believing in God in one thing... but following God is another thing, remember even satan worshipped God and he can still go against God.

just my thought... peace !!

This is how some Catholic would reply:

Wind = you do feel it dont you? Same as God, you feel he/she is around you/us.

To see is to believe? Do you believe that you have a brain? Or do you need to see it before you believe? I bet you believed that you do have a brain indeed, even before you see it. Or, have you seen it yet?

Even I, have questions about God's existance. But this stamement, "To see is to believe" is just not a valid arguement.IMHO

teka lang ha..last week sinabi ito ng psychology prof. ko sa class namen..


***Real-Educated People Knows How :

1. To Live
2. To Love
3. To Hope
4. To Pray
5. Not To Be Afraid To Die


Questions : eh pano na ung mga atheist? pano na kame? na hindi nagdarasal..? How about to those who are in a communist country?

di naman siguro ako nagkukulang sa education..morals..di naman siguro... pano ba to?

i think there would be no difference at all for as long as we believe on what is true and what is right on every thing that we do...

kiper, wag kang maniwala dun. Ask him/her if there's a scientific proof about his/her claim. Afterall, Psychologist are people who just dont have any other thing to do in their life but to study somebody else's life. Then, they gave themselves a real nice title, PSYCHOLOGIST. (okay, that was a joke, you can laugh now...hehe)

Tell you prof. this:

Gates was interviewed November 1995 on PBS by David Frost. Below is the transcript with minor edits.

Frost: Do you believe in the Sermon on the Mount?

Gates: I don't. I'm not somebody who goes to church on a regular basis. The specific elements of Christianity are not something I'm a huge believer in. There's a lot of merit in the moral aspects of religion. I think it can have a very very positive impact.

Frost: I sometimes say to people, do you believe there is a god, or do you know there is a god? And, you'd say you don't know?

Gates: In terms of doing things I take a fairly scientific approach to why things happen and how they happen. I don't know if there's a god or not, but I think religious principles are quite valid.

Gates was profiled in a January 13, 1996 TIME magazine cover story. Here are some excerpts compiled by the Drudge Report:

"Isn't there something special, perhaps even divine, about the human soul?" interviewer Walter Isaacson asks Gates "His face suddenly becomes expressionless," writes Isaacson, "his squeaky voice turns toneless, and he folds his arms across his belly and vigorously rocks back and forth in a mannerism that has become so mimicked at MICROSOFT that a meeting there can resemble a round table of ecstatic rabbis."

"I don't have any evidence on that," answers Gates. "I don't have any evidence of that."

He later states, "Just in terms of allocation of time resources, religion is not very efficient. There's a lot more I could be doing on a Sunday morning."

If atheist doest fit the category of a so called REAL EDUCATED person, so be it. Look who's laughing now :lol:

Aray kopo...akopoay isang aspiring psychologist....hruhruhrurhuhru....

anyway...sige...ang ganda naman ng usapan eh...kaya oklang MEJO ang OT...ang sarapniyo talagang kausap...just keep your cool...ako din....herhehrehr..mainitin ako sa gantong topic.

naisip ko lang..if i am an aethiest....parang...hollow ang buhay ko...parang..walang direction...

oo nga..gumagawa nga ako ng mabuti...pero para kanino?para saan?you do those good things kasi..may REASON.kung walang reason...HOLLOW na talaga....

you do good things because you LOVE.you help the poor, your friends, because you love them....you have this reason (LOVE) thats why you do these things.....

[kiper]

you do good..

for urself..for ur parents..for ur gf/bf..siblings..etc..

diba ganun naman?

if ur a teacher..for ur students..

if ur a priest..for ur followers..

if ur a gov't official..for ur people..


baket ka naman mawawalan ng direksyon?

saka hindi naman dahil wala kang religion wala ka nang pupuntahan.. enjoy ur life..

ganito..if u enjoyed ur life sa masamang paraan..pagtanda mo hindi ka rin matutuwa sa mga pinag gagawa mo..maraming ganito. pero pag na enjoy mo ang sarili mo sa mabuting paraan..pagtulong sa kapwa..pag gawa ng mabuti..etc.. mamatay ka naman siguro nang masaya..at hindi natatakot.

it's a matter of faith. it' not about whether there is a God or not.

[Karding]

GlennSter, hahaha. Buti di mo ako minura :lol: Pero honestly, Im such a big critic sa mga Psychologist (specially the old and dead psychologists) lalo na si Freud :mad: . I might get my PhD (if ever, matagal paaaaaaa!) in Psyhology (Behavior Analysis).

Sent you a PM GlennSter. **apologizing** hehehe

BTTT:

Its just a matter of faith, good on mantoy

kiper, if you're an atheist (and assuming that you're correct, there is no God, there is no life after death and our souls disappear into nothingness after we die), why do anything good at all? Why help the poor? Why love your family or friends? Why be kind to others? We'll all have the same fate after we die anyway (both good and bad people).

If I we're an atheist, I'd probably go on robbing people, raping women and cheating other people out of what's rightfully theirs since good and bad people will have the same fate (my conscience may bother me but just like my soul, it will disappear into nothingness when I die anyway).

But this is not the case. God-fearing (and practicing) Christian ako. :D I do good because I feel the need to proclaim the Good News to others. I do good not for my own sake but so that others may see Christ living in me. Personally, that would be the difference in my life if I didn't believe that God is alive.

For those who believe in God, its hard to explain why there is Suffering.

For those who dont, they have to explain the existence of everything.
