to help explain natural phenomenons.
On earth, I live my own life. If god came to me and asked me to kill someone my morals would jump in and I would disobey him. I'm sure it would be wrong to disobey him, but that's what I would do. If there is a god, then I'm sure he knows more than me. But that doesn't mean I'm gonna kill someone, I would rather take whatever punishment he would give me.I'm not sure it makes you atheist or hypocritical, I think it means you are confused and unfocused about what you believe. Any sane person would question a command from God to kill, but not many have stopped to think about what this means. It means you feel that you may know better than God. It means you are not convinced of his glory. It means you do not take to heart most of what the bible says (which we already knew). It means, above all, that you trust in yourself. Perhaps the God standing behind you and guiding your intuition is actually you. Perhaps it is your mind, your being, which is worthy of worship and glory. That might explain why, when you try to apply your idea of God to a practical world, you run into problems such as this. The feeling you have of God is real, but the image you have is simply a distorted and unrecognized reflection of yourself.
now im curious, what would be the list of "reasons to believe in god" ?

following out of fear (Absolutely makes no sense, "its a great big invisible guy in the sky! run for your lives!")
to explain natural phenomon "yeah, it mustave been some guy that did it"
some honestly believe there is something more to life "yes, there is this huge guy and he mustave created everything"
yep, lots of "reasons"

take a look at this whole page. Do you see any of that going on?
Religious dogma and myth separate the waters... given the person devoted to it is capable, yes.
Who said I posted that about the ranting and raving in this thread. What made you think that? I haven't responded to anything on this thread for weeks.
Those pictures depict what I have personally experienced in life not on a an internet forum. When I clicked on the link to this thread I'm pretty sure it said "List of Reasons You Don't Believe In God". I simply used cartoons to respond to the thread topic.

So Morgan, you don't believe in god because of religious people? IMO that's not a good reason to not believe in god....
Ugh sometimes I hate forums.
I meant to respond to the other thread about Christianity and ruining shit.
Obviously I'm not in the state of mind to type anything that would make any sense to anyone.
So you ask a question to ridicule the answer? What a dick lol.
A couple of posts ago you said you meant to post the picture in THIS thread because it served as your reason to not believe in god.
Alright well I'll get off your back lol,. Skyrim is badass....
