Of course they exist. Billions of people around the world have faith.
It's extremely powerful and guides how they try to live.
How is this so hard for you to understand? Maybe you're stuck on what they have faith in, maybe you are just lonely and need someone to argue with online.
Whatever the case, you clearly don't understand the word's you are trying to use.
I wonder how you reconcile the placebo effect, it probably kills youir brain to try to understand.
Placibo effect= you believing in something that doesn't exist. Letting it guide you.
You keep putting your foot in your mouth

OK, you can believe or disbelieve in whatever you want, that's fine, but I'm not the one who'll be suffering in eternal damnation.
It's never to late to ask Him for forgiveness.
Jesus loves you, give Him a chance, your life will be so much fuller once that anger and bitterness is eradicated.

At least he realizes he fukked up.
A troll backpedaling, faith exists after all.
Sad, yet funny.
We’ve seen it a million times. He’s just another along the line.
Soon he’ll get frustrated and continue to call people names.

Open your arms and heart and let Him in.
Once you accept Christ the bitterness and anger will disappear.
Jesus was lonely too, He understands you.

-Ephesians 4.31.32
"Now you must rid yourself of all such things as these:
anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips"
-Colossians 3:8
The Lord frowns upon petty anger.
But all is not lost my friend, The Lord is a compassionate and gracious God.
For He is slow to anger.
He'll forgive you if you drop to your knees and bet for forgiveness.
Humble yourself to Him.
Sound like someone be suckin shlong. Must be how the Preists interpret that particular secular pose.

Musk had a great quote on this...
The notion of consciousness.
The world is 14 billion years old
Earth is 5 billion years old
In about 400 million years the Sun will dry up the Earth's oceans, meaning that had consciousness not evolved within the 10% of known time that it did, we would not exist
Which begs the question if other single planet inhabitants w thought & reason had perished elsewhere by factors out of their control.
He believes many have, and as such...is that an act of God? Or just the universe recycling its elements?

It takes guts to be righteous. Nowhere in the Bible does it say Christians should accept unrighteousness in authority. Look at the prison epistles and John the Baptist.

There was so much taking place. Many sects were at odds. The Galileans were at odds with the Saducees (many of which were Hasmoneans), and it would appear certain Pharisees became Christians, or sympathizers at the very least (Saul/Paul, Nicodemus, Gamaliel, others...) as did Romans, Greeks, and Jews. The Pharisees, according to Josephus, slew the Hasmonean priests in the temple in A.D. 63. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharisees ). They objected to the murder of James The Great, Bishop of Jerusalem. There were so many signs, portents and strife, and civilization-changing events taking place.. what was YHWH doing? Changing the world.
This page explores the fascinating signs documented in the Talmud that preceded the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 AD. Discover the mysteries of the crimson thread, the inexplicable temple doors, and the extinguished Menorah light. Was 30 AD a turning point? Explore the evidence and decide for yourself.
Ancient Temple Signs and Signs of the Last Days
Unusual signs in the ministry of the priests
A rabbi tries to offer explanations regarding one of the Yomas, 39, but for a number of reasons, his explanations are misleading and incorrect.
He says there was two strips of crimson, but the only relevant one is the strip on the temple door, which did not turn white. He also doesn't mention the extreme effort in which the Saducee priests and sages tried to cover up this fact, as the people were upset, and too inquisitive. Consider:
"Rav Naḥman bar Yitzḥak said: The ordinance was with regard to the strip of crimson wool used on Yom Kippur. As it is taught in a baraita: At first they would tie a strip of crimson wool to the opening of the Entrance Hall of the Temple on the outside. If, after the sacrificing of the offerings and the sending of the scapegoat, the strip turned white, the people would rejoice, as this indicated that their sins had been atoned for. If it did not turn white they would be sad. When the Sages saw that people were overly distressed on Yom Kippur, they instituted that they should tie the strip of crimson wool to the opening of the Entrance Hall on the inside, where only a few could enter to see it.
But people would still peek and see it, and once again, if it turned white they would rejoice, and if it did not turn white they would be sad. Therefore, the Sages instituted that they should tie half of the strip to a rock near the place where the one who sent the scapegoat stood and half of it between the horns of the scapegoat, so that the people would not know what happened to the strip until after the conclusion of Yom Kippur. This ordinance was instituted by Rabban Yoḥanan ben Zakkai."
Rosh Hashanah 31b
The William Davidson Talmud (Koren - Steinsaltz)
Rav Naḥman bar Yitzḥak said: The ordinance was with regard to the strip of crimson wool used on Yom Kippur. As it is taught in a baraita: At first they would...
"10. Therefore when many even of the rulers believed, there was a commotion among the Jews and Scribes and Pharisees, who said that there was danger that the whole people would be looking for Jesus as the Christ. Coming therefore in a body to James they said, We entreat thee, restrain the people; for they are gone astray in regard to Jesus, as if he were the Christ. [500] We entreat thee to persuade all that have come to the feast of the Passover concerning Jesus; for we all have confidence in thee. For we bear thee witness, as do all the people, that thou art just, and dost not respect persons. [501]
11. Do thou therefore persuade the multitude not to be led astray concerning Jesus. For the whole people, and all of us also, have confidence in thee. Stand therefore upon the pinnacle of the temple, [502] that from that high position thou mayest be clearly seen, and that thy words may be readily heard by all the people. For all the tribes, with the Gentiles also, are come together on account of the Passover.'
12. The aforesaid Scribes and Pharisees therefore placed James upon the pinnacle of the temple, and cried out to him and said: Thou just one, in whom we ought all to have confidence, forasmuch as the people are led astray after Jesus, the crucified one, declare to us, what is the gate of Jesus.' [503]
13. And he answered with a loud voice, Why do ye ask me concerning Jesus, the Son of Man? He himself sitteth in heaven at the right hand of the great Power, and is about to come upon the clouds of heaven.' [504]
14. And when many were fully convinced and gloried in the testimony of James, and said, Hosanna to the Son of David,' these same Scribes and Pharisees said again to one another, We have done badly in supplying such testimony to Jesus. But let us go up and throw him down, in order that they may be afraid to believe him.'
15. And they cried out, saying, Oh! oh! the just man is also in error.' And they fulfilled the Scripture written in Isaiah, [505] Let us take away [506] the just man, because he is troublesome to us: therefore they shall eat the fruit of their doings.'
16. So they went up and threw down the just man, and said to each other, Let us stone James the Just.' And they began to stone him, for he was not killed by the fall; but he turned and knelt down and said, I entreat thee, Lord God our Father, [507] forgive them, for they know not what they do.' [508]"

I’m a sinner & we all are in his eyes. I’m saved by the grace of God. Jesus God’s son is my savior & I accepted him into my heart & got baptized in the public eye. I will be a sinner to the day I die. I’m usually not this disrespectful as a person, but since you wanna denounce God himself then you won’t get the kind version of me that’s for sure. I said earlier in this thread I have a relationship with God. I pray to him, I talk to him & as I said before I curse him as well ! Sometimes I get frustrated with this life full of unanswered questions to why the innocent have to suffer. Maybe one day after I parish during my judgement with God after he makes me feel like a piss ant of a human being for all of my sins. I can ask him why God why did the innocent have to suffer such a bad hand. You want to call this hypocrisy ? Fine this is my “version” of faith & I know in my heart if God does truly exist I’m saved & will go to heaven. I repent all my wrong doings & ask for forgiveness & I am forgiven. If you know anything about the Bible you’ll know that.
