Does God Exist? (Part 2)

1)No, Atheism doesn't say that ""EVERYTHING IS AN ACCIDENT"", this is a false way to look at the evolution theory. Think of it like this " why does the fish have gills? So they can breathe under-water. Animals evolve through time into better, more sophisticated creatures. You can even see that today " the human mind has evolved since the medieval times, for example. We are able to solve harder math problems, we are able to think about better solutions to problems, humanity is getting smarter. That"s a very small example of an evolutionary process. Now think about what happens over 1 million years, instead of the example"s ~1000 years. 2)Yes, technically yes. But" it"s like saying music is just a bunch of chords together " of course it is " but with that music can make us feel different feelings, we can get emotional just by hearing a single song, music sometimes makes us feel better, sometimes it makes us cry. I would like you to explain why Christianity presents a better point of view. For the simple minds, who don"t bother to ask questions, it all makes sense, but when you look at the Christian afterlife belief, you can end up asking the same questions, for example: *According to Christianity when we die God judges us to heaven or hell. By actions? If he judges by our actions, he can send good people to hell, because there are some people who do bad things according to Christianity, but as a result of poverty, lack of education, and more. So that doesn't make sense. And if judges by whether the persons is purely good or purely bad, then God is actually judging a person by the personality that according to religion, is created by God. So it is logically incorrect for God to judge his very own creation. *In afterlife, according to Christianity, are we to continue living, with our own personality, in heaven/hell? According to that, then we would still make mistakes, and still ""sin"" etc. I think you can agree it is human to make mistakes. If we will still make mistakes in heaven, then our lives wouldn't be perfect there, so it will be just like this life? And can God judge a person in heaven? What is heaven? Is it the same for everybody? *Why did God create men? Christianity doesn"t give an answer to that. Are we like toys to God? Is he looking for company? I can't see a good reason which isn't selfish for God to create humanity, and God can't be selfish, right? *Is hell the same for everyone? Is an atheist man who had a sexual relationship with his girlfriend before marriage supposed to suffer in hell just like a person who is a murderer and a rapist? 3) Well, let me tell you something: Before the early 17th century, it was believed that the earth is in the middle of the world. When real scientists started to appear, they discovered and proved it is untrue. It was extremely hard for the people of that time to accept that theory, because it is also very much philosophical. It means that we are not the center of the world. The earth is not special, our solar system is not special, and that there"s nothing in the universe that is. It was actually, so hard, to accept, that the church of that time put Galileo"s book about that theory in the "forbidden books collection" and he was judged for heresy and sentenced for life arrest. (Hope I got it right " google translate) You are looking at it the wrong way. Again, like I said in the debate, Christianity provides a simpler, easier answers. The fact that it"s hard to accept doesn"t make it less true. Ludwig Wittgenstein, a philosopher, once said: ""the purpose of life is a life with purpose."" The question of the purpose of life is something very personal, for example, one man can want to make a mark in the human history, and for him that"s the purpose of life. One man can love his family very much, and for him his family is his purpose of life. Of course it doesn't have to be just one thing. I, for example, love traveling, my family, my dogs, I love art and design, and politics" all these are just a part of my life"s purpose. All these are just a part of my life"s purpose. You're right that according to science nothing happens when we die, and we just stop living, period, but" I think that can even encourage people to do valuable things in their life, not because they will be rewarded in the afterlife, but because they won't have a second chance to do it. And you know what, if living forever means so much to you, science is the place to be ;) Some scientists are working on projects that will make our lives longer and better, I think that"s a better approach than believing in God and hoping that heaven exists for your life to have meaning. I hope you got my point. 4)Well, there are two videos I attached that I think can answer your question. And also " the bible and the holy testaments don"t always teach GOOD morals, and I think you can agree with that. I think I gave you some examples in the debate last week. I have some questions to you too: "How did you come to a conclusion that God is real? That Christianity is the right religion? In what age exactly? Were there other people involved in your process?" "In the debate you stated that we have limited logic/mind, something like that I think, how does that come together, if you said that you became a Christian because it made sense to you? How does that go together? "Do you accept ALL aspects of Christianity? Is there something that you DON'T agree with? From your first question, I realized that you didn't study evolution, and you don't understand it. I want to recommend you to open up "Evolution" and "Natural Selection" on Wikipedia, and read a little about it. There are also some very helpful YouTube videos about that. If you'd like, you can recommend me some reading material about Christianity that will be helpful for me to understand your point of view. And I hope it's not too personal, but how old are you?
