I have a bit of difficulty in labeling my religious beliefs...I guess I'm in the camp of "there may or may not be a god...but I don't know". I have, perhaps incorrectly, labeled this "I don't know" camp as Agnostic.

What I know is that I tend to base my beliefs on evidence...and I simply haven't had evidence presented to me that pulls me in either direction of the god/no-god spectrum.

With regard to not jumping to the Athiest camp... I see the declaration that "God exists" and "God does not exist" as equally strong, evidence-lacking statements.

I dont belive in religion that's used to keep people divided and tamed and the word is religious means done out of habit I belive in God and his son Jesus.. Don't knock me or try to sway my beliefs it's just stuff I experienced to make me know he's real but like I said he gives us the ability of free will

If u didn't die in ur sleep that should be enough proof if your able to see and hear that should be proof if ur in ur right mind and not crazy sleeping under a bridge that should also help..people take too many thangs for granted like they are mandatory it's a blessing bruh

I'm not trying to knock your beliefs but you said that you'd rather die and be wrong than not believe in God and have him exist. My thing with the "free will" argument is that there isn't much free will in the relationship of "You can have free will and believe in whatever you want to, but if you don't believe in me then I'm going to burn you forever".

Then belive if u know that's a possible outcome then why is that's so hard.. On sum real shyt just try bruh you might be surprised by the outcome thank him when u wake before every meal when ur worried or even happy and see if anything comes out of it.. I was always taught to believe so I resented early on but when I actually did it for myself I saw things happen.. I dont want to get all preachy but it's hard not to because I know

I used to pray and read the Bible a lot. I started to realize that when I would hear Gospel songs about how loving, caring, and forgiving God was, I would not feel that when I read the Bible. Did the firstborn of Egypt feel like that when they were killed by God for something they had nothing to do with? Also, there were contradictions too. For instance, when God repented making humans and flooded the Earth. How could an all-knowing entity repent making humans? Being all knowing, he'd know that 500 zillion years before he even created Adam and Eve that he would repent making humans. That's a logical contradiction. Also, why would an all-powerful and all-knowing entity demand that I worship Him? He's all-powerful and cares about what I think so much that he'd torture me for all eternity over it? As for me knowing that it's a possible outcome and not believing, you could say the same thing for all religions. Hell is a possible outcome in Islam, why not be a Muslim?

If you believe the characters in these holy books is the creator of THE ENTIRE fukkING UNIVERSE, I don't know what to tell you. :mjlol:

If you don't believe in/worship any god claim, you are an atheist. Most atheists don't claim to KNOW there are no gods (whatever "god" even means).
