I don't think they reject "GOD" Harmonie. People simply reject another person's version of God. Even the non religious people believe in SOME power or the other. Those who have no religion at all find solace in nature; they see God in it. So, God is not rejected; only ideas of God are rejected.
Cheers and happy mylotting

You,have some good points there my friend but,I belkieve that people know there is a God but they dont understand him completely and this is the cause for the rebellion.They like to use their own karnal minded thoughts and perceive the world as they see it.They believe that they are the controllers of their own destinity and they like to take full credit for it.Nobody cant make it on their own without the inspiration of a higher power.Nature was made by God,and only he has the power to change it.

You make some valid points positiveminded1977, but not all people look for or see higher powers in nature. True atheists aren't replacing one form of worship for another...we just take the world as it is and try to make the best of it. We don't worry about where we will go when we die or the world ends because we know...nowhere.

Why people reject god? On my own opinion its because there are so many question about god that is unanswered. Same as me, I don't really believe in god because I hear so many deferent views about it and i am confused. For me there might be a god but until there is a prove I will not change my believe. My belief is that all creature in this world live because it adopt the environment and other creature need that life to enable theme to live. Individual make their future and destiny not because by somebody else.

Godis true my friend.You can see and feel it everyday.God is the alpa and omega the beginning and the end.The realest thing's in this world are the thing's we cant see.We cant see the wind but we feel the effects of it everyday.This is the same way God operates.We could not have created ourselves becausethe abilities of a human being is limited.God is not limited he can do all thing's.Read the bible sometimes and ask God for knowledge,wisdom,and understanding.God Bless You!

"...why do people reject God especially after all he has done for all humanity."
The problem with people who believe in god is that they automatically assume there is a god. People who don't believe in god don't assume that so it is very easy to go on living life without worrying about such silly things.
Please, tell me what you think your god has done for humanity. Why is your god THE god? Is your god better than all the other gods that other people believe in? What about wars, diseases, hunger and poverty? What about all the wars fought in the name of one god or another?
Take god out of the equation and the world keeps on turning. Wars, diseases, etc. still happen but we don't have to praise or blame some "higher power" and we can start accepting credit and blame for our own actions.

Those are some good points you have made on this topic.People by nature alway's want someone to blame for their actions and misfortunes.Some people truly believe that they are God but,they forgot one thing that they cant determine where they are going to go when the world comes to an end whether it be heaven or hell.
