Hello. I have been having a trouble understanding the difference between these sentences. 

I have lived in London for 3 years. 

and 

I have been living in London for 3 years. 

Please teach me how they’re different and which one to use in which situation??

Thank you so much!

give me the title of his book that has "Cause and effect"?? 

I am not here to disrespect believers. What I want here is not argument. I want to respect our different beliefs and hear your thoughts. 

I never believed in God. Nature is powerful, the universe is immense,the earth is great. I believe and experience that there’s something more powerful thing more than human. But God? If we say god is something that created this world,yes I believe there is god. Idk. if we describe god having human body like those paintings in church,I do not believe in god.

I feel silly or awkward when someone says “god talked to me” like whatever you came up with,the messages,the love,the alerts, everything is from your inner self. The messages you say you got from god are from yourself. The love you feel is the love from yourself,you appreciate those and it’s all you. You are doing it all amazing things for yourself. At least that’s what I believe.

So many people believe in god. i think having something to believe is a good thing. 

But sometimes they push me to believe the god whatever they believe in. When I am trying to focus on myself,figure out things,people tells me to believe in god,that i am stuck because I don’t believe in god. and that’s one of the reasons I don’t believe it. 

I wanna hear thoughts about it from the people who used to believe in god but not anymore or shifted into believe in something else.   I prefer hearing atheists than people who only believe in god and never experienced being atheist.  No disrespect. 

I’ve been talking to this guy. 

He is a chatty guy and he is not rude or anything. But in every subject we talk about,he says he is “the best” “getting paid more than normal people” “I’m awesome” 

Etc.   It’s good to be confident and all but I am just curious why he thinks he needs to keep telling people how “awesome” he is? 

Then I say “you are!” and then he says “haters gonna hate” like if I was a hater so I apologised to him. But then there he goes again “lol I’m not that sensitive. don’t worry” blah blah 

Is it him that being annoying or am I the odd one here thinking this is getting annoying?
