Why the Christian/Judeo/Islamic God?

This aint a debate forum. Its a free speach forum.

 

Exactly. If you want a debate then go somewhere else man. We're here to hear all opinons, no matter how weird or trippy they may be.

 

Thats all poetic n chit, but there is no reason to call nature god. Nature is purely impersonal and couldn't care less about our well being or what we do.

I never disputed that the CJI god "the most worshipped", what I did say was that less than half of the worlds population worships this god. Just because something is "the most whatever", doesn't make it more than half. Your links did absolutely NOTHING to support otherwise and yes I clicked and read through each one. There wasn't one stat or mention of stats in any of the links.

 

I realize this is a free spEEch forum, thus debate is part of "free speech". I presented this as a debate and if You don't want to play, then don't.:cheers2:

I have no problems with hearing all opinions, but I would hope that people could back up their opinions. But again, opinions are like sphincters, everyone has one, some are crappier than others.

 

So you just wanted a debate? I thought you wanted an answer to your question.

 

If you have no problems with having opinions thrust at you why do you take them an' call all the opinion writers shit an' call their opinions stupid. We are all equal an' all opinions are worth hearing. No opinon is greater than the one right next to it. For all opinons have a voice an' there is always someone else out there with the same opinion as you.

When logic an' proportion have fallen slightly dead, an' the white knight is talkin' backwards, an' the red queens on her head, remember what the doormouse said.-- Jefferson Airplane. White Rabbit.

 

Okay then, why don't respond to what I actually posted instead of posting things that have nothing to do with what I posted?

 

He's a little slow on the uptake, on that one.

 

Actually you only said it was to be a debate but in reality, if this were a debate, the proposition would not have come from you and it would not have banned the tools that would have made the debate fair.

But you being a debater would already know that.

 

Are you saying I’m not much of a man of discernment because I read the Bible?

I think you missed the point. Itsdarts said this:

My answer was in answer to this and also went back and answered Itsdarts OP, why the Christian God or God of the Bible? (Which he did not pick up on)

Here he states that; not all know God. But yet the Bible is world wide and in many languages so everyone can read it, so the popularity of the Bible down through history would show that if the God of the Bible wants everyone to know him he’s doing a pretty good job of it.

Now that Itsdarts has let the Bible in by mentioning it himself, my referring to the popularity of the Bible shows the reason for why the CJIG. Please, show one other God who has made his word available to so many people for so long? No other god or gods even come close. Rather than choosing Thor or Zeus or Ra or some other god that seems to have given up on mankind, it would seem a good idea to go with the one who has not given up and is still spreading his message world wide and making it available to more and more people and even down to this day.

Actually, yes, I do love the divine gift of freedom.

Your illustration is a little off, God gave man the freedom to choose, and sin was only one of a billion of the choices he could have made.

You give someone a present of a rope is the first thing you think; I shouldn’t have done that he’ll probably hang himself? No, you’re probably thinking of how useful it will be to him and of the 1000 and 1 ways it will be helpful to him. If he hangs himself would that be your fault because you gave him the rope?

 

Hes somkinda bater.

 

Hmm. Well it looks like the not so debate debate isn't going very well for you itsdarts. As a matter of fact I believe the answer to your original question has been given at least 4 times in the entire thread man. Maybe we should just call it quits. The cjig god appeals to so many because of what he has to offer. End of story man

 

He still has no idea why he dont believe in God. He thinks he dose but he dont.

 

I don't believe in a god or God, I simply believe that gods as a whole are mankinds methods of explaining nature around them and they themselves within. Find your zen and one day there need be no more waking only the infinite renewal of your mind and soul as one.

I doubt that you have any idea why you believe in God.

 

Yes I do. Do you know why I believe in God?

 

Go ahead CanniEvergrow

 

I believe in God because God wants me to. Those who dont believe in Him, dont believe in Him because He dont want them to. If He wants you to believe in Him, He'l give you a new heart that will testify His truth to you and you'l realize Him. If He dont want you to know Him He'l put stumbling stones in your path to Him so you wont be able to believe in Him. Some Folks He wants, some folks He dont. He's only taking a small remnant of the population into His bossom.

 

How exciting

I bet you are pleased Cann
