Armenians & Christianity.

Re: Armenians & Christianity.

Why do you believe this?

It's not hard to see God is real. Not hard at all.

Re: Armenians & Christianity.

Whether it's "easy" or "hard" is not a valid answer to "why". And I suspect you were trying to answer the "why" question since you replied with a quote to what I asked. But again, this is not the thread for this. There are MANY many others about the same topic. So maybe it's not as easy as you claim for some people, eh?

You asked, "why do you believe this?"

Well there is no explanation other than they have met God and know that He is real.

You need to figure it out for yourself; seek God. No doubt you will find Him Then you will know why they believe it.

Once again, the ABSOLUTE height of arrogance to claim you can ever know or even understand God. God is sooooo much bigger than what you can know or understand. So once again, why do you blieve you know anything about God?

Everything you have been saying so far has been avoiding the question. Everytime you just say "oh it's so obvious" .. "oh you just know" ... "oh why don't you find the answer yourself" ...

... well bud, that all just says you don't know yourself otherwise you would be able to answer and you wouldn't avoid the question by pretending to "know" something others don't.

Re: Armenians & Christianity.

This thread has a serious lack of historical perspective and insight, just rants about the merits or demerits of God and Christianity.

Re: Armenians & Christianity.

Mouse, in defense of lack of "historical perspective", the original question did ask "why Armenians don't believe in God". I would argue that maybe the reason is that there isn't much to "believe in" (as packaged under the label of "Christianity") rather than whether or not the decision has to do with anything historical or geopolitical or some such.

Then maybe I should move this to the Armenian general talk forum.

First of all, please point out where I said I "understand" and "know" God...

Of all people, YOU are telling ME what God is about? I know you like to think logically, but there is nothing logical about this topic.

There is no "God = this+this"; what I am saying is that no one can tell you, you need to find it yourself. And you continue to want a definitive answer.

Why do I believe I know anything about God? Because the Bible tells me so.

Ok, you can believe whatever you want about me. I know that I know and you seem to come to some questionable assumptions because you didn't get the answer you were hoping for.

Avoiding the question...What was your question again? Why does one believe in God? There is no universal answer just in case you were wondering...

That's all I wanted you to admit. You haven't "met" God and neither has anyone else. This all stems from when YOU said:

You asked, "why do you believe this?"

You haven't met God. As you yourself said, you just believe because the Bible says so. That's pretty much the only "reason" you have for believing what you believe. Now going down the path of discussing how rediculous (or not) it is to believe the Bible (a collection of books written by man, translated and modified over generations and generations, and somehow handed to you), and not to question it one bit, is a WHOLE different topic. But at least it's good that you can admit that all your beliefs about God are based on what the Bible says and has nothing to do with you anyone else that has "met" God.
