There are hundreds of god/religious beliefs.
IF there was a REAL god, would he not confirm his true existence directly
from his heaven to clear up all the confusion? Would he not smite all the
fake gods so his creations are not so grossly deceived?
There is a wealth of different religious documents that proclaim the
validity of various Gods. Which, if any, are correct?
Why would any REAL god permit his creations to be so confused and deceived?
Why would any real god clear up all
this confusion by that misleds his creations? Why would he not smite all
these false gods?
Here are just some of the religious texts and documents;
Baha'i Sacrid writtings
Life of Buddha - Dhammapada - Pali cannon
The Bible - Christian religious documents - 18 English versions alone.
NO, NADA originals of the old or new testaments exist.
The Book of Mormon - Church of Latter Day Saints
The Analects - Confuscianism
The Eddas and Sagas - Icelandic beliefs
Wicca - Neo paganism of Greece and Rome
Bhagavgita and Rig Veda - Hinduism
Qur'an - Islam
Adi Granth and Dasam Granth - canonical scripture of the Sikhs
Tanakh - Jewism
Tao-Te-Ching - Taoism
Nag Hammadi - Gnostics
Zhuan Falun - Falun Gong
Of all these different Gods and belief systems which is the true one, if
any, and which are fakes? None of these documents are any objective
evidence. They are all documents written, hand copied, modified and further
copied, over the centuries, by errant men with their own personal and
selfish motivations. All of these documents, except the Book of Morman, were
hand written and hand copied over the centuries before the invention of the
printing press. There is no way to determine authenticity or accuracy of any
of these.
The objective evidence is that they are all a mixture of inaccurate history,
myths, folklore and legends. |

This is more proof religion is man made. Humans put a "local" or
"comfortable" face on the religion of choice in their area. In the
Middle East they have Allah, in the Europe they have Jesus in Asia they
have Buddha.
Religion is just a man made institution to control the population at
large with the fear of the particular god of that region. People tend
to do less crime when they think someone is watching them  |

Hello,
Well, step back and look at the world in general at the present time.
Has religion stopped wars, greed, crime, violence etc? If religion is
all manmade and about control, it looks like overall it is not doing a
very good job today, is it.
On the other hand, religion seems to be instinctive in humans. No
other living things on earth have a spiritual desire. And as far as
the theory of evolution is concerned, it certainly doesn't need it at
all for its life forms to survive. It almost looks like humans were
created and programmed with that instinct. But Heaven forbid! We can't
have any real deity around, now can we.
So just because there are clearly false gods (such as the Roman gods,
etc) That doesn't mean that there might not exist a true God.
Actually, the Bible says that those other gods actually are promoted
by the demons: "No! The people of the world are offering things to
demons, not to the true God. I don't want you to be partners with
demons!" (1 Co 10:20; Simple English Bible)

Obvious evidence. There are hundreds of different gods and religions. Why
would any real god not inform his creations he is the real god and all the
others are fakes!
Why would any REAL GOD permit his creations to be so misled and confused by
all these false gods?
It is obvious. There are NO REAL GODS. They are all figments of man's
imagination!
Religion is things hoped for but not yet seen or proven. Science is things
seen and proven but not necessarily hoped for.
There is NO objective verifiable evidence that any Gods, Heavens, Sin,
Hells, Devils or Angels exist except in the imaginations of religionists.
These beliefs are held resolutely
to help people deal with their panic fear of death and what comes after.
When there is NO objective verifiable evidence for something's existence it
is logical to assume it does no exist. The LACK of evidence is not evidence
of something's existence.
The objective evidence is that no gods created man but quite the opposite;
that man created imaginary gods! (thousands of them!) |
