Anyways, what tales/stories/parables were hard to believe? I could help out a bit.

I can't explain myself properly.
I mean that I doubt the tales about this God we supposedly have.

The thing with Jesus is we have stories and sightings or what not about him. He was real.

God?
How can we prove he/she is? There's just no way we can.

We cant. We only feel inside whether we think he is.
I guess people that dont believe wouldnt understand that.

I never know what to believe half the time.

I think the fact that Jesus existed proves that there is a God, if you do believe in Jesus. He was, and did claim too be, the son of God. That's why I said it's contradictory.

exactly, He claimed he was THE Father, Son, AND The Holy Spirit.
One God in three persons. (note, this might be just Catholic teachings, excuse me if it is)

Sightings of turning water into wine, curing lepers, curing the blind, RESURRECTING the dead, and Resurrecting Himself.
What's there not to believe? It's all been recorded, and it's been proven multiple times in today's astronomical age.

je agree avec you. bad french. really bad french....any ways.... i was reading the book of corinthians last night(a book in the bible) and there is a verse in chapter 12: a difference in the way of teaching, but of the same lesson, and of the same god.... this agrees with my theory that since god is love, buddhism is "all lives are precious"...etc, there are differences in belief, but its all the same structure.... LOVE dammit!!!! why cant ppl see that?

However, the bible says there is only one way to God - that neither your good works, morals, or values can achieve, and that's through Jesus Christ.

I am Ortodox, and yes, I believe in God. Without hope and religion, the man is just an empty shell, in my opinion.

yeah, i know that silly

but im just saying, in my theory, the STRUCTURE of most religions is the same. love one another,be helpful to assholes(and no, dont just help them find a cliff to jump off....) but yeah, the only way into heaven is by accepting jesus as your saviour...
