To repent and ask for forgiveness I must believe in God right? Because if i can ask without believing in God, then i could just do that every day and i wont go to hell right? Eventhough i still dont believe in God.
But ur saying that the Bible is proof there is a God. But if i dont believe in God, why would i read the bible? And if i dont read the bible, how am i going to believe in god?
And even if i did read the bible and see the prophecies and see how these authors all wrote these stories and claim they were inspired by God. Well, what if they were wrong, and it wasnt God? How do we really know?
Its a belief...a faith. Which by definition is; the psychological state in which an individual holds a proposition or premise (argument) to be true without necessarily being able to adequately prove their main contention to other people who may or may not agree
Isnt it more rational to realise that in the past many people credited their God or Gods with things they couldnt explain or understand. Many of those things we do understand now, and know it isnt due to the supernatural or divine power.
There are many many things that are indisputable. Such as the statue of liberty, or the grand cannyon, so why is it that the existance of god himself is debated and therefore his laws are questioned because he asks people to put such faith in events and a book that was written thousands of years ago. Especally if the consequences of disobieying his commandments carry such severe punishments? If u wanted a child not to fall down the stairs u would make sure they understood just how dangerous the stairs were, and stop them from falling. Why cant the all powerful and loving and merciful God not be able to install belief in each and every human being?
