because i seriously doubt god made us and gave us a free will to do whatever, and then has certain rules he wants us to find out and abide by (even with no proof of gods existence), and then after we die we have to face a judgement on rules we weren't even sure about. if it is real, it sounds like a really sick joke, and shame on god if that is the case. thats not very nice of god to do that to people.

Personally I dont belive in god, how can you explain all the fosil and animals we have found? and how can some one be so stupid to give free will just so he can judge you later one?
and well if god exist where is heaven because Iam sure is not up on the sky, for me the religions where just made up as a form of control, and as the result of fear to nature, and the search for answers that b4 we couldn't resolve

No, because if it did exist, don't you think it should have been proved to all of us by now. The only people that claimed to have seen (or heard) god were the ones living in desert ages ago. Why just there and why so long ago? I believe it was fata morgana :-). Maybe because it is easy to prove them wrong today. Even in the past, voice, picture and all usually happens in the cave (when there is no one else in the area). Whole religion thing is ridicules. It has been made in the old days just to control the people. Today, people believe because they want to believe and it is much easier to live life believing. Believers can always just say that it was god will, when they can not explain something, they mention god and so on.

Yes I believe in there is a god but if no one else wants to believe it then they dont have to. THere's alot of debate about creationism Vs. Evolutionism but i say why cant we have both? supposedly the earth was created from the big bang. Okay in genesis what did got say? "Let there be light" why cant that have been the big bang. In the book of Job they talk about HUGE monsters walking the earth. That could have been dinosaurs. I think its both. I think God gave every creature the power to evolve and I think that God made Adam and Eve the first people to walk on the earth. No one knows for sure but I have faith and that is what christianity is based on.

Job 38
The LORD Speaks
1 Then the LORD answered Job out of the storm. He said:
2 "Who is this that darkens my counsel
with words without knowledge?
3 Brace yourself like a man;
I will question you,
and you shall answer me.
4 "Where were you when I laid the earth's foundation?
Tell me, if you understand.
5 Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know!
Who stretched a measuring line across it?
6 On what were its footings set,
or who laid its cornerstone-
7 while the morning stars sang together
and all the angels shouted for joy?
8 "Who shut up the sea behind doors
when it burst forth from the womb,
9 when I made the clouds its garment
and wrapped it in thick darkness,
10 when I fixed limits for it
and set its doors and bars in place,
11 when I said, 'This far you may come and no farther;
here is where your proud waves halt'?
12 "Have you ever given orders to the morning,
or shown the dawn its place,
13 that it might take the earth by the edges
and shake the wicked out of it?
14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal;
its features stand out like those of a garment.
15 The wicked are denied their light,
and their upraised arm is broken.

We are judged by what we hear and what we do with what we hear. If we hear about God and see his creation and deny him then we are responsible to him, whether we believe in him or not. He is the creator and if mortal man doesn't like the fact that there is a God that doesn't change the fact one bit. We have reason to turn to him because we know how fallible and easily lead by evil we all are. None of us can say that we are good enough to stand before God, and if God is holy then no one who is honest can say that they don't deserve hell. God made a way for us to come to him through the shed blood of the Lamb of God and if we hear him and repent then we have no need to think negatively of judgment.

If god does exist, he is certainly under no obligation to explain himself or his ways to us. If we feel he has condescended to do so, then we should be grateful and awed; but faith is such an intensely personal and subjective experience, the truth of which is not verifiable by independent means. I would never have the temerity to ridicule believers, or freethinkers --because true belief, however misguided it may be, is never something to be laughed at. The implications are always too serious, and strike at the very heart of a person's identity.

No, I don't think that God exists, I KNOW God exists. It's not God's fault that you didn't look up the rules. You have the knowledge to find all the answers you are looking for if you will just read God's word, The Holy Bible.
Don't blame your failure to do so on God. It's your fault, not His.

It is by faith that one comes to know if God is real or not. There is much existence about Jesus, you can go on line to discovery and they will have some info there to share concerning the existence of Jesus, because I have seen the documentary on the life of Jesus. Give it a try.

You have free will? Neat.
Rules? Nahhhhh, more like suggestions.
Judgement? We judge ourselves and when you pass, you'll pass a final judgement. If you're happy with self, then your in heaven. If not, well it's too late to fix it, and it would have been so easy, and isn't that the worse kind of hell?

Let me ask you this question. Have you ever heard of FAITH. Because FAITH is what it takes for you to U-N-D-E-R-S-T-A-N-D what you ask of your question. "Faith comes from understanding and understanding by the WORD OF GOD". The Holy Bible. The "INSPIRED" (By The Holy Spirit) Word of God. God's manual for living. God sent His Holy Spirit down to dwell within men who had the DESIRE to hear (called by God) and to understand through the knowledge and the visions that the Holy spirit gave them. God was indeed making sure (like any real Father would) Mankind (His creatures) would be able to live accordingly to the set Laws, Statutes and decrees which He laid down for us, on the governing for our lives on this earth. The only way you'll know for sure if there is real God is to SINCERELY accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior into your life. Then you will REALIZE that God is REAL and He's watching EVERYTHING you do. WOW!!
