I just don't understand how people think they can call themselves christians just because they believe in God. It's sad to think so many people think they are saved just because they said a scripted prayer. They don't go to church, don't read their bibles (if they even own one), and don't live their lives to glorify God at all...Why do people think

First off, My name is sarah. I am a friend of levi's. perhaps one of these days you and i will meet, if it be God's will. Secondly, We do not know where God Come's from. But that is the beauty of it, We do not know everything. We are only human, There are many things we cannot possibly comphrend. Perhaps one day if it be the will of God, We may be able to Ask God this question. But as for now i contiune to Believe such as a child, Without a reason. We do not reason to know why we exist, We just Do. I myself believe that there is a God, And that he is the Ultimate expression of love. Athesium is a false belief, First off in order to know that there is no God, you would first have to know everything. But in order to know everyone, you yourself would have to be God. Henceforth that is the first contridction. now with buddisum, Budda himself dispised statues that depicked images of those who are dead, he believed that our time on earth was what is known as karma or whatever the it's name what (suffering). and By putting statues of people who have passed on you are keeping that person held to this world henceforth keeping their suffering alive. If you have ever visited a buddist temple you will notice many statues of budda everwhere and people using incense to pray to they're dead ancestors...Everything Budda himself dispised!
God loved you enough, Even before you knew who he was, that he gave up his only Son so that you could be forgiven. I'd like to see Budda or darwin Give up they're only child for you! also, with darwin..Did you know while he was on his death bed he actually renounced everything he had stated about evolution. and that he actually stated "God is God." and with budda, there are temples which actually hold pieces of him such as a tooth,ear,ect. I'd like you to try and find pieces of Jesus...let me help you out with that one...There aren't any. Because he rose again on the third day.
If you would like to Find out more on different relgions i'm sure levi can help you seeming as he is far more knowledgeable than i am. There are also Millions of Different books on apologetics. you should pick one up one of these days, My recomendation would have to be Fast facts on false teaching written by Ron carlson & Ed decker. I really enjoy that one...

Well, First of all, we don't know were God came from because he didn't come from anything.

And one thing you should remember before you go spouting empirical evidence for things is that as I have said before: All facts are interpreted within a context or philosophy of fact. Darwin used the same method to understand evolution that you are using right now. The difference is the worldview. "Facts don't do jack." People will manipulate how they perceive things to fit their presuppositions.

Just some things to keep in mind.
