    This life is all we have. Common sense should tell someone who has not been brain washed that there is no fairy tale ending with some god who loves them.

    Common sense
    ? You mean "natural" or "God-given' sense? Scripture says that "God has made Himself known in His creation." Many men thru the ages have looked at nature, the sky at night and today we see even farther into the creation, where 'common sense' would speak of an intelligent Creator rather than just pure random 'dumb luck!' You need to get off of your fallible, human tainted-reasoning and try some real 'common sense' for a change...

    Yep, as long as we have been brainwashed by atheist propoganda, we'll be fine.

    What makes you think your ideas need to be accepted as valid by anyone? Particularly when all you can do support or advocate any of them is tell everyone else how stupid they are?

    Where o where is that scientific test that proves yoru hypothesis?

    So, best to act like an immature, insulting, six year old in its abcence?

    Are you fulfilled now? Having a fairy tae ending now? Or just being mean to people based on deliberate intolerance of people based on their religion? A reigion that you CANNOT disprove in the slightest?

    But being mean makes you right?

    Six year olds.

    Agh, you missed the point.

    You see atheists are all natural born leaders. They woud never follow anything - except that they all make the almost exactly the same arguements while claimng that it is their natural leadership ability that lead the all to sound like a bleeting herd of sheep spewing the exact same propogandistic lines?

    In serving others we serve ourselves, a point that many atheists seem unable to acknowledge. Most sheep can't.

    When one has to quote the bible for answers, it just proves that chirstians are nothing but sheeple.
    They lose the ability to think critically on a subject.

    And there are thousands of prayers that go unanswered each and every day. YOU have been asked about this in the past and failed miserably in any response.

    I have also stated time and time again, if given enough chances, any event that could occur, will occur. You simply ignore this time and time again. If 15,000 pray for something, one prayer is bond to be 'answered'. You simply point to the one prayer that was answered and say, “See that is proof of god”, while ignoring the all the other unanswered prayers.

    Way to think critically!

    I back & bolster what I think and post with foundational scriptures....what I or YOU think as a personal 'opinion' is the same as having a 'rectum,' which everyone has as they say. Just vain "I thinks' come from individual biases, usually self-based & selfish in one's motives, and really dont mean 'spit.'

    Of all the members on PF, I find the threads you create the most offensive and creapy.

    Is starving kids in Africa the consequence of God not answering prayers or man's original sin? It has been said that the United States has enough food to feed the world 3 times over.

    What makes you think that the rich athlete had his prayers answered? What profit is it to gain the world but loses or forfeits himself?(Luke 9:25)

    Pain and suffering often causes people to become closer with God. Wealth often distracts us from spiritual things.

    Luke 1:1-4

    The authorship of Luke's Gospel can be verified by several of the early Church Fathers and the Muratorian Fragment(A.D. 170). Early manuscripts are titled "According to Luke."

    No I mean common sense. It is gained by living. Well you go on thinking that there is some being floating somewhere that created all of this. Some god revealed nothing at all. not one thing.

    You don't need to agree with me. It means little to me. I debate for fun. It gives me something to do when things slow down as I sit at my desk. If you want to believe in fairy tales that is up to you. But as with all gods yours to in time will fade into oblivion of lore and fable.

    Greek Philosophers arrived at the conclusion that God exists.

    Fundamental scriptures are unproven and mean zero in the real world.

    Only a 'fool' enjoys the 'folly' of knowing all and rejecting anything greater than he....or she.

    You mean the real world that is 'dying,' and will be destroyed even by secular stds?! The same real world that is living on 'borrowed time' in regards to super volcanoes (6 exist on earth), super-solar flare bombardment that is over due, statistical events of radiation of phenomenal levels coming from Quasars and Pulsars, an eminent polar axis reversal, etc. etc. etc. You have no idea how fragile our earthly existence is! Yeah, put YOUR trust in the 'real world!'

    Ofcourse is does. Its human nature to make up imaginary friends to help feel the pain with us.

    Again, for the umpteenth time, "The natural man does not understand the things of the Spirit, for they are Spiritually appraised."

    And you got what? Your usual rebellious rectal output! As if your vain opinion counts for anything?

    Then by all means actually attempt to debate.

    All I see is, "You guys suck because I say so."

    That is not debate, that is a distribe.

    At some point, atheists will simply breed the backlash such antics always breed. Christianity withstood Roman persecution and millenia of challenges - but I am sure a bunch of angry atheists with nothing besides anger and delibearte misrepresentation will make it go away to be replaced by ....

    Nothing.

    Good luck with that.
