Then who the hell would have created it??? And who is to say which religion is the right one???I personally think that religion is just a book to tell you whats right and whats wrong. Why would a higher being create us and watch us kill each other??? If god was real then why would he allow for such chaos??

We can't fully comprehend God's motives....
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,"
declares the LORD . "As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts. "
[Isaiah 55:8-9]

Adam and Eve wanted to rule themselves and a third of the angels thought they were right to want to do so. They basically said you don't have any right to tell them what to do. they will learn from their mistakes and do just fine. May be rough at first but they will learn. Have we?? I don't think so? We need the direction the bible gives to help us live a better life.
Think about it?
Who has a better life? This man grows up and doesn't lie, or steal, or use alcohol, or drugs or gambles or sleeps around.
He meets a girl and marries her before having sex. So he knows she will be faithful to him. Has a family and works hard and supports them. They grow old together and say I have had a happy life. Verus the man who does any and all of the above things. Usually divorces the kids hate him when they grow up.
Goes from women to women if alcohol or tobacco doesn't end his life early. He gets AIDS or some other disease.
Wouldn't are lives be better if we followed God's laws?

wow... okay. well, i believe that there is a God who revealed himself through a book. i would say that we wouldn't know that killing each other was wrong without some sort of standard to base that on. i would say that without God, everything would be just chaos (as you say it is). i don't mind chaos so much if it is working toward some end, if i know it will all work out eventually. that is what i believe. i don't believe God is completely removed and doesn't care about what's going on here, but in the same sense he gave us free will and it is playing out now. hope this answers your question!

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God" that's the beginning of God. NO one created Him because He is the creator...
NO RELIGION IS RIGHT. BUT YOUR RELATION WITH GOD IS RIGHT.
RELIGION, is just made by man.
HE did not purposedly created us to kill each other. In the first place, He created us for good, but it was man who made mistake and the ugly relationships of men (killings, murders, quarrels etc.) were just fruits or consequences of the mistakes made by man.
God allows chaos or problems to come to our lives inorder for us to remember that He is there above looking at us... because man is not satisfied, sometimes even forget God... other men even does not believe that He is there... that's why, He allows something to happen inorder for us to learn and believe...

if God is real...
then God is the beginning & the end...
God created you, me & everything else to sustain our lives
religions are all man-made...
man-made efforts to reach a higher power
you do not need a book to tell you what's right & what is wrong,
you already know it in your heart
if God is God,
then you as a created being is in no position to question why you were created & why there is chaos around you... but you were endowed with intelligence & the capacity to acquire knowledge, to use them & obtain the answers to your life questions

He didn't. My god created the world perfect. We were the ones that messed it up with our own sin. Of course, he does provide hope for those who believe in him and his son. And I'll answer your question about how God could have existed before anything, if you answer my million dollar question.
If time has always existed, how did we ever reach the present?
God Bless Ya!

If there is no God, how are those trees grow? How about the air we breathe! All religions are true but it matters whic God you believe in. I believes the eternal God who created the whole universe.

Unanswerable. Do you have an ant farm or a small pet. It isn't the same, but, God created you for His pleasure. And He is the source of goodness and blessing....so, I would think he has this all settled here on earth, we are stuck in time, waiting for it.

If God were real, I would call him up and tell him how ashamed He should be for letting the world get so screwed up in the first place.
