[JAndrewC1975]

Believing in Christ and believing He is the Son of God are two very different things. There is ample evidence that Christ existed, that He healed thousands upon thousands of people, raised others from the dead, and was crucified. There is also ample witness testimony of His resurrection. The implications of this evidence are huge: He is who He claimed to be. One may choose not to believe in gravity because it cannot be seen, but try not believing at 30,000 feet without a parachute.

"ample evidence ...He healed thousands upon thousands of people, raised others from the dead ... There is also ample witness testimony of His resurrection." You're kidding, right?

Whatever you think is out there, having no interest or curiosity for what may be beyond anything really.....That's just a broken being. Sorry atheists, and I'm barely a theist with no God or faith or ideology to follow. Dunno about you guys, but nothingness is inconceivable, and being a presumably finite being in an infinite medium....That's just weird. I'm pretty afraid of death, why not wish there is something more after it.

[wimsweden]

"why not wish there is something more after it." You can wish all you want. Doesn't make it true, though.

[Heidi K.]

Poor thing, atheists are bitter and sarcastic. All of them.

[wimsweden]

Spoken like a true bigot.

[wimsweden]

"She lived with a married man, ya know" The horror!

"Here she looks like Joe the AC repairman instead of a glamorous movie star." So...?

"Scotty Bowers' recent book "Full Service" claims he set Hepburn up with hundreds of (female) prostitutes over the years." "Claims is the operative word there.

You don't need any god to know right from wrong. Amen

I have watched this video so many times, it is just pure truth. I think most people know in their heart that this is the truth but just don't want to accept it. You live and you die, but that's a beautiful thing, not something to be feared. I agree with everything she said. She had some backbone to express an opinion like that 40 years ago on national television. A true gem.

[Heidi K.]

So true, JAndrewC1975, there's lots of evidence for JESUS CHRIST from non Christian sources.

Atheists get meaner and grumpier as they age - and I know a lot of them.

God bless

[msginca]

Yep ... she spends time talking about *** how important it is to help others in this life *** ... a sure sign she's bitter and sarcastic.

Your observational skills are amazing.

[LuckyJimmie]

Sounds like Heidi K is a little bitter. Must be the bad taste of her religion.

[ugandaplayer]

If it's true or not we can't know for sure. "It" has infinite possibilities. This kind of view of there is nothing else makes me think some people went to far, and by the way, should I remind you that this view is also here because of religion ? w/e...

[aguadecocoismo]

We don't all believe and practice the same~ why do you have to make an issue? You believe she believes that not enough, you have to force it own someones throat.
