If there were no God /Gods we would all just be human beings.

Which is all we are.

So you admit there IS a God, eh?

Good job MJ....that's half the battle my friend.

That's what you got out of that?

If there were no god/gods (which there isn't ) then we would all just be human beings (which we are)

So therefore there is no god/gods.

Hope that helps.

So if there are no atheists then that means there is no god. So why are you trying to convert atheists when doing so destroys god?

Now you clarify?
After your Freudian slip?

How telling.

Ya gotta love that, anyone who doesn't believe and follow the bible is a fool according to the religious right here....I guess the majority of the world are fools....we should all be like you, BD, and AssFault.....why ?.....you represent Christianity terribly

Francis Frangipane once said:
When we are baptized in the criticism of man
It inoculates us from the praise of man
So that we die to the control of man

CONTROL (Charismatic witchcraft) has three distinct dimensions:
MANIPULATION - which tries to trick you into something
INTIMIDATION - which tries to scare you into something
DOMINATION - which attempts to force you into something

Having the first statement true does not automatically make the second one true.
To see the logic of my statement substitution works

If there were no god then there would be no atheists
If there were no dogs there would be no Beagles

If there were no atheists there is no god
If there were no Beagles there would be no dogs.

To have atheists who don't believe in God requires a God for them to not believe in.
To have a God does not require that there be atheists to not believe in God.

Because there is a God, we are human beings, not "just human beings" but HUMAN BEINGS There is a conceptual difference.

Could we get back to the point, if we can call it that, of the thread.
The fact is that nobody who doesn't study the Bible gives it a thought until some paranoid extremist Christian shoves it in our faces.
Why would anyone have concern for a book that has no bearing on our lives?

"Nobody who doesn't"?

Tell us, O Great Oracle of what is and what isn't, why is your opinion so special? Change the pronoun "our" to "my", and your opinion would be valid.

It should be noted the Bible is the most read book on earth and has sold 3.9 billion copies over the last 50 years, outselling by four times the second most read book. Obviously the Bible has had "a bearing" on the lives of billions, and has for thousands of years. If the Bible means nothing to you, so what? That's your choice.

I'm not "shoving" anything in your face.

You are the one, who what you say others are doing to you, that is actually doing it to yourself by being here.
I don't go to gay bars or mosques because I don't want to be at either place...ever!

If you do not like the subject matter....then don't subject yourself to it.
It ain't rocket science jeloon.

Most people are good people, it has little to do with religion.

The only problem is being a good person won't get you to heaven.

My statement reads " just BE human beings "

Seems rather straightforward.
