@DarkBunnyLord As far as I know (and I should know), none of the core definition of the religions from the Indian subcontinent, says disbelief to be unforgiveable. Of course, but then you have the famous rethorical question: "If a Tree falls in the woods and no one is around; Does it make a noise?"

[DarkBunnyLord]

@Ko252 My comment was mocking Ronnie for saying that "if a person earnestly asked if their God was real that he would reveal himself to them".

Now I'm not sure of your religion and while I can say I can respect a belief more that claims to have a god that judges based on actions instead of blind faith (a rarity as most religions say disbelief is unforgivable) it doesn't make me believe in said God any more again do to the sheer lack of evidence of such a being existing.

@DarkBunnyLord My religion primarily says; your action will dictate the consequences, in this and your next life. Now, it is up to you, to interpret it as you want; literally, thinking you have a soul or symbolically, thinking of the reuse of the basic components you are made of.

[DarkBunnyLord]

@Ronniecob40 If it's possible to dismiss it as something else, then it's not absolute evidence in the first place. Again this is the false dichotomy you're promoting of that you have to believe in order to get the evidence to believe. If you already believe then you're willing to make excuses and see things that aren't there to justify belief, psych 101 my friend.

[DarkBunnyLord]

@Ronniecob40 Try any actual evidence. Hearing the words trust me is not evidence of anything other than hearing the words trust me. You where kicking a drug habit for god sakes, not exactly the most reliable testimony from someone going through withdrawals. Millions of people around the world want and have asked for proof and haven't gotten it, so no, he won't give it to us.

I don't believe you because EVERY religion claims the same thing you're repeating here.

[DarkBunnyLord]

@Ronniecob40 I did, so have many others, and he didn't. This is a lie you're promoting and when someone doesn't get this provision, you simply use the excuse that it will happen eventually with no evidence that it will and in denial to evidence to the contrary. No, they've seen a change in you, this is no more proof of miracles of God in you than it is proof of miracle of magic Gnomes in you.

Your mother likely hallucinated, or is just lying. People claim they see things they don't all the time,

@Ronniecob40 (cont) began giving itself tax exempt status, preaching Voltron on the streets and telling everyone else that didn't believe that they'd be cast into the sun for eternity after death, pushed the denial of equal rights, protested life saving science, tried to hold back actual facts in school and pushed the teaching of their unproven idea that Voltron created the universe thus waisting students time then would you remain silent?

Christianity (most religions) is the same.

[DarkBunnyLord]

@Ronniecob40 What? You have to ignore history and the bible. Even the bible mentions a pantheon of Gods then later denies that it said that by saying Yahweh is the only God (though it wouldn't be the first time the bible contradicted itself). They didn't come after, just pick up a history book some time, hell even the bible says people believed in other Gods before the Christian God was known of.

It's simple, if a group that believed in Voltron, the 1980's cartoon robot, came out and (cont)

[Ronniecob40]

@DarkBunnyLord I will pray that He will do something in your life, please keep your eyes and heart open to it, because if you don't, you will just dismiss it to something else. God Bless You.

@DarkBunnyLord cont; Jesus appeared to my mother on Christmas morning, He has also appeared to me on several occasions. That and with my rapid transformation after he spoke Trust Me to me, what more evidence do I need? i realize thats not proof for you, but like I said He will give you proof, if yu truly want it. U owe it to yourself to find out, because its a fact, We All Die, and you have no proof that we cease to exist, but I have proof that Jesus does, I suggest, you ask for proof as well.
