Will God accept you if you renounce religion?

You what, you think it's more likely a deity/dieties existed for ever and made the universe. We even have theories for before the Big Bang now.
Of course an all powerful being cant do it.
We have full power over robots, we are like gods to them.
Itself impossible to have free will, without th possibility of evil. You remove evil from the equation you at best have only partial free will and more like, a pre programmed being, exactly how robots are today. With no say in what they do or believe.
Not all powerful then is he?
Why does avenge one discuses the hobbit?
It doesn't make any differenc what you believe.
Does that mean you never discuss any films/book/scientific theories. As you don't belive them to be true. Peer review is one of the corner stones of science.
How do you figure that one out.
He can't do it. Ergo, he is not all powerful.
It doesn't seem obvious to me... But I'm going to assume an air of sarcasm, and that you think atheists secretly believe in god.
I don't believe that astrology is real, nor do I believe that homeopathy is an effective means of treating illness. Are these not subjects worth discussing? The their effects on the lives of countless people and upon society not worth being considered and studied?
Yes. Atheists used to maintain the universe is eternal in order to dodge the question of how the universe came to be, but with the big bang theory you can't do that no more. Right at the beginning the universe was set up to support intelligent life. This was no mere accident. If there was nothing before the universe there should still be nothing. Nothing cannot create something.
That is not a logical out come.
He can't be all powerful. Something's are mutely exclusive. Something all powerful can not change that, they can only decide wether to. Take route a or b. in this case have free willow not. By making free will you can only do that by including evil.
That does not change the all powerful bit.
It's just your crappy logic, as you don't want to think about it, as you are so against religion at a rude mental level.
Incredible. Straight from the William Lane Craig playbook. Why don't you just go ahead and propose the Kalam cosmological argument so I can show you why it's fallacious.
Lol, go read m-theory I believe it to be.
How is a deity any more likely than no deity. Even a religious person should be able to admi it is no less likely.
So ... what you are saying is .... Science can never advance itself?
Back to not making sense. God is, allegedly all powerful. That would mean he can do anything he wants. As soon as you say "except..." the all powerful bit goes out the window.
I am not against people being religious, so long as it doesn't infringe on peoples rights, or basically doesn't make sense.
All powerful, nope just shown that.
All loving, yet allows so many to be hurt in life and the afterlife.

If you renounce your religion why would you care if he accepted you or not?
Some atheists may well believe such, but you cannot attribute a specific doctrine to anyone simply because they say they are an atheist, no more than you could if they say they are a theist...it simply means they do not believe in God or do believe in God respectively....their Creed would need to be stated, for an atheist it would be dependent on the individual to a large degree as there is no set doctrine or Creed as we see in many manifestations of Theism (such as Organised Religion), although there are some phrases being coined that some use to denote a particular type of movement such as New Atheism or The Brights for example.
