If theres no God then I wanna know where we came from.
Look at it like this Sikotic... IF THERE IS A GOD... where did he come from-Big BpG
My family was shown how selfish tha church was, there was this church i used to go to, when my dad had his accident a neighbor asked them to say something for him durin tha service, they said they could not, i dont remember tha exact reason but it was a bullshit reason, secondly my dad got a letter from tha church sayin he was not contributing enough money, i swear, instead of puttin tha money in an envelope wit his name on it he just gave $20 outta of his pocket b/c he felt tha contribution did not need to have a name on it, this i comin from a church where his kids attended religious instructions (sunday school or catcism, whatever you wanna call it) i disagree wit a lot of things about tha catholic religion especially how we have to tell a priest our sins, why should we have to tell some1 else some of our most personal stuff, why cant we just tell god this, why does a priest have to here it. Tha church has done nutin for my family even thoug we contributed a lot of money, god has done nutin for me, even though i used to go to church every sunday an prayed every night. Theres a lot of shit that question my exsitance an my beliefe in god, why should somebody that has done nutin wrong have to suffer, i hate my life, my dad, a good guy, owned his own business supportin 3 kids never did anything that bad, why did he have to become paralyzed, lose his business, have his marrage fall apart an at 1 time pray that he would die. Someone explain to me why my life sucks, i always worked hard but yet there was always someone better than me, i have few friends, no girl, no car, everything i have i had to work my ass off for, someone explain to me what I did wrong, I dont understand it, if god is such a lovin good, than how come there is no happiness in my life, what tha fuck did i do wrong, am i destined to live in poverty, my dad grew up poor, his dad grew up poor an since tha age of 11 ive been poor, It's like im a lab rat in god's game b/c he likes to see me suffer.
He's always been according to the Bible.
Alright, thanks everybody for helping tom a little bit, I think you all have good points. And first, let me say that the purpose here is to make tom feel better. I think through religion, that's one way. Music is definately another way, friends are another way, but if you truly understand the concept of god, then you know that i'm not talking about a big man in the sky.I'm talking about a bigger power, something that is in control, because tom, you, and I, are not. BPG, you say you don't believe in god, i'm gonna go out on a limb and say that if you ever meet a girl who falls in love with you, you will. Because I've been in love, and to experience that, and see that, there is no doubt that you didn't have a damn thing to do with it, someone else did it, and whoever it was, that's god. How can you say there's no god, and look around at all the beauty in the world? The men i know are evil sonsofbitches, and I don't think there's many of us on this board that could even think up the idea of a flower or a bird or anything. We sure as hell didn't have anything to do with any of the beauty around us, and whoever did, that's who I call god. And that's why I got something to thank him for, and that's why I look to him whenever I feel down, I see what he's done, and I see i'm part of it.You say where did god from? the answer is we have no friekin' clue. It's above us, that whole concept of infinite regression is beyond us, and the reason it's beyond us is because we had nothing to do with it, something else did, and whatever that was, that's god. Anyways, I don't want to preach, and bPG you're totally wrong about religious extremists. That's like saying racial extremists kill people, that's true but that doesn't mean you can't have a race, LOL. But ain't nobody gonna hate you, You're cool with me if you don't have a religion and don't believe in god, but i'm telling you, the more you think about it, the more you're gonna have to resign yourself to the fact that god exists... I know, i've been there, and I consider myself pretty intelligent... I've thought god over for years, and the people with blind faith are blessed, because they've got it right from the beginning. Anyways, tom, do what you want, but this post oughta show you your life is worth something. Until the day I die, i'll remember that stupid picture of al bundy you had on your posts, I used to laugh everytime I saw that. THINK ABOUT THAT. When I'm 80, i'll remember that, and maybe tell my granddaughter about it. You know what that means? That means 1 stupid little thing you did became a part of me for the rest of my life. Don't rob people of all the great things you can do to become part of THEIR life.
The catholic church is seriously one of the most corrupt things in our world.... yet so many believe in it that any hatred on it is shun away.... when you talk about you're dad and the church wanting money is very common, its called tithe. Supposedly if you give money to the church they will clear all you're sins away... wtf is that.... the church can grant you indulgences... which are like you're ticket to heaven... if commit a sin, to get an induglence you will probably have to pay the church... religion to me is corrupt and it has done nothing good to our world... every single war has been because of religion ... it's just crazy.....Islam - USA vs. AfghanJudism - WWIIProtistants - War in Ireland-Big BpG
in my debate class last year we had this debate... i was voted the winner...
I knew you were going to say that.... because that's what the bible says... god has always been.... then it took 7 days to create the earth ( i think thats right) .... I believe in the Evolution of Space and the conservation law of energy... it's the " scientific " way of our creation and well to me... thats my belief.. there is no " god " that created this world, but there is " energy " and according to the law.... ENERGY HAS ALWAYS BEENsound familiar?? GOD HAS ALWAYS BEENbut the bible can't prove everything.... scientists can prove the " big bang theory" they can prove " the big crunch theory" the bible can't ... and I hate hearing shit about Noah... and his great ark..... 40 dayz and 40 nights... how fucking big was that boat.... to fit every species of animal... damn what a boat.... Noah must have had a lot of shit... think about it........... animals have to eat... well.... you only have 2 of each species of plant... so i plant can feed one animal... this may be a stupid way to look at it, but damn 40 days is a long time with no food.... basically scientists say we evolve... we used to be monkeys... they PROVE IT.... Polar Bears are becoming closer relatives to whales and scienists are PROVING IT..... to me, the bible is a story... created a long time ago... like Harry Potter it was for a good reading and it was a look at how we could have been created and well back then, people had nothing to believe in and this book was their way of seeing it... so people believed it....TELL ME THISwhat did people believe in before the bible was written???what did people believe in before Jesus was born?-Big BpG
I'm ending it now.... i dont believe in god and won't.... i dont hate god... many people get "saved" by god... good for them... you gotta believe in something, i won't believe in god... not that he/she's bad.... but to me the people representing them are... the so called leaders, to me they are. thats all... its like those damn informercials you see on BET with those sweating church dudes ... they touch people foreheads and say stuff like "when i count two all your troubles will go away " and the people act as if they are being tranced and then they fall to the floor... those same people ask for 3 shipments of $20 dollars so you can get the "miracle spring water" that will clear all your sins.....bullshit......this is me... truama, sikotic, doggystyling, you might have that spring water.... i dont.... if i did, i'd drink it .... my knowledge on reltigion is very little and some of my friends have "found god" all of sudden... invite me to church... no thanks... GOD is something everyone can believe in, something that gives you hope, god is not jesus lets say, god is someones way to look at good.... that's what god is.... i found my god and it's not jesus christs.... god is the good in everything... i dont preach it I just live by it, you do good, you'll recieve good, so far its worked....-Big BpG
