[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=anonymous]If you are reading this thread, do not listen to the people who are cherry picking Christianity to suit their anti-Christian agenda.

They don’t know what they are talking about. If they do know, they are purposely leaving huge and important parts of what prayer really is to support their anti-religious/anti-Christian beliefs.

Nobody has to like Christianity or be Christian, but also nobody should lie about it. Or listen to people who don’t know what they’re talking about. [/quote]

+10.

And the same principle applies also to other religions. [/quote]

Nobody was “lying”.

If people posting here claim to know answers to questions that have never been able to be answered, they are lying.

The most common thing claimed in these threads is “God doesn’t exist.”

[b]Nobody know if God exists.[/b]

Science has not demonstrated the existence of God, but science cannot definitively prove or disprove God, because the concept of God is outside of what science can test.

Billions of people throughout history have believed in some form of God or higher reality, while other people have been skeptical, agnostic, or atheist.

That’s it. That’s what we [i]all[/i] know. Nobody posting here has secret inside information on the status of God. Or Jesus.

So yes, if anyone here believes they know God doesn’t exist, they are either lying or delusional

If someone posts that they don’t believe God exists, that’s different. They are sharing their opinion, and everyone is entitled to their opinion on the matter. [/quote]

So if someone posts something about god(s) existing -- "God is great" -- then they are also "lying"?

I apologize if English isn't your first language, but that is not what "lying" means.

Someone posted: 
[i]"James 4:3 states that prayers often go unanswered because they are motivated by selfish desires rather than God's will. The verse, according to Bible Gateway, explains that requests are denied when asked with wrong motives ("amiss"), intended only for personal pleasure or passions, rather than for honorable purposes."[/i]

Which would be accurately summarized by: 
[i]"if you have “honorable” wishes, god will grant them"[/i]

That's not "lying".

To be clear: if anyone states God doesn’t exist, they are either lying or delusional.

The most accurate answer is:

The existence of God is not scientifically settled as His existence cannot be scientifically proven or disproven.

People reach different conclusions about God’s existence based on evidence, philosophy, experience, upbringing, and personal interpretation of reality.
