Hello I am faith and glad to be here.

Post #1

Post by faith »

I enjoyed reading the threads and wanted to join in and learn as well as share.
Thanks for the welcome pm and hope my stay is a pleasant one for all.
I am saved and believe that the only way to live is by every word of God.
In this day and age it is is difficult to live as a believer and I think forums like this are great for helping believers and atheists, understand each others beliefs better.



Love Faith.xx :D

Perhaps I misspoke. I searched for evidence and found nothing valid. Everything that was presented as evidence for the existence of the Christian God simply did not qualify as evidence. I wanted to believe in the myth, but honesty compelled me to reject it.
How did the lack of evidence you use to dismiss belief in God, weigh up against the evidence of your existence and the world around you?
Existence confirms god? How?

On what do you base this opinion?
"Whatever you are totally ignorant of, assert to be the explanation of everything else"

William James quoting Dr. Hodgson

"When I see I am nothing, that is wisdom. When I see I am everything, that is love. My life is a movement between these two."

MODERATOR SUGGESTION:
Just a friendly reminder here for all participants, not Bernee51 alone, this is a discussion section and Faith is simply introducing herself. If we want to debate assertions, can we move them to the debate section rather than challenge them in an introduction?
What we do for ourselves dies with us,
What we do for others and the world remains
and is immortal.

-Albert Pine
Never be bullied into silence.
Never allow yourself to be made a victim.
Accept no one persons definition of your life; define yourself.

-Harvey Fierstein
