I think people believe in god only to explain things that they don't understand. They also want comfort in bad situations and excuses for some of their actions. But these days it's just out of will for acceptance.
I doubt that there is a god or gods and I certainly don't support any religion. Religions just close peoples minds and make them ridiculously controllable

Yes, for a lot of reasons. To start with, everything in the world, from life itself, nature, and everything that exists, is too complex to have just happened by accident. Also because God has helped me through so much, things that I could never have managed on my own. He's put people in my life who have done more than I ever could have imagined. I still struggle, but with God in my life, I can make it.

No one dared so far to claim creating, or being able to create, any single thing, even a hair!! The Creator and The Sustainer of all these Creatures is One only; if there were more than one there would have been confusion in the heavens and the earth! That One is Allah (the only true God).
Can we find an explanation of the great universe? Is there any convincing interpretation of the secret of existence? We realize that no family can function properly without a responsible head, that no city can prosperously exist without sound administration, and that no state can survive without a leader of some kind. We also realize that nothing comes into being on its own. Moreover, we observe that the universe exists and functions in the most orderly manner, and that it has survived for hundreds of thousands of years. Can we, then, say that all this is accidental and haphazard? Can we attribute the existence of man and the whole world to mere chance.
In the world then there must be a Great Force in action to keep everything in order. In the beautiful nature there must be a Great Creator who creates the most charming pieces of art and produces everything for a special purpose in life. The deeply enlightened people recognize this creator and call him Allah 'God'. He is not human because no human can create or make another human. He is not an animal nor is He a plant. He is neither an idol nor is He a statue of any kind because none of these things can make itself or create anything else. He is different from all of these things, because He is the maker and keeper of them all. The maker of anything must be different from and greater than the things which he makes.
Imagine yourself in an aeroplane and you know it is
going to crash...
Who do you turn to for help then ?
Or on a ship in the sea, thrown helplessly up and down
by towering waves ...
There will have been a situation at one time or the
other in your life when you called upon your Creator
alone, forgetting everyone and everything else,
hoping, trusting, wishing that the Being you know in
your heart and soul that has power and control over all
things would help you. The only One you know can
save you!
Scientists, even though they are able to reproduce human and animal life through artificial processes like in-vitro fertilization and cloning, cannot accomplish these feats without the basic elements of human life that consist of genes and cells and other organic properties. Scientists are not able to create these things. Even the processes that are used by scientists to accomplish various procedures originated from a source whose intellect was obviously far greater than those who seek to discover and imitate the creative processes.
There are various ways to know God "Allah", and there are many things to tell about Him. The great wonders and impressive marvels of the world are like open books in which we can read about Allah. Besides, Allah Himself comes to our aid through the many messengers and revelations He has sent down to man. These messengers and revelations tell us about everything we need to know about Allah.

I do. I used to be addicted to drugs and alcohol. I existed in a very dark way. I was depressed. I hated my life and wanted to die. All I could see of this world was wicked and evil. One day, my mind grasped the concept of Jesus Christ, God's love for me, and his mercy toward me. No matter how badly I have ever behaved, I am forgiven. I finally realized that my way of doing things (the ways of this world), was the problem all along. Once I began to do things God's way, I could see and feel the positive changes taking place. The changes didn't happen over night and I'm far from perfect (believe that), but learning about Jesus and believing in him and what he did for you and me has definately brought about changes in my life that has proven to me that God certainly does exist and he loves us all. All good things come from God and all bad things are a result of not choosing to acknowledge and accept His way (Jesus Christ). Choose to be blessed, choose Jesus, trust God. He is real.

Depends on which version of God you are referring to. Yes, I do believe in God. I do not believe in the Christian concept of God.

Definitely not. There is no reason to believe in any god. If there were the SLIGHTEST bit of evidence, then perhaps there would be a reason, but there is no evidence.
Anyway, scientific theories explain the world 1000 times better...

No. not the christian god.I believe there are many gods. And i do believe that because if there is a god, it is unlikely that there would be only one.

Absolutely not,
For the simple reason that if a God is a god, it would not want to be worshiped.
