Yes, I do believe in God, why?

It would be weird to believe in God if he didn’t exist. I wonder why people are so sure he doesn’t exist? It’s a strange thing that throughout all of history the majority of people have believed in some kind of God and yet no one has been able to convincingly prove that he *must* exist.

Partly it’s because God is not like everything else in the world.

Normally the way we prove things is through science or logic. Science can’t apply to God because he isn’t a part of nature and science only deals with the natural world that we can see and touch. As for logic, people have tried to prove that God must logically exist (you can see summaries of such arguments here: http://www.existence-of-god.com/) but while these arguments may give you reason to believe he does exist, they don’t usually persuade people.

The Bible’s explanation of all this is that God created the world and people, but that humanity, as a group, decided not to live under God’s authority. We decided to forget God and made up our own gods. (Romans chapter 1 talks about this.) Even though most people have forgotten about the real God, people have a spiritual problem: they’re opposed to any suggestion that God should be their boss and that they owe anything to him.

So why do Christians believe in God even though they can’t see him? It’s because we’ve been convinced by reading the Bible that God is there and he is trustworthy. I can’t convince you that God exists and that he cares about you except by encouraging you to read the Bible for yourself. I suggest you try reading one of the gospels, Matthew, Mark Luke, or John because they’re all about Jesus. Jesus was the person who was able to tell us the truth about God because he’s the Son of God.

Yes I do. There is more to mankind than just life and death. I don't believe that we as humans crawled from the sea but we are here for a reason.
I do not go to church or follow a religion of any sort but I do believe in God and Jesus.

Honestly I don't know. Maybe I do, maybe not...On the first day of classes I asked God for only one thing: A TRUE FRIEND. And wow! I actually made a new friend. But that's not enough for me, I need something more. I asked God to get to know my crush better and he gave me some opportunities to do it...but I didn't use them (because I was too shy). I guess now he doesn't care anymore...and he wants to make my life miserable.

I don't know. I consider myself to be agnostic. I think that there is a possiblility that we evolved from microgranisims and that there is a possiblity that GOD created us. I was rasied in a strict southern baptist home and was forced to learn about GOD as a child. Now, I don't know one way or the other - both have explanations and scientific proof - I just plan to live my life like there was a GOD - and treat others as I would want to be treated. When I die - who knows.

I don't believe in a god of any kind.

Why?

Because the notion of religion & god is a primative one.

I don't rub sticks together to make fire either.

I know there are better means to create fire.

People who believe in god may as well rub sticks together when they want fire.

Yeah. I've read the Bible many times and the more I read it the more proof I have that He exists. I don't NEED to believe, I CHOOSE to believe. And, for the people who say that only ignorant people believe - bull. I have an IQ of 148!
