Today many people are unhappy, and millions of others are unemployed. But on the other hand, millions are finding encouragement from the Bible.

// Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life.He who believes in Me, though he maydie, he shall live//

yup look no sin - unless there is a lacuna ( you never know this is AB after all - watch out deep thinkers at work !) that misses out - take your knickers off you naughty girl - I know what you did to get all that scented expensive oil you have just poured all over me" ) er my attenpted translation

the oil bit is later in John - S and M even later
Atheist, am I arrogant? Yes maybe I am, but not consciously, but I accept your description if that's what you think.
Regarding Gods character, I have no problem.
It seems you do though.
The evidence is all around us argument is such a cop-out.

That is absolutely not evidence.
Theland, I just asked why a first cause argument could lead to a detailed description of god's characteristics.
DD - Whatever ........
What you think of me is of no consequence.
Atheist - I believe the Bible. That does it all for me.
Theland, are you going to stop making your 'evidence' claims? It seems a strange reaction, 'Whatever', when they are questioned?
Never - I have nothing to prove.
I am content with my beliefs.
Theland - // Whatever that Cause was, is God, and the universe is the evidence. //

You can say that, but it doesn;t make it true, as you, and I, say frequently.

// Look at life from inert chemicals. That too is evidence.
Science, with all!of it's computers and PhD's cannot make life. //

It's true, human scientists cannot create life, but that's not to say that there is not one, maybe trillions of alien species, which can create life with the ease that you and I breathe in and out.

The truth is, I don't know, and I don't care that I don't know.

You constantly look for people to believe your version of events, why I don't know, I suspect it is simple insecurity.

I know you will deny it, but unlike you, I merely offer it as a thought, it's not something you have to believe, and I don't need you to believe, I am not bothered either way.
Theland - // I have nothing to prove. //

Great - you can stop fretting about everyone else believing as you do then can't you?

Or not ...
Theland - // I am content with my beliefs. //

Your endless fretting on here says otherwise.
Theland, //Its Not a choice of gods.//

Why not? See my post at 18:25 Thu.

(Atheists don’t comfort themselves with anything. They accept that as with everything in nature they live - they die. That’s life.)

You say you know the Bible, then what does it say in Ecclesiates about this?

// Whatever that Cause was, is God, and the universe is the evidence. //

There is abundant evidence that God exists. He is the Creator and with him 1 day is as a thousand years, so for those who say otherwise lets look at some evidence.
In the 17th century, Redi showed that maggots appeared in meat only after flies laid eggs on it. Bacteria were discovered and hailed as examples of spontaneous generation of life, but a century later Spallanzani punctured that balloon. In the century after that Pasteur settled it that “life comes only from life.” This is now unquestionable. Even Darwin accepted this, in the closing sentence of The Origin of Species that life originated by “having been originally breathed by the Creator into a few forms or into one.”

Man’s gifts of language, logic, creative thinking, music and art, his awareness of time past, present and future, his need for accomplishment and meaning and purpose in his life, his capacities for the qualities of justice, kindness, compassion and love—these set man far beyond any animal. This is not explainable on the basis of evolution, but is attributable to the creation of man ‘in the image and likeness of God.’ (Gen. 1:26, 27) Once again it is creation that fits the facts.
Even The fossil record does not support the theory of evolution. Creation fits its facts.
Roman:1:20 For his invisible qualities are clearly seen from the world’s creation onward, because they are perceived by the things made, even his eternal power and Godship, so that they are inexcusable.
//what does it say in Ecclesiates about this? //

You'll find out if you read it, goodlife.
Apparently there’s 8.4m in the JW cult, and yet only 144k of them will reach heaven.

Will you be one of them Goodlife?

A simple fact that seems to elude you is this -

Every single quote you cut and paste has been thought of, and then written down by a man.

A man like you and I who laughs, cries, eats, sleeps, lives, and dies.

There is no mystery involved.

No a man can write that God is real in the same way that a man can write that the moon is made of green cheese.

But writing it down does not make it a fact - and that situation does not alter, whether it was written yesterday, or two thousand years ago.

It's an idea, by a man, written down. Anyone can do it - I'm doing it now!!

My mother was an alien.

I don't believe she was, but I have thought it, and written it down, so it's as valid in reality as any and all the bible quotes you so assiduously find and paste on here in lieu of actually exchanging ideas with people.

See - it's easy, anyone can do it.
^^^quite.

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

A prophesy from Stephen King; that was a work of fiction as well.
//yet only 144k of them will reach heaven.

Will you be one of them Goodlife? //

Word has it that those with a ticket are already there. Goodlife will be among the rest who will inherit a perfect earth free of all us sinners.
^^^my mind boggles that people this rubbish.
