Don't believe me, but believe in god??, Wtf? Options

[rememberme]

I came across this from a discussion from my friend

I'm not religious, I'm more of the "I gotta see it to believe it" or "Gotta touch something to experience it..."

Ne ways...


Why when another human being, something physical, something you know for sure exists, and lets assume a relative (so this person is trustful to you) says that they swear they seen a ghost, or had de-ja-vu, etc... People wont believe them 100%

But with religion, people believe it right off the bat or claim that this one person is sooo in love with them and all mighty to a level that is sooo great...

but believing that one time, "X" happened from another human being is hard to believe. ???

thats a good question. but,i personally think that since we don't really know god, some people feel safer. i'll explain: because we havent met god nor talked to him, god has never liedvto us, or betrayed our trust. some people, who we have seen and know are here, lie and betray us. thus, a lot of people would rather believe in those that have never given any reason not to give trust to. does that make any sense at all?

Thats why I meant, if a relative, like a mother, or father (some one close that you know 100% doesn't lie) said something along the lines.

First off, this belongs in Debate. Secondly, there's a "God" topic in Debate where all of these topics circulate and are debated. You might want to check that out. By the way, there are two God topics, both of which are 20+ pages long.
