  OTWO,

  You stated

  And if it didn't already happen, that is where argument starts on these forums.

  You make a fair comment, and you have been here years and seen the same debate over and over. I am only trying to have a laugh and get to know current posters in different ways. I post in different topics and have read past posts to get to know certain people better. To be strictly open another aim of mine was to bait Tammy, and she took the bait. (Thank you Tammy for posting). I am still deprogramming and I wanted her opnion on why God doesn't respond to prayers. I could have sent her a pm, but I thought it would be nice to have a Theist that questions the power of prayer, for lurkers.

  Yes you are right no one can prove that Santa, fairies or goblins don't exist either, but its fun watching people try. Hahahahaha! Well for me anyway

  OTWO if you get fed up of this thread I totally understand, but if not keep posting I am having fun

  Thanks very much

  hello frankiespeaking,

  Thank you for you comment. I agree with your point that God should not punish atheists for not believing in him. In my view Jehovah knows why people believe what they do and sees the good people for their genuine loving, kind nature.

  I actually don't think God punishes anyone!

  Tammy,

  I have a question for you. You state

  Christ then, is the basis of my faith. He is alive and He does speak as the Spirit. That has strengthened my faith so that I may know Chirst and God, as any who go to Christ may do.

  So you believe Christ is alive and speaks as the spirit. How?

  I pray all the time to an invisible God, in my view he ignores me, but not only me but anyone who prays to him. As I have already posted on this thread, I don't feel he cares about anyone either.

  Tammy, thank you for posting, I was looking forward to having this conversation with you, very glad you are on this thread.

  Science simply explains the process.

  I totally agree with you Tammy!!! All science does is make new discoveries. Humans in my view have discovred how God did it. Not discovred there is no God.

  In Genesis we have "God created the heavens and the earth." Now we have the big bang. Finger of God not needed.

  Why not?

  j-nat, thank you for your comment. I really like all of your coments, but never seen ones similar to these posts before from you.

  You can't then switch to "prove it" when someone states that science makes the need for a creator obsolete.

  Okay so I have read this statement a few times. In my view yes we should all do what we feel is right based on the fact that we have examined it and we are not hurting or upsetting people on purpose. I don't fully understand why I can't ask for proof?

  If you think I was being rude to cofty I apologise, I am just having a bit of fun and I didn't think he would mind me asking him for more substance. If you are talking about the word need as it is in itallics, I don't mean at all to be facetious, I have respect for your experience and advice, but I don't understand this statement.
