Depends what the requirements are.

You are context-shrinking everything I say. Just because I don't believe or question certain parts of the Bible does not mean I am bashing the religion. Yes. Yes there is. Which one is more of a theory? Which one can be studied easier? I'm not even talking about religion or God at this point...

This is heavily generalized compared to what the actual facts are. Some parts of the Bible make perfect sense, some of it doesn't fit the real world in at all. The only person that knows how God truly helps people would be God himself, assuming he's real. I don't believe in evolution because...

Not what that meant. This is turning into false cherry picking now. ???????????? Didn't you just say that "God has no plan for me" and that "I was on my own"? Well, you said God -> eternal life, evolution -> destruction, so... Sorry, nope. That line doesn't work like you think. Stuff like...

The two do not need to be mutually exclusive. At least, for some people, they aren't. There is no concrete proof of God, and plenty of people here say there's no proof for evolution, which in a sense, is objectively wrong (in the context of how it works, not specifically about how the world was...

Then why the sweet hell did he create people? Just to worship him and boost his ego?

General view: "If you're good, you go to heaven. Most likely." Christian view (for some): "If you're good and follow these very specific Christian things (no other religion, just this one) then you possibly... maybe... might get into heaven." There were some good bits of advice here and there...

I could only imagine how many times "lake of fire" is heard and said in Christianity. A few things I brought up were glossed over and not really answered, but I don't know if that would matter. I can feel myself imploding, and my permanent solutions I have in my head may or may not help me...

Yes, I believe my are ancestors in one way or another. Telling me that God created the universe is not the most ridiculous thing I've heard. I could actually get behind theistic evolution, maybe. But telling me the Earth is 6000-10000 years old and that we were created from Adam and Eve is not...

So countless years of DNA tests and science: not proof. 2000-year-old books that says something: trust me bro, that's proof. That last question is really confusing me. What does that have to do with anything? Evolution is not perfect, but I can't fathom how anyone can use the bible like a...

Then why does science give an excruciatingly overwhelming amount of evidence proving we are descended from apes?

I'm not gonna sugar coat this, that's a very good point, but these are things that happened 2000 years ago. We don't have pictures, videos, etc. due to how long ago that was. All we have is not only the literature, but we must analyze literary style and use that to help us determine if something...

Ehhhhh, nah. Let's stick with anti-atheist for now: an atheist that wants to be wrong, but doesn't really see the proof. You're jumping too far ahead here. Just because I believe Jesus existed doesn't automatically make me a Christian. My belief ends at the whole "rose from the dead" thing...

I don't know if I used this term here before, but the term anti-atheist would fit better for me. I don't know how many of my earlier posts you've seen, but I have mentioned that I do believe Jesus, his disciples and all of his trials existed/happened. My belief in God is not 0%, but still a...

Oh don't worry, that's already happened. And I don't mean that in the form of bashing anyone's beliefs, and I don't think the entire Bible is necessarily that bad, or even wrong. But that was a book written by people, not God himself. I don't doubt that many mentioned events in that book...

It accomplishes me making a point. People telling me to try and understand Jesus more is fine, and things were starting pretty strong, but when I see stuff like "either jesus or lake of fire", that's when I start rolling my eyes. You are not the first person to hit with me the "lake of fire"...

No dude, no no no. That's not what I'm saying. When I talk about digging in those words, I meant that to be infinitely more negative and insulting to that statement you made. You guys want me to understand Jesus, fine. You guys want me to "go with god", that's a bit difficult seeing as there's...

I don't think there are enough English words in existence I could use to dig into these words right here...

Okay, I'm clearly missing something here. So I can get heaven, hell, and this third choice where my soul becomes nothing? I'm not an atheist becomes it's the most fun thing ever, I'm an atheist (more of an anti-atheist) because that's how the logic comes together. That other forum temporarily...

Hmmm, really? I can't wait to argue that at the third quote. It was said by someone in this community, in this very thread. Theeeeere it is, there's that "lake of fire" thing you Christians love to use so much. I knew that was coming up sooner or later. I'd give anything for bad language to be...
