Maybe, but even if the truth is a cliche, that doesn't make it less true...

Curiosity would be more likely... At least in this situation... And I didn't understand what you meant with "talk is cheap"...

But even though I may knee before him, I would never feel like he deserves that... @ the Ogre: Just because I talk with married people, it doesn't mean I am married...

Well then, your god sure is reasonable...

That's good news for me then... I mean, if Christ doesn't mind showing himself to me, at least, I wouldn't have any problem believing him... But praise him... I wouldn't praise even god himself... Don't get me wrong, if god shows himself to me and prove that it was him who created us, I would be thankful... But between that and praise goes a long way...

But what happens if I don't get that "testify of truth" before I die? Do I go to hell, even though it isn't my fault?

But then how do you distinguish true prophets from false prophets?

@ 3 previous posters: But religion is about trying to explain how the universe works, how it came to existence, etc. If various people have diferent points of views, and therefore diferent explanations, they should belong to diferent lobbies, like people who are pro-gay marriage belong to one group of people and the others to another group... I think that at least they should belong to diferent sub-groups... And also this would make most beliefs incorrect...

Even I don't know that... I just remember it was quite diferent from the christian doctrine... Also, I see many of you have diferent views about the creation of the universe, the world, mankind, etc. That is one aspect of religion in general that doesn't fit in my head: shouldn't you be in diferent religious groups since your views about god and its relation to the universe are diferent? I am sorry about so many questions, and thank you for your patience once again...

Ok just checking...

No I wasn't refering to evolution...I heard a very diferent version of mankind's creation that according to some people was the mormon version... Actually I disagree with you but that's for another topic... BTW why didn't you write God but G-d instead? And H- instead of He? @ ztodd: Even though I find it hard to believe just in other people's words alone ( I am an atheist for some reason right? ), thanks for those links and brief explanation ztodd :)

Physical eternal life?

So, I am an atheist, but I am curious about this religion... Therefore, I am trying to know a little more about it... What I want to know is this: I heard that mormons believe in a diferent origin for mankind than the one that appears in the bible, even though the bible makes part of your scriptures... If this is true, then I want to know how can this be... If it isn't, do you mind telling me which one do you believe in and, if it is diferent from the one in the bible, then how do you explain the origin of mankind? Thanks for your patience... Peace...

Are you sure about that?
