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]

Science versus the Bible, a debate that lasts forever, to those that believe the Bible only dates about 6000 or so years. This is the one thing that people use to try and disprove the Bible and the existence of God. If you read the Bible a bit more closely in Genesis, you find that the Bible does NOT date itself. If you believe there was only one flood, yes, 6000 years is about right; however, there were two floods. Read in the Old Testament and know that ever before God created Adam and Eve, Lucifer had ruled a kingdom (Earth). This was a thriving kingdom with cities and such that had grown over time. Lucifer was appointed to reign over this kingdom, then he challenged God. He ascended to Heaven with 1/3 of the angels and was defeated. The Bible never tells us how long a period of time this was.
The Bible tells us Genesis 1:2 tells us that the earth was without form and void. It also tells us God does not create something imperfect, so how could the earth be without form and void? Because, after the fall of Satan, God flooded the earth. The second part of Genesis 1:2 tells us God moved across the face of the waters, this was the beginning of the 7 days of creation we refer to; however, the first day was not the creation of the heavens and the earth as many believe, but rather in Genesis 1:5 which says, "And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day." I won't get too in depth on that part anymore, but I also have geological proof of this as well.
I tell you this to marry together science and the Bible to take exactly what people are trying to use against the Bible, and use it against them! Yes, carbon dating and space exploration shows that the earth is billions of years old. Yes, science says they found signs of the big bang theory. But the Bible is truly not dated to 6000 years, and who says that God did not use a "big-bang" to create the heavens and earth? No-one knows HOW he did it, just that he did. He may very well have done the big-bang and let things roll out in his plan taking time (which time to him is nothing as we see it, a million years is but a second). I can't argue the big-bang, but I can argue it happening without God's intervention.
Chance cannot have it that the exact two planets/stars/masses could have met up at just the right time, hit just the right way, with all the necessary chemical make-up to do the following:
Create a solar system in which could support life as we know it;
create one planet out of them all that rotated perfectly in a 24 hour interval, on the right axis, forming areas of drinkable water and inhabitable land, and proper climate.
The most complex molecular structure and physical make-up (man) that can speak, use his brain in a way other than just survival and self gratification, etc, etc.
Plants that take in carbon dioxide, and extract oxygen so that we do not suffocate.
Boy, the list just keeps going and going. It is just impossible for God NOT to exist, but if he made it to where it was as easy to comprehend as 1+1=2, then there would be no "faith " involved. Everything in life can't be explained away or proven by our now too smart for their own good scientists. It was not meant to be, no matter how brilliant we decide to pump ourselves up to be.

Depends on what you mean by "evidence."
There is no objectively verifiable evidence to support the claim a Supreme Being or "creator" exists or existed.
What people so often cite is "anecdotal evidence" which is not credible since it generally relies on hearsay or subjective interpretations.
The only "evidence" people have to support believing in a "creator" is their own beliefs and nothing else.
Matter & energy cannot be created or destroyed. The universe has always existed in some form, it was not created by anyone or anything.

It's a question of FAITH. If you believe in a higher being guiding your every move, protecting you from good and evil (shielding you as parent would from the evil reality of this world), guiding you through life, strengthening your resolve in choices of good and evil, then yes there is a God. I believe every athiest and agnostic, actually do believe in God or a higher spiritual being, because without that belief, our human race would have been lost a long time ago. I once learned in a world history class in college, that religion is nothing more than a concept our ancestors invented to ward off mental illness and create structure in the community, and overall to be relieved off stress of the unknown. If there was someone out there watching over us, then nothing can hurt us, right? I'm going with that theory, that God is our protector, our guide in life, our supporter, and overall a mentor.

man created god to try to explain something that eveyone wants to know and thats where do we come from who or what made us.And if god made us if there is a god anyways why If god made us in the image of himself why are we such back-stabing killing sinners and liars .?
Really if where the human form of him why are we the ultimate evil on earth and dont tell me its the devils fault because we have the abilitty to choose to do good or not and we end up doing the wrong thing. So i dont thinks theres a god hes just a profitable symbol used by church to make money. And if there was one that would explain why we are like thisCouple of people have it right. Man created god to fill in the blanks. Anything they didn't understand? God did it. They still do it today, just look at intelligent design. The entire idea of that is "ok, we understand *some* of how life came to be, let's just fill in the rest with god". At least they're not denying the truth in favor of fantasy, but I still believe it would be better if they could just admit they don't know.

Yes there is evidence, but will I share it with you? Nope, and I'm not even Christian. I was all like, "Goddam Christians are idiots for believing in God," for the longest time until I figured it out. I was pissed that they were right and I was wrong but oh well, tis the way it goes. But there's evidence, in our ancient history and with what we've learned so far in science you can piece together a pretty good case for His existence.

i'm not even sure there is any evidence in the existence of damao987-i see some writing on my computer screen, apparently written by someone using that name, but as to actual proof that person really exists-who knows?

No matter what you believe, somewhere there has to be a "Creator" of some kind. Even within the confinds of evolution and the "big-bang"... the matter and energy had to come from someplace...Some say this is proof of aliens or just some other higher being...Personally, I vote for God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit..

Try approaching the question from the other direction. See if you can disprove the existence of God

Yes. Creation itself proclaims His existence. Look around and see the obvious-there is a God. No one or no thing can be without a creator.
