Why should GOD exist and why should he/she/it not exist?

Question

Infact i do not believe in God but if something like God eventually exixts then what would be its purpose?
The case where God does not exist, then why should it have existed?

Answer 1

god does not exist, but many people are comforted by the idea that he (she/it) does. Why would a being, with acknowledged infinite power care about us? Why would we know anything of it? Simply put, there is nothing in the god-myth to believe in. God is arcaic mental construct used to justify our guilt, indecision, pain, loss, whatever.... No, life is simpler wihout god. Basically, my answer is god should exist if you have a need for it, but shouldn't exist as a way to torment you into feeling guilty.

Answer 2

Hoo boy. This is coming from an atheist (if I spelled it correctly).

Please don't just state their opinion that God does or doesn't exist--that gets us nowhere.

I have self-confidence and believe that how I act and think is my own doing, not God's. It is easy for me to sit back and throw skepticism at any religious beliefs. I think that those who can accept the existence of a greater being have an ability to trust that I lack. There is no evidence to prove his existence, so I have no reason to flip sides. However, I would like to attend a church service once, and if it suits me, then I may become a believer.

Where did we come from? We have been randomly assembled from atoms that have bonded to form molecules that form proteins, etc. It was trial and error over billions of years, until enough molecules built up to form a living thing, which moved on to a greater life form, all the way up to humans. Learn chemistry; it will help. Can one believe religion and science?

I think that it should be personal, though, and that no one should blame another for their views.

Good question, hopefully others go into more detail than I did.

Answer 3

Well if something exists now then something had to always exist in the infinite past. I mean how could there be absolute nothingness and something come. Even Big Bang theory needs something having to exist prior.
God says he always existed he is the Alpha and the Omega which makes sense to me so His existance is not illogical but rather a good explaination after all we see logic in creation. The universe holds more and how much more so the creator. It is possible I will get a thumb down but many have no better idea either.
There cannot of been absolute nothing and something now that is illogical. Life is amazing and to make something alive and not inanimate that has thoughts, feelings, emotions, intelligence and spirituality reflects our need to recognise our creator. Some people feel their spiritual need with other things but no country on earth is atheist and religion is not something that will go away with science. It is because our spiritual need is woven in us humans and will always be there - just many people fill it in many different ways than spiritual truth but Satan is behind that. (2 Corinthians 4:4)

Answer 4

because life is just too darn complex for tehre to not be one
some believe that humans arose out of coincidences
take a clock
disassemble it
put the parts in a bag
do you believe that if you shake it long enough, a clock will come out?

thats like humans
cept theyre more complex
and the parts came from nowhere

ALSO
yes tehre are many religions
and many of them have their own different God
BUT THATS NOT THE POINT
the point is that they ALL believe in some sort of GOD or higher entity
its not the type, its that virtaully all pepole of the present and past world believe this
thus there is definitely a God

now the question remains
is the God a nice God, or a mean one?

the purpose of a God
is to give humans hope
to give life meaning
becuse if there istn
and you die
poof thats it your life = kaput no matter
but having a caring God gets ppl thru tough times, and a belief in an afterlife or nirvana helps them perservere and gives them hope for a better life, or one after this one where their achievements will do them good and be recognized

Answer 5

I'm sorry for you that you don't believe that God exists. How else would you be able to explain this marvelous planet that rotates around the sun, not too close and not too far from it?
How would you explain nature and all these animals, the wonderful workings of the human body?
God is CREATOR - that is His purpose, to create. And oh what a wonderful creation it is!

Answer 6

it is an age previous question that we would or would in no way recognize even after dying we would in no way recognize. in accordance to technology, and Athiests, He does not exist. in accordance to non secular varieties and persons with faith, He does exist. in accordance to Agnostics, He would or would possibly not exist. yet now back to the initiating, if He does exist, in keeping with possibility sooner or later he will teach himself or permit Himself ordinary to the folk, or interior the Afterlife, because of the fact the Doctrine states, while you're sturdy then you would be allowed in Heaven whilst God lives. besides the fact that if it is likewise available that there is probably not an Afterlife yet He nonetheless does exist for us to in no way recognize in any respect. Then there is likewise the theory He does not in any respect exist nor does Heaven exist, it is the Athiest concept of what God is. For myself in my opinion, i don't think of i've got faith in Heaven, as much as i might surely prefer to, there is basically not something in my suggestions which will permit me have faith that Heaven exists and there are Angels with white robes and peace for each of something of your positioned up life in the international time. besides the fact that if, I do have faith there's a God, not the God that's in pictures with the white gown, lengthy beard, halo, and each thing else, yet some style of better entity that we don't recognize approximately and would in no way recognize approximately, yet i've got faith there should be some thing accessible that's greater useful than something, some entity that throughout fact in all different words is...God.

Answer 7

Not a matter of should exist...he DOES exist.

If you believe he doesn't exist then explain how we got here. And don't say evolution from monkey's cause its only a THEORY that we came from them. There are ZERO bones and ZERO evidence actually linking us to monkeys. We have similarities only and science as said "they think" we came from this. But there is still no proof or actual fact. Yet science is so smart and we have found bones before man and after man, but none that show man coming from apes and monkeys....hmmm...interesting.

So.....where did we come from? We just POOF appear here on this planet?

Answer 8

You should read a great book called "God doesn't believe in Athiests" by Ray Comfort.
It answers your question in great detail and is a great read too. I finished reading it in 2 days and I'm not a fast reader at all. It was very informative and entertaining. It can give you a perspective that you never thought of before. It gave me a new perspective of God and I believe in Him.

Answer 9

If I cease to believe in God, then I cease to believe my existence as well...its that simple. Sooner or later, you would meet Him and I hope you try to get to know God now and find a new meaning in your life and its purpose.

Answer 10

God and religion is an opinion. Some say their is a god, and others say their isn't. To complicate the situation even more, different religions have different beliefs of their god. I think you should take a college level contemporary religion class. It is very interesting and will help you form the answer you are looking for.
