You know questions starting with 'why' are the questions that have shaped our scientific advance. You should be thankful for people who ask those questions.

I'm sorry if I or other people who don't share the same belief as yourself have offended you.

Could you please give me some sort of guidance and advice on how to get the answers for the things that I am wondering about.

I honestly want to believe in a supreme being, I really do. But I find it so hard to do so in the absence of the slightest clue that such an entity is real. If you have a way to verify it besides faith please kindly enlighten me, and then I would gladly admit that I am wrong.



People who don't share the same belief as me don't offend me at all, just the ones that mock god without really doing much to find out more and i don't mean just reading the bible. You need to talk to people that do believe in God and ask them how it impacts thier lives.

Nothing i say would ever make you say that you are wrong.
I can tell you of many "Miracles" that i have seen and been part of, if anything, at the very best that would only make you want to find out more.

Keep digging and when your heart tells you to, Talk to God, ask him into your life. Its as simple as that.
You can sit on the fence all your life watching others but untill you climb down you can never join in.

It's all to easy to be like others and mock things but it's a lot harder to find your own truth.

Try swimming upstream for a change. It's not easy but you will see things that others miss.

Please post something unique, constructive and not recycled material from the 700 club. Upon watching this video it does not change the fact that the country is broke, the planet is warming, politicians are corrupt and Steve Guttenberg is still making movies. Show me something I haven't seen, tell me something I don't already know. That or broaden your youtube search while listening to 'shiny happy people' and take in more Eno.


i'm not a big fan of this video but it appears to have good intentions

i would ask you a question.

whose belief is stronger .........yours that the world is warming

or his that there is indeed a god

some non believers like to talk down to those who believe in god ( I don't believe but i respect those that do/ b/c IMO religion is an option for strength in a beleif system)

I would guesstimate that you think those that believe in such things are "weaker minded" but i think it is just something that human nature allows us to be suseptible to falling into ......just like you likely have good intentions about the enviornment and at some level think that global warming is too big of an issue (pro enviornmental) not to have on your side so you believe it strongly, almost as strong as someone else is convinced in god, IMO both are duped (B/C both are likely propoganda) to further agenada that deals with greed and power/control that use leverage of peoples emotions to suck them in and make it tuff to get out, but it doesn't really matter because you believe it, and therefore you both see all information surrounding both topics from perception filters that rationalize information to strengthen or maintain your belief. and if i were in your shoes i would just rationalize that i have no idea what i am talking about UNLESS i gave my mind the option (and convinced myself i could impliment it) of feeling safe and changing my mind

this is a cool video and all man. a beautiful belief with good intentions. but really think about it. GOD nailed to the cross. god.....went through....pain? a human emotion? god....the creator of what we learn in the "quantum" field, downsized itself. into a human form? god....in a human form.

GOD did not ask to be nailed to a cross. people chose..with their free will. so tell me, if they wouldnt have been so hostile, and the method of death so painful, would you say god died for our sins.....through old age? well you know what? i would rather go to hell than think someone else died for MY choices. how dare you (in general) cast your sins on someone else. sooo....what about the people that died before god came into this world in human form? so if jesus died for our sins, and a man has a heart attack right after, then why does he have an easier ticket into this place of golden streets and peace and love where as OH!!!....sorry "jim" you were given more time to sin so u go to a place where u burn forever.

and i lack the knowledge so if someone can u2u me on this. did jesus ask to be nailed to the cross? and did he say he is dieing for our sins? and what does that even mean? the whipping boy? if god truly died for our sins then doesnt that mean everytime we sin we have just as quickly atoned??

now before anyone responds to this hastily, what i am asking may contradict your belief, but i am not trying to disprove you. i am simply trying to attain your knowledge and understanding. your perception. your BELIEF

In Lak'ech

What? seriously there Show time, you must be kidding. Oz is a joke. I read somewhere that "to the poor and powerless religion is truth, to the educated it is a myth, and to the powerful and rich it is useful. I could show you in five minuets so many contradictions in the bible you would not believe it (if you would open your eyes). Here is a start
www.infidels.org...
and not to mention the evil things that Oz says to do in the book. Try looking up what you should do with an unruly child for starters.
Ecclesiastics 30:11
Don't give him [your son] freedom while he is young, and don't overlook what he does wrong. Whip him while he is still a child, and make him respect your authority.

Deuteronomy 21:18-21 :
If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them:
Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;
And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.
And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.


Then some person will come here and say yes but we have gone to the new testament. Soo you mean to tell me that there are two bibles? what is truth with this Oz character. then we say oh yes we only support the parts of the bible that are in our best interest. COME ON, wake up it is fairy tale. legend. MYTH.
You can believe what you want my friend but I am not that gullible.
