Please read my words carefully:
If you see footmark in the sand, you'll say that someone passed from here...
If you see a piece of dog sh*t on the ground, you'll say that a dog passed from here...
So what about the enormous universe, the sky, stars, planets, earth and all the beauty in it, doesn't it lead to that someone made it?!!!
Some people say that everything is created by itself after the big-bang... I won't ask you about what caused the big-bang, but I'll ask you a simple question:
If you take all the letters of the alphabet, multiples of them, and you threw them randomly on the floor. Do you expect (by a chance of one in infinity) to get a poem like shakespear's??!!
Can't you see how organized our universe is, the planets, the eco-system on earth, look even in your own body... Can you control your heart-beat? Can you control your breath while you're sleeping? Who stopped your eye-lashes from growing after reaching a certain length? Who told the baby turtles to move towards the sea and not to the earth after they come out of their eggs? Who taught the bird how to make nests?
My friend, think with your heart and brain. If you're still lost, think about the following:
Do you know how to play safe?
Your point:
If there's no God and you do all what you want in life, then nothing will happen to you after life. But if there was God and you were mistaken, then you'll blame yourself FOREVER...
Believer's point:
If there's God and I followed His commands in life, then I'll be in Heaven after life FOREVER. But if there was no God and we're mistaken, then nothing bad will happen to us after life...
Now you know how to play-safe, in case you're not convinced?

Both Yes or No answers assume a CONCEPT of God. This concept is the criteria upon which the answer is given. In other words, 1- I have an IDEA about God such as God is "X". 2- I look out at the world and see no "X" or maybe I see evidence of "X". All that we have done is validate the our CONCEPT of God. But what if our minds were so small compared to God that we can never hold God in our mind. So the question assumes that we CAN know God. The first question is then to humans have the capacity to know what to look for?

“God’s almighty wisdom is always active, and never fails. All his works of creation and providence and grace display it, and until we can see it in them we just are not seeing them straight. But we cannot recognize God’s wisdom unless we know the end for which he is working. Here many go wrong. Misunderstanding what the Bible means when it says that God is love (1 Jn 4:8-10), they think that God intends a trouble-free life for all,
irrespective of their moral and spiritual state, and hence they conclude that anything painful and upsetting (illness, accident, injury, loss of job, the suffering of a loved one) indicates either that God’s wisdom, or power, or both, have broken down, or that God, after all, does not exist. But this idea of God’s intention is a complete mistake: God’s wisdom is not, and never was, pledged to keep a fallen world happy, or to make ungodliness comfortable. Not even to Christians has he promised a trouble-free life, rather the reverse. He has other ends in view for life in this world than simply to make it easy for everyone. What is He after, then? What is His goal? What does He aim at? When He made us, His purpose was that we should love and honor Him, praising Him for the wonderfully ordered complexity and variety of His world, using it according to His will, and so enjoying both it and Him. And though we have fallen, God has not abandoned His first purpose. Still He plans that a great host of humankind should come to love and honor Him. His ultimate objective is to bring them to a state in which they please Him entirely and praise Him adequately, a state in which He is all in all to them, and He and they rejoice continually in the knowledge of each other’s love- people rejoicing in the saving love of God, set upon them from all eternity, and God rejoicing in the responsive love of people, drawn out of them by grace through the gospel.” - J.I Packer
We humans always think the way we think is supreme, Logics, Science, Philospohy, etc etc the list goes on. But aren't these all man made thoughts and practices? Do you really believe God thinks on the same level as us? Can you boast to God that you are smart? What do we humans know.. other than what we see and observe.. isn't that science? isn't that logics in essence? But I ask you again, do you really think that God's knowledge and power is comparable to humans? The answer is no. Many ask for factual evidence of God's existence.. and to that I quote the from the Word of God,
" This is an evil generation, It seeks a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah the prophet" (Luke 11:29)
" Seeing they may see and not percieve, And hearing they may hear and not understand; Lest they should turn, And their sins be forgiven them" ( Mark 4:12 )

If you believe in God then He exists. Its all about faith. Faith is believing in something with your heart when logic and common sense tell you not to. I have never seen a black hole but I believe they exist. Never been to Arizona but I am pretty sure it exists.
personally I beleive the universe is just a little too organized and precise in its mechanisms to be just a random fluke chance in the cosmic void. I do support the Big Bang Theory however, I believe it was God that caused it. I like to think that one day science may get close enough to the Lord to get just a fleeting glimpse of Him. But look people, I will believe the way I want to and you guys believe in whatever you want, whatever it is that gives you comfort. I will not put you down just because your beliefs may differ from mine.

What is your interpretation of the word 'God'?
To some it's the Creator, to others the Omniscient. Some say Ancestors, some say Aliens. Some say 3 in 1, some say 1 & 3 are the same.
So in order to answer your question, you should clarify this.

yes your question makes sense. People have been asking that very same question forever. But let me assure you GOD does indeed exist. look into a child's eyes,look at the world around you!look at all creation,do you imagine that in your wildest dreams that any of this was accidental? No, Only by the power of the all mighty did this world or YOU come to be.

I believe there is a God. Not because I read it in a book, not because a preacher or teacher told me to, not because my friends do. I believe because I have seen (among other things) a baby born and a sunset and an eagle in flight. I believe because of events in my life that I feel can only be attributed to a higher power.
Could all that be random chance? Sure. But it could also be a God in the universe. I chose to believe in God.

In the absence of evidence I make the logical choice and say I don't believe God exists.

I don't know. It's a great question, and I'd argue the ultimate question of life. Personally, I refuse to say that I know absolutely what no one else has found the answer to either.

Without a doubt, no. I can't believe that a being so powerful as to have created an entire universe can be so stupid that he can't prove his own existence.
