It's awful. [/quote] If you believe God is the Creator, do you believe that He made us perfectly until the fall of humanity? [/quote] The first part of your sentence is a false premise. God is not the creator. If he was, he is a terrible designer. [/quote] I asked the people blaming God for the bad design of humans if they believed that God was the Creator, and if they believe that, if they believe in the fall of man. I do believe God is the Creator. It’s not false, it’s my belief. [/quote] It is possible to have false beliefs. e.g., lots of people (usually children) believe in the Easter bunny and Santa Claus and God. Some adults still believe in God.[/quote] So you know which beliefs are false? God is a theological belief. Santa and the Easter Bunny are cultural, fictional figures. Approximately 81% to 83% of U.S. adults believe in God or a universal spirit. https://news.gallup.com/poll/393737/belief-god-dips-new-low.aspx https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/2025/02/26/religious-and-spiritual-beliefs/ 5 Beliefs in God, spiritual presences in more than 30 countries ... Approximately 72% to over 80% of the global population believes in God or a higher power, according to various international studies. While roughly 84% of the world's population identifies with a religious group, the number of believers in God—including those not affiliated with a formal religion—remains high, particularly in regions like Africa, Asia, and Latin America. https://gallup-international.com/survey-results-and-news/survey-result/more-prone-to-believe-in-god-than-identify-as-religious-more-likely-to-believe-in-heaven-than-in-hell [/quote] Are you saying that God is not a cultural, fictional, belief like the others? I say that it is. Why wouldn't it be? Just because you believe it as an adult? And this God of yours -- I bet you believe that he has only only set of characteristics and that other people who believe in a God or God with other characteristics are wrong about their god(s) and you are right.[/quote] You would lose whatever bet you placed about what I believe. I have no idea why you have an interest in my beliefs? You seem to be so ranting and angry about my supposed beliefs you typed “only” twice in your hurry to spout about what you “bet” I believe. I don’t care what you think about my beliefs and the fact you are mad about what others believe is a you problem. Find a healthy hobby or speak to a good therapist and ask them why the beliefs of others (especially absolute anonymous faceless strangers on the internet) move you so.[/quote] I bet you believe in stupid shit, that is the basic point of being a believer. Belief is not based on facts or evidence, just the "feels" :roll: [/quote] “The assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1).[/quote] Huh? What is this response supposed to mean? Quoting from an old book of fictional tales doesn't convey some profound meaning. [/quote] The Bible is a foundational collection of 66 sacred books, recognized by Christians as the inspired Word of God and a primary guide for faith, comprising the Old Testament (39 books) and New Testament (27 books). It tells a unified story of God’s love, redemption, and plan for humanity through the work of Jesus Christ, written by over 40 authors over 1,500 years. The Bible is widely recognized as the best-selling book of all time. According to Guinness World Records, it is the best-selling book of non-fiction, with an estimated 5 to 7 billion copies printed and distributed since its contents were standardized roughly 1,500 years ago. Guinness World Records [/quote] It is pure fiction and fantasy. Nothing more no matter how many "Christians" "believe" it to be so. [/quote] Religious books have their own category in libraries and bookstores. They are not categorized under fiction, nor under fantasy. [/quote] Because people are too afraid to accept truth that the Bible is fiction. :shock: [/quote] I've seen Bibles in the fiction section. I think someone moved them there. That's where they belong.[/quote] Religious texts belong in the non-fiction or religion/theology section of a library, specifically classified within the 200–299 range of the Dewey Decimal System, which covers religion, theology, and philosophy. The Bible is commonly placed under 220–229, while other religious scriptures are found in the 290s. [/quote]
