God - does he exist?

How can you say that? People die every day, from natural causes to terrorism to murder to car crashes and diseases - both Christians, Jews, Muslims, Atheists, Agnostics, Wiccans, Scientologists, etc. fades away to non-existence.

 

So, you believe that we all die to nothing? To nothing but a rotting corpse in the ground? Hmph, that's hard to believe.

Yes, and lots of people believe that God controls things like death.

 

How is it hard to believe? It's the most logical explanation; once you die your consciousness ceases to exist, and your body decomposes.

Planet Earth is just one huge compost-heap, and humanity are the worms living in it.

 

Think of all the beginning of life. Your birth everything...such a wonderful and magnificent birth, and you would consider to just end like that? That's it? I don't believe anything like that. Then life sort of seems a bit pointless...a bit.

There's a heaven and hell...there has to be people dwelling in there.

 

It is pointless, on a grand scale.

Why do you say there "is" a heaven and a hell?

 

Well, when we're dead, IF we decay, rot, and just turn into nothing, and we are part of the Earth, then there's really no point in what we did live before...and that doesn't seem very likely towards me.

I say there is a heaven and hell, because I believe that there is a God, a satan, an after-life, sir.

 

Why doesn't it?

Why do you?

 

Because, I believe in God, like this thread says. I think he exists, I believe in the bible, his word, sir.

 

Well i do believe him.

And without him i would now still wear glasses.

 

Why do you?

 

Deja-vu. We've gone through this like 539025times on MSN, but okay.

I think it's hard to believe that nothing really created the universe we lived in today. I think there has to be some sort of superior being up in the heavens watching us today. If there is no God, then what is there?

 

Actually,nobody really has proof about a god sep a bible that anyone could have written no offence but saddartha did it (buda for those stupid ones)
and evolution is looking better and better everyday...but on the other hand some miracles do happen sorta.... but most people may say its god but it could be luck or...we could all just form from somthing on the earth you never know.

 

Not liking the idea is not a logical reason to reject it. Logically, why do you not think that?

 

Let me rephrase...it's not disliking the idea of no God so I believe in it...it's because I can't really consider this world made by something of natural force, or power equivlent to us, or something in the everyday life. I just believe that there has to be a God, someone who created this world, and is controlling, steering the lives of everyone.

Tell me how you think another way...of the world could've been created, sir.

 

In a way we, humans are not meant to know.

 

So we are left with the theory of God, which I clearly believe.

Why would someone fake everything, like the bible?

 

Because in Islam, it is not whether or not you say 'I believe in God, and Islam' It is whether in your heart, and soul you really do believe in God. It's sad to see that human beings these days think they can fool Almighty God. You may be fooling yourself, and other humans, but not God, never. I don't know about Jews, Hindus, Christians, Catholics and other religions, but in Islam, God judges you by your 'imam' meaning: Your morals and your actual belief inside of you.

 

Your inability to understand it is irrelevant.

Personally, I rather think that the Big Bang spontaneously occurred.

 

Why would you consider the Big Bang, over a supreme being like God?

IF the Big Bang existed, what powered it?

 

It did. There is quite a bit of evidence to support it.

Who knows? It may have been antimatter-matter reactions, or something else entirely.
