None of it exists. Period.
Religion is the biggest farce in human history, and the cause of nearly every major conflict, whether it was brought up or not.
I want to believe, truly. I will absolutely admit there were occasions where I let myself believe that I felt something with family at church.I disagree with the statement that none of it exists. I completely believe that there is a supreme being but I do agree that the existence of organized religion has caused too many wars and misery.

I have also seen first hand what religion causes because of slight differences. There are certain smells that one can never forget. Burnt, rotting flesh is one.
Fair enough. I have yet to experience something that can't be explained*. Those that have, is of my opinion sheer luck, but they look for a reason it happened.I have smelt that smell and understand completely. I just can’t look into the sky or explain certain other things that I’ve experienced and deny that there is a supreme being.

*I lied. There is something. I've lost as many if not more, back home than over there. What's God's answer for that?

Where in the Bible did God admit to creating evil? The Bible tells us that God allows free will, even with the angels. Evil comes from turning away from God, so I don’t know that it means He created it. I think lots of people like to blame God for everything wrong in their lives instead of thanking Him for everything good in their lives.The part that may irk me the most is how, Christians for example, pick and choose parts of the bible that fit their narrative and run with it and completely ignore others.
If the bible is real then didn’t the big guy admit to creating peace and making evil?
If he is real he is absolutely not some grand and loving god.
Do you believe in the supernatural?The Bible was written by men, edited by men wanting to justify their station and denied to the populace by men who didn’t want their authority challenged.
Do you really believe that if Jes^s said ”to heck with Caesar, keep your money” it would have made it into the Bible?
I try to love and serve the Lord and will accept whatever judgement He gives me. I try to treat people good and ask for the same in return, although that's extremely tough sometimes in this forum. I'm as flawed as anyone else, but there's some in this forum that really need hard lessons on treating people well.Trying to avoid hell? Or are you in my camp.
Love and serve G-d to the best of your ability and accept H-s judgement, whatever it may be?
If you really want to find out who God is, study the resurrection of Jesus Christ!I want to believe, truly. I will absolutely admit there were occasions where I let myself believe that I felt something with family at church.
