is there really such being as God?

Answer 1

I am not smart enough and do not have enough information to rule out the existence of some all powerful being. However, I can rule out the god of the bible as being god by using simple logic. Thank you.

Answer 2

No.


Nobody can prove any gods, much less a specific god, exist; many people will tell you their god exists but no others, but will never be able to prove it, even if they think so. Some will threaten you with eternal pain or promise eternal joy to get you to believe in their god; these are all stories, created for people who were scared long before we understood the universe. Now we have no more reason for these superstitions.

Answer 3

Monotheism is the true belief in the God of Abraham which is why Jews and Muslims do not believe in the Trinity.

"The three-in-one/one-in-three mystery of Father, Son and Holy Ghost made tritheism official. The subsequent almost-deification of the Virgin Mary made it quatrotheism . . . Finally, cart-loads of saints raised to quarter-deification turned Christianity into plain old-fashioned polytheism. By the time of the Crusades, it was the most polytheistic religion to ever have existed, with the possible exception of Hinduism.

This untenable contradiction between the assertion of monotheism and the reality of polytheism was dealt with by accusing other religions of the Christian fault.

The Church - Catholic and later Protestant - turned aggressively on the two most clearly monotheistic religions in view - Judaism and Islam - and persecuted them as heathen or pagan.

The external history of Christianity consists largely of accusations that other religions rely on the worship of more than one god and therefore not the true God.

These pagans (JEWS AND MUSLIMS) must therefore be converted, conquered and/or killed for their own good in order that they benefit from the singularity of the Holy Trinity, plus appendages."

-- The Doubter's Companion (John Ralston Saul)


Polytheism is the concept that God can be three separate entities at one and the same time.
1) Jesus
2) Holy Ghost in the form of a Dove
3) God Above

You can blaspheme the son but not the Ghost
The Father knows the last hour but the son doesn’t.

Answer 4

Yes because there is no way that the intricacies of this universe can have have just come into existence without some higher wisdom at the source. It just doesnt seem logical to believe Man, nature and planets could have simply appeared one day without it being the will of a creator.

Answer 5

No one knows for sure. That's the only reason why I classify myself as agnostic and not atheist. Because while you can't prove god, you can't disprove it either.
