I have 100% faith in what i believe. I also believe it is right. As for the second question, i would have to explore and research on more beliefs if i were to give them any more then 50% percent chance. I am not meaning that all other religons are wrong and mine is the only way. So dont judge me on that.
And to RAGNAROK, Noone is perfect, everyone sins. All i mean is that Jesus will forgive all your sins if you just ask him. I'm not saying that christians and religous people cannot sin. And everyone can have their sins forgiven, they just have to ask.

but, if god is the one true god, than that means everyone is wrong? at least no one is 100% correct...
I believe, you have 100% faith, that's what faith is, if it isn't complete it isn't faith.
but my only complete faith is that there is no compltely infalible belief in this world, there is nothing perfect in this or the next world, and no one knows of anything perfect if there is

I know you guys believe in God and all, that is cool...I don't care really. I mean he doesn't exsist or anything, but if it gets you through you day, fine.

And Jesus could have been real, I mean even if he was, there is no proof he was God's son. Hell he could have been a miricle con artist. A person who fakes miricles for people to get money, goods, food, etc. And maybe that is why he was killed, cause they caught him. And just maybe people turned his con artistry around over time when they wrote the bible 100 years later, cause the people needed something to believe in cause of the hard times.

That could be true and the bible could be true. Now both can't be true, but I'll tell you what, I would believe my story before the bible story. Why? Cause I could relate to that story. You just can't relate to spirits flying and God appearing making commandments. I mean no one even went with him, he could have just done those himself....and passed them on to be known in history.

Cause that is what we strive for in life, to live on in history. Immortality if you need a word to associate with it.

That is all.

And its the sane today. You see how you and many others here dont believe? Well its the same back then. Not every one believed so therefore some people were just as bad as before. No one is perfect so no matter what this world will always be filled with sin

Speeve-o-matic:
to me your post sounded incredibly arrogant.
Why do you think just because ppl post their opinion on a philosohpy-topic that they have not read up some stuff before? I mean if you have nothing else to add then "your discussion is so infantile and tabloid-style" then just don't.
But if you have an opinion of your own then post it. .. just don't see the point in saying "hi, I am so much more educated than you guys, bye"

I did not choose to live by the laws of christianity so why should i be judged after them?

[Speve-o-matic]

I agree, looking back it did come off arrogantly, I won't deny that. Sorry about that Nex, and whoever felt 'violated'. It was not my intention as I said before. I just felt compelled to come in at a different angle.

duun worry speve, no problem posed.

hey I have this theory about insults.
basically when somone insults you purpousfully they are actually trying to impose controll over you, but it is you who give them that controll by responding. however if you are insulted by somone's plain reaction you just gave them controll over you without them trying, anyways what I'm trying to say, it's never your fault that somone is insulted, and if somone insults you, well. it's your choice if it affects you or not
