But of course you do. Your very soul cannot deny the work of God in creation:
Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
Romans 1:19-20
But friend, you are not safe, for the LORD has your number:
Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Romans 1:21-23
Your respect won't win you any points. We don't care about respect and neither does the LORD:
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
Hello, my name is Mary. I hope to fellowship with you! That is, unless you don't listen to church authority (Deuteronomy 17:12); are a witch (Exodus 22:17); are a homosexual (Leviticus 20:13; Romans 1:24-32); or fortuneteller (Leviticus 20:27) or a snotty kid who hits their dad (Exodus 21:15); or curses their parents (Proverbs 20:20; Leviticus 20:9); an adulterer (Leviticus 20:10); a non-Christian (Exodus 22:19; Deuteronomy 13:7-12; Deuteronomy 17:2-5;Romans 1:24-32); an atheist (2 Chronicles 15:12-13); or false prophet (Zechariah 13:3); from the town of one who worships another, false god (Deuteronomy 13:13-19); were a non-virgin bride (Deuteronomy 22:20-21); or blasphemer (Leviticus 24:10-16), as God calls for your execution and will no doubt send you to Hell, and I have no interest developing a friendship with the Spiritually Walking Dead.

You have trouble thinking of the right words all by yourself, friend? Jesus can help you with that.

Friend, we try to preach just like Jesus did. In that sense we are extremely Christlike.

"WHITED WALL" Acts 23:3 Paul to the high priest .
Christians are superior because we possess an understanding that unbelievers lack. It is through the Power of Jesus only the converted mind is able to understand what is going on in the world; what the Communists are really up to; what Satan's intentions are. Most unbelievers do not even believe in Satan and cannot understand his tactics.
Implying all atheists hate god.
Why is there no such solution as "I simply don't believe in God"?
I don't hate God, I just don't believe in him.
One of our True Christian brothers Billy Bob Jenkins has done a full study on this and has found that almost all atheists deny God so they can have anal sex. Atheists may be in denial to themselves about this but I think that Billy Bob is probably right,

Genesis 22:2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.

I know God wouldn't let me believe in Him if He didn't exist.
What about people who believe science shows us how god it?
Design science tells that thing like the bacterial flagellum and the blood clotting systems of mammals is and IC system (Irreducibly Complex).
This poll needs to keep up with cutting edge science as well as bible.

You seem to be the kind of fool who spits in the face of God and spits in the face of science at the same time. Theists and atheists both see you as a retard, quite an achievement.

I thought this might be a worthwhile exercise for all of the nay-sayers out there; the God-mockers who regularly infest our Christian forum. The Darwinistas have their "Dawkins scale" out there to demonstrate just how deeply they hate Jesus. Well Landover Baptist will not be outdone! This is your chance to prove to the world that America is a Christian country.
It goes without saying that every True Christian™ loves Jesus with all their heart and soul. I would invite them to describe in detail the manifestations of that love.
For those of you who are false Christians or weak-kneed liberals, I would urge you to think carefully before checking the box and posting. Jesus reads these pages each and every day. What you say here can and will be used against you, on Judgment Day.
If one person has an imaginary friend, they are crazy, if many people have the same imaginary friend, its religion?
