One of the answerers said you were an idiot for asking does God exist. Can I join you. I think both of us will have to move over because lots more people will join us too. Such a big question means you will have to work & study hard to answer it. You have the rest of your life. I think a good place to start is wrapped up in your second question. Study the universe. Study the big(stars, galaxies, galaxy superclusters, the microwave background radiation). Study the small(atoms, sub-atomic particles... quantum physics). Study the strange(dark matter, dark energy...quantum physics). Study the familiar till you find something strange about it. Study people...your strangest discoveries may be among those studies. Study till you can't believe what you've discovered. Your God answers may be right around the corner.

He might exist, however, it is possibly quite something else really from the bible text. God, is figured in modern science as a causal entity that was responsible for the first comic event. Everything after that can be explained by science. The Universe that quantifies our lives was not created by god but by physical events that took place ultimately after the first causal event.
Many inquiries into the nature of the Universe and God have realized that like the return of a mother from the fields after a leave of absence, every alteration of a state has a cause and is a cause of subsequent alterations. On a cosmic scale, the Big Bang is described as the primeval effect or mother event that sprung the universe.
What caused it? Does figuring a Maker in the mix change anything? Quite strangely, the question of the cause that sparked the big bang is quantified as the unexplained energy leading to the big bang. The second law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed. Where did the energy come from?
Quantum theory has postulated the quantification of matter from zero energy states. These states are said to exist in space warps found near black holes. But does the question of who created space sound familiar?
However there it does not stop as the existence of God would beget the question: Who created God? And likely it would not account as it could be a recursive degeneration into a Maker hell.

Approximately 80% of all people on earth believe in a god or gods. How can we reconcile this widespread belief in supernatural beings with an indisputable fact: There is not even the slightest shred of objective evidence proving the existence of alleged supernatural beings, such as a god or gods.
Every physical thing we have ever observed tends to degenerate. There is even a scientific law - the second law of thermodynamics - that states this. So whatever has always existed must be radically different from anything we have ever seen - like God, for instance.
Did 'He' create the Universe you ask? A sentient, all powerful, supernatural being created matter and anti-matter and sent it colliding into space forming all the elements, etc. etc.? It defies rationality that modern man would even think there was a god, let alone explaining all the laws of the universe as being created by god. It reminds me of CAVE MAN logic.

I believe Mr. Einstein said some of the most intelligent things on this matter:
"You will hardly find one among the profounder sort of scientific minds without a peculiar religious feeling of his own. But it is different from the religion of the naive man.
For the latter God is a being from whose care one hopes to benefit and whose punishment one fears; a sublimation of a feeling similar to that of a child for its father, a being to whom one stands to some extent in a personal relation, however deeply it may be tinged with awe.
But the scientist is possessed by the sense of universal causation. The future, to him, is every whit as necessary and determined as the past. There is nothing divine about morality, it is a purely human affair. His religious feeling takes the form of a rapturous amazement at the harmony of natural law, which reveals an intelligence of such superiority that, compared with it, all the systematic thinking and acting of human beings is an utterly insignificant reflection"
and when asked whether he believed in a god, his reply:
"I believe in Spinoza's God, Who reveals Himself in the lawful harmony of the world, not in a God Who concerns Himself with the fate and the doings of mankind"

There is order to the Universe. That had to come from somewhere, no matter what your particular beliefs are. The Laws of Science seem to apply everywhere that we can observe. As to God existing, I certainly know so, but - assuming that you do not believe. Who in blazes designed your brain? Who designed your eyeballs? Who designed your circulatory system,? Your nervous system? The list goes on and on. To think that all of these things just "happened by chance" over the course of time is pretty strange. My father ha an old analogy. Take all the pieces of an OLD watch (the old spring and wind-up kind). Put them all individually into a box and shake the box. Do the pieces by themselves form into a watch-? Doesn't it take some intelligence to take all of those individual pieces and put them together-??

Silly Rabbit, tricks are for kids...this question is one that has been around for ages, and will continue to incite both the religious and the scientific communities to great debate. There is no correct answer, just as there is no absolutely proven theory or evidence confirming or denying the existence of God, there is no absolutely proven theory of how the universe began.

of course and He did create everything. Look at the world around you, look at your life and other people lives and you will find how humans are powerless. As long as life goes on atheists and believers will keep on arguing. You feel God and you need him. And that person who said that the Big Bang created the universe..well who made the materials involved in the Big Bang. You might want to read in religions to find the one that convinces you the most because many religions have been altered and even invented by people and they can give you a wrong idea about God.

This question cannot be answered either way, and those who try only make themsleves look silly. The fact is that there is not now, and never has been, any imperical evidence for the existance of God. Those who believe do so on 'Faith'. The definition of 'Faith': Belief in the absence of evidence.

Depends on your definition of God... Typical definitions include the qualities of 'all knowing' and 'omnipotent'.
I say 'The Universe IS God'. That fits the definition, and means that everything and everyone is part of God.

I believe it was Mark Twain that said that a wise man would believe in god. If you are wrong, you have lost nothing but if you are right you have gained a lot.
