Does God exist?

Do you believe in god? does he exist? My opinion is god exist... who would create everything we see? and even us who is our creator? let say that the organism or the bigbang theory is true then who create those things? God do exist because all of the blessings in here life sickness, he is the one who created this things, any one who didn't belive god has no right to have a religion, you have a religion then you didn't believe go! You have no right to live either go with the devil the two of you has the same face and attitude either.

Re: Does God exist?

On that subject I could go for hours, me and my ex argued over this a lot also, but I would think there is one, but at the same time I don't go along with all of the guidelines that most people do that believe there is one. For starters after reading a bit over the bible I've noticed it just goes and contradicts half of the things it's trying to tell us to do. Some of the things in it doesn't seem like it's the right thing to do, though taking our current life styles into effect, our morals and standards are much different, so naturally it wouldn't fit into this period of time. But, I just don't see stoning someone to death because they commited adultry, or an act of crime right. Even the death sentence for someone that commited murder isn't right, but that's just me. I have went to many churches just to see that they preach ideals but never follow them through, and when they do it just seems misplaced. I think if God is there then he would want us living our lives from the heart and not looking up hoping to impress him and always think if it's what he wants us to do. We was all given free will, and the ability to chose our life, so who's to say what I do is right or wrong? And the whole deal with heaven and hell, who's to say that my life isn't heaven for me, and hell for someone else? Some pyromaniacs would enjoy a life surrounded by fire =^.^= so how can you say that would be hell? I can go on all day but I'll stop here. :X

Nobody can prove God exists or not.

Re: Does God exist?

I agree with Hassun, you can't prove that he exists, its either you belive in him or you don't.

As for me, I can't belive that he can't exist, not with all the things I've seen.

Re: Does God exist?

"If you’re male and you’re Christian and living in America, your father is your model for God. And if you never know your father, if your father bails out or dies or is never at home, what do you believe about God?"

This quote from the Fight Club novel sums up most of my beliefs concerning the metaphorical construct that is "God".

I dunno... That's like asking if scientists aren't just talking a bunch of bull crap. Science can't disprove God, God can't disprove science. Personally, I don't care anymore. There was a point in time that I truly thought a god existed, but my views have changed since then. If a God exists then he does. If he doesn't, he doesn't. That's my outlook on it.

I don't need a mysterious figure or deity to worship and/or distort my view on reality. I believe I can be happy without worrying about whether or not there is a god or worshiping a god. Humans can find happiness on their own.

Re: Does God exist?

In my personal opinion, I do believe there is a God. Mostly because of personal experience and logical reasoning. Let me say this now, I have contemplated this subject numerous times. I have thought about evolution, creationism, the Big Bang theory, and other such things.

I have deeply examined the atheistic point of view. I thought if there is no God then how was the earth created? Why am I even here? How did life as we know it even start? Did a living molecule just magically appear one day and start the whole process of life?

This is one of the reasons I firmly believe in God. For me it makes more sense that an intelligent, supernatural entity created life rather than one special day it all appeared. Of course there is the argument of evolution and I don't dispute it one bit because evolution makes sense and the theory has been reinforced many times. Even so this raises the question, what set into motion evolution itself? The Big Bang if it happened what caused the Big Bang in itself?

Now, I will say right now that I do not strictly follow by the Bible. Mostly because the Bible in itself was written mostly by man and in itself is subject to human error and there are events in the bible that I admittedly find extremely hard to believe. The Bible for me is more of a guide and I agree with a lot of core Christian beliefs.

As for proving God exists, I can't do that. It is impossible for me to prove irrefutably if God exists or not. All I can do is present my beliefs and the reasons for having said belief.

Re: Does God exist?

I always hear this question: Does God exist? Each time I hear that, I don't know how to respond. It's not like anyone has been able to prove his existence. I'm not even sure why I am using “he.” For all I know, God is female. It's things like this that make me question Christianity. They can always try to seem like the know everything about their teachings, traditions, and rituals. But can they really back up all questions asked to them by people?

Honestly, I cannot imagine that they can. How would you even know when they are making things up just for you to stop asking that same questions. I mean there's already theories and doubts of Christian stories. I mean if you have either read or watched Da Vinci Code, there's your prove of doubt and theories being speculated. People might have even different things they could try to imagine about Christianity. If there was an actual proof of everything that Church said like the existence of God, maybe we would stop asking questions. But I don't think that's ever going to happen.

I know people have some stuff like when miracles happen. People would believe it's God's work. I've even heard several times on the news that people in the hospital who were on the brink of death came back alive. Then these people tell their experience what it was like to be temporarily dead.

In the end, I'm not sure what to believe when it comes to the existence of God. I guess it's definitely a "maybe" for me.

Re: Does God exist?

well to put it bluntly i can't awnser you're question.... i can't prove, nor disprove that god exists.....

I for one... don't beleave in God anymore..... yea sure technicaly i'm a cristian... i was bathtised and all that crap... but as years passed and i grew older i started doubting in this so called "God" .... i started to beleave in facts... things that have solid proof and well... you can't deny they're existance and stuff... you don't have proof... yea i might beleave you.... depending on what you're trying to tell me... if you whant me to beleave something bring me proof.
if it makes you feel better you can call me satanist or son of the devil or whatever... but to tell you the truth... if there where proof that God existed, i whould likeley worship Satan over Him

Re: Does God exist?

Asking if God exsists doesn;t really help. I think specifying in the christian sense is a bit unfair. Why not ask of the other gods and patron deities? if one exsists, then surely they all must, and conversely if one doesnt then they all dont.

It's like asking if there is a real difference between good and evil. You can not answer it. What one person sees as evil the other will see as good. therefore, with that logic, if one person believes God exsists there will always be people who don't.

There is no way to prove God exsits and live to tell the tale, for in my experiences you need to die in order to meet the big guy.
