Answer 2

Allah does exist and here is why...of all the planets in our solar system why is the earth the only one habitable?

Why were the dinosaurs, who would have kept man from evolving, killed by a meteor/comet?

Why haven't we been hit by a world killing comet since?

Why do we have just enough EMF to prevent solar destruction of our atmosphere?

Why are we so much different than any other specie on earth? The world would still get along just fine if man was never created.

Why then are we here?

Everything is done for a reason and Allah knows this reason, because we are his creation.

Answer 3

God is very much Alive. Here is why: before man have the technologies to study the earth. Many people in the past including Christopher Columbus believed that the earth is flat. Guess what? Before Columbus discovered North America in 1492 C.E. or A.D. God had already revealed to a man name Job about the earth is hanging upon nothing in the year of 1657 B.C.E. or B.C. That's roughly 3,158 years before Columbus landed in North America.

Job 26:7  "He is stretching out the north over the empty place,
Hanging the earth upon nothing..."

Answer 4

Yes, I believe in God for many reasons, but one of them is that I am an engineer and a scientist. I know how difficult it is for us humans (as smart as we are) to design, optimize, manufacture, and test a machine. Or to write, debug and test a computer program. So it seems to me that someone had to have designed all of the countless species of animals on earth, which are far more complex and far better adapted than any machine we have ever made.

There is also a theory in science known as the 2nd law of thermodynamics. It is a proven law which no one disputes. The 2nd law of thermodynamics says that order cannot just appear out of disorder. For example, your room will never get cleaner if you left it alone, but it will get messier. Or if you randomely throw your laundry on the floor, it will not land in nice catagorized piles, with socks on one side, shirts here, and pants over there, all neatly folded. To say that life began when a bunch of molecules got together and just happened to form a living cell, is to violate the 2nd law of thermodynamics. cells are so complex that we humans have not been able to create one from scratch, even though we have been to the moon, created atomic weapons, airplanes, and computers.

Answer 5

How does one reconcile omnipotence, omnibenevolence and omniscience with this world and the life on it. And, why are there so many billions of people living in entire, huge countries whose culture has nothing remotely like the xian god and jesus. Here is a post I did before on the topic:

Because I look at what life was like for human beings for the past 40,000 years (maybe 6,000 for you). People lived for an average of 30-40 years. More than 50% of children died before age one (until about 100 years ago!). I look at thousands of children permanently blinded by parasites they get from playing in creeks in underdeveloped countries.

Then I look at children of modern developed countries, of any religion. I see that they live until their EIGHTIES!! Have all their teeth for a very long time. Have excellent health, etc... And I see that this has nothing to do with religion or god. It is medicine and science. So was it god's plan that hundreds of generations of people would suffer and die in their 40's and suddenly in the 19th and 20th century, everything would get better?

That's nothing other than sadistic.

I also look at all the different gods and interpretations of these gods for the past 4,000-5,000 years. I see how silly it is to point to one religion in the roman era and say "Ah, THIS is the correct one!"

I also posted this in answer to that question:
* The bible has many contradictions
* The bible shows the OT god to be violent and bloodthirsty. He also kills thousands of children.
* For thousands of years, man has had a lifespan of 30-40 years. 100 years ago in the US, 50% of children died before age 1. Modern medicine has greatly reduced this. During eras in western history when the catholic church was in charge and belief in god and church attendance was required, this did not change. So prayer seems not to have been the answer.
* The history of religions and gods seems to show that man has no consistent image or view of what god is or does.
* The bible is open enough to interpretation that if you walked into a church and asked 3 people questions about the bible or god's will, you would get probably 8 different answers.
* People kill each other in god's name every day and he apparently does nothing to stop it.
* 50% of conceptions do not result in birth
* 1 in 8 pregnancies result in twins and one twin is eventually reabsorbed.
* Children are born with no brains, with no limbs, retarded, blind.
* Children go blind from parasites every day, children suffer asthma, and other diseases

Answer 6

That there is a sky daddy up there that gives a damn about you is the silliest idea ever. You really are not that important. To think this it would have to be pounded into your head over and over as a child, which I suspect happened after reading your question and details, details, ad nauseum
...

Answer 7

Absolutely. I've studied the evidence on both sides of this issue and listened to the arguements. The only intelligent, reasonable solution was that there is indeed a God

Answer 8

Yes, there is. He's worked in my life, He's talked to me, we have a relationship. I was not brainwashed into believing what I believe. I found it because He put it in my path & I followed the trail. In my house, my religion is even discouraged. ((Yes, I'm a kid.)) But God's Will is stronger than madmade restraints.

Answer 9

Yes, I believe there is a God. He is the Creator and Maker of the Universe. I love Him and He loves me. He is with me every moment of the day....I have no reason to doubt Him.

Answer 10

No because there is no evidence.

Of course, I just sent you an e-mail about your alleged evidence for your god's existence, so I'll see what you have to say.
