only takes one amoral view to contradict all other moral views if all morality stems from the same objectively meaningless reality.

I said to my mother, "They believe in god!!!". She then said, yes, but they don't have it "right", only we do. I knew even then that there was something wrong with that. They were nice people. I liked them, so I couldn't understand how they could have done anything so wrong. That was the beginning of atheism for me. When I went to church, I disliked it more and more. I questioned everything about it. Especially why they were right and other people were wrong. I did not get that.

Please visit my channel for the unpopular truth about homosexuality.
A person does not need hatred or any kind of phobia in order to acknowledge important differences between heterosexual attraction / behavior / marriage / adoption and homosexual attraction / behavior / marriage / adoption. Even non-religious people know this.
Homosexual activists, with support from the media, have succeeded at framing themselves as noble victims; it's an effective way to push a social agenda.

Capitalism on the other hand, does not need socialism.

@TempusFugit101 Its not redistribution, its equal distribution. The only redistribution would be during the move to socialism away from capitalism. Though the fault in the system is the monetary system its self because essentially whatever system it is that is used its just a greater or lesser evil. The lesser being socialism where profit is less important to the needs of the people. I don't see how anyone can argue for such a self destructive system, just watch this... /watch?v=W9yU1Gtt0Ik

Jesus isn't that special.

@SWilliamJackson Jesus is God , The one true God , the creator of Heaven and earth.
So yes He is very unique. All other gods are false and frauds.
2000 years ago God became a man in order to pay the penalty of sin for us.
That God-Man was Jesus Christ the Lord.
The only savior and redeemer.
Their is massive deception on college campuses. They lump Jesus in with all the subterfuge and then puff you up with pride in your own intellect to get you to dismiss the only one who can save your soul.

BlaBlaBla... That is all you are saying... Where is the evidence for a god... There have been none for over 2000 years, but good luck and keep wasting your life!

@is1337Correct Wasting my life? my life is pure Joy. I spend my days More happy about my life than most people. And why do you ask for evidence when it's faith that is required?
the Very solar system and the sun and the moon and the stars and nature are ample evidence that their is a God.
And the Bible says because of those things ,People like you have no excuse before God for dismissing
the truth with such Mocking flippancy.
Dont worry it will be made clear to you one day.

Faith is when you have no reason to believe so; as in you did not use reason nor logic to come to the conclusion...
The universe is the example of nature at work, not a deity.
And now you use circular argumentations: the bible says so -> god wrote the bible -> the bible says so...
You have fear of hell to worry about, I don't.
No it won't because there will never be any evidence nor proof and faith in thinks just cause is worthless; but good luck trying to provide ones!

@Remogogy you show us evidence for the talking snake, the parting of the red sea and the inevitable remains of the Hebrew slaves who perished during the 40 year long march towards Canaan, archeological evidence of human beings who were 800 years old at death. You show us evidence for these and we'll start teaching the bible in history classes. Until then you are just delusional believers in fictional stuff.

@Remogogy "Isnt it odd that the world looks so much the way the Bible described the Chaos of the end time world."
War and chaos has always existed.
"Listen ,doesnt anyone find it odd that a man who lived 2000 years ago still has the greatest name in the world?"

@MrStewart149 no your wrong about that.
the sign of the nation Israel , and the fact that it's people and culture and nation were reborn after 2000
years of exile is the big difference between now and the last 2000 years.
people who made the argument for the end times before Israel became a nation in 1948 were speaking prematurely.
NOW THE END TIMES ARE HERE>

@MrStewart149 Yes I'm dumb I admit it. I have a simple message from a simple mind. Believe and repent before it's to late.
Israel is a nation again after 2000 years. Men travel to and fro and knowledge has been increased.
Mankind has the weaponry to destroy himself and the planet,and unless the Lord intervenes ,HE WILL.
earthquakes ,natural disaster,s War,s and rumors of war,s are increasing.-Scoffers abound.
Homosexuality is rampant.the world is filled with violence.
JESUS IS COMING SOON!

this is so sad.
While its true that 99 out of 100 religions are very negative and have caused much harm and countless death.
The one God who created the world is Not the one who brings about the evil in the world.
Their is a vicious enemy of mans soul that has alway distracted mankind from the only true God and the fact that He love us.
Jesus Christ is the Gift of God to sinful man so that man can come back to the living God.
I for one recognize friend from foe.
Hitchens does not.

@Remogogy Unfortunately God was the one who brought about evil in the world if you believe all powerful beings.
If it s God, than it is all powerful. If evil was not in it's plan, evil would not be in it's plan. Evil exists.
Therefore evil was in it's plan. Why would a loving being create constant conflict, dying, hatred, famine, etc?
If your answer is something like, "We must show that we are worthy of it's love." Don't even reply. Nothing that loves would CREATE something that destroys love

The message shouldn't be let fight religion but let fight the people who in control of religion.

@strangerlover11
Okay. because of your bad english ther I am not sure if I got this right. But... Are you saying that God exists and the try and prove it by saying that he must exist because hitchens didn't protect his body from cancer?
If that is so.... I think you need to check how cancer is caused. Theres quite a few ways you can get it and that has nothing to do with the intelligence level of a person. Same as getting a cold is not influenced by how smart you are.
thedutchman01 1 year ago
@strangerlover11 i agree with thedutchman01. You do not properly understand how disease occurs, least of all, cancer. To say Hitchens is smart but still got cancer, therefore it's proof that god did it, reveals your ignorance of physiology.
Besides, why would you worship a god who causes random cancer, disease, and death? Even to the good and innocent?
rmcdaniel423 1 year ago
@rmcdaniel423 .You have asked wonderful question why we should follow a god which causes such a
disaeas right?.and for that God himself answer .what he says do not harm your own hand against
you.mashallah..now why we got disease..because Allah means god telling us do not do the things
which harm you.but we doing so this is our mistake not god mistake...any country you live you have to follow
the country law but if you failed you will be penalty now that don't blame the country..

@strangerlover11 How do you explain the suffering, disease, and death of innocent babies? They know nothing of religious laws, and thus cannot be guilty. Why does your god punish innocent babies?
rmcdaniel423 1 year ago
@rmcdaniel423 You have asked again the same stupid question.the innocent rather babies or adult
who cause them dying..they are dying because of criminal hands for that we also can not blame god did it
the Hiter killed 6 millions jews is god did it nooooooo the Hitler did it and his party did it .but why this happening because of us we means the public choose a wrong person to be our hero or to be our minister or president that also become our mistake not god..you always asking wrong question.
