If you don't mind me asking, what makes you think your religion is the truth? What makes you think that heaven and hell really exist? It's obvious that if I were to tell you I still followed the egyptian's religion, you would think I'm foolish, because we all know that their religion wasn't real. It was false. It's only a matter of time until the current religions are in history books and the next generation beliefs settle in. thumbsup.gif

Sorry but I'm not a fan of studying fictional stories. 95% of the bible is fiction.

LOL 95%?? ok then what 5% is not fiction?

I would have said completely fictional but I didn't want to be disproved with 'Not ah, this has been proven!', because I haven't really been keeping up-to-date with breakthroughs in the bible. tongue.gif

If you are talking about the Christian God, then no, because Christianity is a lie.

First of all, we were talking about the return of Jesus, WTF happened?

Second of all, if God did everything for us, we would never get anything done for ourselves. Technology is greatly advancing. We can now start developing artificial arms and legs. Why would God do it for us. While were at it, why don't we just ask God to donate some money to charity, why don't we ask him to fix our cars flat tire, why.....Then again, I'm not in any position to answer that. God is so complicated, we can never fully understand him.

I believe in multiverse, and I believe matter has always existed, by that, I mean that the existence of the atom has no begining in time. now, would science like to explain it better?

Well, that first off proves nothing for your religion, and secondly that is a fundamental law of science- matter can neither be created nor destroyed...

Why, do you assume I'm a christian? Well i'm not, I'm a bahai. Our prophet stated that the matter has always existed, and to this day he is right. I don't know why you feel negatively about religion. Here's what my religion has to say about science:

Bahá'u'lláh has declared that religion must be in accord with science and reason. If it does not correspond with scientific principles and the processes of reason, it is superstition. For God has endowed us with faculties by which we may comprehend the realities of things, contemplate reality itself. If religion is opposed to reason and science, faith is impossible; and when faith and confidence in the divine religion are not manifest in the heart, there can be no spiritual attainment.

Back on topic. I think God helped my dad once. He really wanted to get his drivers license, and my mom prayed for God to help him, and he passed. Though it's pretty hard to say if God helped him or not hmm.gif

OK you think god helped him, then you put it in a spin and think.....was it God that helped??? hmmmmmmmmm


Listen up....over here...not too many pass the driving tests...not too many get their licience 1st or 2nd time round...it causes fustration and anger...and not to mention, a lot of money.....some have to re-sit their tests over and over again...so...ask yourself again...you dad passed it....was it your moms good faith that helped??? could it have been a 50/50?? meaning your moms good faith in her prayers (take a leaf out your moms book) and your dads skill??


I say it was both..an act of God and your dads skill


God will only help those who are willing...always remember that thumbsup.gif
exeller
I forgot to tell you, it was my dads third time taking that test. It was for unrestricted Class 3. Plus, he had been a truck driver for 20 previous years, sooooo...he knew alot of the answers. He couldn't pass it becuase it was in english. His english isn't that great. but he passed. Maybe it wasn't Gods work. I mean, my dad hasn't been close to God for sooooo long.
Beckys_Mom
Ok..well I cant prove it was the work of God...but I can believe it was.....does that make any sense to you?? huh.gif

I never understood why some people always believe that god helps in a situation. Lets take a more serious issue. For example; Surgeons. A surgeon and his/her team save a man's life after he was in a deadly car accident. The work of God, or the work of human's advancement in the medical field? Lets say this accident was in the year 1916. The chances of him surviving drop down to almost nothing.
You say the work of God, I say the work of man-kind. thumbsup.gif

You can never be sure right? Anyway, My dads english is worse than paris hilton having sex, so that's why I think that God might of helped him out a lil bit.

i don't think god helped. I think god would be more occupied with other things than helping your dad pass his driving test. Another thing would be why would god help your dad drive a vehicle that produces pollution that damages the earths atmosphere and peoples health.
