  • This guy should write a book called "Pussy whipped into beliving in god"

  • @csosa1978 "case for christ" I'm thinking about.

  • I would like to see some of this evidence, btw the case for god was weak.

  • "Without god, it is not possible to have universal moral values, and yet we do have universal morals..."

    No, we don't. If we had universal morals, then all the laws and customs of different cultures would be wholly uniform. There are certain ideas about murder, sex, manners, and behavior upon which each culture bases its moral codes, but the stipulations about these vary between cultures because each use their own REASON to determine when an act is or is not acceptable, if ever.

  • So... Is this where S. E. Cupp got the idea of faking to be an Atheist or was it the other way around?

  • @Brokenarm101 if you acknowledge that the bible is written by humans and can be therefore not from god, why even bother to believe in yaweh anyway? I mean there is no logical conclusion or motivation that would make you justify your believes. as an atheist i feel much more happy without the fake hope religion gave me....it was nothing but a simulation in my head

  • @USHOULDTHINK I'm a catholic and I believe in God and Christ but I do NOT believe in every word of the bible. You made a very good example about slavery and I would just like to say that the bible was written by man not by Jesus and not by God so I personally don't believe in every word of the bible

  • I am an atheist. I don't believe that any supposed proof of god brought you to Christianity. You.spoke of community and good deeds and treating others well. Those are beliefs everyone should have regardless of religion or lack thereof. There is a great amount of.common sense morality in the bible but not all of the bible is moral. I choose what I believe to be moral according to its impact on society. There are beliefs in the bible which bring harm to people as well.

  • Can you give the rest of the world this knowledge of proof of god that you speak of. Allow it to be scrutinized. All truths must be able to hold up to scrutiny. It is only then can you declare them to be.true. The universal morality that you speak of is ever changing. It is not fixed in a certain position. The bible speaks of slavery as if it is condoned but we know now it is morally wrong. How do you reconcile that. Do you believe the bible is word of god or just suggestions?

  • @Matthewcoakley08 Those are 2 different kind of faiths. In german for example we have 2 words for it (Vertrauen / Glaube).
