So God Exists, So What
Prove to me that God exist and I will prove to you that I will continue to be a devout, if not a faithful atheist. So God exists. So, so what?
I am more inclined to believe that extra-terrestrial beings from other planets arrived
on this earth thousands of years ago, and they came to introduce to our primitive human ancestors the power of knowledge.
Otherwise, if such extra-terrestrial beings came down to earth as GODS to save our silly souls away from eternal damnation, I said it before, I say it again: to hell with that holy extra-terrestrial garbage!
In the conflict between science and religion, I will always take the side of science even if, at times, science is wrong. I never take the side of religion because it is always wrong.
After tens of thousands of years already ahead of science, religion has yet to make one simple discovery to benefit mankind as a revealed truth, and not as a truth yet to be revealed.
Bertrand Russell summarized it neatly: "religion encourages stupidity and an insufficient sense of reality."
As for us Filipinos - the Sick Man of Asia, listen to Teodoro A. Agoncillo, a rare and a courageous Filipino historian: "Self-deception is the worst tragedy of the Filipinos as a people." Poch Suzara

Hi Poch! You don't need evidence for the existence of God. No amount of proof will convince you since you already presuppose the contrary. And I am not willing to bring God into your courtroom. Who appointed you judge and jury anyway? God is not under trial here. You are! The penalty of sin is death and hell. It is appointed for man to die once and then comes judgment. I am not condemning you, Poch. The truth is, you are already condemned. Whoever believes in Jesus is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already. Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. I believe that the real reason you despise Christ is not due to intellectual objections, but moral reasons. After all, atheism has fringe benefits. Debauchery and infidelity are natural allies. Atheists and your garden variety pagans, they all prefer autonomy from a holy and righteous God. They don't want to be accountable to him. Atheism absolves the sinner of annoying guilt . If there is no absolute moral lawgiver, what prevents you from cheating on your spouse, or terminating the unborn, or killing the baby who survived a botched abortion, or assuming the opposite sexual identity, or marrying your canary? If religion is the opiate of the people, atheism is the opiate of the morally corrupt. But there is a way out of an immoral, sinful , and corrupt lifestyle. Believe in The Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved! And your household as well. God is not silent. He is still in the business of transforming lives. Respectfully, Ken Sidadayaw
There are many compassionate people in this world who live very happy lives, are good to others and do so without any golden reward that religion offers.
They believe that you should be kind because it's purely a decent act between human beings.
In your eyes, Ken, these humble people will be subject to vast amounts of pain and evil.
If that's really how the world works, then I stand with them.
I'm glad for you that you've got some special place to retire to. You must feel very, very superior.
