I rember when God did a couple movies back in the early eighties . I also remeber saying....DAMN !!... god looks really old , And then thinking to myself God looks an awfull lot like George Burns .I think John Denver was in the movie with God as well , And this would explain why God crashed John Denvers plane . And does any body rember when his son Jesus JONES CHRIST put out that single Right here right now ...or something like that back in the early 90's . And am I the only one who sees that despite Jesus being nailed to the cross he still managed to stay in shape , and keep a great set of Abs ...just take a look at some of those photos of him on the cross ....JESUS was ripped .

God is the best explanation of how we got here. Evolutionists will object: Where did He come from? From nothing? Nothing can come from nothing, and nothing could have existed forever! So there can't be a God!
Ok... Where do YOU say we came from? Evolved from lower life forms. Where did they come from? From even lower life forms. Where did THEY come from? From primordial goo, into which a meteorite fell, bringing the chemicals needed for life. Some of them formed into amino acids and evolution started. Where did the soup, the meteorite, the chemicals, etc. come from? From the mass that existed prior to the Big Bang. Where did that mass come from? Er.....Um.... Yeah, that's what I thought. Maybe I can't explain where God came from, but neither can a darwinist explain the origins of life. At least I have Someone telling me that He did it.

Well I find it funny that religious people think the need for a superior being to be needed for the creation of human existence , But with that line of thinking there would have needed to be a being superior to god in order for God to have been created .

You missed the point entirely. Please go back and re-read.

Well I don't think I missed much , As I believe your post was to insinuate that because evolutionist can't prove an exact start of existence that in the same respect one can not prove the existence or lack of existence in gods case . But that's my point when it comes to religion , as religion always has god as the CREATOR of the universe , But if something has to precede something in order to give creation to it then god can't be the supreme being of creation , as he must have been preceded by a creator that is superior to himself , which would mean he isn't the creator of the universe or supreme . But I don't pretend to have definite answers to any of these questions like the religious and evolutionists pretend to , as how can anyone give an exact answer to these questions , as I believe these answers are beyond anyone .

Oh my GOD.... that was a TERRIBLE movie . You would think GOD could have picked a better supporting cast to make a movie with , And yes I'm glad GOD 86 ed John Denver .

Christian
I am also a christian,
i grew up in a christian home as a pastor for a father. I did not reamin a christain long. I went through many years of partying and doubt. I always find it a little funny when people make the suggestion that God does not like for people to question him or be doubtful. I have done just that for many years and although all my questions were not answered the major questions were. Faith is important in your relationship, yet if you truly want to know if God exists and if you truly want to know if Jesus is the Son of God then try it out. What is it going to hurt to try. If you feel nothing or nothing in your life changes then you have lost nothing. But if you dont and he does exist then you have lost everything. Question God to make himself real to you

Maybe I can't explain where God came from, but neither can a darwinist explain the origins of life. At least I have Someone telling me that He did it. No one can explain where God came from All we know is "in the beginning Was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.He was in the beginning with God. All things were made trough Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness,AND THE DARKNESS DID NOT COMPREHEND IT." (John1:1-5) We are mere humans and cannot Begin to imagine the things pertaining to God's existence. I don't know all the answers, all I can do is ask God when I get to Heaven. I have been writing on another part of the board I am new here and have enjoyed ya"ll very much. Thank-you for ya"ll opinion and I hope I did not step on any-body's toe's. I'll will post on the other part of the board."Every thing else part" I cannot carry on 2 conversations. Too much for my little brain. This debate is going on in 2 different places on this board I'll be at the other. Thanks again.
