Do you believe in God? (7 Viewers)

[boris]

its both, the military power being run by extremists Muslims.
And I've never doubted that God helps us

but what if the muslims want god to help them too
wont they destroy you

 

[Garygaz]

did you even read the thread or are you just making the quintessential big boy post?

 

[horsefreak]

Did you watch the funeral ?
i'll assume no.
Imagine your friend, son, daughter, mother etc run over by a tank.
Now a normal person, in there sane mind would probably seek revenge of some sort.
having the patience to bear the pain is Help From God.
having respect not the burn the Egyptian flag, is Help from God.

You dont believe in God? Why?
besides the reason that everyone says "he doesnt exist"

 

[horsefreak]

if you look at it from a two sided perspective then yes.
But i believe in my "God," again i will say i am not an expert.
But what i know is faith is the core element of religion, and i cant explain that too you .

we went over this about 2 pages ago, because there is not a shred of evidence proving he does. all the questions of creation and the possibilities of creation are being answered with science and without a god.

yeah i saw some of it on sbs news and aljazeera last night

i think obviously some of the old elements of the Egyptian army that were pretty trigger happy last time are still at it, plus now with the added incentive of harassing the christians

In all honestly, i dont understand what you said " think obviously some of the old elements of the Egyptian army that were pretty trigger happy last time are still at it."

 

[boris]

i dont believe in god because my of my faith

nah its because the lack of evidence of his existence means it seems highly illogical to me to believe he exists. pretty simple

not all of the Egyptian army is ideologically opposed to killing demonstrators, as was shown earlier in the year

and clearly those people are still in the army

and being muslims, are taking this as an excuse to kill christians

Well, actually Im no scholar in Christianity .
And i have HSC, however during my holidays i will attempt to answer your questions.
And if your interested, my church hold apologetic meetings, maybe you could come along ?

I went to Egypt 3 years ago.
To visit all my family. The poverty, the lack of housing, no social welfare really cripples a family.
People will do anything to get money, and unfortunately that is and was the case during the revolution at the beginning of the year, and this week.
The military and government in Egypt sabotage people.

yes, and some of the Muslims are extremtists that believe it is a "honor" to kill someone.

only if i get to take you out for coffee or something afterwards

No.
But if you are interested, we can discuss it further.

 

[boris]

lol

 

[horsefreak]

lol

I fail to see the humor there.

 

[boris]

you're right it wasnt funny

anyway i dont think going to your church would benefit me greatly. i am more interested in individual beliefs. i had enough of church during school, mass once a week and chapel every day

Well its not a service, nor a mass. Its a meeting. I actually quite like it.

Well my offer still stands.
Maybe talking to more experienced people about the existence of God etc would probably be better then our discussions on BoS.

 

[Lolsmith]

Yes actually i am, Egyptian.
I didnt offend you, so out of respect you shouldnt offend me. This is an open discussion.
I said i am Coptic Orthodox, i dont see how that should become an insult.

Most of my family live in Egypt, and seeing pictures of the religious minority being "squashed"
hurts me.

Im sure any human, regardless of race or religious orientation would find this displeasing?

@boris

nope

its both, the military power being run by extremists Muslims.

helps you

by killing you

that's pretty much the only reason one would need

 

[horsefreak]

Well if thats what you choose to believe, then feel free.
But please refrain from making insensitive comments "nope."

the fact that you would approve to such violence and inhumane treatment, really reflects you as a person.
So please be aware of the comments you make.
