Do you believe in God ?

Just a quick question , do you believe theres someone up there listening to your prayers.
Do you believe in God?

 

Your poll is missing one key group.... agnostics....before anyone jumos in, no, they are not fence sitters as they believe neither of the other 2 groups of people know either...

 

God -like creates everything? No
Some one listening prayers? Maybe

 

I often ask @Simon Hampel for things, and sometimes he speaks to me and occasionally makes them happen

 

Define God.

A male diety living in the sky?

 

Poor agnostics can't vote.

I had no such problem though. For better or worse, no god, no Santa, no Easter bunny, no flying spaghetti monster.

 

My definition would be something that isn't bound by the rules of science and had some impact on the creation of the universe, the earth or life, or the the path that they have taken since creation.

So personally I'm casting a very wide net, if you believe in anything like that, I'd say that you believe in some sort of god.

 

@Terrychris I don't mean to be mean or blunt but have you joined this forum to talk property or to start conversations that often lead to arguments?

For the sake of the forum, I'd recommend a slow down in weight, politics and religion topics and start diluting it with some property talk.

There are a number of strong minded people in these forums who have a lot of great property knowledge but can't stay away from controversial topics which lead to personal attacks, disagreements, reporting of posts and banhammer. Then we lose all their great property knowledge.

Controversial topics require more moderation, cause more angst and divisiveness between members . I'm not saying they don't have their place and its not good to discuss such things but 3 such topics in a week might tip people into the banned camp before their time.

Personally I stay away from such topics most of the time, so I'm not going to join the discussion just put my 2 cents in on why we don't need to have so many at once.

 

joined thursday Straight into religion questions. Not a good look mate

 

I must say that I don't mind it. He posted in the right forum, so if some people only want to talk about property, they should just not read any threads in the Living Room.

I can't see him doing any obvious trolling or trying to stir up trouble, but asking out of interest, so why not?

 

Why would asking such a question be off limits?

 

Thread on religion.
Public poll on religion.
Thread on dealing with people who are overweight.

 

In terms of quantity, I agreed with MTR's comments, however DK's post seemed to indicate (to me at least) that new members (or perhaps any members) shouldn't start threads on religion at all, which is something I disagree with.

It's not a public poll, is it? I can't see who voted for what, unless I'm just not clicking in the right spot.

 

Look out; if you are an obese athiest, who voted for Pauline (or Trump)?

 

Do I believe in God?

Yes and she answers to "Wife"

 

And so it should be

 

Yes, fair enough. I think public polls should only be used if it's made very obvious that they're public.
