Today at 08:12 AM Erwin said this in Post #5 I'm happy for this thread to be reopened. Mind our forum rules, and this thread will remain open. Religion threads are always controversial as they deal with the basic question of faith. The belief of an absence in God is just the same as the belief in the presence of God - both requires faith, because we do not know if God exists or not. The only way we know is if we know all there is to know in this universe. If you do not know 100% of all there is to know in this universe, then you can never say he exists or he doesn't. It's a matter of faith.
Agreed, its a matter of yourself, and mostly how you are brought up. People say god created earth and stuff, scientists say that the Big Bang created...whatever. They say the big-band occured due to many gases forming together or something, so I ask them, where did those gas come from? Where did they original from? They can't just be there, and if they answer that, trust me when I say, I can question there "hypothesis" til they drop.
I am infact a strong believer, but will not go as far as to anhilate another race for there disbelief in my religion, or others beliefs in their religion. I will not attack another person for there beliefs, or even have disbelief in others religion. I think god is god, no matter what religion, race, skin colour..no mater anything, god will always be god, its a sense of faith, as Erwin stated before, but there will always be strong belief in god by many people, more than those of Science, it cannot be taken out.
I actually think scientists should stop trying to prove god does not exist, and work on finding cures for cancer and other diseases, and it seems more of a better use for there talents.
Also to those who have strong belief in science, and want to challenge me in the "creation of the universe field" feel free too, with only one question I can assure you 100% that the Big-Bang theory does not have ample proof of its origination.
