Forum:Religious person gives reason to believe

< Index | Religious discussion

I was on yahoo answers looking at a person asking "Give me good reasons why god is real".

One person said this:

i was 9 and i got in a car accident...i thought i was going to die...i was in the hospital and i was laying in the bed thinking about my broken leg and how bad things were going to be. i closed my eyes and then i fell asleep. a couple hours later or i dont even know...doctors came in telling my mom that i was loosing to much blood...or had lost to much blood from the accident. I thought i wasnt going to make it. the doctos told my mom i wasnt going to make it and i had already lost to much blood. i had so much faith in God and i knew he was going to help me through that time. Im alive now...it was a mirical. i had so much faith and love in my God and Jesus Christ, and here I am today sharing my story.

You dont need to believe in God...alot of people dont...but when you think about it...would you rather want to believe in the big bang and science...or something pretty like God and flowers and doves?

God is here with us and will always be with me. I still feel him in my heart...i pray to him everynight before i go to sleep...i know he will be with me forever and always...just like he was with me the day i almost died (:

I'd like to ask this idiot a couple questions:

1. You thank god for saving your life through a miracle. How about thanking your doctor? The person who...um...gave you medical attention???

2. Your "miracle" is proof that god exists, but wouldn't it be more of a miracle if world hunger, cancer, AIDS, etc. ceased to exist this very instant? There's no conceivable reason why an innocent person should be afflicted with those things. "God" supposedly is omnipotent, so him doing all he can within his power to bring happiness is considered moral. He's obviously not doing that, but your doctor is doing everything in their power to help people—so your doctor is more moral than God. Funny thing is...the bible condemns everyone but God as a sinner. Funny.

3. "would you rather want to believe in the big bang and science...or something pretty like God and flowers and doves?" This is what happens when people aren't educated. They say stupid things like this. *facepalms* ^{— Unsigned, by: 69.120.181.114 / talk / contribs}

Why are you saying all this here instead of at Yahoo Answers where the discussion took place? Wẽãšẽĩõĩď^{Methinks it is a Weasel} 23:24, 10 May 2014 (UTC)

Y!A people are not the brightest nor the most logical of people. Do not attempt to apply logic to their actions. Do not negotiate with them. Do not make eye contact. Just nod, smile and back away slowly. --|₹Λ¥$€₦₦ ^{The neural network broke the phase space!? REVERSE THE TANGENT GRAPH!!!} 23:31, 10 May 2014 (UTC)
