The Impossibility of God?

Nobody was God or his son. It is just simple humans rising to abnormal heights due to their abilities.

One thing that I don't like is that some person claims or his supporters claim that he is the God or son so nobody else can be the same. There cannot be one God Because belief cannot be centralised or unified under one command.

I respect your opinion. In this respect, the Indian religion is the best. Any good person can attain the status of god by virtue of his deeds. There is nothing such as an all powerful, infalliable god.

If you look at my signature, it signifies the essence of the Indian religion. You yourself are the God, Universe, Your fate & the master of destiny.

He rose from the dead. What after that ? 

Originally posted by jayeshks A friend of mine once told me about a statistical approach to the subject.  It deals with just looking at simple incentive/gain probabilities for any event, like for example in gambling, you would choose whether to place a bet based on the size of the possible winnings involved.  Well with God, the off chance that God does exist, the reward/gain is infinite and so no matter what the odds, an infinite gain makes it worth betting on every time.

next problem: there are hundreds of religions. Which one should you follow? The one with the nicest heaven and worst hell?

I do believe their is a god there is much evidence that scientists cannot deny.

People can always deny everything, after all there are still some people who deny the obvious and insist that the world is 4000 years old.

As far as I'm concerned the damning proof (no pun intended) is the Quran. I do not believe that could be written by a person now, let alone 1400 years ago.

I don't mean any offense by this but I have to point out, according to Christianity, God condemned all mankind to hell then had a son, sent him to earth where he was tourtured and slowly killed by crucifiction so that god could forgive mankind - or the specific part that believed it happened - from hell, and this is supposed to be a symbol of all things good?

Why exactly did god require the death by torture of his "son"?

If Jesus was recenrly killed in the electric chair, would all Christians wear little golden electric chairs around their necks?

because it was to pay the price for mans sins, so that now we can pray to God freely, without having to make a blood sacrifice, like in the old testament. the price has already been paid with Gods sons' blood.

But that is where he would have gone immediately after the first death. Why does he have to come back from the heaven for some days & go back. Their are also a lot of similiar stories in Indian religion, but I have still not been able to iunderstand their logic. may be I am wrong in looking for logic in a matter such  as a faith.

Originally posted by LilLou there is too much evidence too proof that god exists, our universe contains too much order for our existence to have been created out of chaos the world is too complex beyond our imaginations here are some examples,  discoveries in astronomy have shown beyond a reasonable doubt that the universe did have a beggining, there was a moment of creation, advances in molecular biology have revealed vast amounts of information in each cell they found thousands of designed machines,which tells us that there is a higher intelligence that we don't know of. so ask yourself if u you believe in right or wrong, then ask yourself why who gave you your conscience?? why does it exist............    does that give u answers
