Why can't some people just admit that God is real?!?

You cant prove there is not God no matter how many excuses people make. All you have to do is look around you and the beauty in this world and in the world it's self. No rediculuous big bang created life. Only God did this. Praise the Lord!

HAHA I can see what your getting at. This isnt a battle that you can win. Neither can I. I'm christian but a relaxed one. People have their opinions and who am i to tell them different. I dont beleive everything I hear. I beleive things that i know however. And I dont know for sure that a god even exist. I guess thats the whole concept to a religious faith alone. People tend to take the bible TOO literal. Then things begin getting mixed up. I am a scientist as well, some things in the bible just dont make sense. But if you read a book that offered a way for you to live in a sunny nice beach, and youve lived in the projects all of your life...and all you had to do has follow the books teaching...would you take it? I'm sure you see what i'm getting at as well.

It could be, it could not be. Its one of those things you have to experience and study yourself, and come to your own conclusions. One could ask "Is God for real"? And in reality, nobody has 100% solid proof that God is "for real". You just have to believe in it yourself regardless of what other people think.

Faith does not rely on reality. It is a willingness, even desire, to believe in that which cannot be proven to exist. You can literally create any reality you want to, and if you have enough faith in it, that reality will appear solid and indisputable, to you, regardless of how unrealistic it is, or how little sense it makes. A lot of religious people don't really grasp this concept.

Because its so real, and its the truth, and i think some people are scared of it. "The Truth Hurts" people dont have as much conflict over lies as they do the truth. Christianity is the truth thats why their is so much controversy. People only mock the True living God. thats why you hear people say stuff like, "Oh My God, " you dont hear people say "Oh My Buddah" or something like that lol. Anyways hoped that helped.

Sometimes, when folks learn a new truth, they get real excited about going out and sharing it with others. Unfortunately some of them will ruin their credibility (and God's) by being kinda pushy about it. \nIt's kinda like giving a child a new toy. If you leave them alone with it for too long they become dangerous with it.

maybe you dint find a real believer in God, who is to have an argument with!\n\ni mean believing in something is a symbol of emotional dependancy or some sort of confidence over the 'unknown' that it would help their .. watever! so, people should know whether they really believe or whether they think that they believe or whether they are testing their faith. a person who selflessly believes in god will argue with you better than a person who is a believer for his own reasons. so it depends on the mentality of the person you are arguing with.\n\nLastly i am not contending with your opinion and neither am i condemning it. I am also not trying to argue with you. I am not an atheist. I am not a christian either. you have your right to believe whatever you want.. and so have I. Loosing an argument doesn't prove that gods dont exist and winning an argument doesnt prove either. stop taking things personally and find people who you really want to contend with, the 'arguable' people.

Jesus told us very clearly about God, and that he is REAL, many people question Jesus as the son of God, but all those miracles he performed were to prove it. so, as he is telling the truth, there is a God. You need faith.

GOD is GOD.\nGOD is LOVE.\nGOD is TRUTH.\nGOD is JOY.\n\nYour body is WHAT you are IN, not WHO you are.....\n\nThe reason you cannot SEE God, is there is nothing else to see.... nothing to compare God too.\n\nReligions are HUMANITY trying to explain the unexplainable.\n\nThe main reason this reality seems so real is that people forget everything else.... \nGod does not forget anything or anyone.

Better stated would be "How do YOU know God is real?"  The very creation you live in is a testimony of His power.  The very air you breathe testifies of Him. The fact that He lets you live when you do things less than right, is a testimony of His patience and love for you.  We aren't given PROOF otherwise you would not need to "live by faith".\n  Practically speaking what if all those true believers going around doing good things in the name of Jesus, and trying to help the weak are wrong and there is no God. Was it such a terrible way to live your life?  But what if they're right and the non believers have to stand before the very One they would not acknowledge as real?  Who ends up with the bad deal?  Pray that the Lord would call you to understanding the simple yet complex word known as "faith"

I don't think God is real, I know God is real because I had what they now call a Near-Death Experience (N.D.E.) at the age of 12 in 1972 that convinced me beyond a shadow of a doubt.  Since then, due to spiritual study and practice, I've had numerous Out-of-Body Experiences (O.B.E.s) in which I've actually been conscious of my spirit leaving my physical body.  I have a B.S. degree Magna Cum Laude, was a member of Outstanding College Students of America, a College-Bowl All Star (like "Jeopardy" except for college students), and was a professional journalist for many years.  Don't believe some of the misguided and egotistical scientists and college professors who believe and teach that this physical/material life is the proverbial "whole ball of wax," because to put it bluntly, "It ain't!"  God (The Divine, Source, etc.) does exist, and you are an immortal spiritual being having a temporary physical learning experience on the Earth.

Man, loaded but great question.\n\nThere is not enough truth to convince people of anything they don't want to believe when it comes to God.  Its a faith based system, by his design.  Ever asked yourself why faith?\n\nBecause to truely put our faith in God, seeing him from a lost perspective, requires that we set aside our "me" mentality.  We have to put our faith in this thing we don;t understand based on information that seems less than convincing (from a lost perspective.)  But this all important step is all that is asked of us.\n\nBetter to pray the spirit call to a person's heart and start working on them to ask questions, than to seek truth to convince those who have already decided they want nothing to do with God.  We are truely powerless over others is swaying their beliefs.  All we can hope for is to plant seeds and allow the spirit to go to work.\n\nread through some of the posts on here.  Its CRAZy.  People are daring you to "make them believe" in God.  Its not possible.  It wasn;t meant to be possible.  Its a faith based thing.  Free Will + Faith = Individual Decision.\n\nI know I didn't answer your question directly, but trying to accumulate enough knowledge to "win souls" will be a really frustrating endeavor that will ultimately bring you back to realizing The Holy Spirit does ALL the work in a salvation experience.

Everything around you is true because of god caring for you. Anyone who says there is no god is making a fool of himself coz his/her very existance is due to a power beyond his/her imagination and control which we name god. This is regardless of religion/holy books. Imagine what would be your situation if you were running for your life in a place like Iraq. Instead you are sitting before your laptop , having fun in a protected environment, drinking coffee, hearing music and talking crap that "God is not there"...lol....which by itself proves that god cares. Some things are beyond explanation....

i dont know about that. but i do think that many christians cant really handle hearing ppl talk about "god" in a way that implies there isnt one. i know plenty of christians that would argue it all day and night with you. and i bet you'll get a few that will answer this Q.\n\nbut when you boil it all down, you cant prove that god does/does not exist. just because ppl say he does, or a book says so, that doesnt give us any proof. i've read a book about a talking cat in a hat, and some green eggs and ham. that doesnt mean its true. and just because theres no proof that god exists, that doesnt disprove his existence. the absence of evidence is NOT, the evidence of absence. once upon a time everyone "knew" that the world was flat, because there was no proof otherwise. well, guess what, they were wrong. i've never seen a billion dollars. prove to me it exists. unless you can put it in my hands, i dont need to believe you. well, i bet you've never seen it either, but guess what, we believe its out there.
