Wow, reincarnation would involve souls (What YOU are) wouldn't it? Everything doesn't have to have a cause (About God Being created).. anything with a beginning needs a cause. God never began, he was always there.

On the flip-side, God might not be an infinite, but a zero, meaning he doesent exist and the universe came from nothingness.
Why are we all jumping to conclusions?
If one way does not exist, that doesn't mean your way is correct. Snake)Ling, I completely disagree with your answer.
I can't imagine having a new life if you die. >.> It'd...be weird.
I believe that people are suicidal are looking at things the wrong way. They look at life and say "what is the point?" when they should be looking at death and saying it. Your going to die someday so you know you will experience it but if you kill yourself now then you will never experience all of life.
I realise that religion seems to be complete bs, and my strongest suggestion about after death is an endless sleep. You can dream, think, any and all things. Next is the reincarnation, which seems very...unlikly, but less so than heaven and hell.
After thinking of this, i wonder, "What do I live for?", so I think of a sentence from gundam wing. "Maybe my life has no value anymore, but I have to keep on living, because I have a home to go back to." Also, I want to love, skip sex, I just want to feel like its ganna last forever.
I fear nor pain nor death, I fear killing my killer however.
I agree that life is pointless since we are going to die, yet i am not suicidal.
My philosophy is that why not make the best of it while we are here?
Also think about this:
I am not religious but that does not mean i am not spiritual.
To me everyone has 3 parts: Body,Mind, and Soul
You can function without one, just not well.
no body = ghost
no mind = coma
no soul = hollow shell
Forgive me if this seems very odd, I'm listening to the MOST TRIPPY MUSIC EVER.

How come the human race MUST be the most intellegent and closest to perfect race and anything else must be impossible? If something is lower than you, you help and support it, but when it comes to your level, you think of it as a rival. In my opinion, Chritianity is the most religion with proof. Others, you know can't be, so you don't have to worry about it, and you can support it all you want.
So a book is undeniable proof, eh?
So a book is never right?
Did I say that?
A book can be right, it's just not reliable.
See Rexy's Avatar.
It could be the Harry Potter of it's time, but to a much higher degree where people began to worship it.
So, the Bible is the only exception... Notice the Bible is NOT in the fiction section either? So, is every book store unreliable?
I said 'could be' you idiot!
Read!
Sorry for the flam, the point has to be got across...

actually judiaism has the most proof. Christianity just follows in our footsteps since Jesus WAS jewish.
I will only not believe in God if there is a 0% chance. Like the millions of smokers who say "I can't get cancer, it can't happen to me" and it does. Even if small chance...
Edit: Actually, even if 0% chance, I will NEVER stop believing in God.
Additon: AWW CRAP, CHEEZE IS HERE! GET READY FOR IT!!!
Then it's your beleif, I won't argue with it. It's just that when the masses beleive the same religion, it's a bad thing.
Yeah, obviously, if millions of book stores put harry potter in the non-fictional section, that must mean it's true!
Luckily, I moved one of the bibles into the fictional section. So you know, at least one of them agrees with me.

neiji... so your saying if we come to find out that we were created by... lets say aliens as an experiment (taking from SC storyline of how toss were made) then you would not stop believing in god? Thats what I call a sore loser who just doesn't give up when its lost.

w00t w00t a small step towards moving them all there!
Yeah, you are way too steadfast on your beleifs.
EDIT: I used that work wrong, didn't I?
Yeah, but did it ever happen? Keyword there is "If"
Likewise, what IF god didn't create us?!

Or what IF god did!

(NOTE THE USE OF "IF"s)
Exactly, "if".

Yes, but it could be true...
