Doesn't God exist by faith? If this universe was created than it would extinguish God as a God.

Are you referring to creationism in general? Because there are more schools of thought in regards to creationism. There are 4 types of creationism: young earth, old earth, theistic evolution and neo-creationism: Plus Islamic, Jewish and Hindu creationism!
Christians assert GOD as being the absolute origin in creation - ground 0 so to speak. GOD is Creator so creation of the universe does not extinguish GOD as The GOD. Also GOD does not exist by faith. Whoever put that idea in your head was leading you around by the nose! GOD exists. You can have faith and believe that or not. Your faith does not change the existence of GOD. GOD does not need your faith, your prayers, your money or anything from you. GOD is outside of all creation and not bound by anything created such as time and space dimensions.
Chew on that for a while.

I am having trouble grasping your assertions, here. This is undoubtedly my limitation. Are you asserting:
1. A property of God is that God must not be absolutely provable.
2. If creationism were true, then God would be absolutely provable.
Therefore
3. Either creationism is false, or God does not exist. They cannot both be true simultaneously.
Why should 1 be true. That is, why should I accept that a property of god is that god is not absolutely provable? In fact, what is "absolutely proven" mean? Outside of those concepts which we hold to be absolutely necessary, what is something which is absolutely provable?
What does "exist by faith" mean? As far as I can tell, nothing "exists by faith"; something either does or does not exist and faith doesn't have anything to do with it.
As a matter of contingent fact, since creationism is false, you might be committed to god's existence.

Creationism cannot disprove God.
Creationism is a silly fairy tale which cannot prove or disprove *anything*.
@pyrocidal_maniac - You are bound by the natural law of gravity, aren't you? You cannot fly or walk through walls. If you don't ingest the proper nutrients, your body chemistry malfunctions, and you get sick or die. If you're trapped underwater, your lungs cannot extract the oxygen required for your body chemistry, and you drown. You cannot bend spoons with your mind. If you get whacked on the head hard enough, the shock wave interferes with the electochemical processes in your brain and you pass out. If you are struck with a sharp object, you get cut, in accordance with the laws of pressure. You cannot lift a bus unless you use the laws of physics to build a tool to give you leverage.
Sounds like you're *already* bound by plenty of natural laws. Whether you hate it or not.

not something provides Creationism any scientific validity. (sensible layout is roofed in the be conscious "Creationism") It promises no mechanisms. (how does God or fashion designer take place variations in the actual international) It makes no predictions. that is not falsifiable. It won't be able to be examined. So that is not technology. in case you supply a creation Scientist a examine grant, what do they do with it? so some distance, all they do is attempt to disprove evolution. yet there is no easily prevalent examine you may undertake to extra perfect comprehend creationism (different than re-examining correct holy records). finally, for people who think of the Bible is a one hundred% precise textbook of creation, purely one ingredient of clarification. adult men wrote the Bible. yet once you think in God, then God ought to have quickly created the information for evolution (fossils, DNA, and so on.). Why do you place the words of adult men above the information from God?

I don't follow your logic.
But think about this. If God created everything, do you think He would be bound to the rules of what He created? So, yes, God doesn't seem logical, but isn't that the beauty of it? I would hate to be subject to someone/something that was bound by this world's laws and standards. That includes Natural Selection.

Maybe God was just experimenting that's what all those bones are out there figured it would not work. Killed them all off and started over.

God does not exist by faith, He exists because He was, is and always will be. The uncaused cause, the unmoved mover. I AM. The Alpha and Omega who told the end from the beginning. Amen.

God is basically for those who are afraid of death and like to say they can be forgiven for bad that they do. Faith is nothing but an opinion for immunity to being told you're wrong.
