God is love and He is very real and can be experienced. For many however, there is such a misconception concerning God...
When people choose not to believe in God, it usually stems from people claiming God did things He didn't do, or they deny things that God actually did, rationalizing some other explanation. In any case, both sides deny the nature of God and ignore the testimony of those who witnessed Him, His interaction with humanity. And the most extreme views, though in far less number, are those who claim God does not exist...but are entirely without the ability to prove it either way.
If you have faith and truly seek to find the One true God, then you will find Him, and if you seek a real relationship with God...then you will come to know and understand just how real He is. You will experience God in your life when you begin to trust Him. Don't take my word for it.
Seek Him and discover that there is in fact much more to our existence here on this corrupted rock, than just being successful and dying...
Take Care and God Bless you!

I have lived enough years to understand and appreciate the nature of the human condition and realize why we are here on Earth and where we come from. God is everywhere, everything comes from God, all life, all love. It is we who have forgotten about God and now must come to terms with this and relearn how to connect to God.
Look around this world, at nature, it works perfectly, is balanced just right and needs no intervention from man to continue to work. Look at the Universe, it is the same way, all things work in perfect harmony.
How did all this happen? By chance? By accident? By divine creation?

Do you believe in the wind? Yet you have never seen it.
All you have seen is its effects and sometimes the wind on your face.
Likewise when you see a tree blown over then you must think that the wind blew it down because there was a storm last night.
Likewise if you look at the way the earth is made for man to thrive and prosper on this earth. You must consider that something made all these things that we use. Food, shelter and other things this is all created by God/Allah.
So when someone does something for you its polite to say thank you, right?
What about the one who created everything for you, why don't you thank him? why don't you thank God/Allah.
Please email me for any more answers

Because everyone knows that there's something out there that is stronger and more powerful than us, whether you admit to it or not. Isn't it nice to know that there's an omnipotent being out there who created you, and loves you, and wants you to be in heaven with him forever? Take some time to read the Bible and you will see that EVERYTHING written in it is true-- scientifically or morally.
God even answers the silliest of prayers. Like one time, I couldn't find my shoes any where. I actually prayed to God that I could find them. Afterwards I remembered that I left them in the car. And sure enough, there they were. I wouldn't have even thought of that at all. Seems like a stupid thing to pray about, doesn't it? But it just goes to show that He cares.

I don't.
On one hand, you have volumes of information that show that each religion has human origins. You also have volumes of evidence that show the human tendency to make up and strongly believe myths, superstitions, urban legends, and the like. Religion strongly fits the profile of a superstition.
On the other hand, you have no real evidence of any god actually existing.

I don't, the god business is control over people through guilt and the big word MONEY.

God is real. I when I pray I talk to God. He is some one who can help you with your problems that no one else can like your friends or your parents. He is true to His word and He keeps me safe when I get hurt by some one who doesn't care.
Read the Bible and you will see that He isn't fake and that he does care about you.
