agnostic since id like to believe in a god but i want more than just
"oh a lot of people talked about them and this 5 billion year old bias ridden book says he's real so believe it" -
Do you want an explanation as to what I believe, or an attempt to convince you that what I believe is true? Because I don't think either of us is going to have an entire paradigm shift through Darflen comments -
Ideally, both. If you don't feel like it's worth your time or don't think you can convince me, you can just say nothing. Though, I think you could change my mind if you argue well enough; and if you don't like talking through Darflen you can DM me on Discord. -
I suppose I'll just start with what I believe specifically.
I believe that Jesus is God, and that He died on the cross for all the sins of the world. This is important because in order to get into heaven, you need to be perfect. Because heaven is complete unity with God, and God is perfect. I can't speak for you, but I personally have sinned countless times. Which is a problem because if you so much as sin even one time, you're screwed. However, if you acknowledge Jesus as the savior and king of the universe, His perfect life can cover the sin and darkness of someone else's. God loves you, and wants to spend eternity with you in heaven, but He won't force anyone. You can't spend perfect unity with Him while actively rejecting Him.
That is what I believe. -
If Jesus is God then why is all that extra jazz necessary? Sounds like he's working against himself. Also I think I'm gonna need you to explain why he can just take accountability for our sins, like, we still did them, the harm is already done. -
I would be interested in continuing this conversation, but maybe not now. It's late where I am and I have school tomorrow. If you are truly interested in hearing what I have to say about this, I can message you on Discord at a more convenient time for me if that is fine with you.

christianity but god made a social media called godflen and was competing with darflen -
In my religion God loves you no matter how much you mess up your life, and is willing to forgive you no matter how many times. -
Finally actual engagement, thanks! What is your religion, what can convince me it's something that's real, and why do I need this God's love and forgiveness? -
Christianity, we need it because we are born from Adam and Eves original sin, therefore we are sinners, He sent His son to die for us to pay for our sins, to give us a chance through faith. Some proof is they found Noah's ark blueprints -
Why am I punished for the sins of people born thousands of years before me? Can you refer me to the source of this finding of Noah's ark?

christianity but god is a cat that morphs into a fish occasionally
and being gay isn't a sin-
Dogs are beautiful, femboys are glorious, bagels are overrated, cats are questionable, and fish are tasty.

The universe was created last Thursday and all the evidence that it has existed for longer was only created specifically to make it look that way. -

the fish understands that carbon dating doesn't need an absolute date
the fish knows that the great pyramids were build around the same time area as stonehenge
the fish knows taxonomy can use a crap ton of data
the fish knows time is relative
the fish created this universe as a school project and got graded a C by its teacher
the fish accidentally leaked themselves in the universe and had to make a lot of excuses to hide the truth
the fish is going to reset the universe one day according to them
