Do you believe in god?

I don't want this to turn into a heated debate, religious sermon, or anyone become angry. It's just an innocent question and if you want to give your view on why you voted this way, please do so, but do NOT criticize others view. It's their view and everyone has their own right to it. I believe there is a god, there has to be a god when I think about it, but I'm not so sure god cares about us. There are a lot of pretty fucked up people in this world and some in some pretty horrible situations. I know why "god allows the suffering" reasoning from the bible, but to me that's a pretty self centered approach. If I was god, I wouldn't care what some people thought, I'm god and I don't have anything to prove to anyone. So there's my vote, yes I believe in god, but I'm not sure god cares about us.

Re: Do you believe in god?

Well, I haven't been to church in awhile, but I do believe in God. But sometimes I question things.
I think the movie "Dogma" explained it best.
You don't question it when your a little child. Your glass is small and is easy to fill. But when you get older, the glass gets bigger and the same amount that it took to fill the small glass isn't enough anymore to fill the bigger one.
So, yes I believe in God but sometimes I don't know how much.

I believe in God. But i can understand why its very tough for some people to believe in him if they try their hardest in life, but always seem to fail, or they had no choice in their life, or whatever.

Re: Do you believe in god?

1. Yes I believe in God.

2. We are living in hell ... I believe that when you are sent to hell, you keep coming back to Earth to live in this shithole, where you get killed for a pair of sneakers, or your own mother stabs you in the back with a steak knife and leaves you half naked sitting in 8 inches of snow when you're only 11 months old so she can get a fix, or you bust your ass to make a living and the taxes keep you poor, or you try to follow your religion and some fuicking zealot killls you because his religion says your evil... it's ridiculous.

I am a non-practicing catholic. The recent publicity has made it crystal clear that I lead a better life than most priests, and knowing a bunch of the parishoners... I can say that a LOT of them have no business stepping foot in a church. I do the best I can, help whoever I an whenever I can, try to be the best man, husband and father that I can, and hopefully I won't have to come back to this shitheap and deal with the problems we've allowed ourselves to create.

3. Human beings are communal. One person affects the next. So as far as the "good" person who has all the horrible thing happen to him... it's just a result iof the human condition. Free-will has aloowed us to come to such a state that you could be on your way to church and your child could be killed by a stray bullet from some asswipe drug addicts shoot out.

Ahhhh... this whole thing is hugely philosophical, I believe in God and Jesus and all. My beliefs don't have to be the same as yours, and neither of us is wrong for believing what we believe. (That was a mouthful). I just hope all these wars and all aren't the sign of the second coming if there is one.

Whatever...

Re: Do you believe in god?

I voted for "I don't know", because I just dunno. I find it difficult to beleive that the universe and life was created by a supernatural entity/entities, but I have no ground to say that it is impossible either. I do not particularly put any faith in Heaven or Hell, nor do I commit my soul to worship or trust my destiny to someone/something I can't see, but I will not say that the mojority of the world is wrong and I am right either. The only thing that I can be 100% certain of is that this life may be the only chance we have in this world, so I just try to live the best life I can and be a good man, and hopefully if there is a God and there is a Heaven he will understand and accept me. I do not claim any religion, because if there is something so spectacular as a God/Gods, I doubt any human comprehension of it is accurate.

Re: Do you believe in god?

There is no way in 666's House am I going to leave this posts up for 666 days. I changed it to 66 and thats pushing it, cause most polls are up for only 1 month at the max.

Anyway, its a major delimma for me, On one side I believe (or want to believe), on the other hand I don't. But If I were it would have to be multiple gods not just one. Which would explain to me why some things are good and some are bad.

Re: Do you believe in god?

I just hope that heaven is like a giant diner that has Lager, Philly Cheesesteaks with, Wally Biscotti and Canoli's.... Like a 300 gallon Lager, 200 foot cheesesteak and a 105 foot canoli.

**Dreams of scantily clad female angels dangling cheesesteaks and canoli's like grapes into the mouth of a king, with beer fountains of Lager and milk-stout cascading gloriously down ice channels within reach of my 40 gallon goblet...***

Uhoh... My fat person is waking up. It's getting close to dinnertime, isn't it?

Re: Do you believe in god?

ummm you know what bothers me about the concept of heaven. Its that if I die and go to heaven I would expect to see all my love ones there, but what if one of my love ones did something very evil at one time in their life. He/She wouldnt' be up there and be in hell instead. With so many restrictions and rules to go by, what I might find good others will not. So whos to say I will find all my friends up there.
