Thats why they say "sometimes Ignorance is bliss."

[crypto]

If you need ignorance in order to be happy then you're hopeless.

[Leomire]

Not everyone needs to have everything proven to them for it to be real to them. And So what if we are hopeless atleast we are happy

Truth is not subjective. Everything must be proven for it to be real.

If you'd rather deny reality and be happy than accept reality and . . . well, still probably be happy, then something is wrong with the way you see the world.

I would like to point out a fallacy in your signature, Sir Crypto.

Christians believe that their God, Jesus, was crucified and killed. While Jesus was on this said cross, he bled. Therefore, God had bled, and people still believe.

[crypto]

It's a metaphor, and a movie quote. Now go remove two ribs and suck your own dick.

[Dante]

Actually Raunky im christian and its Gods SON Jesus bled and died so that our sins may be forgiven. So your both wrong. It depends on why the god is bleeding. If he is bleeding due to stabbing himself or falling or some shit like that without a noble cause. Yes people will stop believing.

Council of Nicaea decided that Jesus was the Son of God and was God. You should look into your own faith some more.

So before fire/gravity/earth being round/other planets/deep sea creatures were discovered they weren't real? That statement is incorrect as I am pretty sure those things existed even before humans were around. You make it sound like humans are the center of the universe. Only what we deem real is actually real? PFFT! That is laughable. To the universe, our opinions mean nothing. It will continue to go on with or without us as it has for a long time.

No dude Jesus is not god he can not be the SON of god AND god. other wise he fucked his mom.

The properties of fire, gravity, earth, etc., can be empirically proven. God cannot be empirically proven.

That is true. Which is why most modern religions try to point out we were not here first. We do not have claim to earth. Even though our leaders and most people think we do, We can not claim it for our own. Dinosaurs were around before us and they have lasted longer than us. Why? Because they didnt claim it they just lived of it for food and shelter.

In Chrisitianity, the Holy Trinity makes up God. You know, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
There were huge debates back in the early days of the church whether Jesus was God, and the Council of Nicaea was held. The Council decided that Jesus was of God, and that Jesus was God.
You should learn about the history of your church before yelling at me being wrong.

Actually God Himself said Jesus was His Son in Matthew 17:5

Jesus is God and is not God. Philippians Chapter 2 says how Jesus is on equal footing as God and humbled himself to become man. He is hence God and man. Also, Mary was a virgin. If you are going to defend Christianity, use the Bible please. ^_^

That's not the point. The point is saying that things that you don't know aren't real is a horribly inaccurate statement.

I am saying that belief in an untested hypothesis, or belief in something without any supporting evidence, is irrational and erroneous. This is a very simple concept. Stop trying to twist it into whatever best fits your inherently crippled argument.
