i am an atheist and do not believe in the existence of god. if i believe in god there is not a single answer to several questions like why inequalities, poverty, cruelty, gender bias, hatred towards other religions and if god is omnipotent and omniscient why human beings are committing sins who is responsible for their bad deeds etc. if any person gives satisfactory reply to my questions i believe in god. astrologists say it is all due to planets and they replace god by planets and curves in our hands

It is very disparaging to have this question asked as is. You ask a question that to you, as I assume means, why doesn't everyone believe in (the christian) god?
While there are many beliefs and as many gods to go with these different beliefs, your question can be taken in various ways. If you'd like a quick summary of the different religions of the world and their gods, with a helping of humor, I suggest you take a look at www.godchecker.com. It's an informative and fun place to start. If you want a more serious search, I'm sure you can find it if your really choose.
As for me, I do believe in a deity, but I'm not Christian.

Nothing has ever specifically suggested the existence of a god (except crazy religious people). I know there are things that can’t be explained but I think that some things are also incomprehensible to our tiny human brains. If a god does exist it would certainly be one of these things. I don’t feel the need to pretend that I know god exists and make up stories about it.

A better question is why do you believe what you believe. Asking a question with a negative like "don't" encourages negative comments that don't make the answer easy to understand. Asking why you believe lets the person answer from the heart instead of a defensive position.

I don't believe in the god of the bible because I believe in creationism - man created the god of the bible. I do believe in god. I believe god is all existence and non-existence.

Because if God creats everything then how come scientists are coming up with new things every day? People that should die are being kept alive or even saved, that's not God, and because I see it as a crutch to people that don't want to admit that what is wrong with their life is them, not God punishing them. Yes, my religion teacher in college loved me.

I don't believe in god because i believe that it is man's way of explaining things and to get people to do what they think is right. there are others but i want to keep it brief.

If there is a god then he is evil. Look at the world, he is powerful enough to change it, all-knowing to know about it. So how can be all good.

There is no reason to believe in something that doesn't exist. I like the Santa example.
