Nope. As an atheist, I just believe in ONE LESS god than Christians do. Obviously, it's not a big deal.

Yes I do!

The Bible talks about many many things.

But:
ALL history information in the Bible is true.
ALL science information in the Bible is true.

The Bible says there was a flood. And we see lots of proof. Like people find whales in the mountains!

The Bible says Jonah got swallowed by a big fish and three days later the fish spat him out.

Real people have been in a whale's stomach and survived!

Lots of evidence is found,

We can tell there really is a God because of

Creation (newsflash there's no such thing as a big bang)
Conscience (you wrong from right don't you)
Commandments (the ten commandments are written in your heart)
Christ (Jesus Christ died for you! So you can go to Heaven)
Christians (Christians are to be the light of the world)


I dare every one to check this out!!!
These are verses in the Bible that talk about newly made discoveries about Earth and they were in the Bible 2000 years before! Coincidence? I think NOT.

Yes! I absolutely believe in God! And for those who feel the need to have evidence that God is real do not know the definition of faith.

The thing is we all live on faith everyday. You have faith that when you drive over a bridge for example, you'll be able to get across without incedent. We all do. By doing that you are putting faith into someone you've never met and never saw (the people who built it). That's how I feel about God. Just because I can't physically see him doesn't mean he's not workintg in my life. He works in my life always....and by the way, I HAVE seen proof that He exists....but that's an answer for another question.

Yes. The proof that God Exists is that there would be no creations without the Creator. The world would not have existed had God not created it.

God sent Messengers to the people to teach them about the Hereafter. Heaven was mentioned by the Messengers of God.

Yes. I've been told I am a gambler, betting on God to be real and heaven a sure thing. Even if I am wrong, what have I lost - I live a fairly clean life, I am happy and loved - I have all I need. "All I have seen teaches me to trust the Creator for all I have not seen." (Ralph Waldo Emerson) Faith is the evidence of things hoped for... I believe. (and for those who write me off as an uneducated person, I have degrees in biology, botany and religious ed.)


*P.S. It was my major advisor in my Master's program in Botany that told me I was a gambler.

God yes, as a higher power and the one I pray to daily. I believe in life after death and a higher power because the world, animals and us as humans are too perfect to be created by just the big bang theory!!!! There are too many unexplained events that some athiests profess to be 'coincidences'.

What created the big bang....and if you say an atom, what created the atom.

people that do not believe in anything or deny themselves a spiritual life of any kind are sad.

I do believe in life after death and I also believe in karma - what goes around comes around or as the bible says 'what you sow, you shall reap'.

So yes I believe in God and heaven as life after death.

Well...right now I "believe" but some days I just think to myself and ask..."is there REALLY a heaven"? is all this made up or what? do people go to heaven/hell when they die or do their bodies just stay on earth and decompose? were adam and eve really the first people on earth or...are we like...a result of a scientific reaction? But other days when I ask god for stuff and it actually happens i don't know if it's coincidence or what. and THOSE days i'm like wow, there really is a God up there. He answered my prayers.

I most certainly do. To me Heaven is your most sacred dream. So to me heaven is gonna be like this. Music by Waterfalls, Angels that sing, Oceans and everything in life that you see is beautiful will be ten times better up there. God will be the one to provide each and every one with their dreams and your families dreams may be different so the dreams will all connect into one big place "Heaven".

Nope, and here's why:

First, you have to define the term "God." The problem with most theists is that this term is a moving target.

In addition, because there is no evidence either for or against the existence of God, you cannot use deductive logic (a+b=c; therefore c-b=a). You can only reach a conclusion by inductive reasoning using the balance of evidence (90% of A is also B; C is B, so the chances are 90% that C is also A).

So to begin with, I will assert (and others may shoot this down) that the only RELEVANT definition of God states that GOD INTERVENES TO CIRCUMVENT NATURAL LAWS.

If God circumvents natural laws, then it becomes impossible to understand natural laws. All scientific findings would have to include the stipulation, "It is also possible that these results are an act of God, a miracle, thereby making our research meaningless."

However, we have been able to expand our knowledge of natural laws (evidenced by every appliance in your kitchen). Therefore, because the scientific method leads to applicable discoveries, and the likely conclusion is that God, at least the intervening kind, does not exist.

Additionally, if God is defined as all loving, all powerful, and all knowing, then it is impossible to explain suffering. Either God is not all loving (he acts sadistically), not all powerful (he cannot prevent suffering), or not all knowing (he created suffering by mistake because he didn't know the consequences of his actions). A God who is not all-loving, all-powerful or all-knowing is also not sufficient for the definition of God, because any God that fails to meet these criteria becomes bound by rules that are greater than God.

If God is bound by external rules and/or does not intervene in our existence, then God is either non-existent or irrelevant. The classic Bertrand Russell argument is that I cannot prove that a china teapot is orbiting the sun between the earth's orbit and Mars. But while I cannot prove this is not true, the evidence against it is compelling.

The evidence against God is equally compelling, and while it is not possible to prove beyond any doubt, it makes enormously more sense to live your life as if there were no God.

It is more compelling to me that humans have invented God (a) to help people deal with the pain and fear associated with death and loss, and (b) to reflect the thoughts of the ruling powers in a particular time. Humans are always searching for explanations. When none were found, it was the natural inclination to declare that the cause of the unexplained was "God" (or gods). As the faith grew, miracles (coincidences) and laws were ascribed to this Divinity, and an orthodoxy grew up around it.

Now it seems unhelpful to believe in such superstition. The only matters that aid in our ongoing well-being are work, location, health, sustenance, and pure, blind luck.

So nope, I don't believe God (or heaven) exists. And you know what? It's okay if others continue to believe God exists.
