I see no reason to live my life as though i have a supernatural nanny. Whether a deity exists or not is irrelevant, because there is no evidence to suggest the existence of one, nor to specify, if one exists, which one it is. The word atheist means without god, but the natural state when faced with any assertion is skepticism; If I told you there was a china teapot, too small to be seen by telescopes in orbit around mars, would it be reasonable to believe it? Would it be reasonable to reserve judgment in the interest of not hurting the believer's feelings? NO. The burden of proof is on the person making the claim, not on the unconvinced. To respect beliefs held in the absence of, or in contradiction to evidence is absurd and harmful. I do not respect your beliefs and I implore you not to respect mine. To ask others to respect our beliefs is to deny ourselves the ability to think critically and learn from our errors.

The word supernatural is nonsense too, if a spirit realm is shown to exist, for example, it will cease to be supernatural, and will simply be called natural.

If I had to choose a god, it would be this one: http://www.fullmoon.nu/articles/art.php?id=tal

Quote from Falkoner
Science isn't of the devil, neither is technology, only when it is used to deny the existence of God and tell us that we are not his children.
The constant presence of both sadly makes more and more people question both of those truths.

The devil's influence is spreading even faster through the internet. Beware!

We live in a society.

Your poll options do not account for Pantheism.

Ha, those who believe things like nature is god and worship nature are the worst blasphemers.

Also, this poll lacks more because it groups all religions with one god together, when Jesus is the only one true God, and those who believe in other single "gods" or reject Jesus are wrong. In other words Christianity is the only correct religion.

So really the only question that needs to be asked is do you accept Jesus as the one and only God?

I'm not. It's just that the words of Jesus are always the same and don't change, unlike the devil's science.

I can tell you that that is not true and is also spam. This should be a serious discussion.

IIF, there are 3 divine beings:
1. Heavenly Father, or as most people know him, God
2.Jesus Christ, the only begotten son of God
3.Holy Ghost, the last spirit that will receive and body and helps us.

If the Internet has taught us anything about debates over religion, it's that neither side will convince the other that God does or does not exist. I'm Christian, and I say he exists. I have yet to hear a convincing argument for why an atheist or agnostic does not embrace nihilism.
