Indirect Proof of God's Existence:
Suppose that God doesn’t exist. I believe that he does, but I am putting my faith to a test and considering the possibility that God doesn’t exist. This will be difficult, considering I was brought up in the ways of Christianity and have always believed that God exist. What if I was wrong? What if my entire life I had wasted on the idea that God exist and cares for me? To prove to those who read this and to myself that God exist, I will suppose that God does not exist and prove that he does.
Everything has a beginning of existence and another force causes the existence. Nothing can cause its own existence. Throughout time scientist and people themselves cannot deny this fact of existence. How are babies brought into this world? The only way is by intercourse between a man and woman. A baby does not just happen into existence. Flowers do not just happen either. Seeds are planted and they grow. Think about time. When you look at your watch, do you think the watch just happened to be in the store and you bought it? No, a craftsman, an intricate designer, made the watch. How was the world made? We know that the world got here somehow. Everything has a beginning and a cause of existence.
There are many possibilities to consider in the subsistence of the world. Since, right now I don’t believe in God existence I will look into other factors. Georges Lemaître proposed in the idea of the world exploding into existence. According to fellow colleagues, he described his idea as, “a cosmic explosion causing creation.” His theory though inventive has many flaws. Albert Einstein denied the possibilities of his theory. He even spoke out at a lecture of Lemaître, sarcastically saying, “Very beautiful; very beautiful indeed.” He saw this theory could only be an innovation of Lemaître mind. The Big Bang Theory even challenges Einstein’s theory of Relativity, which has yet to be proven inaccurate. Another assumption could be the Theory of Evolution. Charles Darwin created the Theory of Evolution when he traveled to the Galapagos Islands and saw many strange animals. He then developed a theory that the animals evolved and that over time animals could change their entire chemical composition. His theory of Evolution says, “Everything is related.” Bananas are related to and can evolve into dolphins, or penguins could evolve into lions. If things really changed back then, they would still be changing today. There are many other flaws in Evolution. It has been said that even Darwin, on his deathbed, said that he was wrong, and he deceived many people. Though other theories have suggestions. The only theory that can’t be disproved is Creation. Historians can’t deny historically this isn’t true. So much proof is in the Bible.
What if the Bible isn’t true? The Bible has prophecies from the Old Testament fulfilled in the New Testament. Jesus fulfilled 300 of these prophecies. The Bible is the only historical document with actual fulfilled prophecies. Others have tried to copy these or make their own prophecies, but none have been fulfilled like the Bible. Another proof the Bible is true is the unique historical accuracy. Archeological evidence of the Bible’s accuracy has been proven to show the Bible isn’t making stories up. Dr. Nelson Glueck said, “No archeological discovery has ever contradicted a Biblical reference. Scores of archeological findings have been made which confirm in clear outline or in exact detail historical statements in the Bible. And, by the same token, proper evaluation of Biblical descriptions has often led to amazing discoveries.” The Bible is also has incredible scientific accuracy. In Isaiah 40:22, Isaiah speaks of the roundness of the Earth. We didn’t know the Earth was round until explorers sailed around the world, which wouldn’t happen for another 7,000 years. Only someone of greater knowledge beyond human comprehension could have told Isaiah this. The Law of Conservation of Mass and Energy is shown in 2 Peter 3:7. Atmospheric circulation is mentioned in Ecclesiastes 1:6, and the Hydraulic cycle is mentioned in Ecclesiastes 1:7. Even the Gravitational Field was introduced in Job 26:7. With all this information it leads me to believe the Bible is a credible source.
In the Bible it says, God created the world. Did he just create the world and everyone in it to putrefy? What purpose do we have in the world? The Bible says we are to worship Him. Also, If God wasn’t real, why would so many people devote their lives to Him and ultimately die for Him? There must be something greater.
In conclusion, we know that nothing just comes into existence. Everything has a beginning and has to be caused into existence. We learned that Creation is the only inevitable way the world and ourselves could come into existence. Also, we learned that the Bible is an accurate source of history and is a reliable document. The Bible enlightens of a high deity who wants us to believe in him and follow him. It says His name is God, and He loves us. In all my deciphering, I have found there must be a higher deity or force; therefore God must exist.

Cheating?
I have a question. So say that you don't have enough time to read a story that was assigned for a class, is it wrong that I look on Sparknotes? I don't think so because I am actually doing work. I am making an effort. I read all that I could, but there is no way that I would be able to read the rest unless I pull an all nighter. So I am going to go with Sparknotes.

Drinking...
So we talked about drinking in our class. If you are with family and they give you a drink then it is legal, so why do people flip out when I have just had one drink. I was family and I was bet that I couldn't drink a glass of rum. I took that glass and chugged and the family just looked at me like "Holy Crap!" I think that drinking in moderation is fine. A lot of people say that people who drink alcohol are going to Hell. Jesus drank wine. Does that mean that Jesus is going to Hell? If you say yeah, you might want to think of where you are going. Some people will say that Jesus really only drank grape juice. Yes, it was grape juice, but it was juice made from fermented grapes. For those of you who didn't listen in Biology or just don't remember, let me remind you that fermentation is any process that produces alcoholic beverages or acidic dairy products. Fermentation is chemical reaction that produces CO 2 and alcohol. What do you know Jesus drank alcohol. I also believe that it is illegal for me to drink at a party where a family member is not there to permit me to have a drink. We all do some things illegal though. Rolling stops at stop signs, not returning extra change that you might have been given, or killing someone and hiding the body. Oh well! Peace Out!

John Tucker Must Die
So I recently watched this film. It is an amazing film. At first I did not really desire to see this movie. Finally it was down to that or nothing, so I decided I might as well watch it. Also, while walking through Blockbuster, I see a shelf rack for Lady in the Water. I have been wishing to see this movie ever since I saw the previews for it. My mother and I almost went to see it in theaters, but occurrences prevented us from watching it. The shelf was empty. No copies of Lady in the Water were in stock. So I got The Wicker Man.
Anyways back to John Tucker. The movie really was great. The plot is basically three girls find out they are all dating the same guy. They also meet another girl, who is a social outcast and she helps them with their conquest to destroy a man. They even go to the lengths of getting John Tucker to fall in love with Katie. They are going to break his heart. The movie has some swearing, but if you able to look over it the movie is great. There is hilarious sexual innuendos and some not so hidden sexual satire. It is not the extent to an American Pie movie, but it is not a movie that you should take your 5 yr. old to see.
WARNING! SOME SPOILERS!
There is some hidden stuff like the girls sometimes say instead of they are sexually active, they say they are "doing it" or they are "experienced."
Others are said right out. One of the girls is taking Estrogen pills and when the other girls firgure out, they ask her why she is taking them. She says "guys take Steroids to enlarge their pecs. I'm just taking these to go up a couple sizes." They warn her about the dangers of her hormones stopping, and one girl the states, "yeah, and when you run out, you're gonna grow a mustache and a penis."
So I would not reccomend this movie for the little ones. Grown ups! Enjoy.
I thought it was a well made movie. Somewhat stupid plot, but great movie!

The Wicker Man
This was a great suspense movie. I don't want to give anything away from the movie, but it is intense. This one I guarantee you will not want you children to see or even some of your 13 yr. olds. The movie is very dark and has morbid twist throughout the movie. The plot was very easy to follow yet I feel almost as if something went unanswered. Why did none of the men in the movie speak? Only Nicholas Cage had lines. well, one man only had like 4 and the other was killed shortly after maybe 8 lines. Other than that no one spoke. This movie is about Pagan worshippers and women who believe in human sacrifices. It is very impowering for women, but it has it's evil qualities. You need to go into this movie prepaired. This was really a great movie. It will keep you guessing until the very end.
New Beginning
Well this is the 2nd time I have started this. Hopefully this time I will be able to update more frequently. So basically this is all I have to say for now.
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
