Prove there is a God.



I'm creating this thread to see if I myself can try to answer questions that question or even contradict myself and the religion that I believe in.

Here's how it goes, all of you ask me questions about Christianity, and I'll try my best to answer them with the little theological knowledge that I know.

everyone believes their god is the one true god. how do u know that ur god is and all these other people god isn't. none of them seem to be more provable than the other. it's also strange to me how demographic religion is. had many of these christians grown up somewhere else they would be another religion and would believe in it with the exact same conviction. that alone indicates to me that something is wrong here.

which is why i dislike when people point out that i'm going to hell because i don't believe blah blah blah. who's to say they're worshiping the true god. just because it's what they were born into believing doesn't make it right. they can just as easily be going to hell if they die and it so happens they should have been worshiping the wrong god this whole time.

Again, American-Christians tend to whip out the " you're going to hell " card wayyy too much. Why? Because they're not God. Who are we to judge?

And also, yeah, makes me glad to know Christ without having to deal with another religion. Another question I cannot answer.
