Why does or why does not god exist?

Answer 1

NO ONE can ever prove to you whether god exists or not> Yet, we have clues of his existence> Jesus Christ revealed God to the world> lifeformes especially humans are way to complex therefore we were "created"

Answer 2

Nothing has never existed and never will. Something can never come from nothing (there is no possibility in nothing), therefore, something has always existed. Similarily, something and nothing cannot co-exist, for one would have to contain the other, which is impossible (i.e., how could dimensionless nothing contain a three dimensional object?. That thing which has always existed must be infinite; it cannot have an edge, i.e., a border with nothingness (something and nothing cannot co-exist). This infinite thing would also have to be singular in nature - there could not be two of these infinite things, because then neither thing would be infinite. So, this thing which has always existed must be (a) infinite and (b) singular.

There are only two candidates I can think of that possess these attributes: god (in theory) and space. Space is singular (there is only one space - think about it) and logically must be infinite (i.e., if you go to the edge of space and then go ten feet further, where would you be? Would you smack into a wall of nothing?)

What is more logical as a candidate for this thing that has always existed of its own accord: the most complex thing imaginable (god) or the simplest thing observable (space)?

Science will soon discover that everything is made of space interacting with itself, and no one will question the idea of space having existed forever (it will be the defacto foundation of all existence - the thing from which all other things are derived). The big bang will be seen as a local occurance, and just another instance of space interacting with itself (i.e., this collection of matter and energy we call the universe is but one of an infinite number of such occurances in the infinite expanse of space). All energy will be seen as a condensation as space, and all matter as simply different densities of energy.

In such an equation there is no need nor room for a god or gods as creator of all things, though it does open up the certain possibility that in an infinite expanse of time and space other intelligent beings were produced by the same process we were and are far enough ahead of us to be considered gods relative to us. What I have just described is the Hindu religion in modern terms...

Answer 3

I have asked myself this question time and again and I have found no answer or at most partial answers. But one man enlightened me by putting forth a more essential issue than this: Heidegger helped me view the issue from another point of view.
What is the use of knowing the answer to this question? He says nothing and I agree, it wont change anything at all. Lets ask a better one: What do we do in this universe? Think this is more useful and easier to answer.
Philosophically NO ONE can answer your question buddy because we are like fish in the sea and God (if he exists) is outside the sea. We can never see the universe, of which we are a part, from a vantage point.
So, all I can say is I am an agnostic; no less no more.

Answer 4

You would think that the force of religion would be to prove that God exists.

Answer 5

He exists in people's minds. Belief is the most powerful tool any charismatic leader can use. What caused nearly every war in history?
I know it doesn't answer the question well. Just some food for thought.

Answer 6

God exists because God is Love.We all love the Love.

Answer 7

Why do you exist. Can you make things here. Are you creative. Imagine that everybody knew they were creative and understood that amongst earth's entire population. We now have a concept of one body. The brotherhood of man.

Answer 8

I believe that God exists, but he hasn't returned any of my phone calls or text messages lately...

Although that sunset he had going last night was mighty beautiful.

Answer 9

We don't really need 'God' to explain anything ... it is just that without this concept of 'God' it would be a frightening world for the fable minded. They need some fake hope to help them get through ... 'God', 'Allah' or whatever it is, it works for them!

Answer 10

he exists , look around you , see the earth and all its beauty , it has an artist it's god. look at your body and how it all works , designed by someone , ya once again its god!
