It's logical to think that there is a God. The belief that there is a God is the problem for most.

listen up mate - ur on to something.
when most ppl "dont believe in G-d," it's out of ignorance, not logic or knowledge. most ppl use "not believing in G-d" as an excuse to do as they wish without having to pay any consequences in the world to come or even in this world for that matter.
its all relates back to intellectual honesty.

Belief/faith (as well as logic) should only be used as a tool and not an end in and of itself - all tools need to be used to get a direct experience that will resolve the questions of life, death, Existence, God, etc. once and for all. All spiritualities and no spirituality have cultivated this experience (with profound happiness the result). Belief is not it; nor is deductive reasoning, no matter how satisfactory. Zen koans, for example, are meant to exhaust the rational, defuctive, dualistic mind as an aid to getting the experience. Read '3 Pillars of Zen' for a zen perspective on this experience.

Your question/statement really isn't making a lot of sense. Why would you think that its logical to believe in God? Qualify the statement? What is the premise for your 'logical' proof of god? I don't even know what you are trying to say about "belief". They give you 1000 words to detail your question. Use them.

The real problem is that people argue about God without ever being able to agree on the terms and definitions of God.
Christian image of Jehovah..... clearly mythological.
Mystic concept of God as the pure and ultimate reality... worth considering.
Rose McGowan.... proof that God exists and wants men to be happy.

I would agree, but it is much more complicated than that. To fully have the belief of God, there is much self understanding that must take place.

How can you deny Jesus's existence? He recently returned and wrote this article for a well known and respected newspaper. To read it, click the link below....

I have to disagee, it is totally illogical to believe that an all loving omnipotent deity exists.
There is ZERO evidence to support it's existence...

Yes, that makes sense. For me that is where faith comes in. Faith isn't neccessary to believe in something that can be absolutely proved.
