I find it amazing to ask a theist why he began believing in God.
So Blocko, why did you begin believing?

Because his parents told him to.
HURR.

[Proog]

Born into it.
Not brainwashed, but understanding.

I've heard too much, it all just makes sense and people often want something to believe in to fulfill their life.

I think all religion sucks but I give some points for Jewish people.

I just grew up believing, I felt that al the science didn't make much sense. I followed god because of my parents. I was little, so I didn't know much. I found church boring. Now I believe because in my ways it makes sense. I find church a joy to go to now that I learned more about this.

I was born into Baptism, yet here I am, being agnostic.
I'm not just atheist because I also find Darwinism and the Big Bang ridiculous.

For all you ninnies who think "IF GOD EXISTS WHY WOULD HE LET ALL THIS BAD HAPPEN!"
he doesn't do it, he just lets the devil do it.

Let's look at Job, he was a wealthy righteous man. Satan said that Job was only faithful because he was rewarded for praising God.

Then God let stuff hit the fan for Job. He was bankrupt, without family, and on the brink of death. Job was being tested, and he was faithful for the entire stuffstorm.

So he was cured of diseases, showered in wealth and was back on top.
TL;DR, God:1 Satan:0 Bad stuff is a test of faith.

My two and a half cents on a common argument for why God isn't real.

so if i was your father and i let someone rape you because i had a bet going, would i still be a good father? let me save you the trouble, no, i would be an starfish.

My point exactly.  For some reason, kids in my biblecigarette school found out I'm atheist, and ask me why I'm atheist.  I retort with, "It would too long to explain, so instead I'll ask you.  Why are you a catholic?"

-Snip-

I used to believe too.  Then I realized that I didn't actually believe, only that I was told to believe.  And I listened, for a while.

Kid, you have to be loving kidding me.  Please, please, please tell me that you do believe in evolution.

You find the evolutionary theory ridiculous?

I'm speechless.  Honestly.  How do you think we share 99% of our DNA with primates?

When i was younger I was ok with it and it seemed simple to me, be good go to heaven, be bad go to hell. Why can't religon be simple like that?

This stuff cannot be real. No one is this oblivious. No loving way. This is a joke right?

Power and control. Hell is a flawed ideology anyway.

When it comes to talking about religion on the internet, the levels rise to insanity.

[DrenDran]

Christianity is wrong and god doesn't exist.
You can't delete my reply or prove me wrong.

Honestly, I respect everyone's beliefs if they can explain why they believe.

I can't accept the blatant denial of facts, though.

[Night Fox]

Please, please, please tell me that you do believe in evolution.

First off, it's impossible to not believe in evolution.
It is actively occurring in modern time.
Second, Darwinism is ridiculous.

I'm speechless.  Honestly.  How do you think we share 99% of our DNA with primates?

The same way I find the land bridge theory ridiculous.

because man created religion to have people follow their false pretenses of good and avoid their false pretenses of bad. this is why the bible contradicts itself in some areas, people agreed and disagreed on different things, and they wrote different things. those things were put into the bible and they stayed there until this very day. either way, religion is just an other ploy to control his fellow man.
