Should Trump Believe In God?

[Jimmy-tbpe]

God has created us and left us free will, which we can (and I will) use to create things ourselves

[Alora_moon]

Personally i believe God has given us the free will and wisdom to create what we imagine. And whether you use it for good or evil is really up to the person.

Philippians 4:13 “ I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” not “ I can’t do anything because Christ is stronger” …

[jessicaarmstrong]

Man oh man do you have it wrong. The belief in God is so not self-limiting. The moment you accept God into your life you realize that you have more potential and power than you ever realized was possible. Be careful my friend. I have been watching your videos and up until now I've been enjoying them. But be careful. I mean that sincerely. I am so happy for you that you're clean and sober. I know how hard that is. I did it myself. Or I'm doing it rather. It's kind of a lifelong project. But, be careful. The Almighty God will not be mocked.

To educate a person in mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society

[firestone]

God explicitly has given us the power to create, when he breathed into us some of his own spirit, when he made us in his own image and gave us dominion over the world.

[LordBackuro]

I don’t think believing in god has to be limiting, as a matter of a fact it can go the other way around where you believe yourself, to be ordained to do everything in your power to be a great leader. This is partially a reason why monarchies, were so successful the religion forced a sense of duty to its rulers, and also to the nobility class, of which the king basically had a responsibility of keeping them in check so that we don’t end up, with basically what our current corpotocratic society is.

Btw this isn’t me saying monarchy is good or bad, but some of the most respectable monarchs and true servants of their people had a deep religious motivation to do so.

Salahuddin, King Baldwin IV or for example Ghingis Khan a great leader for his people who’s monotheistic faith of tengrism allowed him in particular, be generally sympathetic to other monotheistic religions due to the similarities. And made him in general, sympathetic towards other faiths.

The God of Creation made Man in his image and mirroring him, man's creation is testament to his character. He blessed us with craftsmanship and commanded us to not only create but to express the beauty of creation. To teach and inspire all who witness.

[ConfidentialDreamer]

I would say that God inspires a society to emulate him in the act of creation because of the holiness of that creation. I’m not Christian but I’ve never seen religion as stifling my desire to create. Rather some people are born with the desire to create, and others are not. Often because of certain factors outside of religion people who have a desire to create are often not as religious. This is because of demographics if you go to college, if you pass a certain iq threshhold you are less likely to be religious. Correlation does not equal causation.

[calebbrinkley]

We have the ability to create and should use it. That ability was given to us by our creator who wants us to be like him.

God is the god of creators. He creates the creators

Little knowledge of science makes you an Atheist. Deep knowledge of science makes you a believer.

How this excuse of a person has a public voice is beyond me.

[יהונתןגבע-שק]

As a jew we don't limit ourselves because we are a creation of god. It has no correlation. idk what philosophical book you have been reading suggest anybody who believes in a god isn't able to create themself something.

[Nika-vd]

seeing God as the ultimate Creator doesn’t weaken human potential but instead empowers humans by encouraging creativity, purpose, and responsibility as reflections of the divine image

[corytanksley]

Imagine, for just a moment, that God is real. Now, think of what He would do to the world if there were no believers in it. My God would never limit humankind, so why on earth is this a topic of debate?

[harshitchandra_]

We need God to have absolute morals. If we don't have absolute morals, we have the next beter thing that is 'might makes right'.
2. Culturally being religious is seen as backwards in the US and it's bad enough that no Dem dares to say that they are religious. People in the US should have the democratic outlet for their views, who want children to pray in schools and not learn about Gender studies. There is nothing wrong with it! People should have somebody who will speak out their views.
3. You cannot know how good religion is, specifically Christianity unless you experience an actually oppressive religion.

isaiah 40:31 “but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength,
they shall mount up with wings like eagles,
they shall run and not be weary,
they shall walk and not faint.”

[jorgecastillo]

What do you mean? Being theistic is the most liberating thing ever. If I serve the ultimate creator of everything, I know that I can accomplish anything and that I’m not just an accidental clump of cells. Atheism is limiting because you have to accept that you are a mistake, a clump of cells, and anything you make or create will be destroyed and forgotten to time and it won’t matter.

[TurdReichMapping]

Because it is God's virtue to create things we have to aspire to be like him and create ourselves and give all glory back to him because he is the best of creators and made what we made through us, he does wonders and miracles through us. He has been creating the world through us directly and indirectly for thousands of years.

[horseboy]

We can agree to disagree my friend. Faith have been the driving force for humanity for millenia, and it's not faith in God alone but also in everything else around us from the dirt and the water to the stars in the sky, it all have the power to grant us faith, and faith is simply hope for the unknown.
