Watched TV evangelists for the first time today

friends

i was flipping through the channels while doing cardio and i decided to hear what a couple of these people had to say.

while i've determined that i'm agnostic, this one guy was pretty good...he was practical and funny.

he made the bible seem more like a good self-help book than a "book laws to be obeyed or else you'll die".

I've always thought that Jesse Duplantis was rather comical. Just looking at him makes me want to laugh. He should have been a comedian instead of a televangelist. I've never actually listened to him very long though.

If you dont believe in God...according to the bible you are a fool!

by Blackboo in

the fool has said in his heart there is no "god" how can this?

why do non-believers jump to such a conclusion?

i have notice many former witnesses have lost faith in god because of a a "religion" who didnt measure up to what it claims.

Blackboo,

Take a look at how your questions evolve each time we give you an answer. Now continue this process for several million years. Eventually you will evolve to become an Atheist. That is if you use the brain that evolution has produced for you.

Blackboo,

Is it necessary to understand in excruciating detail how God created Man and his ability to think before you will accept the biblical account of creation?

Blackboo,

Now that you've moved on to questions about evolution, does this mean that we've answered your who created the person that created god question to your satisfaction?

Deciding on the Basis of Research

by hmike in

for those of you who aren't familiar with lee strobel, he is the author of christian popular apologetic books.

his releases include the case for faith, the case for christ, and, most recently, the case for the real jesus.

a journalist with a legal background, his case books contain interviews with scholars and experts who give scholarly defenses of the christian positions to which the books are devoted.

hmike,

Interesting post.

The one thing I noticed that I felt was rather unusual was that Mr. Strobel claims to have been an Atheist first and then became a Christian after his research. This sequence of events is the exact opposite of my experience and nearly every other Atheist I have ever spoken with.

I was raised a Christian, accepting all of the basic beliefs with little question. Like many others I was a Christian purely on an emotional level. It wasn’t until I was forced to research the Bible and Christianity that I became an Atheist.

If there are any other Atheist on the forum that did not arrive at their position in a similar manner, I would be very surprised.

Blackboo,

First of all, welcome to the forum.

Next of all, it is kind of hard to follow your logic on the reason you think we should answer the question of "If God was created who created the person who created God?"

The simple answer is we “non-believers/atheist” see it the exact same way as you do. The idea that someone had to created someone that created someone that created God is ridiculous.

The idea that the universe came into existence without a creator is just as logically valid as a creator coming into existence without a creator.

So the argument that universe required a creator is flawed.

The Bible - God's Word or Man's? - What Convinces You?

by sweet pea in

having believed the whole bible, hook, line and sinker all these years i get the impression many of you have come to the conclusion that we should take it with a pinch of salt and not hold to it so dogmatically.

and some possibly believe in it just as much as you did when you were a witness.

to save me some time please, lovely people, as i am very lazy - could you share with me why you do or don't believe in it - what evidence there is either way and if there are any particular books that you found helpful in coming to your conclusions?

nvr,

LOL, I started to do that but was to lazy to finish it.

Brother Apostate,

Couldn't the same thing be said and believed about any other religious book?

Brother Jed

by hilannj in

brother jed came to my college campus today.

he and his partner told us all that we were going to hell for drinking and doing drugs.

i don't get the guy, does he really think that he is going to save anyone telling them that they are going to hell with out even knowing what they do, there was one guy there who is an atheist, but the greatest part was that brother jed even made the christians on campus mad, they felt they we being misrepresented by him, so they made signs that said we are christians and we love everyone!
