what's your reason?

1. you are loved, by friends, and family
2. god put you on this planet for a reason
3. you are born to dpo AMAZING things on this earth. you may not know it yet, but one day you'll be looking back and think 'glad i stayed alive'
4. just because you're feeling like this now, doesn't mean you'll stay like this forever. it may feel that way, but trust me its not.
5. once you stop feeling depressed you'll have the rest of your live to find hope, love, happiness.
i'd put more, but i can't think of anymore atm i will post more if i think of any more

if god was real he wouldnt have killed my older brother and his best friend

God didn't do that. He allowed it to happen, yes, but He did not do it. sin did. satan did. the enemy is always out to get us and make us miserable bc God loves us so much and satan hates God. so satan torments us as a way of getting back at God. i am so sorry that you lost your brother. *sends virtual hug*

Maybe god is a dick.

and how are you certain that a god exists?

and for 3, that is again not true. There are worthless people. some people aren't gonna make a change.

this is very over optimistic and assuming the best outcome

i do it for my friends.
i'm alive for my friends.
i don't put the knife in my stomach because I need to stop my friend from doing the same.
i love them more than I hate myself. but nobody loves me that much back.

God loves you that much. more even. He will always love you and be there for you :)

Sucks to say I don't love him back.
He is the reason my grandmother and my aunts/uncles/cousins hate me.
They worship him and take what he says too far.
They refuse to respect me but act like they still want to talk to me. I f**king hate them.

i'm really sorry to hear you don't have a good relationship with your family. if you don't mind me asking though, what religion does your family practice? and what do you mean they "take what he says to far"? you don't have to answer i'm just curious. also, i'll be praying for you. and your family

My mother's family are strict Christians.
dad's mom is Catholic but she respects me.

me and my direct family [mom/dad/sister] are atheists

who says there is a god?

there always has been and always will be, even if you choose to believe He isn't real. God is absolutely real, and He sent Jesus to die for every single one of us because He loves us more than we can comprehend. i pray God would help you find Him someday :)

You're absolutely free to believe that, but the crux of the secular world's beef with theism is that things cannot be made so simply be believing they are so. Add to that the burden of proof resting with the person who made the claim. Then mix in the fact that proof denies faith and faith is essentially believing in something in the absence of proof, and every inkling of religious dogma presuming to assert itself over science is tantamount to a child warning their parents that if they don't behave, santa won't bring them presents on christmas. It's cute for a while, but assertions to the effect that "I know because I believe" are a slap in the face to both science AND religion.

Not to mention paradoxes
Like
If there is a Creator, there would have to be a Creator of the Creator and so on and so forth

I like the one about whether god could create a boulder so big that he couldn't lift it. Most people say no, because god could lift anything. I say that my god could, an assertion usually met with condescending remarks that my god is weaker, to which I reply "no, my god possesses superior creative power to yours." 😎

ah

There must be an uncaused cause. The universe exists, it has a beginning. Something must have caused it. Those of us that believe in and trust God, believe an all powerful being, existing outside the universe and outside time that existed before time, spoke the universe into being. He gave us free will, with which we can do good things and bad. He gave us the right to not Love Him. He did not create evil or the things done in the name of evil. Rebellion against God is the cause of all evils. Followers of God are called to love one another and to hate sin. We are all broken and we all sin, even if it's hating the sinner( which we should never do). The world is spiraling down to oblivion. People hate others and love them selves. We should love God first, then love others as we love ourselves. The first sin separated man from God. Being perfectly righteous and without sin, He can not have sin around Him. The wages of a single sin is death, not just of the body but our soul as well. Jesus Christ died on the cross, taking on the debt of sin for each of us to build a bridge back to God for anyone believes in God and the work Jesus did on earth. Birth, death (with the shedding of His blood), and resurrection proving that He was and is God. If your family hates you, they need my prayers but so do you. Man's rebellion against God will one day come to an end, then God will pour out what is called the Wrath of God upon the world. Sooner or later, this will happen, but the most important thing is be prepared for the death we must all experience one day. If you were about to be hit by a truck, I would warn you to get out of the way. There is something much larger than a truck coming at all of us, death and judgement by God. We can choose to follow God or reject Him. He will not force you to choose Him but He will honor your choice after death. If you choose to not be close to Him during life, He will not force you to be with Him after death. There are only 2 places then. Heaven or hell. Give it some serious thought since none of us is promised a tomorrow. I am and I will pray for you.

i'm kidding i'm kidding i actually read it all
doesn't mean I understood
all I know is I'm going to Hell so don't bother praying for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Have to. You are too important not to. Be well

I'm not really important
Not really anybody
Just one of 7-8 billion

It doesn't matter if it were just you and me. You were important enough for Jesus Christ to die to pay the debt for my sins and your sins. If the Creator of the universe thinks it's worth giving His life for, I'd say that elevates your worth just a bit. It is the most important choice any of us can make in this life. Any place called the lake of fire sounds like a place I'd like to avoid. I will be praying for you by your screen name every day from now on. But the offer from God expires when you do or He comes back to remove His people. Give it some thought. Doesn't hurt you to check into it. Be well.

That's an exmple of a bare assertion fallacy. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipse_dixit

Logic is seldom compelling to the religiously dogmatic because logic is anathema to religion.

The first sentence is an argument from incredulity. The second is begging the question. Both are logical fallacies that represent 2 cornerstones of religion.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begging_the_question

The rest of your comment is religious dogma. Quaint, but irrelevant to secular life.

But entirely relevant to eternal life. The message is important but only the individual can decide how much belief to give to it.

That would be the "appeal to ignorance" fallacy.

https://helpfulprofessor.com/appeal-to-ignorance-examples/

I generally find appealing to man's commentary on the Bible, lacking gravitas, authority over the Bible. If you wish to make the clear teaching of the Gospel message less clear than by all means, knock yourself out. I will continue attempting to get the message out there and I will pray for you and anyone seeking the truth. Be well.

This is why I order stuff online a lot
"I can't die, my package hasn't arrived yet"

I have other reasons too, obviously, but that's one of my biggest coping mechanisms

Laziness. It takes more effort to kill yourself than it does to keep living.

I can't tell if that's good or bad

the overwhelming urge to tell show everybody that i f**king lived. i did that shit and it was so hard. i want to look my enemies in the eye and say "i conquered the worst enemy in life, and that was myself, so you cannot do shit to me anymore."

i can't SLAY if i die

1. I want to pursue my dreams
2. My Nana wants me to protect my mom and my sister when shs passes
3. My family needs me
4. I want to outlive my enemies
5. My friends.

Not to be a dick, but all those obstacles can be removed with a bit of good old fashioned murder 1. Not advocating it, just sayin

Lol
