Very simple.

There are two possibilities of we being here. Either we are here by Chance or we have been Created.

What are we made from? Cells. Let us now put aside the question of "how the first cell originated" and ask a much easier question: How did the first protein originate? The theory of evolution has no answer to this question either.

Proteins are made up of molecules, called "amino acids". There are 500-1,000 amino acids in an average protein. The important point is that amino acids have to line up in a certain sequence to form a protein. There are 20 different amino acid types used in living organisms. These amino acids do not combine at random to form proteins. Every protein has a certain amino acid sequence and this sequence must be precisely matched. Even the deficiency or the replacement of a single amino acid renders that protein a useless lump of molecules. For this reason, every amino acid must be just at the right place in the right sequence. The instructions for this sequence are stored in the DNA of the cell and, according to them, the proteins are produced.

The theory of evolution claims that the first proteins formed "by chance". Probabilistic calculations, however, show that this is by no means possible. For instance, the probability of the amino acid sequence of a protein made up of 500 amino acids being in the correct order is 1 in 10^950.
10^950 is an incomprehensible figure formed by placing 950 zeros after 1. In mathematics, a probability smaller than 1 over 1050 is considered to be almost impossible.

Even a single protein cannot form by chance, and there are billions of Protein in human body. and there are billions of people here in this world. Calculation would be [ 10^950 x Number of protein molecules in human body x number of people in the world ever existed ]. Can you imagine this figure. The probability that human life can form by chance is nothing but 0.

Finally, the time necessary for the molecule to form was 10^243 billion years. This was far greater than the supposed age of the universe - only about 2 billion years. It was impossible for the universe to have created itself, and for life to randomly form.

The only answer left is that there is creation, and when there is a creation , there is a CREATOR.

"Say: ‘Call upon Allah, or call upon Rahman: by whatever name ye call upon Him, (it is well): for to Him belong the Most Beautiful Names....‘"
[Al-Qur’an 17:110]

"Say: He is Allah, The One and Only. "Allah, the Eternal, Absolute.
"He begets not, nor is He begotten. And there is none like unto Him."
[Quran 112:1-4]

The proof that there is a God can be seen in the lives He has changed. Nothing reveals the majesty of God with more certainty than a changed life.

Please go to a born again bible believing church and talk to people about the conversion experiences. You will hear some real life God praising stories.

God exists and wants to become part of your life......were it not so, you would not be asking this question.

He is tugging at your heart asking you to let Him in. You just need to decide if you are going to retain control or surrender control to Him.

Can you give proof that there is wind? The only proof of wind is the effect it has on us. In the same way, the biggest proof that God exists is the effect He has on our lives. God is a personal God who wants to have a relationship with His creation. When we put our faith and trust in Christ, and have a personal relationship with our Creator, it is then we can know there is a God. Ultimately, it's a matter of faith...but not a completely blind faith...Creation gives evidence that God exists.

I was writing a HUGE report on my computer and my mom called me to come eat. I was about half done with my report and I went to leave the room. As I got to my doorway, I felt something tell me to go save my document, so I did. Five min later there was a power outage. If that's not prof enough then look at the Bible. A book that was written over the span of several hundreds of years by many different people yet it all corresponds perfectly. That's a miracle in its self.

The only proof that there is a you is that there is another who sees you. For somebody else to see you there must be a reality.
Mind must at least be a relation of the self about the self which could not be possible without a reference.
Faith is our point of reference.
Sorry, Only God knows God.

Loving God is about faith. Also reading the word of God can reinforce ones faith in him.
Now, take for example....
God talks to Job about dinosaurs in Job chapter 40:15-24.
People in Job's time didn't know what dinosaurs were or how they lived. God describes them and how they lived.
Now take for example....
Ezekiel chapter 1. Ezekiel describes extraterrestrial vehicles...
This in it self is unusual.
There are examples through out the Bible like this.
But, to me, one of the best examples is Psalm 22. This Psalms talks about Jesus' Crucifixion and how it all went, hundreds and hundreds of years apart. It even describes how the soldiers gamble for Jesus' clothes.
Only God is capable to describe events happening before they actual happened.
Almighty God is real, so is Jesus.
Christianity is not a religion it is a reality.

I hope this helps you...

I have no proof in the way a scientist has proof, and I doubt such proof exists. All I know is that going to Mass makes me feel joyful, reading the Bible gives me insight, praying lends me comfort and strength, and when I am loving others I am happy with life. I feel that God loves me, listens to me, forgives me, and answers my prayers. More solid proof would be nice, but this is enough for me. "Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe."

My answer comes not to offend you, but to help answer your question.
This seems like a question Athiests will ask. They think that if they cannot see Him that He doesn't exist. We just have Faith man thats all. The Bible is one of the best books of proof and look how long the line of Popes in the Catholic Church runs, all the way back to our first Pope, Pope Peter, one of Jesus' Disciples. That is a very long time.

, It would be necessary for you to define the word God. Many people worship many different Gods some worship their Car, to me there is always a More intelligent force ,and until we find the most intelligent one that I would Consider God. I say God is Truth and Love this is to me the very best Characters you can have. And The fact that God is a Spirit Makes him indestructible.

i dont think the answer lies in the bible or in the changing of a life, or even in nature. i think that when it comes right down to it, i believe in god for two reasons. 1: there are days when my life go colossaly wrong, like a three stooges movie, and i realize that there has to be a divine architect with a wicked sense of humor in order for something so enormously improbable to have happened. and 2: it would be kind of lonely without him. it would mean that there is no immortality, there is no one who will remember you throughout the rest of time, there is no one who cares when no one else does, there is no grand design, and there is no point, no purpose, no calling. i kinda dont wanna live thinking that. so i dont. it is absolutely true that belief is easier than non belief. it means accepting that what you see is what you get. and what we see isnt terribly pretty. so maybe were wrong and just cowards for not wanting to see the world the way it really is, but i for one am willing to live with that.
