God- Yes or No

Post by Kiru »

Seriously. First things first. DO NOT FLAME IN THIS TOPIC. This thread can be subject to extreme flaming because of personal belifes.

Anyways, Topic is blunt enough. Do you beleive in God or some other being / Religious figure? (Was surprised this topic didn't exist.

There is an reason why a kind of topic is not created.
It causes alot of arguments between different faiths
to be spoken. So, you can't really stop any disscussion
on a disbelief of someone's god or goddess. There are many
forms of an ultimate spirituality.

And another thing, some people would just let it go
about someone either not believing in one's god
or goddess. Many people have different objectives
or reasons and there are many other people who disagree.
Mostly depends on what kind of God or Goddess you are talking
about.

Yes

On a side note, good job making this thread as flame-retardant as possible. *Never would have considered using a poll*

I know there is! ha ha ha ha ha...... Not a religious one, I think religions just srew everything up, even though they mean well. But that's just how I feel. I think it's very important for us all to find our own answers. :D

I reckon that there is something out there, but what that something is, I don't know.

My belief is that 'god' is basically the creative force of the universe, however, I don't believe it has any influence in our own lives or the lives of those around us. In that sense, I don't believe that god has any form of self-conscious will.

I know Maromi generally doesn't want these sort of topics open so I'll let him decide whether or not to keep it.

I do believe in God, but I don't display my religion. The last thing I want is someone from a different religion to get mad at me for being Catholic or something.

yes i totaly agree i guess that "God" is just the energy that created this universe but is there every any way to truly know? i know i could go off and explain this theory but i would have to start usng examples from quanitum physiscs so i am just going to let people believe what they want to but if any one wants to talk more about it you know how to get ahold of me

i hear from die hard religious nuts that god and science cannot coexist...at least the ones i've talked to. i believe that god is the why, and science is the how... but i can't say which god...i don't know. but i do know that almost every religion says the same thing. be good, do good, or pay the consequences. its an important lesson.

Alright guys, lets be careful of what we say now. Lets avoid making claims, generalizations, or assumptions based either on our own knowledge or what we've heard.. It's just a yes or no question. The simpler we keep this thread, the less likely it's going to combust or spark debate.

O.o If any arguments looked like they were going to spark off then I'd lock the thread.

Suffice to say each individual is giving their view, as long as no one says someone else's idea of 'god' is bull, then the thread can continue going.

whoa, sorry if my post sounded anti-christian or anything of that sort. its quite the opposite. i try to learn about all religions, but i was just saying that i noticed that trend was common among people i've met. i try to keep an open mind about things like that, so sorry if i offended.

God is cool, I just don't like his fan clubs. Keeping religion an individual part of your life might not fit into any of the Abrahamic religions, but that's what I do.

k well i do believe in God, and i'm a devout believer at that.

But i dislike how religion is portrayed today, as those certain groups of Christians that force religion onto other countries just give us all a bad rap.
