Except science is the process of finding truths. Faith is NOT, it's exactly the opposite. As a former Catholic my faith crisis absolutely began when I started asking questions. Because I soon discovered nobody had any freaking answers. At least none that were believable, reasonable, or anyone had any evidence for. And my experience is echoed by millions of others in the atheist community.

[@joaomateuspereiramaia6463]

There is sequence of steps. Asking questions is a good thing to do, it's sth we ought to do actually, for God made us to do that. Once you have the questions, you don't need to believe there's no answers, but some people get stuck in their questions, that were put there to lead them to the answers, to the truth

[@dessiewatkins1006]

My assessment: As a child I consider myself to have 'received the good news' which main stream homogenized Christianity held together by teaching that all humanity was contributing to the physical/bodily kingdom through their spiritual hunger for God's truth. The gospel thus was God's word which is 'the good news', which is the kingdom of God which is God's Light reigning supreme in the hearts of those who love God. Thus, essentially, Earthly rulers are little more than 'slaves to the desires of the masses who perceive that the biblical reference to blessings are references to their physical satisfaction of human desires. That is the state of being which is called lost because emphasis of disobedience/obedience has come to revolve around secular authority which is Law, and not on God who has facilitated humanity's self determination to establish governance of the material realm of humanity's physical existence.

Every debate starts with respect 1st so always remember to respect your opponent and never resort to insult or implying ignorance. That tends to happen in these style debates. God always respected even those who came to attack him or try to trap him in his statements. Sometimes it’s not who you are debating that will change their minds but maybe those who see the debate notice that you handled yourself kindly and presented your views with respect. This is how I have been able to share Christ after a heated debate.

She has exchanged defending what is true, for defending ‘my faith.’ Which she views as synonymous. But they are not which we could easily show by applying this same reasoning to anyone else’s faith that conflicts with hers.

Jesus was a wandering Jewish preacher who believed the end of the world was imminent and mankind must repent to enter his kingdom which is not of this world. Luckily I decided to live an ordinary pleasurable life on my own terms and die an ordinary death - after which I will no longer exist. It's that simple.

I gave up after 16 mins. You're equating your faith in the Bible with faith in the God of the Bible. People do apply your "critical thinking skills" to your beliefs about the Bible (which you seem to worship as a replacement for God) and soon find your foundation crumbles. The kinds of challenges people face in the academic world demonstrate that your idolatry is a false religion.

Dear whoever it may concern, if you are challenging your faith, Nobody has the answer to whether god(s) exists or not. Whether you believe in god(s) or not, there is nothing wrong with your belief because we simply do not know. The only thing that we do know is that we are all here on this planet together. Be a good person to yourself and others. If someone is different from you, don't be afraid of them (different race, LGBT, poor, different beliefs, etc.). Just be a good person, let others live their life how they want to. If you look out into the world and only see turmoil, hate, greed, crime, etc. It strengthens your faith only because of fear of what's going on around you. It's the fear that blinds you from seeing reality, from the real solutions and keeps you living in your bubble because who cares what happens in this world when I will be rewarded in the next? That doesn't make you hollier. It makes you a coward. You have the power to make real change in the world, but if you're a Christian, more than likely, you'll vote for a literally conman wanna-be dictator who emboldened groups like white nationalists and who only cares about himself. Do Christians really care about what Jesus teaches? It seems that they only do what makes them FEEL good, and that is, again, fueled from fear. Jesus taught people to be loving, caring, accepting, and understanding. Today, Christians only want to punish, hate, judge, and control, which equates to just being plain evil. We could help people by voting for politicians who would raise taxes on the wealthy, support unions, Medicare for all(which would include mental health), rebuild our infrastructure, raise the minimum wage, ban foreign investors from buying houses, ban politicians from investing in stocks, get money out of politics, ban lobbyists, etc. We have the power to do exactly what Jesus taught and take care of you and your neighbors, but being ultra religious blind you from doing actually good because it keeps you in a constant state of fear and prideful of being hollier than Thou. When it comes down to it, it doesn't matter if you believe in a god(s) or not. It's the RELIGION that does the real harm. If you believe in god then you let it be. If you believe in religion you'll become brainwashed into believing whatever your superiors make you think. Then you have conflict and even Holy wars. Believe in what you want but religion, mega churches, AIG, are all human institutes that sin to control. Don't be controlled. Thank you, Fellow human

[@veritasestlux]

Dear fellow human, Christians today have a Bible that has every moral standard that we humans follow today. Unfortunately, we live in a fallen world, and that means that people, Christian or not, still sin and hate sometimes. Christians do not follow God because of a feel-good sensation, but because they know that they are serving a God who lives and reigns on Earth. We are still humans, but we know that God gives us grace and He gave us His son to die for our sins. thank you, Another fellow human

@scripturedude the Bible is highly debatable and comes down to how you want to interpret it, and that is based on how you feel. Mixing religion and the fear of a "fallen world" only strengthens your fears and blind you from seeing who you really are. Your morals come from your Bible, but ultimately, it comes down to your interpretation. They are your beliefs. Not your god's. But then you claim it is your god's beliefs, and you cement your morals and ignore everyone else who disagrees, and you don't even care because you are blinded by your pride of being hollier than Thou

Why should we? (The big bang and evolution that is)

[@travisbicklepopsicle]

​@@michaelsears6702 The Big Bang model does not explain how the observable universe first came into existence. It only describes what occurred immediately after. The Big Bang was not an explosion like a bomb detonating with a bunch of matter flying out from a central point. It was the expansion of space-time, an expansion that is still occurring today, and has been repeatedly measured. There's also the cosmic microwave background, measured, of course, which lends further support to the model. There's other data and evidence supporting the model as well. Is it 100% correct? Probably not. However, all relevant data and evidence indicates that the Universe once existed in a hot, dense state then started expanding. Biological evolution, which has absolutely nothing to do with the big bang model, is a fact of life. That's why evolution is literally the foundation of modern biology and genetics. You should accept evolution as fact because it *is* fact. Evolutionary biology is applied science, in areas such as agriculture, medicine, and many other areas that affect all of our lives. Much of modern medicine is based upon evolutionary theory. Scientific theories explain facts, and evolutionary theory is one of the most, if not *the* most, well evidenced and supported theories in all of science.

And we've never seen macroevolution happen, have we?
