well i was thinking lets start the debate...!!
here goes my first proof that god doesn't!!
firstly... god is considered synonymous to nature....!!
well nature itself doesn't believe in god!!
well ever seen a animal dying....
if it would have believed that god exists and i would be in its arm after that.... it would never repel to death....
but reverse happens... it is seen struggling for life... coz it knows... whatever it is... i only have this time spell... it wants to live here and no where else :P
whereas we humans have this theory of god/devil and heaven/hell!!
that makes us slave uptill we live and doesn't let us struggle for life!!

Survival is a innate instinct, that all animals, including humans poses. I am not sure how one can claim that humans do not struggle for survival and life, even the religious. The is displayed time and time again, and is highlighted in natural disasters, such as the earthquake in china, where people still cling to life and have been found alive after 10 days of being buried alive in rubble from collapsed buildings.
There are some interesting tangible arguments for the existence of God, For example there is this circumstantial theory. It proposes that we can be relatively sure that that if we see a house, there was a builder, if we see a painting there was a painter etc. This theory has been applied to offer some circumstantial evidence that god exists, natural biological entities exist, (with very intricate structures and interrelationships) there must be a creator... Just an example. Lets continue this discussion, debate, and philosophical fun!

Adding to that, isn't the turning to a higher power a survival instinct in itself? The religious idealize God as all-powerful, and believe that he will save them in one way or another. Either He keeps them alive, or takes them to heaven, where they live eternally.
The instinct just gets turned from the material to the spiritual.

I don't believe in the Christian God, but that was probably the worst argument I've ever seen. Animals don't have the same priorities because they don't have a concept of heaven, hell, or God. The same applies to humans that aren't raised in a Judeo-Christian environment.
Animals struggle as they die because self-preservation is one of the strongest instincts. Procreating and continuing the species are the religion of most animals and even some humans.
Please develop a better argument. You're making the agnostics and atheists look bad.

Ya know, I just have to ask, why do you concern yourself SO MUCH with what others believe, dont believe etc etc...I mean seriously, what do you care? So you are a Satanist, big whoopdee doo...live your life as YOU see fit and let others do the same....Whether or not god (any god) exists REALLY is irrelivent in the grand scheme of things dont you think?

I feel sorry for you. You are so stuck on being right that you wont take the time out to find the truth out for yourself. I hope that you see at some point in your life that all these things that man says happen however many years ago are qeustionable. And the people who come up with these ideas say they are theories anyway. We all come into this world the same way, so I wish you the best of luck throughout your life and I pray for your sake that you open your mind and take some time to find the facts for yourself. If you ever want to chat you can always contact me.

I am pretty sure I am God and since I have yet to find proof that I don't exist, it must be true, I think.

How can you say that there is no God? What did everything just come to exist one day, from nothing? I thank Jesus for my life, if it was up to us humans then there aint no telling what shape this world would be in. And you shouldn't compare amimals and there actions with humans, I love animals but I think you are belittling yourself by putting animals on the same level as humans.

You have reacted childishly to any members that profess that they do, in fact, believe in God. That's not your problem. You can think that they're ignorant or mislead, but I guarantee they're thinking the same things about you.
If they do believe, and they want believe, it's not your place to interfere.

Awful! That's just so lame an argument.
Firstly, conventional religion does not hold God to be synonymous with nature, that is the belief only of pantheists.
Secondly, even a pantheist's belief would not be disproved by this since they are free to belief that individual parts of nature (god) lack the consciousness of the whole. That is to say that the consciousness arises only at the scale of nature as a whole.
Consider, you argument is like this.
The brain does not process information, since an individual nerve cell cannot process information.
all the best urban

I dont believe in god, for some people its a true faith - others its a comfort thing for sure, something to believe in when times get tough.
I just dont believe I have no good arguements as to why not, only I have no reason TO believe.
And I agree for animals its not the same thing, their though processes are totally different to ours and they could not think of god if they wanted to, for animals its just a very basic and deep instinct to survive, nothing to do with god or heaven and hell if it even existed.
