Is that your best shot? Shockingly naive story. If you honestly think that your story proves the existence of an all powerful god then you must be sadly a very deluded person. Its akin to a child believing in Father Christmas or the tooth fairy. If the only act an all powerful god can do is stop a piece of chalk breaking then he aint much of a god is he? Lets see him stop wars, stop disease and stop stupid people putting videos on youtube.
this is nothing but a chain letter. i have to ask: why is it that when people post chain letters saying the world will be destroyed in 2012, it's considered silly. yet, this chain letter, which is just as silly, is respected by christians? FAIL
@NonPointRulz101 is it such a bad thing that christians are inspired by this, it may be a chain letter, but unlike most, this one is nice and empowering for those who may share those beliefs....... why cant we just accept people for who they are and what they believe in?
@TheBerto2010 Forgive me for not clarifying what I meant. I know that this story seems to be nothing more than allegory, BUT, what I hate is that people keep calling this a true story, which is false. I have never heard of a professor who is allowed to insult his students simply because they don't share the same religious beliefs as him. That is what makes this story false.
@NonPointRulz101 OK, it is just that you called this thing silly and that fact that it is respected by christians constitutes a "FAIL" Most stories meant to inspire are just that, stories. There is nothing silly with this video.
@TheBerto2010 Again, I will state this: There is nothing wrong with this video if people know that this is nothing more than an allegory. BUT, in the beginning of this video, you can clearly see that it says "this is a true story...". THAT is a lie, and people shouldn't think it is.
@NonPointRulz101 You are right, however, I am pretty sure that this video is not to be taken literally and those who do take it as a true story are very gullible and will get their wake up call soon enough, but I like this story. Lying may be a sin in their religion, but I'm sure sharing stories like this one can't also be a sin as well.........This is a very good discussion btw, it is nice to talk to someone who doesn't curse and yell to try to get their point across.
The unfortunate thing is, I didn't even want to comment on this video. People should be entitled to believe what they want, no matter how ridiculous, how unrealistic, or how damnright idealistic it may be - however, when I saw at 3:28 that this should essentually be rammed down the throats of aethetists, therefore interfering with MY beliefs, I felt, surely then, it's okay to interfere with yours.
Or should we all just leave you alone while you try to forcefeed us God and such scaremongering?
@Razzattack666 its the same reasoning behind the attack from the media and different lobbyist groups along with the government trying to take out our religion....everyone has rights...but we shouldn't lose our rights to it because it offends a small group..
I'd find it more offensive to w/hold what I believe 2 be the truth, out of fear of offending & allow someone to continue in the dark, especially when based on my faith, such ignorance leads 2 a miserable eternity in hell, then to share; i'm not at all saying 2 shove it down someones throat...
"But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them?" Rom.10
And who on earth are you to infer that I am in the dark because I do not believe what you believe?
Who are you to infer that what I believe is wrong?
Who are you to infer that my life is miserable without some ludicrous false hope in my life?
Who are you to infer that what I believe is ignorant?
You are the perfect example of why I loathe Christianity. The pretentious, self-righteous crap inferring that, no matter what I believe, it is wrong because I do not believe in God.
@Razzattack666 I completely agree....more or less. No one should tell u what to believe in or say you are wrong because you don't believe in something they do, however, when you say you hate the entire religion due to the acts of a few, thats where I must call you out. You shouldn't hate the whole religion just because you don't share it. What you should do instead is realize that there are people in this world that will not agree with you, and to hate them for it or their religion is wrong
I sincerely apologize for my comment offending you; my words probably mean little, as sincerity is a hard thing to convey over the internet. All i can say is that my life has changed, that I went from darkness to light when i became a follower of Jesus. It hasn't been some fanciful imagery, & until you know what my life has looked like in my relatively short time here, maybe you won't believe me. I am not trying to write something else that may offend you, again i am sorry.
This video's base theory is that Jesus took the time to stop a piece of chalk from hitting the ground. This proves, therefore, that "God" is omnipotent. This also proves, however, that God is malevolent, as if he has the ability to do what the video described, he could end suffering and such at a whim. Therefore, this video proves that God is either nonexistant as the story is fake, or that god is malevolent, having power to stop cruelty, but choosing not to.
Would you not tell North Koreans that their government is corrupt given the chance? Don't disprove of people who are trying to remove the blindness of ignorance, no matter how thick and layered it may be.
I am sorry, but I won't join your faith as its caused too much death. I'd rather be an Atheist, than be part of something that ended many innocent lives.
the story is FALSE, is it coincidence that ONLY theist PROPAGANDA mills tell this story? besides this chalk doesn't always break when you drop it anyway, in fact most of the time it doesn't, i should know i play darts occasionally and regularly drop the chalk. chalk may snap easy but it isn't so brittle that it snaps when dropped from head height, sml4jesus please don't spread propaganda it's pointless, and yes i am laughing at you.
@Sydlyo266637 sydlyo ask yourself why only creationist propaganda mills post up this sort of story. there has never been a class at that university that even discusses the existence of god even in passing, 1 time out of 21 is hardly valid proof of anything and would be counted as erroneous data in any experiment. what it comes down to is the story being completely false, there is a similar urban legend about a chemist who drops a beaker they are all different variations of the same lie.
Well I still think that the message stands clear, whether the idiot story is true or not, (which, by the way, has no effect on the message) if you stick up for God, no matter what anybody thinks, then He does amazing things @ScubaSctimpy
@Sydlyo266637 for any of this to count as a "message", you must first prove the existence of a god, then prove the existence of your god as opposed to anybody else's and finally prove that your god does in fact intervene in the universe, so are you prepared to provide evidence of all three, otherwise it isn't a "message" but an outright lie. and what does your book of fables say about lies?
Sometimes you have to believe things you can't see. I can't control anyone besides myself, so don't blame me for this not true, or what other people think. @ScubaSctimpy
Just posted this as my featured video on my channel to hopefully open the eyes of some people whom wish to prove me wrong (: Thanks for this amazing video
If I ever waste my time telling someone about this useless internet-weed then I shall do so with laughter.
About the little story: So what? Are you so incredibly ignorant that you would see this as a "proof" of God's existence? If yes, why would he not choose a more substantial evidence, such as a manifestation or otherwise? I laugh at the ignorance of this video.
that is sad how ppl think twice about uploading something like this, and jesus went on the cross and got hurt for us, and we cant even tell about a video like this caz we're scared about what others think?? thats just sad.
@HelloKezhia that explains why you are convinced by this argument, 1. the story has been confirmed as nothing more than an urban legend, there is no class of 300 students at usc that even discusses the existence of a god in passing. 2. chalk doesn't always break when you drop it anyway, in fact it rarely breaks simply by dropping it. and 3. the argument itself is a fallacy called argument from personal experience, in other words this entire video is an invalid pointless waste of time.
this really touched my heart .. i never alwase thought god was real. but now i really know without a doubt he is. thank you so much for passing this on to me.
ill be sure to pass it down to most of all people :]
this is the most cliche emo story ive ever laid my eyes...god exists if u want him to exist. so shut the fuck up and if u believe in god, good, if not, i doubt ur gonna try and convince a group of college kids that he doesnt ..get a life u fuckin christians
Since when does chalk shatter into a hundred pieces when you drop it? Surely that would make chalk extremely inconvenient; I know I drop a board pen often enough for it to be damned annoying if it shattered every time I did so.
If God is the reason my pens don't shatter every time then...yay?
@monkeyrune98 hate to break it to you but that feeling you're getting is just that, a feeling. a feeling you can get without believing in god, true religion is a nice idea and i can respect it if you have no other way of going on in life, but chances are you have another way of going on and chances are you can very easily replicate the feeling you have without that idea.
so, the chalk slipped out of his hand on accident 1 out of 20 times...and that's proof of the Christian God. Is this supposed to be sarcastic? No I'm not laughing. This is imbecile.
Let's stop arguing, people. We are all AWARE of the situation in Africa and the 3rd world countries, yet some people do NOTHING. So why don't we just start HELPING the oppressed people in our own simple ways like donating or whatever brilliant idea your SMART brain come up with. And another thing, we should not rely EVERYTHING on God. We have the intellect and the CAPABILITIES to ameliorate their situation. Last point, God doesn't work like MAGIC. Tsup to you to analyze that. ~Peace :]
Wow it was a coincidence he was pissed, he missed the drop so it slid, but it still hit the ground so you have no "REAL" proof that god exists, I don't not beleive in him I'm just not going to truly beleive in him until I get some REAL proof he exists.
And you'll get it.... When Jesus shows you the holes in the palms of hands from him being nailed to the cross, after you die... But he loves you just as much as he ever will, just as much as the rest of us, even if you keep shoving him away... @HornedForehead
This world is goign to hell BECAUSE of christianity. You "christians" believe that god can save everybody. WHY THE HELL HASN'T HE DONE SO?!?!?!?!?!
If you god is supposedly ALL POWERFUL, then why hasnt he ended the suffering, all the mayhem, the chaos? Why hasn't he ended it all? Why hasn't this "rapture" happened yet? The "rapture" is supposedly the even that will take every true christian to heaven. Well, why hasn't it happened yet? The world is already in hell right now?
First of all, God didn't end all the chaos because He wanted to test our patience, our capacity and our actions. If you don't believe me, you can go buy a Bible and read the book of Job.
Secondly, the way you put it "The world is already in hell right now?" is what your opinion is. The moment you read the book of Job you may or may not realise it, but still, the book of Revelation talks about Jesus. You can read it or question a church pastor about it. Tell me once you're done
John 3:16 says: "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only begotton son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.". God gave his only son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross of calvary, to save all of us, Christians and non-Christians, from all of our sin (Which we believe is what is causing all the chaos).
Romans 6:23 says: "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Or through Christ Jesus our Lord."
Sin is what makes us sinners. God hates sin but He loves the sinners. Now you may be thinking "Sin? Huh! What bullshit!" . Read the book of Genesis then. Adam and Eve both ate the fruit from the tree of knowledge of all good and evil all because of a serpant. (Satan, or the devil.). Adam and Eve both didn't listen to God, that's how sin came about. Christians base their lives on the principle of Exodus 20. It talks about the 10 commandments that we Christians should / must obey.
Look, I'm not forcing you to turn to Christianity. I'm just giving examples from the Bible to prove that He exist. You think "If you believe in God, where is He then?!"
That's what Good Friday was for. Jesus Christ died, and rose on the third day (Sunday). He resurrected and is NOW seated at the right hand of The Father (God Almighty) in heaven. If you need more proof, you can go to a church and listen to what the pastor preaches about. You can even ask him questions.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
First of all, don't fucking preach to me, you damn Christian. There is NO proof that Jesus or "god" ever existed. You're all believing in false hope, lies, deciet. All of you.
First of all, FUCK CHRISTIANITY!!! IT'S ALL A SHAM!!!!
There are 100% logical reasons for why the chalk didn't break.
Christianity was ripped off of hundreds of other religions, including my own. I hope all your so called "Christians" know that all of your "Saints" were really WICCAN!!!!!
Why don't you sit there and explain the whole way the world and everything was created, Mr. "know it all" Your logics against us Christians are low and immature, you really have no knowlage of proving our religion wrong. Your probably a one who believs in Evolution L0l. Let me just say this. Charles Darwin isn't gonna save you in the end. It's only the truth
I am Jewish. This video is wonderful. I am pretty sure that if I said that God exsisted he wouldn't do it but I have to pray and he will achive my goal. Think about this video for a sec and reflect what has been said here.
People can believe what they want. I believe in science. Whilst still many people believe in a book written a couple of thousand years ago and translated many times over. That's their choice.
Whoever made up this inane story has obviously never been to a real college. News flash: atheist professors don't try to make points by dropping chalk. They do it by presenting facts that have been proven by science and by studying things on their own.
Discussion of Jesus is suppressed at school because of... y'know... Seperation of church and state. I'm not going to point out the many other retarded hilarities in this video. People are pathetic, especially retarded christian people.
i'm not muslim , i'm Christian, (roman catholic), tha reason i've said that coz these idiots that don't believe in God, still watches Christian videos , WTF is their problem anw???
Well considering that the internet is available for anyone and that I can have pretty much limiless freedoms on the internet... No. Why don't you go join the other christians on another crusade and die.
to all those wo do not believe baecause the chalk was just an incident and to those who reasons that if god exists, he would stop it personally, i say you have a point. BUT if you are alone managing an entire school, could you handle it? you could, but you cannot fulfill every needs.Imagine managing an entire world, would you fulfill a dumb request about a chalk when you could fulfill a grater wish. Think about it.
look at it: africa prays for good health, they did not get it BUT not a lot of people dies on that place, and when someone dies, someone dies clean not like america, when someone dies, it is because of poverty, corruption, because of all the deeds that is wrong
Greenwoodmusic 81% of American adults identify themselves with a specific religion: 76.5% (159 million) of Americans identify themselves as Christian. More than one billion world wide. IF you think with logic and common sense. than shouldn't Logic and common sense tell you that out of all the people who are Christians that many of them think the same way you do. With logic and common sense.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Sorry, but this whole "story" even if it is true..does not prove the existence of any god whatsoever. A random fluke like a piece of chalk falling to the ground does not prove god exists. Maybe if it stopped and hovered for a few seconds and god came down and said "Hey, stop fucking with me. I've got better shit to do than catch your damn chalk" I might possibly consider believing it but sorry...no dice. I'm an atheist because I think logic and common sense are just as valid ways to live by
@greenwoodmusic its not about just a piece of chalk. its about the strength of faith you have with God. and if you're just gonna hate, you might as well stop fucking with people who care. (:
What school is this. What professor taught it, what kid stood up. This story is a lie. No school would ever keep a teacher employed for 30 years if he spent his entire course pressing his religious beliefs on students. Find faith in other ways then just making up stories. Oh wait... thats the bible.
i use offensive language towards these people because these people are going out of there way to try and prove to others that God does not exist.
and im not a hard core christian, so maybe thats where im lacking my morals when it comes to calling names. i want these people to feel stupid, and i want others to view these people as being stupid. so if it takes being called an idiot, than so be it. They disrespect me, and My God, they deserve to be called at least one name.
alright first of all prove to me gods real?? oh? u cant do that alright ill believe in god if you can tell me what created him? or if u can tell me what the purpose of religon is? oh its to get to heaven? what then we float around as little spirits living forever?????? no more like religion is created by governments to keep people in line without the law so what a bunch of bullshit that is
ehem...Religion won't save you,but your relationship with God,people just made religions because they have different beliefs,but the truth is,I f you acceted God as your personal savior and believe that God raised Jesus from the dead,your saved and you'll have many blessings
alright first off my response: so what happens to some one who was born in india and was raised as hindu why is that his fault that his parents raised him like that? so poor little achmmed goes to hell what a great religon
..nope,'coz I told you before whatever your religion is,if you know in your heart that there is God not the statues or altars..then you are saved,besides God will show them a sign to how they will know the true God..that's the sense of the holy spirit
the point of the video isnt whether or not God is real, which he is, the point is to stand up for what you believe and dont let anyone else tell you what you can or cannot believe in
Hi TramaTrazz37. Much as I agree with you that God is real, I hope that as believers we would watch our language on others. I do not believe that use of offensive terms in this case will glorify God or encourage pre-believers =)
Anyway, I do share the same heart of standing up for the reality of God =)
For me the person who made this is a real genious and kudos to the people who posted it because this video is just a representation much like the bust of the saints you don't actually worship the statue you respect the representation its not that hard to understand is it?
i have respect to those people who posted here on this page but please search your heart we need to respect each others beliefs and religion
and FAITH is believing something that you cannot see.....
I'm a Christian too and I agree with many that this doesn't really prove anything. Showing this to an atheist isn't going to change his views most probably. Encountering God is something personal. Then again, I guess the message of this is to stand up for your faith.
But anyhow, I think the chalk dropping thing is quite ridiculous.
Try going to Snopes (google it) and type Dropped Chalk in the search box. You will find that this story has been around for many years and has been told about many different schools, It's an urban legend. It's also a load of old baloney.
omg i hate this video, why do all videos about religion have to have dramatic/sad songs. this isnt a sad thing. and it doesnt have a big impact at all, people pretend it does. but honestly? a piece of chalk didnt break. im a christian, but seriously.. give me a break
That proves nothing, and if you look at how this "true" story is, it is just that; a story, not a real incident. If you encourage people to pass this on to us non-Christian people, you are just as bad as the college professor. Let people figure out what they believe in themselves instead of bothering people with your own faith. You're not "saving" anybody. Live and let live.
And the chalk thing is this video, is nothing more than a coincedence. I mean seriously? Nothing can alter the fate of any object or living thing. It can only be changed by choice. The choice can be changed by a higher power, but in this case, it wasn't God, it was the professer, HE was the one carrying the chalk, HE was the one who proceeded to drop it, the incedent that happended when the boy stood up had nothing to do with the fate of the chalk. It was just a slip-up. How do I know? Think.
Seriously, if you Christians say that you are "strong", then why not do everything yourself?! You don't need some person in the clouds fueling you! Food, is you're fuel! You're probably gonna say,"OH HURRDURR GOD MADE FOOD." Bullshit, the only beings who can make their own food is autotrophs, perferably plants. "OH GOD MADE PLANTS!" No, plants have been around longer than religion has itself. So how would you people know?
The reason that we don't do everything ourselves is because WE CAN'T!! We are only flesh, God isn't. We need God to act through us, because on our own, we aren't very strong at all.
Look at where religion has gotten us? Hm, let's see, arguments, war, hatred, shall I go on? I choose science over religion. Religion says that science is too negative, well newsflash: Science is too important to ignore! The only comeback to atheists and agnostics from Christians is,"Oh your wrong because there is someone who I have not felt or seen before, but I know He's there!" People need to guide themselves, and not let someone in the sky do it.
Scientific progress is beginning to yield an abundance of evidence that life itself, and especially intelligent life, is ridiculously hard to come by, given the many fundamental physical constants which each require mind-bogglingly precise values to ensure that life does not become impossible to create.
watch?v=JnWyPIzTOTw
The bible itself says that arguments, war, and hatred are bound to exist in a world that has sin, which exists because God allows us to use free will.
I can know my friend will choose to not go to Anthropology on Mondays because she likes to sleep in and doesn't like that class anyway. That doesn't change that she still has the choice to change her mind and go to class for once.
Just because He knows what we are going to do, doesn't mean He's making us do it. He doesn't change what people do just because He doesn't like it. He knows it will happen, but he doesn't impact because people have choice.
God doesn't cause the wars and hatred. Hatred happens because of the Devil, NOT GOD!!!!! God's personality is LOVE, He doesn't cause wars or diseases, but bad things happen. If you're walking beside a friend that you care about, that friend might trip and fall, you didn't make them fall, but they did. Maybe you couldn't break their fall, but you are there to help them up again.
On the free will comment - the problem with that argument is, let's say your friend decides to go out to breakfast while they are supposed to be in class, and meets the person they end up marrying. Correct me if I'm wrong, but any children of that marriage would have had to be "planned" by God to begin with, meaning that the apparent choice made of not going to class was actually always planned. I hope I phrased that properly =/
If he wore shirt and pants, it should've stopped at the bottom of his shirt, not pass through the pants.(if his shirts r tucked in) or it should've just fell into ground(if his shirts r out) I'd say this video is not trustworthy. I am not saying God doesn't exist but this video is just stupid.
@lovedoctor159: There is direct evidence of evolution at work. Notice that a creature ill-suited for it's environment dies off. Its features become less prominent in generations to come because it does not survive to reproduce. The mutations which allow a species to survive however, will become more and more prominent as individuals with those traits reproduce. This is not blind faith. This is backed by logic and reason.
As a child iv always been brought up in a christion family iv allways new the truth but wanted to do it my own way but if you think like that its impossible to do it your own way , you know in your heart there is a God and he sent his son to die for us im so thankfull that God answerd my prair on the (31st of August 2009) im just waiting for that day the second coming :D its nice to see other christions on youtube
I respect that people have beliefs but this is honestly a propaganda video. I'm honestly frightened by the belief in something like this. So the chalk did not break so what about the genocide of millions going on in our world? Religion will lead to the extinction of mankind, look up historically the genocides going on because of God!
I think its funny, that people try and prove that God is or isn't real by testing him with small acts like not breaking the chalk. And I think its sad that people try to make God non-existent because if they admitted that there is a God, they would have to admit that they are sinners and it means they have to answer for and take responsibility for there actions. But thats why we call it "Faith" believing on Him despite what most people call concrete evidence.
Christianity: Relationship, not religion. God is everywhere, If you insist on believing that God doesn't exist, then you are making a CHOICE not to see him. I've seen things and felt things that leave me in no doubt!
yes i share that same testimony...God has blessed me with so many things and even though i have not yet seen him i have felt him in my mist when i felt soo alone. i should be dead right now and not even typing this but God never lost his faith in me even though my family and a handful of people did. may God continue to reign!! :-)
Is that your best shot? Shockingly naive story. If you honestly think that your story proves the existence of an all powerful god then you must be sadly a very deluded person. Its akin to a child believing in Father Christmas or the tooth fairy. If the only act an all powerful god can do is stop a piece of chalk breaking then he aint much of a god is he? Lets see him stop wars, stop disease and stop stupid people putting videos on youtube.

I sincerely apologize for my comment offending you; my words probably mean little, as sincerity is a hard thing to convey over the internet. All i can say is that my life has changed, that I went from darkness to light when i became a follower of Jesus. It hasn't been some fanciful imagery, & until you know what my life has looked like in my relatively short time here, maybe you won't believe me. I am not trying to write something else that may offend you, again i am sorry.

Oh man, I can't stop laughing!
This video's base theory is that Jesus took the time to stop a piece of chalk from hitting the ground. This proves, therefore, that "God" is omnipotent. This also proves, however, that God is malevolent, as if he has the ability to do what the video described, he could end suffering and such at a whim. Therefore, this video proves that God is either nonexistant as the story is fake, or that god is malevolent, having power to stop cruelty, but choosing not to.

the story is FALSE, is it coincidence that ONLY theist PROPAGANDA mills tell this story? besides this chalk doesn't always break when you drop it anyway, in fact most of the time it doesn't, i should know i play darts occasionally and regularly drop the chalk. chalk may snap easy but it isn't so brittle that it snaps when dropped from head height, sml4jesus please don't spread propaganda it's pointless, and yes i am laughing at you.

@Sydlyo266637 sydlyo ask yourself why only creationist propaganda mills post up this sort of story. there has never been a class at that university that even discusses the existence of god even in passing, 1 time out of 21 is hardly valid proof of anything and would be counted as erroneous data in any experiment. what it comes down to is the story being completely false, there is a similar urban legend about a chemist who drops a beaker they are all different variations of the same lie.

Well I still think that the message stands clear, whether the idiot story is true or not, (which, by the way, has no effect on the message) if you stick up for God, no matter what anybody thinks, then He does amazing things @ScubaSctimpy
Sydlyo266637 1 year ago
@Sydlyo266637 for any of this to count as a "message", you must first prove the existence of a god, then prove the existence of your god as opposed to anybody else's and finally prove that your god does in fact intervene in the universe, so are you prepared to provide evidence of all three, otherwise it isn't a "message" but an outright lie. and what does your book of fables say about lies?

@HelloKezhia that explains why you are convinced by this argument, 1. the story has been confirmed as nothing more than an urban legend, there is no class of 300 students at usc that even discusses the existence of a god in passing. 2. chalk doesn't always break when you drop it anyway, in fact it rarely breaks simply by dropping it. and 3. the argument itself is a fallacy called argument from personal experience, in other words this entire video is an invalid pointless waste of time.

This world is goign to hell BECAUSE of christianity. You "christians" believe that god can save everybody. WHY THE HELL HASN'T HE DONE SO?!?!?!?!?!
If you god is supposedly ALL POWERFUL, then why hasnt he ended the suffering, all the mayhem, the chaos? Why hasn't he ended it all? Why hasn't this "rapture" happened yet? The "rapture" is supposedly the even that will take every true christian to heaven. Well, why hasn't it happened yet? The world is already in hell right now?
kafre67151 2 years ago

First of all, God didn't end all the chaos because He wanted to test our patience, our capacity and our actions. If you don't believe me, you can go buy a Bible and read the book of Job.
Secondly, the way you put it "The world is already in hell right now?" is what your opinion is. The moment you read the book of Job you may or may not realise it, but still, the book of Revelation talks about Jesus. You can read it or question a church pastor about it. Tell me once you're done

John 3:16 says: "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only begotton son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.". God gave his only son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross of calvary, to save all of us, Christians and non-Christians, from all of our sin (Which we believe is what is causing all the chaos).
Romans 6:23 says: "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Or through Christ Jesus our Lord."

Sin is what makes us sinners. God hates sin but He loves the sinners. Now you may be thinking "Sin? Huh! What bullshit!" . Read the book of Genesis then. Adam and Eve both ate the fruit from the tree of knowledge of all good and evil all because of a serpant. (Satan, or the devil.). Adam and Eve both didn't listen to God, that's how sin came about. Christians base their lives on the principle of Exodus 20. It talks about the 10 commandments that we Christians should / must obey.

Look, I'm not forcing you to turn to Christianity. I'm just giving examples from the Bible to prove that He exist. You think "If you believe in God, where is He then?!"
That's what Good Friday was for. Jesus Christ died, and rose on the third day (Sunday). He resurrected and is NOW seated at the right hand of The Father (God Almighty) in heaven. If you need more proof, you can go to a church and listen to what the pastor preaches about. You can even ask him questions.

The choice can be changed by a higher power, but in this case, it wasn't God, it was the professer, HE was the one carrying the chalk, HE was the one who proceeded to drop it, the incedent that happended when the boy stood up had nothing to do with the fate of the chalk. It was just a slip-up. How do I know? Think.

On the free will comment - the problem with that argument is, let's say your friend decides to go out to breakfast while they are supposed to be in class, and meets the person they end up marrying. Correct me if I'm wrong, but any children of that marriage would have had to be "planned" by God to begin with, meaning that the apparent choice made of not going to class was actually always planned. I hope I phrased that properly =/

How did the chalk pass through the cloth of prof.
If he wore shirt and pants, it should've stopped at the bottom of his shirt, not pass through the pants.(if his shirts r tucked in) or it should've just fell into ground(if his shirts r out) I'd say this video is not trustworthy. I am not saying God doesn't exist but this video is just stupid.

@lovedoctor159: There is direct evidence of evolution at work. Notice that a creature ill-suited for it's environment dies off. Its features become less prominent in generations to come because it does not survive to reproduce. The mutations which allow a species to survive however, will become more and more prominent as individuals with those traits reproduce. This is not blind faith. This is backed by logic and reason.

I respect that people have beliefs but this is honestly a propaganda video. I'm honestly frightened by the belief in something like this. So the chalk did not break so what about the genocide of millions going on in our world? Religion will lead to the extinction of mankind, look up historically the genocides going on because of God!

I think its funny, that people try and prove that God is or isn't real by testing him with small acts like not breaking the chalk. And I think its sad that people try to make God non-existent because if they admitted that there is a God, they would have to admit that they are sinners and it means they have to answer for and take responsibility for there actions. But thats why we call it "Faith" believing on Him despite what most people call concrete evidence.

Christianity: Relationship, not religion. God is everywhere, If you insist on believing that God doesn't exist, then you are making a CHOICE not to see him. I've seen things and felt things that leave me in no doubt!

yes i share that same testimony...God has blessed me with so many things and even though i have not yet seen him i have felt him in my mist when i felt soo alone. i should be dead right now and not even typing this but God never lost his faith in me even though my family and a handful of people did. may God continue to reign!! :-)
