My mind won't allow me to believe in a god. Do any of you believe in one? What's your best evidence?

Preacher was calling out names, called out mine and other people who had never seen him before nor had he ever seen them and prayed over us. Mom took me to another bible study. Priest was knocking out people by putting his hand in their face like the force. He put his hand over their heads and they started speaking in tongues, or whatever the hell language they were speaking in, they didn't know it beforehand.
theson said:Why not? There are lots of things in the universe that humans don't understand yet. And there are lots of things that are physically possible, but are not plausibly achievable. Time travel, for instance, is physically possible but it would require more energy than we could possibly generate.
"Creation" could very well have come from nothing -- maybe you don't understand how that could be. Not to mention the big bang is not "nothing".
Anyway, if God exists then how can he be a "good" God if he makes people suffer? If he created people to be born only to experience loneliness and torment? A god like that is not worth worshipping.

ItheIthe said:People choose to suffer by disobeying God's words. People love to throw around the example of starving kids in Africa. Yet Jesus taught us "sell your possessions to the poorn and you wiwll have treasure in Heaven" (Matthew 19:21). It is by disobeying commands like this that some of us are wealthy while others suffer.

theson said:I was born ugly before I ever had a chance to make a choice to disobey and commandments, and I used to always give to the poor until I realized that homeless people were just taking advantage of me because I look like a sucker who is dumb enough to give them drug money. You think I am greedy? You think I am a bad person? Fuck you. I don't care about money. I don't care about material shit. It's the popular beautiful people that seem to care the most about the latest gadgets and trendy clothes. They are the only people who have the luxury to enjoy those things. I'd give all my money away to charity if I could be guaranteed a NORMAL LIFE. Everyone gets a girls, everyone has sex, everyone gets a family, everyone has kids. But I get NOTHING. Even disgusting fucking criminals who rape and murder people have better lives than me. It must be because they follow god's will, right?

That's a reasonable statement, seeing most of the worlds atrocities still happening in front of our very eyes.theson said:Why not?

theson said:Didn't listen to the aging faggot's speech about muh atheism but I'll respond to your post. If god is so good, why doesn't he do any good? Oh, he doesn't intervene? Then what kind of a god is he and why is he worthy of worship? God could fix my life and it would be infinitely easy for him to do so. Instead, Chad is going to heaven after committing every possible sin while I get to die alone after years of suffering. Great universe you designed there, fella.

theson said:Did you ever stop to consider that there doesn't need to be a reason? Purpose is a made up human notion. That's also how religious thinking emerges. It's because our brains have evolved to perceive purpose in our surroundings. It's why humans have worshiped the sun, performed human sacrifices due to poor harvests... lots of examples of these behaviors. The sky isn't angry; it's only thunder.
There's no purpose. No reason why anything exists. It just does, and you're unlucky enough to experience it.
