That is a question to ask yourself. Your faith isn't based on what other people think. Seek it for yourself.

No. Some religions worship many gods, some a single god, and they are all mutually exclusive. I can sort of imagine worshipping the sun or the spirit of a lake or mountain, but a god in the theistic mode is not believeable.
If you have a being who is all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-loving, then this god would make a world without evil and pain. And don't give me any garbage about free will - if god created us so we would chose evil over good, then he created us knowing that there was a design defect someplace, but he didn't care enough to correct it. Any god malicious enough to create a highly contagious virus (rubella) that will infect an unborn child and make that child born blind and retarded would be an object of contempt and hatred if he existed.
Nope, he's just not there. Never has been.

According to Christians there is, their God is the only true God!
According to Muslims there is, their God is the only true God!
There are more Muslims in the world than Christians so does that mean that their God is the one to believe in?
Raelians believe that there is no God, they believe that scientists from another world came to Earth, it was these scientists that were mistaken for Gods that created all of the major religions in the world.
I don't believe in God, as to believe in a supernatural God seems just daft. This is an ancient belief and we now live in a world of science, we should now know that there is no God, 'the mystery of God should be finished' revelations 10:7.
It actually says in the Bible we shouldn't believe in a God anymore! see last paragraph.
Anyway i hope you find out.
Love
Jules :)

Yes, and I pray you find HIm. The only true God is the God of the Bible that teaches the teachings of Jesus Christ. We must love Him enough to obey Him or we will be lost.
I just encourage everyone to get a Bible, get in study, and pray, and find out for yourselves. Get grounded in Gods work. It all fits together, little by little. sometimes it will seem to contradict each other, but it doesnt. The Bible is like a huge puzzle, fitting together little pieces at a time, that all go together to form a big picture of the plan God has for us. Its beautiful, and well worth all it takes to study. Find out for yourse.f. Let noone keep you from God.

Nobody can prove any gods, much less a specific god, exist; many people will tell you their god exists but no others, but will never be able to prove it, even if they think so. Some will threaten you with eternal pain or promise eternal joy to get you to believe in their god; these are all stories, created for people who were scared long before we understood the universe. Now we have no more reason for these superstitions.

Yes. He loves you more than you can imagine! He wants you to believe in Him! Look at the wonderful people who believe in God: Pope John Paul II, Mother Teresa, etc. God loves you, girl! Believe in Him! Pray to Him! He wants you to want Him! God be with you (by the way, He always is)!

Your reason for asking could only mean that you are 'searching'. Searching for the meaning of life; searching for the real purpose of why you are here; or searching for the TRUTH; YES, there is a God- and He is ever-waiting for you to come to Him.

I believe there is a God. The question is DO YOU? Its a matter of faith, not 'majority rules'.

Yes there is a God. we have to experience God for our selves, which I have many of times, and I would not trade him for nothing. If you are serious with this question, please get to know him for yourself. For you I am praying.

I certainly believe there is a god. I also believe that religion makes him cry.
