Is there a God : Comments

By Peter Bowden, published 27/3/2020

God does not appear to be looking after the welfare of those people who have chosen to support him.

Runner: tell that to every god denying regime of the past whether it be Stalin, Mao or Planned parenthood.

Tell that to every God supporting regime of the past, whether it be the Catholics, Protestants, Jew, moslims, Greek, Roman, Persian, etc.

You just can't point at Stalin or Mao, etc. They were & are all in it for the money & fame.

funny Jayb that immigrants have always wanted to move to countries where laws and were based on Judea Christian bible. Nowhere have you ever seen any queue's to godless regimes that show no mercy as demonstrated by planned parenthood. Then again with no moral base truth will never matter to you which allows you to misrepresent in order to fit your lying narrative.

Well, runner you brought up the past, all I did was expand on your take.

Do you deny the terrible history of Christianity. The first Order of Business after the Nicene Conference was to eliminate (Murder) any Christian Sect that didn't fall into line with the Pauline Christian Doctrine.

2020 years later we have the JW's, 7DA's, All the multitude of Baptists (Christians) who would have all the other Christian Sects hanging on a Cross, if they could. Wouldn't you?

Hello Peter,
Reading your article I thought you must be a disillusioned Uniting Church or Anglican minister, but not so it appears.

The question of whether God exists or not is not solved by examining how well Christians adhere to the faith which they believe in. Instead it is a question of how did we get to be here? In all the thinking of people, there have only ever been 2 answers arrived at.
1) We were created by an agency outside of what we see about us.
2) We evolved by chance processes and as such you are just a bag of atoms and molecules, held together by magnetic and electrostatic forces, moving around in time and space. If this is what you believe (and I realize you didn't actually state what your position is), then there is nothing for you to say. You are indistinguishable from a lettuce. On day you will die, and the evolved earth around you won't care a bit.

For myself I have come to the realization that there is a God outside of creation because there is no other explanation (no room here to go thru the implausibility/impossibility of macro evolution).

The question then arises, has He revealed anything about Himself to us? Whilst I have not read all the books in the world, I am satisfied that His word for us is revealed in the Christian Bible.

You could find Him for yourself if you can put yourself in a submissive frame of mind. The Bible says you, Peter, will know He is there if you seek Him. Quietly, and without a superior attitude. Open yourself to Him, and ask Him to reveal Himself to you. And you will find Him.

It is a wonderful experience, life changing, and one which I pray you will undertake for yourself. Your future depends on it.

still basing your narrative on complete lies Jayb, meanwhile nodding to the god deniers slaughtering millions of unborn babies in the womb. Oh that's right they aren't people like the Jews were not human. Plenty pseudo science to back your excuses.

Hey runner,
China apparently killed 50 million unborn during the one-child policy.
Going by the COVID-19 stats, that's probably a conservative estimate.
- Maybe they stopped counting when the number got too embarrassing.
