    I am very bored with the bible trained belief system when there is no logic, only faith and interpretation to answer questions in a circle arguement to protect a government separatist god.


    Now, just for entertainment, I will have a conversation with myself as a non believer and answer my own questions through faith and interpretation as a believer.


    Me: Why would your god create everyone an individual to follow the same belief?


    Believer Interpretation: Well, God is every belief. It is your free will to choose to follow or not.

    Me: If I don't believe, wouldn't I go to hell?


    Believer: Yes, but you are missing the point. The bible is about love, not hell. All you have to do is accept Jesus, how hard is that?


    Me: So I have to accept a belief that separates me from others to go to heaven?


    Believer: You have the free will to believe or not. Who wouldn't want to go to heaven?

    Me: Why did god intervene physically with the bible, but not intervene to save innocents from dying?


    Believer: That would be interrupting free will. Besides, maybe he lets them die to teach us from living in sin.


    Me: I thought jesus already died for our sins?


    Believer: Next question please.

    I'm with you marine...I already ahd some broad tell me that I was on the path of destruction because I am not catholic, I'm the New Age/Unitarian believer. And I was like so? I am proud of who I am and sick of ppl like you who tell me that I'm going to hell because of what I believe when GOD is the one who put me on the path I am on now. *GAG*

      I completely agree with you, but for our entertainment, I will respond as a believer.


      Believer: God didn't put you on that path. That is the path you chose. We all have free will to take the right path. Jesus loves you and wants you to make the right choices.


      And they say they aren't a separatist belief! Ridiculous.

    Me: If the bible is not a separatist belief, why does it teach separatism of belief?


    Believer: It doesn't. If everyone would follow, we wouldn't be separate.

    Me: Everyone doesn't follow, doesn't that mean it is a separatist belief?


    Believer: The bible is true. You need to research. I have good book suggestions if you want me to email them to you.

      And they say they don't have limited minds. How is a mind not limited when it is defined within a book?


      Believer: My mind is not defined to a book. God gave me an unlimited mind. All thoughts aren't good anyways, the devil is behind many negative thoughts.

        Me: then why read the book? it was written by MAN NOT GOD.

        Believer: because God told man what to write.


        which isn't true in anyway because the man takes what he wants from the teachings and writes their interpretation not God's or Jesus' at all.

          Ha, excellent! Surprised I didn't write that one before you. Clearly I am not the only one tired of circular faith based separatist belief.

            Oh trust me marine I am sick of it too. Yes I still believe in God and some of his teachings but I believe in a lot more now that I have grown up and able to think on my own, to feel on my own, and to come ito contact with other religions with an open mind and open heart. know what I mean?

              I also believe in individual belief, no matter what the belief, as long as it doesn't create separatist grouped belief where you are contradicting having an individual mind in the first place. Know exactly what you mean. Cheers to your individual mind.

    Why did god created Hell in the first place, if he doesn't want us to go in there ?
    Why did he put the tree of wisdom in front of Adam and Eve ,if he didn't want his creation doomed ?
    and last but not least, Why a god would created such imperfect creation, being all powerful and with the means to create a perfect world ?

      Believer: God didn't create hell, the devil did. Adam and Eve had free will to choose or not, he didn't want to intervene their free will. The world is perfect when you have faith and believe.

        Actually the free will is true...that is why I am more open minded and open hearted about other religions and beliefs as well as respect those who do not believe. big_smile
