    Thats why people do bad things. They choose to.
    Let's entertain this notion. Will there be free agency in heaven? Or will people be allowed to sin? If people are allowed to sin in heaven then there was no point in making the distinction between heaven and earth. If people won't be allowed to sin in heaven and perfection will be achieved then God would have accomplished Satan's plan but managed to send an innumerable amount of people to suffer for eternity in the process.

    If he had opinions like this on any other topic we would call him a fucking idiot, but when it's about religion suddenly we're intolerant.

    The thing that really, truly swayed me away from Christianity, and I haven't told a soul this either..I am being 100% truthful, I know I troll a lot but hear me out here. The real reason I stopped believing? I've dedicated over 15 years of my life to being a Christian. Even when I was a small child..I was devout. If all the believers, and prophets and great men in the Bible that did right in Gods eyes received signs, and got to talk to Angels, and even God himself, why couldn't God give me a small sign that he walked with me?
    When the best friend I had in the world died, why couldn't God tell me that he was there for me, that he would be my best friend? Where was God to pick my head up when I lost my girlfriend in a car accident? Just a simple sign for a devout believer. "James, I am here I am carrying you." That's all I really needed, but instead I just had to entertain the theory of God in my brain.
    I realized after a long time, that it was me that picked me up through those hard times. Not God.
    You need to find God. You need to feel Him. You need to pray to ONE true GOD ! Only then you will find Him helping you.

    Your behavior is pretty self explanatory of why GOD didn't showed you any sign.

    It's because the theory of a man living up in the clouds watching over us is quite... Unlikely...

    because the theory of god is a immature, underdeveloped one.

    Because if there is no God then they could do whatever they want to (live like animals).
    Also if there is no God then there can be no sin,anything goes,also most believe in the teachings of Darwin that are all theorys and are not proven.God is real and HIS judgement also hence no GOD no Judgement.Anyway,eventhough they don't believe in a God they do have a (god)in satan the god of this world.
