Yes.
The succotash is suffering.
Why would a perfect god create an imperfect world

Whats the point of prayer and you pray for something that doesnt happen

They say God has his will and has a plan

Ok if god has a plan then prayer means nothing

This is a weird gimmick to have.
DI MOLTO!

He did create a perfect world and human free will undid it when they were told you have free reign over anything you desire except this one thing

That always bothered me. So one person damns humanity as a whole to suffering. And why did god let the snake/Lucifer into the garden of Eden in the first place to tempt Eve? Was god have a bet with him like how they did Job?
Fix your hearts or die.
When I sin I sin real good.
I do think that there is maybe some sort of higher entity that's not quite possible for us to comprehend, but that's the extent of my belief.
I am Lord Miquella. Google me, *****!
No, I wouldnt believe something without evidence or unless it made sense
I have no reason to believe such a thing

It depends what you mean by God

the religions are just created by human imagination

There is no god, happiness is just an artificial construct for capitalism, and when you die, it is nothing but the cold darkness surrounding you as you forget you even exist for all of eternity.

Where's the proof. A passage from a book or church doesn't count. Where's the science.

No.

An advance race of beings could still fit the criteria we have for deities.
If you can travel the universe at will defying the laws of physics, they might as well be deities. The thing is they are stuck here with the rest of us. When they die, It's the same as the rest. There is no after.

No, I don't believe in God/Santa/Easter Bunny/Lucky the Leprechaun.
It is impossible to live in the past, difficult to live in the present, and a waste to live in the future.
(He/Him).
The older I get, and the more I learn about life and the universe, the less I believe in a god. There's just too many things that goes against a higher power. For example: Every living thing that exists exists on its own accord. Living things only got here because of trial and error and traits being passed on. Living things are just chemical reactions.
Another thing is that a god doesn't make sense. Nothing can physically exist with that much power. And if it does, we would have seen it in action, either from god showing up on Earth or a galaxy being destroyed in an instant because of blasphemy.
Another thing is that a god is redundant. You don't need a god for morals or for an afterlife. A good person can be a good person without a god. An afterlife can exist either through reincarnation. To add to that - You don't even need an afterlife if we can figure out immortality.

With all that being said, let's say there is a god. I don't think it would be the ones we think of (Abrahamic, etc.) It's probably something very boring and mundane - like it's a particle that can control all of the particles. However, it doesn't think or feel. It's almost like an inanimate object that is 'alive' if that makes any sense. That's the only 'god' that I think could exist.
Yes. I believe we are already in hell and when we die we go to heaven.

God and religion is just fantasy

Convince me Im wrong
-----
1.I absolutely think God is real.

2.I absolutely think science and faith are fully compatible.

3.I am absolutely fine if people believe differently than I do. Faith is deeply personal. Most of my family of origin does not believe in God, and they are the best people I know. If you are a person trying to do good things in your corner of the world and treat people with respect, then you are my brother or sister. I dont care what your religion is, or if you have no religion at all.

4.People who use religion to divide, judge, or attack others make me sick (looking at you far right). My God has a very clear command to respect, include, and love everyone, no matter who they are. The people using religion as a cudgel instead of a command to do as much good as possible with as open and inclusive a heart as possible are completely missing the point.
An opinion does not turn into a fact simply because the person holding it feels strongly about it.
Sometimes it feels like we're in a simulation, though. Life is so fragile - it almost feels like a game that some developer invented to pass the time. Life can be tragic and shitty. You can die tomorrow, you never know. If there is a god, they made this universe for fun, and it's fucked up.

I'm fond of the belief that these people all end up in Hell.

I almost added a line about this to my original post: I absolutely dont believe in Hell. But if I am wrong and there is one, I think the people I describe in 4 are absolutely going.

Maybe make a separate thread for that?

Its an interesting topic of discussion for sure.

If Christianity is right no one is in hell or heaven anyway. The dead are all in purgatory awaiting judgment day.

thats why republicans are so eager for judgment day
I could see you, but I couldn't hear you You were holding your hat in the breeze Turning away from me In this moment you were stolen...
I'm of the belief that if one does exist he's a real prick.

I don't believe humanity currently has the capacity to fully understand our place in the universe let alone an entity that supposedly created it. I certainly don't believe in man-made religions.

Nope. Republicans are so eager for judgement day because they are convinced that on that day God (who they think is just as much of a bigoted asshole as they are) will visibly smite everyone Republicans think needs smiting. It's the exact same reason they love Trump and pretty much worship him as at least a demigod.

I believe god is the forces of physics that govern this universe and make it possible.
SEXY SEXY!
No, it's just mythology.
There are no happy endings because nothing ends.
Im open to the idea though i would prefer it not to be the case so as to assume an afterlife would also not exist. And either way even if such a being exists i doubt its been identified by humans to the extent of having a religion built around them.

No, and if Yahweh were real then they're a terribly fucked up being given the state of the world and what it allows to go on, so I would have no love for it either way.
