Answer 1

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?
Non-believer's case:
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 case:
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?

Answer 2

Gods works are in front of us all the time and miracles are happening everywhere. You may not see them and you may be so used to miracles that you think they are coinsedences. Sometimes if you walk the way the world walks you loose sight in the good of what God does. I used to be the same way. I thought being saved had something to do with getting wet. Even when my husband got me baptized I thought ok I'm going to get a revelation. I stayed underwater for a while and nothing happened I was dissapointed. The revelation of being saved comes with study and following Jesus's examples of how to live a just life. The Bible gives us all the tools to save ourselves in any situation. God wants us to be poactive in the miracles he works. Example my husband was out of a job and our daughter needed heart surgery. We had no moeny, no job, no way to pay for the surgery. We had two cars and were not even qualified to get her on medicaid. We kept working and finally we were able to get her surgery paid for. We should have lost our house during this time, but we didn't, we should have not been able to feed ourselves, but we had enough to get by. In three days after the surgery our daughter was smiling again and I thought I would never see her do that again. So miracles are happening everywhere you just got to know where to look. God can not show the world all the miracles if the world does not believe they exsist.

Wow, I seem to recall this big wave a few years ago that tore apart a nation, and affected the entire world.
But I guess no one has made any additions to the bible lately in the interest of "purity"
eh - I know the point you are trying to make. I'm just playing the devils advocate.

Answer 4

Your question assumes the existence of God, because you use the word in the part of your sentence that challenges His /Her/Its existence. I am a believer, though not a religious believer. God is not a grand old man in the sky, nor any kind of being that we can comprehend (by definition) who thinks and sees things the way we do. For me, the concept of God is a great unknowable, mysterious something that is present in all of existence, all of life, all of awareness, all of wondering, all of being. If you step back and just look at the miracle inherent in the mere existence of the universe (never mind in the miracle of living things, or life) it brings you an overwhelming feeling of awe. For me, whatever is behind that, or in it - that's God. As for making God responsible for what I do with my gift of existence and life... that's like making the giver of a gift to you responsible for your choosing to break it or to treat it well.

Answer 5

The human race is far better educated these days and we are far less gullible.
We do tend to question more before we believe what is written or even seen.
All that archaic fairy-story stuff wouldn't last a few seconds in the 21st century and that is where we are, folks! Why do religious folk persist in behaving as if they are in ancient times?
Odd isn't it?
Sad, in fact.

God is imaginary and does not exist, exactly the same as all previously-imagined gods and goddesses. Why is that so difficult for modern-day humans to grasp?
Answer: Childhood indoctrination allows the myth to perpetuate.

Answer 6

You sure got a lot of wrong answers. Looks like the brain-washed are out in force this evening.

The fact is, god does not exist. No god, no miracles. In fact, there never has been a miracle. Ever. Just a lot of made-up stories put in a book that people somehow think is real. It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.

Answer 7

Well a friend of mine was about to get laid off and out of the blue some other company called him up and offered him a better job. All within hours. I see God in that.

Answer 8

Have you not seen a sunset then? Have you not witnessed the miracle of a child taking it's first breath? If you are waiting for God to prove to you that He exists because you think He should perhaps you don't understand God at all. He doesn't need you, you need Him

Answer 9

That's right, read the Bible where you can find the answer that is very clear to your question. What God is doing in this present age and what God is going to do in the future is clearly mentioned

word by word happening now, some one should have th eyes to see, and ears to hear Thats all.

Answer 10

Because people are already superficial and looking to God for the wrong reasons. There are miracles that happen everyday but not on such large scales like the bible speaks of. God doesnt do that stuff now because we do have drs and things back then they didnt. God moved moutains becuz there were no demolition trucks. And he split the red sea becuz there was no bridge to cross it. God expects us to use our minds and do things ourselves and he concentrates on the things that we cant do ourselves like fixing the evil hearts of men. But even if Jesus or God did come today be serious no one would believe with all the special affects and things and people would try to kill him today jus like they did thousands of years ago. You have to seek God for yourself not expect him to put on a magic show and prove himself to you, becuz if thats what u want u will be disappointed. Why does a God have to prove himself to people? Should a parent have to prove himself to his son or daughter? But if you look for him, who he really is........he will show himself to you not prove himself to you.
