   Mark the reason why I raised questions about Creation is because I think it is one of the things which you should investigate  so as to know about the Creater (GOD).i don't believe any kind of big or giant bang can create such a perfect nature. we are a result of an accurately executed plan.

      Big Bang was a great work. Have you people heard about Stephen Hawkings and his best seller books??? This scientist also does not deny the ultimate power which is behind this big bang, big crunch, universe and time etc and has maintained a perfect equilibrium between them. This ultimate power is now being researched by modern day scientists under the theory of GOD PARTICLE
      
      The difference between an atheist and a religionist is that the former wants to prove the existance of God with a huge amount of money being spent on science projects and the later has already started believing the same thing on zero cost.

   2,000 years later and still we talk about Jesus Christ!
   (Past ,Present,Future)
   
   Is their any other man in history that has generated so much history,curiosty,investigation,interest and hope.
   I say hope because no matter how clever we are as humans,it is clear that we pretty much screw up along the way ,even when we discover or invent good things ,inevitably such is our nature someone can and will use it for the bad.
   
   Why is Faith a negative thing?
   What is wrong with having hope?
   God ,born as man.
   
   I accept that many people dont feel the same way as I do, people on here ,and people I see and talk to everyday, yet somedays I just wonder why with the media reporting death, destruction and economic gloom and doom ,pain and human misery from every corner of the globe ,why wouldnt you look more closely at this man Jesus Christ?
   Could it be silly human pride? or a fear of believing something too good to be true?
   
   Something else that puzzles me a little too.
   If Jesus means nothing and death to you is just 'being dead'
   What are you living for?

    I found him when I was four. I've never looked back since then. When I was four, I was abandoned and he was my only source of love and acceptance. Life has its ups and down and I've shared them all with him. I never thought I could get closer to him. It happened just recently. I started chemo for breast cancer. The chemo treatment brought me to my knees. It has his hand on my shoulder that kept me moving forward in loving my experience.
    
    I knew from experience if I allowed fear or anger to move into my heart. I would be moving myself away from him. It took me mentally picturing myself just holding me. I kept telling me to love my experience so I wouldn't move myself away from him. It worked and I'm deeply grateful for the experience.

Mohit here disagrees with both of you and tells me they are both the same god -  because he is enlightened enough to understand what most mortals cannot.

    Based on my research and experience I am not at all sure he existed and if he did he was not as portrayed in the Bible stories or indeed, elsewhere!
    
    In my personal experience many years ago in an evangelist City Temple in Cardiff, at a very low point in my life, and when I was being told that Jesus was there that night and would enter anyone in the congregation who desired this, and that Jesus would take away your sorrow and never leave you, and that if you wanted this to raise your hand, I did so and nothing happened apart from I discovered what a complete con the preacher and the whole thing was. As soon as I had raised my arm the preacher called out that one brother out there (me) has been saved and had accepted the Lord Jesus Christ into his life. As soon as he said this others raised their hands. So my action had set off the other people following. Jesus was not in the building and the whole thing was an exercise in mind control.
    
    At another point in life I spent a year studying with Jehovah's Witnesses who told me that to stop smoking I needed to sincerely pray to Jehovah God through his son Jesus Christ. I did so and nothing happened. I quit chain smoking many years later myself when I was in Scientology. So Scientology worked for me and Jesus and Jehovah didn't!
    
    So in my experience Jesus was not there, or if he was he ignored me and when I prayed to him he ignored my prayers! So I conclude that for me he isn't real!

          It doesn't work for me and that was the point I was making: I had faith in both instances quoted but there was no result, no divine intervention, no nothing, just me back to square one. But I'm not complaining because these experiences and others with other pathways I got involved in taught me that I don't need any organised religions or non-existent deities! The scriptures prove very little - only that somebody at some time wrote them and the details of who and when and why have been argued about ever since!

       ordinarily unlike the defeated man(Adam). The spilling of His blood on the earth(His death) and His Resurrection were the perfect mystery unknown to mortals, including lucifer(prince of this world uptill the resurrection of Christ).   
       His Resurrection re-assigned the mystical and spiritual orders that do exist. Too BIG for the religious folks, self, and the entire science to comprehend. He is now the Lord of Hosts.

          Because the soul could never die, and the fall of Mankind brought spiritual and temporal death, that is they were cut off from the presence of the Lord, it is expediant that they should be reclaimed from this spiritual death. However because they became carnal, sensual and potentially devilish by nature, this state became a probationary state, laying the plan of redemption asside, as soon as they were spiritualy dead they should be cut off from the Lord forever.
               So It is the plan of mercy which cannot be brought about except there were an atonement set forth for us. Therefore God himself atones for the sins of the world to bring about the plan of mercy to appease the demands of justice so God can be perfectly just and merciful at the same time.

          Yes some times we sin against him, but he is always there to forgive us if we ask for that, and that is why i love him always. I asked him for forgiveness for publishing that hub that offended hubbers, and i am sure he has forgiven me.

             So - do as you please and jesus will forgive you no matter how many people you upset, hurt or offend huh? Nice. How about developing some ethics instead? No - too easy? Saves developing any standards I guess. Good for you. You must be a catholic.

                   I don't care what you do, nor am I offended by it - so you do not need my forgiveness. I do find it amusing that you "Love jesus" and write the stuff you write though. You are a great argument in favor of the whole idea being garbage. Thank you - I appreciate it.

    The fact is that most people find it difficult to forgive those that offend them even when the offender feels remorse, the love to apply the law of Moses instead of the law of Jesus Christ. Though sometimes i feel that it might be because of whatever bad reputation that most unworthy citizens of my country had created for us through scams that is causing people to bounce on me even at a mere joke by me, so i have learnt my lesson, that is the world of unequal opportunities and status for us. How i wish you would read that book by me, you will understand me better.

       It's a lot simpler than that! You have made comments that annoyed people. You keep doing it, and you are seeing honest responses.
