Atheist do you know why God isn't appearing in the sky for your sake of beliving?

Because sin parishes in the presence of God ,and you would simply parish . God loves mankind therefor he is staying away so you can be cleaned first by believing in his Son who is willing to clean you from all sin . Now that you know ,is there a difference in your beliefs even slightly? Be honest ..

    <Now that you know ,is there a difference in your beliefs even slightly?> No, not even slightly. Be honest? Honestly, if you have to argue and come up with increasingly unlikely excuses as to why gods don't appear, isn't there less and less reason to think they do? Why don't you be honest about that?

    .

    And it's 'perish', not 'parish'. Two different things.

    "Because sin parishes in the presence of God, and you would simply parish "

    Are you calling me a living pile of sin? I would take offense to that but Christians have called me worse.

    "God loves mankind therefor he is staying away so you can be cleaned first by believing in his Son who is willing to clean you from all sin."

    Sounds a bit convoluted. Jesus was able to walk around with sinful people without killing them right? Why doesn't Jesus just appear in my bedroom, let me feel the holes in his hands like he did for doubting thomas, and perform a few miracles just for good measure? He could do that for everyone individually and problem solved. Nearly everyone would be convinced. It's not really fair he performed miracles in person for a few people but wont do it for everyone. We should all get the same chance. It's not like he can't easily do it right?

    "Now that you know ,is there a difference in your beliefs even slightly? Be honest .."

    "Now that I know"? I don't believe things just because they are written in the bible, or just because a Christian makes a claim. I humored you for the sake of argument but nothing you said or mentioned has any bearing in reality. That's what I "know".

    Get reeal child people like you not only drive people further away from God but are the reason so many DECENT people are becoming ANTI THEISTS!

    Pew News reports Christianity is shrinking with a corresponding rise in atheism!

    Five times as many Americans in 2014 said they never prayed compared to those asked the same question in the 1980s

    "Beware of practicing your righteousness before men to be noticed by them; otherwise you have no reward with your Father who is in heaven. -Mat 6:1

    Treat a man as he appears to be, and you make him worse. But treat a man as if he were what he potentially could be, and you make him what he should be. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

    Christianity is not about hating others but about worshipping the LOVING GOD!!!!!!!

    perishes, not parishes. believing, not beliving. Why didn't god help you spell a simple word correctly? Either he doesn't exist or he thinks you're a douche unworthy of assistance.

    When has god ever appeared in the sky? Let's see - a burning bush, a pillar of fire, hmmm. Methinks you imagine him appearing in the sky just as you imagine him to be real.

    So you're saying you god is incapable of thinking up a way of proving its existence without destroying people, but can create a universe, and you're wondering if this is a convincing argument. Um, no.

    Wow. I never thought of it that way.

    Since you were able to so eloquently prove the reason why God does not reveal himself, I have done a complete 180 and am now a theist.

    Oh great Odin, All Father, forgive me.

    "Because sin parishes in the presence of God"

    I would have thought that God would be quite pleased at sin becoming a church territorial unit. I assume that is what you mean when you use 'parish' as a verb.

  • 5 years ago

    Probably for the same reason he hasn't appeared in the sky to help you spell "perish"...

    ... gods don't exist.
