Yes, most definitely. It's really hard to explain why I believe in God. I haven't always believed he is real- there have been times when I have doubted it. I think that is okay. Sometimes, we have to work through the misery of doubt. Although it really does upset me when someone says outright that God does not exist, what can I do about it? It's a matter of faith. But you know, even those who claim that there is no God have faith- it's just misplaced faith. They believe in something. Maybe it's money, or movie stars, or ?

I believe in God because I FEEL him. It's very complicated to explain in human language. I SENSE that he is there. I have faith in my heart of hearts that he listens to what I say in the passionate prayers I speak. I know he cares. I know that not everyone will share my beliefs, and some people may actually have valid reasons for disbelieving in God. Maybe something bad has happened to them in life, and they cannot accept that God would allow such things to happen.

If you could go back far into time, you would have to confront the truth about where we have come from. The answers are there, but not everyone is willing to see them. There is no way- no way that the universe just spontaneously assembled itself. Therefore, God is the loving creator. He set everything in motion. He has to have been there.

I also believe in the afterlife. I hope that things turn out well for me. I try to love people.

And that is my final thought- where does love come from? It comes from the loving God who created us.

I absolutely do! I have always had a basic Faith that God existed. Though it was never pushed down my throat or was I made to go to Church every week. However recently I had realized that I had also excepted that evolution was true as well. I realzed this was not a possibility. You can not have a Creator that has his written word of how things are stated to have begun and still beleive in something that goes against his word! This was a problem! So I started looking in to "The Begining". I went to evolution web sites and Creation web sites and started looking into it. The evolution sites dismissed even thinking that it did not happen that way? One site stated in the first paragraph that scientists thought evolution was so obvious they did not even discuss any questions or facts about it?!? That was strange!! The only thing I could gather out of some this, as far a fact, was that they said some flowers had popped up in the middle of other flowers and stated that proved this flower evolved to a new "specie" of flower?? I really scratched my head on this and said to myself where are the facts supporting this?? (There is another site called Talk Origins that I still am reading through)

Creation sites on the other hand are more than willing to discuss the issues. A good one is the following http://www.drdino.com/. Dinosaurs, fossils, age's all addressed and pretty well I might add. Also this Hovind guy goes around the world and will debate any and all scientists that look at the world as evolving. He has DVD's of these debates I have not seen one but he does state that he is running out of opponents and he makes it sound like he butchers their theories!? I also have read a book called "Guide to How it all Began" by Bruce Bickel and Stan Jantz. Again they make some fantastic points regarding the Bible and science. At this point I am fully convinced on a Creator (God) and am actually leaning towards an young earth point of view as well.

So basically if the world did not "evolve" it was Created (No other choice) and therefore there is a Creator. That is one of the scientific reasons that I beleive in God.

I don't believe in God as a person, a separate being who pulls the strings from behind the curtain.

I believe everything is God, including us, and there is no separation of us from God. We are God experiencing God.

Absolutley not.
I don't believe in anything that there is no evidence for. As far as "why does the universe and mankind exist?" The only true answer is "We don't know." Just because I don't know something, doesn't make me want to believe the first 2000 year old fairytale that I hear.

Yay! I can state my opinions without being criticized lol.

No. I believe Jesus existed. I don't believe, however, that there are two places (heaven and hell in particular) that are waiting for us up in the sky or deep underground when we die. I don't believe that depending on how we lived our lives (in sin, or not in sin) will determine our lives after death and send us to one of these two places. I don't believe that you can pray to some almighty superior being up in the sky and talk to him/her. There's no proof of this, the bible is just a myth, a book, that was written...HOW many years ago? And into HOW many languages? After all that translating, something had to have been modified, right?

My religion IS my life. I live for me, my family, and my friends.

of course i believe in God. How can one not? Look around, how can someone NOT create all this? it's too complex for the whole universe to come up from simple organisms. Even many scientist say that our galaxy itself shows that some type of HIGHER power carefully constructed it...

No.
I find the whole concept of a god creating this whole universe, consciously, because he wanted to, just plain ridiculous.

I believe in a higher power. God (or whatever you care to call him/her) is LOVE. Because if you don't believe in something, you will fall for anything
