Why does God play this game?

[Spanish Thought]

The concept of God is the most evil form of brainwash I have seen on this earth...

Realize that "God" can't give you anything you can't give yourself. Anything you ever felt and thought was an outer power was actually an inner power. Then you'll realize you were God this whole time.

I have grown up a believer, and still pretty much am, but sometimes its really hard to make sense of things, such as...

Why is it that we should believe in something that never shows its there? The believers will say that god communicates with you in his own way, but anyone could say that, that is just not factual. My biggest question is why should I believe? Some people say they just "feel it", feel what?

Its like God is telling you I want you to believe in me completely but I will never show you that I am there. , how can anyone say this makes sense?

The mind is an incredible thing and you could start believing in a tree if you read enough myths about it.

Those who believe please tell me WHY it is you believe.

It's hard to make sense of those things because nothing so far has come along to make sense of them, including the idea of God and the afterlife, which will not be provable by anything you can observe in this plane of existence, unless humans grow a 3rd eye or something.

What those people "feel" is the comfort and security of intellectual self-delusion. The ease of not having to think about things, and just accept certain alleged truths at face value, even though there is absolutely no reason to accept those truths. It's the same as a kid believing in Santa.

I think these questions asked by the OP should be addressed by those who have questioned it but stayed firm in finding the truth out.



I always questioned things as a kid but when I hit 19...I really was full swing at questioning everything I grew up on. It wasn't until I hit 23 or 24 when the answers started to come to me and I took heed in alot of it. Over the next 7 to 8 years the expansion of knowledge given grew more and more. Sometimes it takes a while to find what you are truly looking for but it shows up in different aspects but take advantage of it when the Essence( God) shows you it.

Its obvious. Everything that lives has a creator and everything that exists came from something. We fall under that umbrella being a complex system of atoms molecules and cells brought together to create what we are. Its so easy to believe and be thankful.

It becomes difficult to believe when our minds begin to gravitate toward the demonic and we want to alleviate ourselves of the responsibility of good as dictated by morality. It is then when friends become skeptical of God. Its then when they are most vulnerable to demonic filth and destroying themselves with stupidity.

Lets not turn away from God because setting a good example for our family friends and strangers has a better impact on the world then showing people around us how demoralizing and filthy we can become when we showcase how demons make us act.

This guy used to ride hard for Christianity on the old site. I love it when a religious person starts to open their eyes and question that bullshyt.

For all the idiots saying im trolling

 

[MidniteJay]

:thinking: There is a way to prove that God exists or not.

Ya'll not gonna like it though.

Didn't have time to read the whole thread.

There is spirit and there is material. The material is corrupt and decays. Spirit is flawless and eternal. G-d is the essence of spirit. It has to be totally intangible because otherwise it would be material.

You say G-d doesn't reveal itself but what if your every heartbeat depends on G-d willing it. What if every gulp of air is G-d feeding you directly? I say if uou are being taken care of then G-d is right there.. everywhere. If you go too far away from the light then you'll see what it's like when G-d is not sustaining you... for a short time because that's when you perish.

Why do good people, babies, and old people die? Good question, but that supposes that we deserve life. If you realize you don't deserve anything, then you'll see even one day on this planet as a gift

How do you know any of this?

I'm probably "as far from the light" as someone could be, and yet my heart still beats, I still inhale air. Maybe, just maybe, you're imagining the necessity of a god.

Babies die because there is no justice in the world. There is no supremely good being watching over us... making sure we get everything we need. We are alone, and if we want to make the best of our lives, we have to help each other.

I'm sure he did "ride hard" for Christianity, even the devil reads the bible

You wanna see what the darkness really holds? Leap off a bridge or walk into traffic. People like crack heads dwell in the dark but they do it slo mo. Living reckless is straying from the light but it's not full fledged abandoning G-d. You know better than to endanger yourself (some don't) and thus you still walk with G-d.

How do I know? Cause I been paying real close attention. Life should not even exist according to the math. Yet we are here. In defiance of every natural "law".

as others have said, "god" isn't playing anything and didn't tell anybody to do anything because there is no invisible mystery god.

that would be the people who know no such thing exists and continue to teach over and over that it does exist, causing people to believe in the unseen.

there is nothing higher than humans, and black people are the original people. Mind = Man for it controls the body and is able to make things manifest. The black man is god, always has been, always will be. Nothing is a mystery, and therefore there's no reason to believe. The operating system of the universe is mathematics.

Entropy. Says that systems continually break down. For instance the Solar System will be dust one day. Life organizing itself from mud is the opposite of entropy.

 

[mahnameizray]

TOO MANY THINGS HAPPEN IN LIFE THAT SHOW YOU THERE IS A HIGHER POWER WATCHING OVER EVERYTHING. WE CAN EITHER IGNORE IT AND BE ARROGANT OR GO WITH IT AND SEE WHERE IT TAKES US. IMAGINE A WORLD WHERE EVERYBODY WAS GOING WITH IT? SOUNDS LIKE HEAVEN. BUT WE GOT ALL THESE DEMONS HERE...
