Sorry if I stepped on your toes Manu, I like your posts.

I'm not saying I can grasp what God really is either, I don't think anyone can.
I have spent a lifetime communicating with Him though,
and in doing that, it is is impossible to deny His existence.
If you've never tried it, you can't know.
 Quoting: K.Kool


I know life's hard and people have a need to believe in something to make it through, but I am sorry, I can't tolerate wild claims for things that have no basis in provable reality.

I am sure this universe had an origin and things seem to be structured in a too orderly fashion to be random, but from there to conceive some being who you have to worship to be able to attain some familial relationship with him there's a long stretch.

I stick to what I said, if you want to worship the creator work to make creation better, all your beliefs amount to nothing if you don't
 Quoting: Manu-Koelbren




Well, to tell you the truth, I would find life far easier if I just went along with the masses and didn't believe in God.

But, I agree, work to make the world better,
[the planet is already perfect]
it is a natural consequence of faith.
 Quoting: K.Kool


Faith or belief in God is not so important in the grander scheme of things, if you believe in God but you act against the universal laws your belief amounts to nothing, and if you don't believe but do your duty, surely you're amongst the most worthy regardless.

We know that belief in God doesn't automatically make people better but we know for certain people have killed millions in the name of God. Maybe this is also due to a misconception of what God really is, but IMO I am starting to think we need to put more emphasis on what is the right path for people to follow in life to make this world better and less on worshipping a flawed human conception of what God is.
 Quoting: Manu-Koelbren




Faith and belief are a bit different, faith is a dynamic process, while belief is an adopted, static position.

Not having faith or belief, and doing your duty, is worthy in the eyes of mankind, and I applaud it too, and I'm sure it pleases God, but He ultimately sees things differently, if you ignore Him, you lose the chance for eternal life, and I don't mean reincarnation.
I know it sounds harsh, but we have free will.

Yeah, right action is needed for sure, but I guess I see it as unsustainable without belief, the human heart is a capricious entity.
