I believe in god. It just takes less faith for me to believe in a god creating things than it happening by accident. This may be due to the fact that I had it crammed down my throat for 12 years in christian school but whatever. Either way god or not I'm not going to change the way I act. I'm still going to do drugs and listen to "satanic" music.
I'm thinkin of goin for the life of sin followed by the miracle death bed turnaround just in case there is a heaven haha.

yeah god is fo realz d00d.
i have been touched by god many times, without this divine power i would be dead by now. weather or not the power was always in me and surfaced at the right time, or was sent in from elsewhere (unlikely) is irrelevant because it exists, and that is also a whole other argument. I believe that god is really just a name for something we hold inside of us.

How can God be real? If he wants everyone to have Faith and believe in him... Why doesn't he just reveal himself? Because if he were to just reveal himself, SO many people would start believing in him and reading the Bible...
Why does he ostracize us from himself? his supposed 'children'? And ultimately let the non-believers die in the flames of Hell?

I major in chemistry, and the more I learn about this thing we call the universe. Its blatantly obvious that this universe is not atoms blindly colliding, or a chance occurrence. Idk about god but I do know there is defiantly an intelligent force that has created and governs things. I believe that in a constantly evolving universe that creator is constantly evolving and as well as all the laws that govern this thing we call the universe.
I think a great example of this is the fact that, if 1 electron of 1 atom were to collide with its nucleus, it would destroy our planet. If you believe this universe is just a happenstance, or random occurance, how in the 4 billion years our planet has been around hasn't this happened by complete chance or randomness?

Why do you assume that when some speaks of "a god" they are automatically referring to the god of christianity?
Ever stopped to think that perhaps there is a god that doesn't give two shits if you worship "him" or not? One that wouldn't even bother to check and see if you are?
I'm not sure if I believe in an actual GOD, but there have been times in my life when I have had some very convincing experiences. I do, however, believe that there is more to life than working, eating, breeding, and dying.

Yeah, I believe that we're all god. We've made ourselves forget this so that we can play this game called relativity.

Personally I don't believe in a god. With the amount of existing matter and the various reactions that can occur between various quantities of existing matter its hard for me to believe that one entity is governing/creating it all. One thing that does boggle my mind is how matter was created in the first place, but without the threat of a god I don't have to distract myself from maintaining my life by attempting to understand creation.
Good stuff.
