People know what\'s rite or wrong and should fallow morals but those who don\'t it catches up. Karma is more my belief

Steven Hawkins world renowned atheist who believes life started by a micro organism carrying chrystals on its back is how we came about admitted that it is possible for humans to have been designed. Good movie check it out totally not a christian movie at all totally a science flick. Also read case for the creator its good info. Oh and the bible is proof written over 400 years from all over the world people having the same experiences and same message, pretty good evidence.

There is nothing stronger than faith in God and you sir are a true messenger so don\'t ever stop doing what your doing and bringing that faith in the Lord Jesus Christ to others lives and saving them from the eternal death with Satan!
\nKeep the faith my fellow Christian and don\'t ever stray from the path your on now! You WILL make a difference buddy!

Hey guys, would you mind praying for me and my team this week. We have a show in Iron River, Michigan...an outreach event. I\'m flying up there on thursday and the show is on saturday. It should be pretty awesome. They are advertising it on the radio, newspaper and with flyers. We are having a combined show with stunts and fmx including about four riders (one of which is an x-games medalist!). Anyway, I think they will want me to speak so please pray for all that to go well. Thanks!!!

\r\nTo me....life isn\'t a question of faith, its the act of living my life to the fullest every moment I can, while helping others to achieve the same. Life is about what I\'m surrounded by on a daily basis.....family, friends, Redwood forests, motorcycles, and everything else that I love and enjoy. I don\'t dwell on what I can\'t see or don\'t know. It doesn\'t bother me in the slightest to think that this is it, and there is no "afterlife". This is the only life I need.....and I love it!! It could end tomorrow, for all I know....so its all about livin it up!

\r\nI have a metal sign in my living room that reads....."I may be going to Hell.....but atleast all my friends will be there with me!"......and I ask that no one reads too far into this....its just a comical point of view from an agnostic. I have very close, very religous friends that stand there with me and laugh when we talk about it.
\r\n
\r\nWe all live our own lives....and we all choose different paths....so if faith in "God" is your thing, great!! I have absolutely no problem with ANYONES faith. My faith revolves around the idea that when I die, I know that the energy from my body will pass on into another substrate....whether it be fire, or into a bed of flowers growing over my grave. That\'s all I "know".
