My youth,Bless up! GOD is indeed using you to ask these question. Tackle them with your questions.And when they retaliate let them know that the battle is not yours but it's the Lord.Sometimes GOD lets thing happen to us so that others will see his glory.Keep pressing on.
So false gods eh?The Bible answers your question best.
Psalms.115:2-8."Why do the nations say,where is their god? Our GOD is in heaven:he does whatever pleases him.But their idols are silver and gold,made by the hands of men.They have mouths but cannot speak,eyes but cannot see:...ears but cannot hear;noses but they cannot smell;hands but cannot feel,feet but they cannot walk;nor can they utter a sound with their throat.those who make them will be like them and all who trust in them"
Read 1Kings18:16-26.Elijah the prophet had challenged the believers of baal and the other false gods at mount carmel.
Ahab said-how long will you waver between two opinions? If the Lord is GOD,follow him,If Baal is god follow him.Elijah said...the GOD who answers by fire is GOD.
Note that Elijah was the only prophet of the Most High left.Baal had 450 prophets.Well the prophets called on the name of Baal from morning to noon and he did not answer,yet they called and danced and slashed themselves with swords and baal still did not answer.
Elijah when it was his turn ordered the people to pour water over the sacrifice and the wood.And all Elijah did was offer up a prayer unto the GOD of Abraham and said OH Lord answer me.And the fire of the Lord fell from heaven and devoured the everything.
False gods try to top that one.Ha!
God is indeed our life my youth and Fred L you told him to stop preachin to you because you dont do it to him.Well I am preaching to you like it or not and he is too.It's not we but GOD using us as a vessel for his good work.Know this when you refuse and criticize the gospel you are refusing and criticizing GOD,jehovah ok.
Calltoperseverance bless up my youth.

Well you're right that there are an awful lot of false gods out there, but how can you be sure you have the right one? Don't you think others are at least as convinced as you are that THEIR god is the right one? And before you answer, "Well I've read the bible and that's how I know," well, they've read their holy books so that's how THEY know. The bible may be convincing if that's the only holy book you've read, but the same can be said of the other holy books.
But even just restricting yourself to the xtian god, which one do you believe in? There's the Orthodox god, the Roman Catholic god, and the Protestant god. Within Protestantism you have the Baptist god, the Southern Baptist god, the Unitarian god, the Episcopalian god, the Pentecostal god, and the gods of a hundred other denominations. "Oh, but they're all the same god," you might say. Are they? If that is so then why the need for so many denominations and sub-denominations? Each church has its own interpretation of the bible, its own beliefs regarding their god's character, its own pattern of stressing some passages and morals from the bible while downplaying others, etc. Some denominations regard Jesus as lord, while others he is the son and messenger, and still others he is merely the most important of the many prophets. Some denominations primarily worship god while others primarily worship Jesus.
No doubt you, like every other believer on the planet, are convinced of the correctness of your beliefs. But sincerity and tenacity of belief is not an indicator of the correctness of belief. When you can both understand and accept this, that is the beginning of true wisdom.

If this involved a question, I think you might get a smattering of answers on Philosophy QA somewhat to your liking.
However, on Religion and Spirituality QA you'll find many who believe as you do and offer similar arguments and wisdom.
If you don't get replies here of the sort you hope for, you might try Religion and Spirituality.
Great question. Thanks for sharing it.

at first always remember that there are not gods,there is only one god.we people always give name to god,it may be jesus christ or any other.people give names according to their religion.we even canot use he or she with god because god is superior to all hes and shes.god is almighty.if you want to reach to god then you should always accept what god is doing,you should not protest.you must have the heart of child to reach to god.

This is not a question. Are you not asking a question because you are perhaps afraid of the answer?

i do believe in the Christian God; however, sounds as though you are trying to convice yourself with that little rant up there.
