why do people lie to themselves??

[CrimsonReaper]

Especially in religion..like they would support gay people even if the bible says its a sin they would say god is forgiving and he will forgive us bla bla bla or like having *** before marriage they would also say that too, my point is why do most people act like they belong to a certain religion when in fact deep down they know they don't believe in god??

I'm just going to say that if this thread gets popular, it's going to be wall to wall No True Scotsman fallacies.

Woah that's tough.
I think that it's not necessary to believe in god to belong to a certain Religion.

But I got no clue ;-;

why wouldn't they follow god's rules and that being gay is a sin, if they believe in him?? im in no way shape or form a homophobic i'm just saying and that's coming from an agnostic.

You sound like ISIS, smh. So black and white. For instance, ISIS says those who don't attack kafr are not Muslim based on a verse in the Quran. How can you even tell people they believe in God or not? Maybe they're lying to themselves about a particular sin but to say they are for the entire religion is stupidity.

The image of God can be different from person to person. And a lot of people believe God is all loving and merciful like all these holy books say.

Well you know I don't want to start a war again but if we assume that a certain person is gay since birth and didn't decide it then I don't see how it is his fault. If he isn't doing gay stuff I don't see what talks against his believe.

i don't sound like isis since i got over religion, and that's why i created this thread in the first place, to know why would people believe in a god if they commit almost every sin and say that god will forgive them, i'm pretty sure if god exists he won't be that stupid why would he say that something is a sin if people who commit it won't actually pay for it...i call that bs, muslims on the other hand are somehow sensible since they avoid committing sins instead of saying "oh god will sure forgive me for it" kinda bullcrap.

yup i love gay people :)

all i wanna get through is if god is god how can he be so incorrect about something?? god is supposed to be perfect.

Well it depends on if

Some people are doing a sin and believe they can get away with it because God is all for giving

or
Some people have pressure from the religion and they have pride they are so much things they like to do but they cannot otherwise they see themsleves as disgrace but in fact in theend they will do something and break a rule

Probably the people you talk about are muslims that got insulted by parenst or teacher for doing only one mistake

any way islam gets teached the wrong way anyway in arabic country

I never lied to myself in my life. Bro don't test me! O.O

Your idea of God is something personal and your connection with him too, even if you are in a religion. Also, the texts contradict themselves by saying God is all merciful and all forgiving yet giving punishments out. I guess it confuses followers.

The thing is at least for Muslims, God will forgive any sin if the repentance is there, all sin besides worshiping others. And by forgive I mean, make hell temporary instead of eternal. Hell will last for millenniums for sinners who believe in 1 God but eternal for sinners who don't.

Believing in a higher provides a level of confront/security that some people subconsciously tell themselves they need.

 

[Angelic.]

they trying to be hip

 

[Nick01]

Not sure.

God didn't say being homosexual is a sin. In fact, God didn't say anything. He can't.

People lie to themselves to make themselves happier, duh. What kinda question is that? The grass looks much greener because it's green painted cement.

 

[scorezor]

because they want to me smartasses and be "popular" when well... they actually dont believe it themselves lol

 

[Yubel]

I've heard boys with single mothers are more likely to turn gay just as a girl with no father figure is likely to turn into a ****. Dat daddy complex tho.

 

[random girlz]

They can't accept the truth about themselves.
