Anon1: I believe the earth is round.
Anon2: I believe the earth is flat.
Who is right and who is wrong?
When Anon1 say the earth is round, he pictures himself being in space looking at the earth.
When Anon2 say the earth is flat, he looks at the earth as he has experianced it all his life.
The truth is that Anon1 and Anon2 are both true, cause they see it in different perspectives. Who knows, in the fourth dimension maybe the earth is flat again?
Anon1 can argue that in reality the earth is still round, as seen by sattelites ages ago, and calculated even more ages ago.
Anon2 can argue that we may not understand the nature of it all and that the earth may still be flat in a even higher perspective.
Anon3 can then step forward and say that nothing is really round or flat so you are both wrong.
Anon4 can then say to Anon3 that he's wrong, cause there are ideas of round and flat that the round and flat belongs to.
etc.
etc.
etc.
etc.
I suspect such a argument can go on forever, without any conclusion.
So the conclusion I want to give to you all is that no one is right or wrong. They are only right and wrong by their own perspective. This is even in the Bible.
Respect eachothers belief, cause whenever we believe something we have a reason to. Belief cannot doubt it's own belief, cause then it wouldn't be a belief - it would be a doubt.
If you don't believe then don't be a hypocrite saying you do. What you experiance may very well be a wish to belief. If that's the case, then pray to God that He let's you believe and take away your doubt.
The sum of what I wanted to say, is that we should respect eachothers belief, though it seems they are utterly wrong and illogical. Don't try to "convert" either to atheist or to theist. What you should do though, is to give your view of it. Then it's up to each person what to do.
