Where is the real proof of the existence of God?

Question

People believe and have faith etc, but where is there actual proof of an existence of God?
I am only asking for peoples opinions, so please do not take offence to the question....

Answer 1

there is none....not one shred.

Answer 2

It is all about belief. All the religions and faiths in this world there has to be some higher being. Why else did all these prophets and wise men turn up and start writting scriptures.

Then again if there is no God then there is no religion, so what have we been fighting for these last 2000 years. Is religion the biggest con ever?

Sorry if I have offended any Athiest in shattering your belief that there is nothing there to believe in. And a question to all the Agnostic, how can you not believe in something that you believe does not exist, if there is nothing there in the first place. If that aint faith I don't know what is.

Answer 3

Just imagine that u re on a plane high in the air and suddenly u know that the plane is going to crash, what will u do? Whom u will remember? certainly the God, nothing else. If u really wanna feel the existence of the God, then Just have a serious problem and use ur all sources to remove, if u feel helpless completely, and there is no way to come out, then just sit down and remember ur God, and surrender urself with all ur heart and soul,completly.................., noway at all, and within a minit u will get an idea, a way to resolve ur problem. If this happens to u , still u will ask for the existence of the god.

Answer 4

The only actual proof of the existence of God is in the heart of the believer. It is different for each person. For me, it comes in the form of my life. As I give my life over more and more to God, I am able to see things happening that I cannot account for any other way. But, it is a very personal knowing. I am sure my experience would not convince anyone else but me. And then, there is the sense of communion. When I open myself to listen for God, I do get the distinct feeling of the presence of the infinite personality, the source. One thing that looked to me like a sort of scientific proof was this chaos theory stuff that produced the fractal designs. When mathematicians attempted to produce chaos, they produced a kind of order they had never seen before. To me that was as near scientific proof as anything. That there is always order in the universe, because it is a universe built, not just happening out of chaos by accident.

Answer 5

It is impossible to prove the existence of God. It also impossible to prove God doesn't exist. It is my opinion, therefore, that believing in God and being an Atheist are both positions of FAITH. I have had a couple of serious instances in my life when prayer appeared to be answered immediately, but this still proves nothing; merely that I had a personal experience that might have indicated the presence of God. Nobody should take offence by your question, for it is incumbent upon all of us to continue to ask questions, even those who have a strong faith in God.

Answer 6

Ill assume you already have your answer after reading the previous ones THERE IS NO PROOF. We are here, that is no proof. If someone came into my house and saw a pen on the table that is not proof that i put it there or that my son or husband did. It proves nothing. just that it is there. We are here because of evolution, for which there is lots of proof.
Just because there are large odds against something happening does not mean it will not happen. so the big bang had high odds against, so what?? when you consider the universe is infinitely "old" it had to happen some time, high odds against infinity. When you consider that there may be infinite alternative universes a viable one had to come along, then consider the size of our universe, the number of stars and planets life had to have a good chance of happening somewhere. Misused, misunderstood statistical odds are apparently a dangerous weapon in the hands of the ignorant.
I used to have more passive answers against these ignorant ideas but im becoming increasingly annoyed by people using the playground answers of "because im here", "because its too complicated for me to understand how it could happen another way" and "because the bible says so". If I say a purple fairy lives in my kitchen cupboard, sure its my right to believe so but im not gonna pretend I have proof!
Oh, and to the person that argued against agnostisism, Id refute you if i could understand what the hell you were trying to say!

Answer 7

There is no actual proof.

I guess thats the whole point - Faith !

Some claim that the Human Race is proof that a God exists but I think any reasonable intelligent person can understand evolution.

Well thought question. Made me think :)

Answer 8

It is a nice Q .U know there r many answers that can be said about being of god but i myself find the real proof of the existence of god , in the smile of a nice baby

Answer 9

THE ACTUAL PROOFS of an existence of God are:

1. Your breath. Your living breath. No one even yourself can give you life.

2. Look at the universe, the sun and moon rise. Who commands these gigantic creations to move?

3. Many things to prove that God exists.

Answer 10

Some of the world's top scientists like Sir Fred Hoyle the Nobel winning astronomer have examined the "Big Bang" origin of the Universe and concluded that the possibility of it occurring accidentally or randomly would be 1,000,000,000 to 1 against.

They have further calculated the odds against the Universe containing the exact amount of elements, force, gravity, inertia etc to expand orderly instead of flying apart or immediately collapsing back on itself at another 1,000,000,000 to 1.

Further the odds that the exact correct combination of elements could come together to create life and that any part of the Universe could be favorable for the survival of that life, another 1,000,000,000 to 1 shot.

That means that in the calculations of reputable modern scientists, the odds that some higher intelligence created this Universe is about 1,000,000,000 times 1,000,000,000 times 1,000,000,000 to one, in favor. They sound like good odds to me.

Answer 11

I strongly suggest reading the relevant excerpt from Douglas Adams' book "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy".

Basically if there was proof God existed there would be no religion, as religion is all about managing the uncertainty of why we are here.
