when you say xxxx god, do you mean you're angry at him or you just dont believe in a god? or religion? theres a lot of people that dont have a religion but still think theres a higher being somewhere (aka GOD). whats your belief?

i see your point omniscient. i dont believe in god and even if god or some higher power existed i dont think hes on our side. look at what hardships our nation has gone through in history, look at how much more it is then our neighbors. We were the first nation to convert to his word and look at how he has rewarded us. We have been continually invaded our lands have been taken away what we have has been pillaged , we have been almost wiped out from the face of the earth and now we are one of the smallest nations in the world, not to mention that our economy is in shambles. if there was a so called god would he let all this happen to the people that accepted him first. what is the point of god on this earth if he cannot influence anything. forget god do your thing. just because you dont believe in god doesnt mean you dont have morals and cant conduct yourself in a decent manner, people shouldnt do that because they are afraid of god in the "afterlife" they should to that to make themselves a better person who is respected by those around them and to become something in this pointless life we live.

tigran, its not god that we accepted, it was jesus. we were the first nation to convert to christianity. when you say GOD, every religion has thier own GOD or a higher being. GOD means many different things to many different people, im gonna get into detail on all this probably later on today.

i understand that, im not an idiot. but ok we accepted jesus then we accepted the god whos son he was and we gave up all of our other gods. so what you are trying to say isthat the god that everyone believes in is the same god no matter if they are muslim christian jewish. it just matters how we see him. for example we christians believe that jesus is the son of god while muslims say no he was just a prophet and god does not have a son, and that jesus was only a prophet. i understand. but if lets say jesus was the son of god, and this was real and we accepted this view and believed in jesus and became monotheistic than i think that is what i was referring to, i just didnt want to go into all this.

I disagree, i don't think he is a weak person.

People were killed because they belived in God in Jesus .... it gives you the right to be angry and disappointed!

However, i belive that *bad end is not the End* , our time will come and i belive that He is on our side !

I'm not gonna be "Armenian" today.

I think I'll start tomorrow.

Seriously, what does it mean to "be Armenian"?

Such a definition is so subjective, yet we try to give it an objective definition.

how is it being weak. it just makes me realize the truth. if you are arguing something and then someone comes and gives you a good counterargument to all your points and gives you all these historical examples of how your arguments are false and you change you mind, that is being weak?
