Yes.
Isn't is strange that when people swear they use God or Jesus? You never hear Buddha this or Shiva that. This is because there is power in the names of the true God. God knows this and warned against misusing it thousands of year ago in the ten commandments. Just something to think about.

Here's a little something I found that made me think:
Logical problem of evil
1. God exists. (premise)
2. God is omnipotent. (premise — or true by definition of the word 'God')
3. God is all-benevolent. (premise — or true by definition)
4. All-benevolent beings are opposed to all evil. (premise — or true by definition)
5. All-benevolent beings who can eliminate evil will do so immediately when they become aware of it. (premise)
6. God is opposed to all evil. (conclusion from 3 and 4)
7. God can eliminate evil completely and immediately. (conclusion from 2)
1. Whatever the end result of suffering is, God can bring it about by ways that do not include suffering. (conclusion from 2)
2. God has no reason not to eliminate evil. (conclusion from 7.1)
3. God has no reason not to act immediately. (conclusion from 5)
8. God will eliminate evil completely and immediately. (conclusion from 6, 7.2 and 7.3)
9. Evil exists, has existed, and probably will always exist. (premise)
10. Items 8 and 9 are contradictory; therefore, one or more of the premises is false: either God does not exist, or he is not both omnipotent and all-benevolent or there is an as yet unknown reason why He does not act immediately.
Omnipotence paradox
1) Either God can create a stone which He cannot lift, or He cannot create a stone which He cannot lift.
(2) If God can create a stone which He cannot lift, then He is not omnipotent (since He cannot lift the stone in question).
(3) If God cannot create a stone which He cannot lift, then He is not omnipotent (since He cannot create the stone in question).
(4) Therefore God is not omnipotent.
I personally don't know what to believe. I try believe in here and now.
And if all else fails we got CHUCK NORRIS.

Definitely not the personal God of Islam or Christianity. I'm 100% sure that such a deity doesn't, in fact couldn't exist exist.

Yes,
To think that this Earth, the Universe, our Earth being the perfect distance from the sun, water, gravity, air, animals, that all this just came from a "Big bang" from nothingness is ludicrous.
and before anyone else asks, God was not created, He had no Beginning, God has existed before time, Time itself was created by God for us as He can exist outside of the space time continuum

I don't believe in a being called 'God'.
I think that is an invention of human beings - who made god in their image (rather than the other way around).
The closest I can come to the idea of 'God' is to think of everything in the universe - and how it is all interconnected.

There has to be a God. How did we get here? The big bang? Where did that some from? Where did that come from? etc. etc. Oh, where did God come from? I don't know. If he is infinite, He wasn't made.

Yes I do! I'm not religious enough to believe in Chance, so I believe in an intelligent Creator.
