    So if you are not an atheist how did you find out about God and why do you not believe what he says?

      Yes but they are all taught the lies that they want you to believe. They want to drag your soul to Hell by denying God.

      I think Bill O'Reilly said it best when he said "Tide comes in, tide goes out - explain that!"

      Without God there is NO explanation!

        Thank you for that incredibly detailed and concise explanation. I suppose if we asked where babies come from, we'd get an equally involved answer like "ladies tummies".

        Here's a tip. If you have nothing to add to a discussion, don't.

          So you trust your science teacher over the word of God?

          If you don't believe God's word why are you not an atheist?

            Re: How do atheists think the Earth stays up?

            As a Christian and a man of god, it is quite obvious. In space there is no gravity, meaning objects float around. Why do you think astronauts do when they are in outer space? Now depending on the size of the object, it can have its own gravitational pull, hence the sun has a gravitational pull on the earth on 8 other planets which is why Earth is rotating around the sun. The same can be said with the moon and it rotates around the Earth. Its really quite simple to understand and Im sure god was meant for this to happen because if he didnt, then planets could be floating around randomly and risk colliding with each other but the gravitational pull the sun creates, makes sure the planets stay on their own paths and no risk of colliding with eachother

              So in space there is no gravity and between earth and the sun there is space but then the sun's gravity pulls on earth through space where there's no gravity...

                If what you say is true then please explain why did God fitted the Earth with pillars?

                1 Samuel 2:8
                He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD's, and he hath set the world upon them.

                Job 9:6
                Which shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble.

                  Im not going to bother arguing with because honestly, you are so one eyed and ignorant. Have you ever stopped and wondered that maybe God didnt want you to take the bible so literal and instead, use it as a guide to live a good/happy/fulfilling life. eg - love thy neighbour, treat others as you wanted to be treated etc.

                    Which bits of the Bible have you unilaterally decided we should do or not do?

                    What criteria would you use to override what the Bible tells us God wants?

                        That's the silliest thing I've heard all day! No where in the Holy Bible does God mention he wants us to be guided to live a good/happy/fulfilling life. He does mention, however, quite specifically, that our chief objective is to obey His commands.

                        Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.

                                Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
                                Ecclesiastes 12:13

                                How in the world would one keep a command unless they read it as the Holy Bible is written?
                                So our chief objective is to obey gods demands? You make god out to sound like he has us as slaves
