I don't.
I'm glad I don't, it means I can think for myself.

Whether I am using God as a crutch or not is irrelevant. Let's just suppose, for arguments sake, that I am weak and I can't handle life and I need a crutch to hang on to, so I end up believing in God. Does that mean that God doesn't exist? That's totally irrelevant. Let's look at the evidence.
Anybody who says there is no God is just not thinking straight In your brain there are 100 billion neurons. Each one of those neurons(remember, there's 100 billion of them) is connected to 1000 other neurons. That comes out to 100 trillion connections in your brain. These connections send electronic signals(and you can measure the electricity) from one place to another. If part of the brain is damaged and you lose some function that is controlled by that part of the brain, the brain can actually re-wire itself and let other neurons in the undamaged part of the brain take over so that you can get back that function. That's only the connections in the brain, not the rest of the body.
Our bodies also have tons of information in the DNA. You have enough information in your DNA to fill encyclopedia sized books stacked from here to the moon and back 500 times. The information storage capacity of DNA is far superior to any computer that humans have ever built. DNA can hold more information in a fifth of a teaspoon than a trillion CD’s. Do you really think that came about by just random chance........kind of like a monkey typing out the works of Shakespear just by randomly plucking away at the keys?
You need to step back and look at the big picture of what is being claimed by evolution, namely, that the unbelieveable complexity of the human brain(not to mention the rest of the body) is nothing more than re-arranged pond scum. It’s pond scum from the original prebiotic soup re-arranged over billions of years into 100 trillion connections in the brain by luck…..just random chance.
The universe obeys certain rules-----laws to which all things must adhere. These laws are precise and many of them are mathematical in nature. Natural laws are hierarchical in nature; secondary laws of nature are based upon primary laws of nature, which have to be just exactly right in order for our universe to be possible. There are one billion trillion stars in the universe. Not 1 trillion, not 10 trillion, not 100 trillion but 1 billion trillion stars. Yet there are great distances between each star. The closest star to our sun is proxima centauri. It is 4 light years from our sun or nearly 6 quadrillion miles. Yet this unbelieveably large universe operates with such perfect order that we can predict the very day and the hour and minute that we’re going to have an ecclipse 1000 years from now. There are constants(gravitational and cosmological and others) in our universe which must be exact within infinitesmal parameters in order for life to exist(that’s called the anthropic principle). But, where did these laws and constants and great order come from and why do they exist? If the universe were merely the accidental by-product of a big bang, then why should it obey orderly principles----or any principles at all for that matter? Since when does order come out of an explosion? Chaos comes out of an explosion. By the way, what, exactly, did explode? There was no matter there to explode before the big bang since the big bang is the start of all matter and energy as well as the 4 dimensions(3 dimensions of space and one dimention of time). The atheist cannot account for these laws of nature(even though he agrees that they must exist), for such laws are inconsistent with naturalism. Yet, they are perfectly consistent with the bible. We expect the universe to be organized in a logical, orderly fashion and to obey uniform laws because the universe has a creator God who is logical and has imposed order on His universe(Genesis 1:1).

Yes, I believe in God. I believe that everything, the entire universe just didn't appear. There has to be a cause to have an effect. The cause is a Higher Being.

I have believed in God all my life; I cannot imagine a life without my Lord and Savior, J. C.
BTW, everyone is not a child of God; you must be "born" into his kingdom. If you haven't been born again, you're not a child of God. You have to come to a place in your life, where you are very sorry for sinning against God and his word. So sorry that you repent of the sins, and with God's help, you change. You invite Jesus into your heart. He doesn't come in unless you invite him.

I believe in god, and i also believe that your future is in your own hands. Anyone who believes that the way to change their life is to beg god is simply mistaken and very confused. That's not how it works. Being that you see it that way would explain why you don't believe in god.

No doubt every body possess the Self within, which directs the life of each individual. Some call it as Atma, and some other as God. God is in you, around you, above you and He is You. That is the paradox of life.

I believe in God, and I also believe in self-improvement and hard work. Religious belief does not negate personal responsibility.

yes, i believe in GOD,
it`s o.k. even if you don`t, i don`t mind and nor i dis-respect...
you are right, "the force is you" but that force is only limited to the
"physical act"
(you have the force for anthing which comes under physical act..
you can walk with your legs, see with your eyes, can drive a car,
can hurt any-one, can do all the act using your physical body and
utilising any physical objects.) and
"imaginary act"
(you can think/imagine any thing with your brain/mind)
that`s all,
you can check and confirm by your-self, your force can not do
any thing.. anything at all except "physical and imaginary act"
if you can do any-thing out-side that two act... then
find just one... just one thing at all...
believe you me,
there is nothing exect that two things, one can do...
again, believe you me,
there do exist a power inside all of us,
capable of doing that exception things....anything at all,
is the real power... the power of soul and
what is this soul... a fraction of ... which you don`t believe..
it`s again o.k., if you don`t,
i still do respect you,
it`s really o.k.

I believe in God. I can feel him in my heart. He gave us wisdom to make choices in our lives. It's up to us as to how we live our lives. I feel great comfort in knowing I can turn to him for guidance along the way. I also try to thank him for the wonders in my life, My hubby of 34 years, my son, and my grandson. When I look at the beauty of nature that surrounds me, it's amazing.
