Do you believe in God?

Question

'Cos if u don't, why?
And if you do, why?

Answer 1

I didn't for a long time than this happened.
Several years ago I had an unusual experience concerning an uncle, a distant relative who lived over a thousand miles away.

While driving my car I suddenly felt the unmistakable presence of this relative that I hardly even knew. He was more like someone I had heard about than someone I knew. It was very strange; it felt as though I was momentarily lifted right out of my physical body. I seemed to be suspended somehow beyond space and time, bathed in a love so intense It felt like I could have just disappear into it at any moment if It would have let me. It only lasted for a few seconds, but it seemed to last forever at the same time. I realize how crazy this must sound. The experience was so strong that at first I was afraid I was loosing my grip on reality. I finally managed to chalk it up to an over active imagination.

Three days later I got a call from my aunt telling me that this uncle we are talking about had gone into a coma and died the day I had the experience. It felt like ice water had been poured down my back when she told me this. I had lost any real ideas of God or faith and had become somewhat of an atheist. Needless to say this experience caused me to rethink some of the conclusions I had come to.

I feel blessed to now understand that even in our darkest confusion something loves us so much that it went out of its way to assist me and bring me back to a state of absolute certainty about Gods love for us.
During the experience it seemed like there was a vast amount of information that I was somehow allowed access to. One thing that I came away from this experience understanding beyond any shadow of a doubt was that any Idea that God is unhappy with us or would judge or allow us to be punished for any reason is simply impossible.

I can’t explain the love I felt with words. They simply don’t make words big enough or complete enough to do this. The only way I can begin to convey this love to you is to say that there was simply nothing else there. Nothing but love. No hint of judgment, no displeasure of any sort. It is as though God sees us as being as perfect as we were the day we were created. It is only in our confused idea of ourselves that we seem to have changed.

I hope this is of some help to you. Good luck. Love and blessings.

Your brother don

Answer 2

Yes I do.
Why: because there are signs of a creator in everything that you see. Even the greatest Scientists have said that there had to be a God to set thing in motion IE the big bang, as it all has a pattern & a design and the deeper they investigate the more of the design they see.
Even Charles Darwin said that there was a God after he formed the Theory of Evolution, and that is something that the people & scientists that stand & support Darwin's theory do not like & are these days trying to disprove.
Mind no one can prover that there is a God or there is not a God and its up to the individual to decide in what they believe.

Answer 3

Yes! and I think is best for my self to believed, as to don't believed, because if he exist, and HIM is real, I don't lost any thing?, that if I don't believed, and if he exist, I may have already loose something. In fact its a lot more comfortable to believed than don't been a believer. <

Answer 4

Not very much so. There is no logical prof that he exsists. I believe there had to be someone out there. But not the capital G god that everyone believes in. BTW if god is aoo almighty and powerful why cant he help people find a cure for cancer or help people in need from commiting suicide? i know we brought it on ourselves but if he loves us so much why cant he help us and show his love. Notice God never returns your prayers, you just think he did. Its all in your mind. The only people saying the believe in God are the people saying i was brought up in a religion. so bascily you were forced to believe in God and know nothing else?

Answer 5

Nope

There is no evidence that there is a god. No evidence essentially means that someone made it up. It isn't rational or reasonable to believe in things without any evidence to back it up. You would be stuck with hundreds of thousands of gods and everything else that human imagination could come up with since they all have the same evidence.

Not believing in god is the same as not believing in Odin, Zeus, Ra, Hera, Bacchus, The Great Spirit, Osiris, The Flying Spaghetti Monster and all the others. I would be no less surprised of evidence of Odin was found than I would be if evidence of your god was.

Answer 6

Non-practicing agnosticism—the view that there is no proof of either the existence or nonexistence of God(s), and that it's meaningless to care...
I have no proof one way or another so i keep an open mind ...

I am Agnostic

Answer 7

Well, I must say I’m relieved to know that have finally recognised and acknowledged your new state of being. The state I refer to, of course, is that you are now dead. Well done!
As always, like all the rest. YOU HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS: QUELL SURPRISE! Try and relax, and when you feel you are ready, I will answer as many as I find necessary and as frankly as possible.
For now don’t concern yourself with ‘LIGHT’ or ‘DARKNESS’, believe me its not worth it. And it’s the least of your worries.
Oh, one last thing, I've seen the new David Lynch film, and you are better off dead.

Yes. It has 2 reasons:
