Interesting...you assume that some kind of "excuse" is even necessary. I happen to follow a different religion. I don't subscribe to the teachings ascribed to Jesus of Nazareth...no excuse needed.
Yes, exactly........to deny God when you experience it nearly everyday is like YOU said:......... "nothing short of ridiculous".
He's the very air you breathe! The very air! And like the air and the wind, that you CAN'T SEE, YOU KNOW HE EXIST! That's what the common denominator is!
See, it all boils down to believing does'nt it?
I experience God everyday, pray to him, work to be a better person. My heart is filled with the wonder..... Yet you would still say I am condemned
Hmm, i thought you were here cause mommy and daddy decided they want to have children.
My dog is here for the same reason as you are. So are bugs, mosquitoes, ticks, ants, and fruit flies.....
Take a good look around you. Take a good look inside yourself. The proof is all around you, the proof is you. But, how would you even know it's the proof that you need, if you reject it so adamantly? Do you not have purpose of being here?
If you are already sold out on, "No! God does'nt exist", then how are you to believe anything anyone say to you? Then anything I say to you is pointless.
Are you really willing to accept the answer? How neutral are you? To truth...
The problem Betsy is not whether folks believe in God. They could but you will see them as in need because they don't believe as you do.
Thats the problem with Christianity and Islam. Its an our way or the highway of doom.....
I have heard of Jesus, we just choose not to worship him as you do.
My faith and trust are in GOD. I don't worship idols, saints, etc... I worship God.
I hate it when people try and tell me that because I am Jewish that I am going to burn in hell. (happens alllll the time).
You do know that your supposed savior was a Jew right? Being Jewish doesn't make me any better than anyone else, and neither are you.
People are people, regardless of what they believe in. People are all the same whether they are Muslim, Jewish, Christian, Pagan, etc... You can't identify a person's religion by looking at them. So who are we to judge each other?
Have you tried "stepping out your box" of unbelief? [/quote]
Believing in God but in another tradition is not "unbelief"
