Are Neanderthals going to heaven ?
What makes your "God" more "real" than the Egyptian gods or a Hindu God ?
Why did God create an entire universe just for humans to exist ?
Why is there no mention of prehistoric animals, such as dinosaurs ?
We have recently found dried up riverbeds on Mars, indicating that there was probably once life on Mars, do you believe God created other life ?
Where did God come from (If your answer is "He was just there", why is it hard for you to comprehend maybe the universe was just "here") ?
Serious answers please.
1. In all honesty, there is very little description as to what adam and eve looked like. For all we know, they could have been a lesser evolved version of a neanderthal.
2. Who knows, i guess thats one of those "ill find out when im dead" scenarios.
3. Same as 7 really; not necessarily right or wrong, just which one provides you the most comfort.
4. The universe was not created just for Humans, if indeed god did create it there are so many other living species on earth and potentially on other planets.
5. I could say to you: "why was there no mention that humans would live in brick houses, or have toasters, or drive cars?", remember the bible was written by people, not god.
6. If god did in fact create the universe, im sure that the earth was not the only inhabited planet, I mean, why would it be?
7. This is a question which I dont think you have grasped very well. The idea that the universe was "always here" is false, the big bang proves that. What most people use religion for, isn't to blindly believe in something that seems ridiculous. But instead it fills in the unknowns. Like: "what actually caused the big bang?" no one truly knows, and this scares people, not knowing how we came into existance, or what will happen in the future. Believing in something gives many people comfort, an answer to an otherwise unanswerable question.
Just to clarify i dont believe in god

I can just appreciate why some people do.
