There are a wide variety of reason why people choose "run away from God", but even in doing so they are still on the path that our creator had set out for us from the beginning. The main circumstance to consider is that today we live in an age of apostasy, rebellion, or "falling away" from the church. This circumstance will only amplify as we progress into the future of A.I. quantum technology, and trans-humanism. This is all by design and God has already set apart his people from the beginning, so even though at face value it may seem that more and more people are turning tail and running into what appears to be the comfort in believing there is no creator, no destiny, no Messiah, no spiritual realm, and no Satan, they will ultimately be walking the path that He had laid out for them in turning their authority over to the world and the things of it. I don't believe that God has a plan for us, because that would suggest that there could be deviations from the plan, like how we make plans nearly everyday and things never go according to plan, but God made the end from the beginning so all we're doing is going through the process.
Because you can't see it does not mean it does not exist. We don't see air too but that does not mean it doesn't exist right?
Anyways, stay well bro and i pray God grants you the encounter that you so need to be convinced that he does exist.
"People are intelligent", I beg to differ. Sure there are smart people in the world, but there are also complete morons, and as far as I'm concerned mass media has been doing a great job of dumbing down society. I may have to agree with you to a certain extent in saying "no such thing called God" but only to the extent that The Creator actually does not prefer to be called God, because there are other gods and goddess' in the world and He does not want to be placed into the same category. Orthodox Jews (who are a very intelligent people) are not permitted to even spell out the word God because of that very reason, so you may notice that they will spell out G-d instead. God actually has many names like Yahweh, Yehovah, Eloah, or El Shaddai, but the highest name is the Tetragrammaton, or יהוה in Hebrew and YHWH (Yod, Heh, Waw, Heh) in Latin script.
So what your saying is that Isaac Newton (a key figure in the scientific revolution btw) believed a lie? And yet your best argument to uphold this claim that there is no divine creator is because "people are intelligent"? C'mon man...
So you still believe that the Earth is flat? To me, creation of universe through'Big bang' and 'Evolution' seems more rationale over the so called god( Isn't he male?) creating it from nowhere. If i were to agree with you, then who created the god at first place?
Isaac Newton believed in god doesn't shatter my rational thoughts. After all he lived 100s of years ago!
Last time I checked this was not a "flat earth" debate, but no, I do not believe the earth is flat. You used humanities overall intelligence as a reasoning why people were "running away from God", and yet I use Isaac Newton as a perfect example of someone who is both intelligent and believes in a divine creator, whom without his work science would not be what it is today, furthermore we would not even have the English alphabet without the Hebrew language.
If human intelligence were increasing then why do humans still have a vice, like drinking, gambling, smoking meth, elevating and imitating our celebrity idols? May I submit to you it is because we use just as much mental energy now as we did 5000 years ago. Our intelligence has stayed the same but our technology and pursuit of knowledge has not. Darwins theory of evolution is still just that; a theory. There is still no missing link that connects us to apes, if there were than science would no longer consider it theoretical, and yet our educational institutions force feed it to their students.
If humans evolved from apes, then why are there still apes? Even if we did branch off from the ape family why didn't apes further evolve into some other form of uber-intelligent creature? They've certainly had long enough to do so.
I am not asking you to agree with me, even my own wife disagrees with me and asks the same question you do "who created the creator"? And I respond with "the creator is eternal". This answer does not satisfy people that cannot compute the infinite, and yet that is exactly what science and the trans-humanist agenda is trying to achieve; technological eternal life. Human 2.0.
Good for you, guys. Keep it that way. I'm sure that's a possibility, but must be an exceptional situation. In some cultures, for different reasons may be more asumed as the rule than in others. Thanks for your feedback.
Yeah @hlezama I definitely think that culture plays a role.
Some people are brought up in the Phililpines to believe that husbands cheat and that you should accept them afterwards since they are 'men' but I don't think that is a healthy explanation or excuse for a person's infidelity.

A lot of people cannot handle marriage, and divorces are common, so getting married and staying married, especially for a lifetime is definitely an achievement.
You may not believe it's an acheivement, but that could be because you haven't acheived it @ohmygoodness.

You really think so?
Why do you think so?
I think so because what I believe see to me to be real and rational.
Because you can't see it does not mean it does not exist. We don't see air too but that does not mean it doesn't exist right?
Anyways, stay well bro and i pray God grants you the encounter that you so need to be convinced that he does exist.

lol... Whatever form it is in, the concept of the creator itself is the biggest lie.

I wonder, can apes hate themselves?

I tend to believe that commitment is more important than anything we might feel at any given time @hlezama.
I have also seen it expressed by saying that Love the action is more important than the feeling we call love.
Thanks for your post.
P.S. I also don't think that all marriages will face infidelity issues. Surely there are some that don't and won't.
I have been married since March of 2010 and we haven't experienced any infidelity on either side.
Good for you, guys. Keep it that way. I'm sure that's a possibility, but must be an exceptional situation. In some cultures, for different reasons may be more asumed as the rule than in others. Thanks for your feedback.
