Is there any actual evidence for the existence of God?

Question

Apart from "the bible says so", "loads of people believe it", "I felt his spirit", etc

Answer 1

"Look! Something shiny! God exists."

"There's no other POSSIBLE explanation for __(insert object/event/phenomenon here)___."

"Well, you're stupid if you don't believe. The Bible says so."

Answer 2

Yep. the evidence is a little indirect but applies directly to the realm of Science. I cannot go into it all, because its too lengthy, so there are two things I propose

Firstly, Science does not accept something that does not have a cause, even if unkown. They assume that Chistians believe that God has no cause, and therefore He cannot exist. The correct statement is that God has no known cause. Neither does the Big Bang. They accept that the BB exists but has no known cause, so therefore they are incoherent in saying that God cannot exist when He has no known cause.

Secondly, there are quite a few calculations that have a real part and imaginary part, particulalry prevalent in electrical ones. The imaginary part cannot exist (ie the square root of -1) yet if they dont take this imaginary part into account, the equations do not give the correct result.

Therefore they are taking into account an intangible of the natural laws created by God that govern such things. I keep hearing a lot about logic here. By what realm of logic can you accept an imaginary part for a calculation in a real world?

Science itself has to accept the illogical. From their point of view it is then illfounded!

Answer 3

Yes, there is evidence, and it is all around.
However, if one insists that it isn't evidence,
then they won't be able to percieve it as such--
no matter how convincing it is!

Belief doesn't change facts, though,
and, neither does dis-belief...

Finding either a house, or, a hut --in the middle of a forest-- indicates that a human has been there, & built it. No wind storm could possibly deposite the materials within it, in such an organized fashion. It is obvious that someone* made it--therefore they* must exist...

The same goes for life forms, but even more so, because they are so much more complex in form, PLUS they have LIFE. If materials for a simple structure cannot come about by chance, how much more this is true for living organisms!
They / We exist, therefore our Creator exists, also.

Answer 4

The miracles of Jesus would be a good sign, also the signs sent by God, found in the Old Testament e.g. the parting of the Red Sea, the events experienced by the prophets of old like Elijah when the altar complete with sacrifice was set on fire even though plenty of water was put upon it and surrounded it; Moses with the burning bush, etc. The manna set from heaven afresh each day to keep the Israelites alive. Plenty of signs have been given throughout the ages to show his existence and Jesus came to tell those who would listen He and His Father are one.

Ever wonder during the Asian Tsunami?
Ever wonder how the land were 600ft above sea level?
Ever wonder how the water reach out and move inland and grabbed all the little men and women and children like swiping off an ant hill off the land with seven times of extra ordinary power which is not a so-called natural disasters?
Ever wonder how living human kind challenge God with computers with Hurricane Katherina?

Answer 6

Look at the big bang theory. It all started from a single point. There was nothing, and then there was something. Hmm... Now where have I heard that before?

So science and religion are in agreement with that one.

If you really look at an atom, it's incredibly small. So incredibly small that it goes even smaller than protons and electrons. Quarks and on and on and on...
Now look at the rest of the universe. It's incredibly big. So incredibly big you can't even imagine it. All this, the big and the small, came from nothing. There was nothing, and then there was something.

So either everything is just a random coincidence, or it all came from somewhere.

Is there proof of God? No. But that's kind of the point of faith. Or course, there isn't PROOF of the big bang either. Evidence, yes. Proof, no.

Until we find out what caused the big bang, we'll never know for sure what else is out there.

Answer 7

there is more than enough evidence of God's existence....physical evidence is all around us take for example our planet ..Earth is located at just the right distance from the sun, any closer and we would burn any further and we would freeze, the sun remains in the same position even though it is rotating at 67,000 mph could this be by chance? no!...the moon is just the right size and distance from earth. Think of what would happen i the moon was further, think how it would affect our gravitational pull. Us humans are much more intelligent than any other creature on the face of the planet. How could this be by chance, there is no other explanation but the fact that there is a creator. Don't let others fool you....there is a creator there is a God....

Answer 8

No evidence. I suppose when you consider what a wonderful thing the universe is and the earth and life itself you must think that there is something wonderful behind it all but there is nothing to suggest that whatever that is has any interest in any person as a person or even humans as a species and it is difficult to imagine why anyone would be fooled into thinking there was such a thing

Answer 9

There is no evidence at all. The question remains whether evidence could exist; important arguments can be made that no evidence would suffice. If this is true, it is not reasonable to ask for any, and any deity that might exist is irrelevant (having no measurable effect within space/time).

Answer 10

I'm not sure if your a Christian but I am Muslim. AND PLEASE DON'T STOP READING BECAUSE I JUST SAID THAT AND PLEASE READ MY WHOLE EXPLANATION THOUGH LONG. We believe pretty much the same way although we don't believe Jesus is God's son but just a messenger. Islam is a beautiful religion which many people tend to misinterpret. The prophet Muhammad in our religion was given word through an angel to deliver the message of God(Allah). In this message God states "That there is no equivalent to this glorious revelation and if you don't believe, then could anyone create such words of such beauty and power." Besides, look around yourself and think to yourself, do you think a "big bang" could have created such beauty and complexity. If you ever get the time, go look up Yusuf Islam who used to be the extremely famous and successful British pop singer Cat Stevens. He states how after begging God for help in a life threatening situation he was saved and pledged to serve God. He was miraculously saved while about to drown and was brought back to shore alive. Immediately, he began searching for the right religion (he used to be Christian) and he stumbled upon Islam finding immediate peace inside of the religion. He is now a devout Muslim and has sung many beautiful songs about Islam. (I suggest listening too them if you find time). I hope that you could look into Islam but I am in no way forcing you. Thanks for your time and I hope I helped you out.

Answer 11

There is no proof for the existence of God, because it's not necessary. Religous belief by definition does not require evidence. If you need proof to have faith, you have no faith to begin with.
Your arguement has already been made along time ago, by people a lot smarter than either of us. Let me refer you to the story of Doubting Thomas in the Bible, to see how it turns out.
