Oh, come on, this is how wars get started. There have been many gods venerated by humans throughout time. Whichever one you believe in, or whether you believe in any of them at all, has no bearing on my life. I would rather know why EVERY religion is based on the same basic tenets of love, humility, and compassion, yet the followers are hostile, boastful, and judgmental.

Objective Proof is sadly lacking.

Evolution based on Darwin? Darwin himself had serious doubts about his theory.
Traditional Christianity, (Catholic-protestant). Is based more on the politics of the Roman Empire, than on the bible.


yea, like we talked about, Darwin was the tip of the iceberg of evolution, the first to see and get the fundamentals down... there was a lot he couldn't explain because it is so vast of a science. 150 years later, with 10,000's of studies done different eco systems, prairies, oceans, deserts, everywhere on the planet, everything Darwin says come together is massively different ways...

I have made no claim of being either a pot or a kettle...I stated a fact which will be proven before this thread ends.

I will give you the information, and you decide for yourself.

True, In the last 150 years there has been a tremendous amount of knowledge and experiments done. The problem that troubled Darwin still remains. Where are those transitional fossils? They have never been found. The more research we do the more we find that one species cannot change into another one. A cat can have multi varieties, but it cannot change into a dog. The genes from the parents dictate what the offspring will be.

Five pages into this thread and no one has even attempted to answer the OP question "Who or what is god?"

Perhaps, as I suspect, few (if any) have a reasonable answer.


I previously gave an opinion that God might be a form of energy. Other than that about all I can do is Quote Isaiah 29:6 and Isaiah 45:9.
If we are made, then whatever understanding we have would come from the maker.

What else do you expect followers to be? Religion is not about following a religion, but the realisation of your true nature. People who fight over religion are not religious.

God is the object of worship.


And what is the reason?

Never SEEn God
Never TOUCHed God
Never HEARd God
Never SMELLed God
Never TASTEd God

Use your senses to prove what is real and mold your beliefs

We are all here because we have performed countless actions towards countless stimuli which in turn create more stimuli for others to react to therefore creating an endless world of actions and reactions. Never noticed God act or react and if he was proven to exist it wouldn't change the fact that he has been pretty darn lazy in the last umpteen trillion years, If he exists I'd want to vote him out and vote someone else in because he is utter utter sh*te

God is a figment of imagination, created by man in the absence of the knowledge we have today about our origins, which is why it is so common to find non religious people nowadays.

Where the hell are you getting your information from? Read a book. Get an education. Of course one species can change into another. Not in an instant, but over millions of years. It's called evolution. It has been extensively studied and proven.

Show me where any species has changed into another different species. There has been changes within species, but the DNA makes species reproduce after their own kind.

Yes, GOD has to be pure energy as there is no place it is not. Everything in existence is made of energy in numerous state from solid to wave of sunshine, radio,gamma on an on. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. All that can be done is to only change it's state. The entire Universe if full of energy in all states of existence

Is it so difficult to belive that this enery thinks?? We humans are packets of energy and we think!.

I won't show you anything but something I have noticed over the years that made me think this science thing is a bit more logical than this book of toilet paper.

Why do we see? Maybe to allow us to see our prey and maybe to see our predators but one thing these eyes do not see is God. Our eyes didn't just evolve overnight. There would have been a time when eyes were not needed but as time goes on prey need to get one step ahead of their predators. By evolving eyes they can improve their chances of escape. However now that the predators are going hungry they need to see where their prey has gone and thus also evolve eyes.

Why do we hear, to hear our prey, to hear our predators and although I have heard of God, I have not heard God. Again like eyes, and perhaps before eyes evolved were ears. To be able to hear and approximate the location of predators we can avoid them and by hearing our prey moving we can find them.

Touch is another one. The feeling of texture allows us to identify things. Without eyes and ears then you would likely use vibrations and knowledge of textures to understand your surroundings. Also touch allows us to determine hazards before it does significant harm. If you walked into a thorn bush the first prick would get you to retreat Instinctively with pain. Pain is a hard warning about dangers not something mysteriously created because some stupid bint called eve ate an apple from a tree. Pain allows us to keep our bodies safe, protected from sharp, hot or cold objects etc. When someone makes you jump this is your nervous system over reacting to stimilu to trigger the brain to prepare for danger but then you realise it is your mate fooling around or is this really gods doing?

Taste is essential. Without taste you might forget to eat and thus forget to survive another day to preach about some being you have never seen. Taste also tells your mind what things you put in your mouth are safe or unsafe.

Smell is used to determine things such as predators and prey and also good food and bad food. None of our five senses were created in Gods Lab of Franksteinology. They have been crafted for millions of years in a predator/prey cycle. Just take a few hours to watch some of David Attenboroughs Planet Earth and look at how many animals have adapted to survive. Many animals have adapted to create equilibriums. In fact one of the most important underrated living species on the planet is all plant life. Just because it doesn't have a face, eyes, nose, ears, brain doesn't mean that it isn't a living thing. For without them there is no humans. Again plants have adapted such as Cacti protecting its own water and plants giving off fruit to protect the plant from being eaten but also creating fruit as a means of travelling to grow/reproduce more plants. It actually isn't rocket science, its just common sense and to hold onto the preaching of some mysterious figure that has never been seen or heard by yourself over the facts and proof that science has that can be googled all day and night long is like believing Spiderman is real but Oxygen isn't. Just because we don't see evolution happen over the course of a single day doesn't mean it doesn't happen but to carry on preaching God, someone you haven't yourself had any contact with what-so-ever is pretty pathetic. You would be far better off preaching that your best mate created the universe because people can at least prove his existence but the latter part they cannot. If anyone wishes to believe in god then their choice, personally I do not care what you believe but the next time you are seriously hurt, do not go to the hospital because that is something built from science, instead you go to the church and pray to god for your healing for all the good it will do. You will find that your body will heal itself, another gift from evolution not god, however if your body is broken beyond repair and requires medical treatment or surgery then I will let you lie on top of the altar and pray and get the entire planet to pray for you and after the prayer we will laugh our atheistic socks off as you painfully die a deluded death.
