Take my word or not. I can't use something alive to even describe it. Maybe one day you'll understand.
It just so happens to be undescribable eh? You know what else is undescribable. Something that doesn't exist.
I used Wikipedia to explain to you the source of the idea of Santa Claus. Historical evidence shows that he was created by humans, and they admit this. This is not the case for God. Trying to relate the two is absurd. Please, you can try and look smart by testifying everything someone says, but answering questions is what is taken to heart.
Santa was just an example, the idea of God was created by humans as well. Waaay back when our minds started to wonder about the world.
Haven't I been saying this? 100 people dead in Iraq makes the news, but IT SHOULDN'T. A PERSON DIES ROUGHLY EVERY 7 SECONDS. People all die.
Then why would you pray for someone to live knowing he wont do anything about it, why would you pray at all. That has nothing todo with God though, people just die, like any other creature.
So quick to testify, how about you explain why ghosts aren't real, then. Not everybody is "insane". I've been to a manor that had 2-3 previous owners die in it. And there's a knitting basket in the middle of the dining room, if you move the basket, the next day it will always be back where it was the previous day, regardless if anybody is in the house or not. Explain how things move randomly, but excessively to 100% accuracy. Happens every time. Now, of course you can say, "Oh, you're making that up.", but what inclination do I have to lie to you? And why would I lie and say it's a ghost that likes to knit. Believing me or not is YOUR issue, not mine. I'm just justifying my opinions, because I know I'm right.
There is always an explanation for everything in the world, we just don't always know the answer. God and ghosts are just "filler" if you may, to make us satisfied with what we know. So in a way God is keeping us ignorant, if we are satisfied with believing he made everything we would never explore what actually happened. And about the basket thing. Many variables could have been in play. Don't know the place so I am not going to comment on it.
The bible doesn't have an author, it has many. Fairytales have one author, and maybe an illustrator
Don't compare them, they aren't the same. Thank you.
That has nothing todo with anything. The Bible is made by people...So what makes it so different than a Fictional book?
Its a bunch of stories made up by people. Its a book. Nothing more.
Going off the same logic your agnostic friends are going, "We never saw the big bang. Therefore, it is not real, and neither is air."
Perhaps there was a big bang. But what created the matter that started it? As for god creating the earth, ever heard of a metaphor? Bibles full of them, that's why most naive people don't read the bible, they can't get a grasp of anything it says.
Air is real because we can feel it, but we can't see it because the molecules and the matter air is made up of does not allow us to see it. Colors are showing what they reflect. Green reflects green and thats why we see that color. Air doesn't have a color so it's not reflecting anything therefore you can't see it. Now you're probably going to say God is colorless then, well man has certain ways of detecting invisible things such as infrared, heat vision, xray, radar, sonar, etc. Many different things that would have found any supernatural force on our Earth. About the Big Bang, no we did not see it, I didn't say it existed, I said we have discovered the theory, just like the theory of God. It all can't be proven right now, maybe one day when we have more proof.
That's not justifying your statement, that's called being arrogant.
Theres nothing else to add to it, its a true statement, we make up an imaginary friend to comfort our minds.
I'm talking about the colorless (aka Transparent), odorless, and tasteless abundant compound called Air. I never said anything about Oxygen
Air is primarily made up of nitrogen (78.09%) and oxygen (20.95%). The remaining 1% is made up of argon (0.93%), carbon dioxide (0.03%) and other trace gases (0.003%). Water vapor (water in its gaseous state) is also present in air in varying amounts. Also Air is not a compound its a mixture...
Mixture: is a combination of two or more elements
Compound: definite proportions of elements that cannot be separated by physical means
EDIT: @up, its not heated. Im having fun ^.^ I don't have anything against anyone that believes in God, I just like to express my PoV.
