Nothing wrong with that.

I wouldn't believer that something exploded and randomly made something to keep track of time either.

Believing in God is off of Faith and Faith a lone. You can however take science and conclude an intelligent design, and assume there is a Creator, but you cannot take science and prove that the God of the Bible is God. However, because of personal experience, and my Faith I know who the true God is. And these arguments are illegitimate because nothing in the Bible is based off of a feeling you have towards God, it's a knowledge and a Faith. If you can show me a reference where you "feel" like God is real, or you "feel" changed, or "feel" saved. Please direct me. Believing in God, isn't about making yourself feel better, as the authors posts assumes. It is about bringing Glory to God.

If you take science and conclude that there is a Creator then you're starting to distort science. Concluding that there is a creator isn't a scientific because it's not falsifiable, you cannot test for it. You can conclude that there is a Creator but not through science. Why you then say you cant prove the god in your bible is real through science is beyond me as that's essentially the same thing as saying there's a creator.

You mentioned for people to watch the movie if they wish. Perhaps you didn't cite it, however, you did encourage it.

This is dancing away from my question. If humans know so little, then how do you know your god indeed is the real god, is the truth, etc...? You said you have so little faith in humans and yet, you have so much faith in a book the humans wrote. That is not what I'm understanding.

I did read other people's posts. To make it easier on others, could you mention the user you're referring to? Otherwise it's ambiguous as to who you're responding to.

Fine, then he isn't a fair and just judge.

I give my sincere and honest answers. But I am not going to respond to these remarks, that are simply redundant, and have been answered several times, just to receive the same answer back.

In all fairness, you haven't answered all the questions I posed to you. I can simply refute your posts and don't need to formally say what I believe.
However, to be fair, I'll do it anyways. I was a former Christian, turned to Theistic Satanism (briefly) then to LaVeyan Satanism. At this point, I adhere to atheism with some philosophies drawn from LaVeyan Satanism and Christianity. I don't worship any god and I'm not planning to in the future. I dabbled a bit with and still do dabble a bit here and there learning more about demonaltry, however, I would not by any stretch of the imagination consider myself a formal demonaltrist.
