Have at it meaning give arguments, convince me on way or another.

Hmmmm. I am asking to hear anyone's proofs, not because I don't already believe one way or another. I am a philosopher. This is what I do, haha. Not that swaying me is impossible, it's just highly unlikely :)

I am curious! Look forward to your answers.

For non-existence to become existence a "cause" is needed.

We all were non-existence before we were born but we came into existence "because" our parents existed. The same is true with our parents and their parents.

It can be proved mathematically that : " There exists a cause that is un-caused and unique." This cause is what is at the origin of all things.

The proof of this theorem belongs to Avicenna, persian philosopher, mathematician, doctor and astronomer of the 11th century.

We can name this cause the Creator of the universe if the word God bothers us too much.

All of creation is a testimonial to the presence and existence of God. Beauty is not an accident of evolution or time, such as a sunset or sunrise, ocean waves, grasses blowing in the wind, a flock of birds or school of fish in perfect harmony, or a bud opening into a beautiful flower. All beautiful things don’t exist by accident or for itself, as if they were entities, but are present for man’s benefit and pleasure and to show man the wonder of God and His idea. Emotion and love are not the offspring (children) of the big bang theory. True love is because God is. Beauty, love, and harmony, etc., are spiritual, as God is Spirit. The evidence is overwhelming that not only validates God’s existence, but annihilates any other theory of creation and being, including the existence of a substance that could be non-spiritual, which leads to much confusion of thought.

This is the way I see it. I would rather believe in God and live out my life according to His Word and find out that there isn't a God, because than I would have lived a good and honest life. I would regret living my life to my own standards and disdain to die and have there be a God who wouldn't want to even look upon me.

The thing is, only you can answer that question and no one can answer it for you. My philiosophy professor said that questions such as those can't be answered in just one sitting. The questions in philiosophy is a continous process. You can only answer it if you live life and see for yourself.

A person who believes that God really exist shouldn't say, I saw God or something... A person with this belief can be seen through his/ her everyday livin. Since he believes of a higher power and life after death, then he is careful of his actions, not doing sin and praying for he believes that God will judge him when the time comes.

on the other hand, a person who doesn't believe in God's existence can be carefree and ddladx, not taking note of his actions and can have superiority and narcisictic tendencies. He doesn't fear anything because for him, there is no greater power.

So there you go, no one can have a straight answer for that. You can only answer philosophical questions by living your life and making the best out of it; applying your beliefs... :)

Keep in mind that God will exist, or not exist, without regard to the various answers to your inquiry, and regardless of your agreement/disagreement therewith. That said, amuse yourself.

Walk outside and wonder at the order and complexity of the world...or just study the human body. Great design demands a great designer!!!! I still find it hard to believe many think that this world and its wonders are a random accident.

Give a monkey a typewriter and see if he types out a Websters dictionary... Better yet blow up a timex factory and see how many watches fall out of the sky. Both of these examples are far less complex that the human body, and yet no one would expect watches or dictionaries to appear... Just my rant thxs

God is an article of faith. By trying to prove his existence you immediately undercut belief.

There is no way to prove or disprove the existence of god. Only you can decide whether or not you believe.

Naah can't convince you. Nor can God. Nor can anyone.
God exists for you only if you find him. Can't find him for you. He's too immense. Try to prove he's there and He'll hide.
Prove nothing - Accept - Faith - Feel.
If someone convinces you there is a God then the convincer is God. Just do it by being who you are and He'll come by suddenly and you will Realize him. That's what it's like. If He disappears suddenly, your thoughts have gone to different level. He's not MATHEMATICS to be proved. He's there to be felt like folks who make us feel good even though we may not ever see or hear of them who make our lives lovelier with their lives their products their words that pass through many minds which finally come to us. Is there a God? If you are proved to be without a God I suggest you hurry up and invent him. There's a lot of joy in believing and unlimited limitations if you don't.
NoProofNecessary. For me I find Him every day.

I believe with all of my heart that God exists. When you have faith you don't need "proof". You feel God working in your life and THAT is the proof. I wish that for you. In the end it is each person's choice and everyone makes their own. No one should argue it really. Everyone has a right to believe what they want. I guess all you can really do is read the Bible with an open mind and then decide. No one on this board can do that for you. God Bless.
