now i know that a few of you would give me some sarcastic answers as to why to believe in it, or maybe i should say, have faith in the god who inspired it.. but i want to know why a person should believe in it?
i know that i want to, i want to believe in a god who cares for us, i want to believe that he will put an end to the misery that surrounds us, i want to believe in a hope for the future.. i am not trying to be idealistic either.
but is there solid evidence to believe in it.

"DO I DETECT ELITISM"
Nice one, the way you broke down larsguys post
and inserted your elementry third grade comments
reak every bit as a egotistical, and have to resort
nonoriginal, old, stereotype namecalling that comes
from a person that is ever bit an "ELITIST"
"IF YOU CANT CHANGE YOUR MIND ARE YOU SURE YOU HAVE ONE?"
evolution is not the answer to most of the important questions about life and how it got here.. if current evolutionary ideas are true they only tell a very small part of the story.. simply how random changes to animate and inanimate things can be mechanicly selected by sutible enviroments and prosper in them.. there is still lots about us to explain.. what is the source of the matter in our universe, what caused the "big bang"?.
what is consciousness and how does it work?.
what causes the fundemental forces and how do they work?.
To much in a hurry, sorry for the typos.

"yeah, its really hared to believe in something that has
never,ever been captured on any form of camera or other
recording device. Hell, there arent even any formulas
predicting the exictence of god either."
OK?
How was history recorded before TV came?AAAAAAAMMMM,
I think things were write down and documented. Do you read
the encyclepedia? Do you question it?
Even if god was 'captured' on tape or what ever, you would
probably still not beleive, why, becuase humans are good at
deflecting seemingly obvious thruth, with questions.Some
are conspericy therists,dont what to beleive in things
that are in front of them. Landing on the moon for exsample,
'cuaght on tape' yet some dont believe it happened, whatever.

"So what is the difference betwwen being an atheist and being
wrong, and having faith and being wrong?Your still wrong
at the end of the day,lol."
Well, I guess I will try and spell it out for you.
If you are an athiest and there is a god, you probably
will not have his favor(read about the anti-christ and his
future)Your future is in his hands.(I surely would not to be
dealt with by someone I have denyed existed)
On the other had,IF You have faith in god and he doesnt exist,
well, your fate would be the same, no harm either way, same consequence.
If you want to put in scintific terms-THIS ISNT ROCK SCIENCE!

When ever I read lierature about evelution or atheists( not
nessarally the same) I just think to my self is this guy an idiot,
or am I? Evedience or proof is subjective,obviously,or there wouldnt
be this debate. Evolutionists and athiests want something to kick
them in the face and say "I AM GOD", well if thats what proof is to
you, fine,but there are more questions than answers with evelution
than there ever will be with creationists, thats what faith is all
about.If evelution were true than nothing would advance, evelution
by its nature would follow the path of least resistance, why
wouldnt it? Wht are not animals bigger and stronger than humans
advancing, no they follow the food chain becuase they go by instinct
not the ability to reason, think , formulate athought and act
on it. The human body, why when we get hurt( sick , cut , broken
bone ,etc...) does it HEAL it self? What makes the body go aginst
doing 'the easy thing' or going AGAINST the path of least resistance?
Bottom line I guess I would ratter have faith in God and be wrong,
than be an atheist and be wrong! Is it that hard to have faith?
But maybe I AM the idiot.
despite all the problems i have had with many people in the jehovah's witness's religion, i would not know the basic truths that i have learned if it were not for jehovah's witness's.. the hope that learned, i still have; though i no longer attend the meetings i miss the meetings, personal and family problems that really no one other than god him self can fully understand at that time so many years ago.. i know now that i have atemped in the past to haave the brothers and sisters to understand what i my self could not grasp about my problems that perplexed me beyond what i could deal with.. sense that time i have also learned that it really is jehovah that i should render my service to and no one else, it him i must fuloly rely on for aid compleatly not humans.. thanks, pepper
My uncle and I got into this discusion this weekend,
The inportance of using Gods name or not.
My reply to him:
A) Gods name not in the greek scriptures
B) If Gods name is a vitual factor in in seperating
the "true" religion from the false ones, why didnt
Jesus use it in the model prayer? Why didnt he use it
period!
My uncles reply:
A) Jesus was talking to people that new gods name,
today his name wasnt widely known till the wbts, it was
there job to reastablish his name for all the earth.
B) IF GODS NAME ISNT IMPORTANT, WHY DOEST ANYONE
QUESTION THE NAME OF JESUS. wHY NOT JUST CALL HIM LORD
OR SON OF GOD? IF HIS NAME IS IMPORTANT TO USE DONT U
THINK GODS IS AS WELL?

*** w90 2/1 25 exposing "the man of lawlessness" ***.
.. 19 the worldliness of some clergy has even been exposed in the media in recent times, as for example the licentious and luxurious life-styles of some tv clergymen.
