Can you be grateful for the lives of your kids but not grateful to god
by jambon1 inthis may or may not make sense.. i am an atheist.
i have issues with there not being a creator because of the beuty of life and especially my children.
but, for me, their are just to many negative things about 'creation' to be 100% about this belief.

2 Thess 2:11
by Dawn inbecause of this, god sends them a working of error, that they should believe a lie; that they all might be judged who didn't believe the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
growing up as a jw i believed that this scripture applied point blank to apostates - those that decided not to believe in jehovah.
because of this one scripture i was terrified to really look into my doubts and ask too many questions - i was afriad that god might decide to just "let me believe a lie" and write me off.. it took me a long time to get over that fear - the one scripture that finally resonated with me one day was mathew 7:7 "ask and it will be given to you".
