Does God exist? (William Lane Craig vs Peter Atkins debate) (29 Viewers)

[YasoR17]

Wrong. All these Abrahamic religions have poisoned your mind with lies. God can have a son or a daughter. It's his will. You can't deny it. And regardless of whether he has a son or not, Brahma created you and all living things on earth. You cannot deny it! It was written about it thousands of years ago. Why don't you believe it?

Lol. Why don't you believe it? Nobody is asking you why don't believe in any God at all. Why are you coming with these senseless questions why I don't believe in Hinduism. If it is as you say that Hindus believe in one God it is probably the same God I, Christians and Jews believe in. It's just the fact that they somehow make that one God into multiple other Gods and the worshipping of statues that I don't believe in.

Have you read the book Knowledge of Angels by Jill Paton Walsh?

No.

Contradicting a bit I think.

Contradicting a bit I think.

How exactly?

 

[Raz]

How exactly?

Well you say they believe in the same god you believe and they do it by worshiping statutes and then you say you don't believe in them. So you ether think they are worshiping the same god and you believe in him too or you think it's a different one, no middle ground I think.

Dishonest? Why you thing that way? Cos he didn't reveal everything with detail? Dishonest would be if he on purpose would try to cheat us, which we have no proof of and could not prove it anyway.

Of course it is dishonest! If god said, for example, that humans came from Adam and Eve, but scientists proved that humans evolved from other animals, isn't that being dishonest? Lying? If god, for example, said/implied that the earth is 5000 years old, but scientists proved that it's age is 4.6 billions old, isn't that being dishonest?

It's one thing to not tell us how he did it. It's a totally different thing to give us one account of events and claim authority for it, while the truth turned out to be completely different!

But hasn't it ever occurred to you that Hinduism could afterall be true? The true religion with the true gods? Ones that pre-date your gods by several years? Do you live in ignorance of this possibility?

I don't have an answer to your dishonest thing, just that I think it wasn't written by god. I lost

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

You don't have an answer because what I said is true. These gods lied to us, and we're supposed to believe them. It's a bloody scam, I tell you!

Well you have to believe it was written by god at first place to think that.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Well you have to believe it was written by god at first place to think that.

Why? Because god himself said so? Right. Very convincing reason to believe that.

Well we could go on forever like this

So how is Quaran different then? The trend is the same, something new comes in but with stuff taken from some older religion?

I just said it above that Islam recognizes the Torah and the Bible, and it also states that over a 100k prophets were sent at different time periods to different places around the world. Therefore one has to also accept that all major religions today were derived from teachings of prophets which were later evolved into something quiet different. <--- That is the Islamic point of view

Nice to have you here, Z.

I'm weak :depressed

Didn't knew that.

Well, except Hinduism, right?

 

[Zé Tahir]

Well, except Hinduism, right?

No, including Hinduism. Remember I posted something about that a couple of months ago?

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

No, including Hinduism. Remember I posted something about that a couple of months ago?

Something about Krishna, right?

 

[Zé Tahir]

Something about Krishna, right?

Yeah.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Yeah.

But doesn't it seem fishy to you that Islam claims that about the 100k prophets? I mean, it's a great way of claiming that all religions that ever existed were somehow related to Islam? It's a bold claim, and I'm not really sure if I should believe it. Anyone can come forward now and say the same and start a religion of his own, right?(Well, other than the backlash from all religions condemning him as a false prophet and all )

The thing that interests me is Christianity taking their stuff from pagan religions - if it's true, that shit must've happened thousands and thousands of years ago. The oldest bible around isn't original, not even talking about historian papers (Titus Livius and stuff, I'm not good at this), how on earth can historians be so sure of this and what are they basing this claim on? My history teacher said the same thing years ago, I always wondered out of which ass did she pull that shit and now Alen said it too. I'm not claiming the opposite, cuz history isn't my thing, I'm just asking.

Greco-Roman polytheism, for example, is well documented. We know a lot about their religious traditions.
When Christianity became the official religion of the Roman empire, 80% of the subjects were still polytheistic and worshiped different Gods. To get people to convert, Christian leaders had to make it easy for the people to keep their traditions. That's why they just incorporated them into the Christian myth.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Can any of you Christians explain this verse to me?

Luke 14: 25 Large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he said: 26 “If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters&#8212;yes, even their own life&#8212;such a person cannot be my disciple. 27 And whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.
