Undoubtedly, God's existence is the greatest unsolved mystery. Over the course of history, people used religion and God more as an explanation for matters they could not understand, and answers to questions that they could not answer. With time, science and research showed that things had other reasons behind them. Others have pointed to religion as a spiritual recluse, and a relationship between the individual and whom one perceives to be his Lord.
A look at ancient civilization points to a recurring cycle: people assume a certain social phenomenon to be God's will, convinced there is no other way than His. Plato wrote about virtue, and then the Bible told men how to live. As various people throughout history have claimed different things, it was possible that these were His words, but there was no guarantee.
Today, brother kills brother because of what God says, yet they are all following the same God, theoretically. The important factor was that it was the prophets' relationsh

Calling him God limits him. God is the creating force that started all that is, to name God only boxes the concept in a small parameter, The natives called the great spirit the great mystery and they are closer to defining God in this manner by accepting that there will never be total understanding in one lifetime as a human than any of the standard religions. I believe there will be a lot of surprised Christians and others upon their passing from this life.

I fele that God exists (1) Because we are here, and if we are here it is possible for there to be a heaven.
(2) The Earth and animals are too complicated and diverse to not be thought out by God.
(3) The Bible says don't kill, so wars about religion are not by God because God says don't kill. That's human kind and the devil that's creating the wars.If they followed Jesus's teachings there wouldn't be wars today at all.
(4) The Bible, Jesus, Prophets, Spirits and everything else to amazing to be just created by man.
Anyway that's my quick thoughts.

No, although we need to believe in something to keep us on the right track. If the idea of having a god will make you live a dignified life, then so be it....the idea of a god are only for people that need guidance and direction in their life. But if you are a person that is able to live an honorable life without believing in a higher being then you do not need a god.

Yes He really does. If you want to know for yourself then ask Him yourself," God if you really do exist then show me". God reveals Himself through His inspired word the Bible. Try reading this book and reflect on its content. I read a quote recently that stated ,"God broadcasts himself daily through His creation, we need only to tune in. This means that we have to slow down and turn off all of the noise in our life so that we can hear Him. The best part is that God knows everything about us and still loves us unconditionally and has a plan for our life. We have to put Him first in our life and all else will follow. Einstein put it well, " I don't believe God plays dice with the universe." May His peace be with you .

What do you think "God" is?
If your answer is that god is separate from you, like watching over you from a cloud or something, then no, god does not exist.
But if you think perhaps it is all things in all time, Including you are god, then I would say yes, certainly god exists.
Blasphemy? only if you believe in old men with long beards sitting on clouds and playing harps, which is just about as silly an idea as you can get.

I could set here and preach to you and tell ou all the reasons that i believe that God exists and all the reasons that i believe the bible and all the reasons that you should believe in God. But I am not all I can tell you is look inside yourself and find what you believe. No one can prove to you that God exsists except God.

No
And either does Santa Claus.
And neither no when you have been bad or good, so you better be good for goodness sake.
Stop believing in child-hood fairy tales and grow up.
Life is not fair ... what ever gave people the silly notion that the universe is fair?

One of my favorite T-shirts:
"God is Dead" -- Nietzche
"Nietzche is Dead"-- God
I'd bet on yes-- I think the real trick is figuring out if any of this religion stuff is legit.
