RE: The Book, The Bible, Cannot Be Proven as the Infallible Word of God, Therefore the Argument is Pointless

in #life8 years ago

There was no god, there is no god and there will never be a god.
We hypocrites need a god, but we will never find it.
Everyone may believe in a god, but all those religions are so human.
Religions have made us, what we are now, hypocrite fighters and more...
Also good things from religions, but no hand from god.
It's all human action.

Sort:  

I too am interested in why unbelievers feel the need to make such unprovably definitive statements everywhere they can. "Methinks the poster doth protest too much." as Shakespeare might say.

Since I happen to be a devout believer, I think you are the one who is missing the point. You need a magic book to confirm your faith.

I suppose it is true that everything I know about Jesus comes out of eyewitness testimonies passed down through the ages and collected in the Bible.

When it comes to any tidbit of information about Him or what He said, it either agrees with the Bible or it doesn't.

If it doesn't, I have to ask which is true - the Bible or whatever other competing source is endeavoring to contradict it.

It's really hard for me to imagine any other source of information that I would trust to override the teachings in the Bible.

I know that in the last days "false christs and false prophets will arise to deceive many people." The Bible is my primary defensive "checksum" against that.

John 1:1 - In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

That 'magic book' you speak of is God.

You need a magic book to confirm your faith.

Yes, guilty as charged. I need God to confirm my faith.

The Bible is your God? I'm not debating the truth of John 1:1, just that it refers to the paper pages, sandwiched between leather you carry.

Well, I could dispute that from my own experience. But, out of curiosity, what do you think caused all of this to come into being?

We should say "We don't know (yet)" and we maybe never know,
Can't you live with that, do you need a god for all you don't know?
Why do we need all these mystery gods.
We know that we know almost nothing and that is also thru for god and his friends.
Believing in a super power, that has created something {in 7 days), and than doesn't care or only for those who will earn heaven.
I am sure that science now could counter a lot of the origin of our recent believes.
But that will not help us, there is no alternative, so let's go with the gods.
If we could accept our destiny (we are alone here, without a god), that would also be an act of faith.
Personal experiences can give us another view and there is nothing wrong with that.
Everyone should believe what he wants, but without all those religions, but that has no value or meaning.

sjamayee, I'm afraid your comment is lost in translation.
