Why do people believe in God? - qwee - 06-24-2013
Hey.
I'm serious regarding this topic, what is the reason? What makes people think that God actually exist?
I personally think it's a weird thing, mainly because I don't believe in things that really can't be proved.

I personally don't believe the existence of Gods, since there is no solid prove regrading of the existence of Gods. I'm no atheist at all to be honest and even though I don't believe in the existence of Gods. But I have doubt respects to amongst all ordinary religions out there in this world, which I find; touching and interesting.

Most believe in God to keep their faith alive; or just to flat-out fulfill their needs of following something.
I, for one, am a strict atheist.

I think people a long time ago created a "God" to give them courage because they know they have someone watching over them and guiding them along the way. Also, it gives them sort of a purpose in life and something to follow.

Some people need blind faith to get them through the day.

A better question is why not believe in a God? It gives you something to look forward to, it can set some better guidelines too.

Well I believe in him because when I was younger I was taught about it. I never really questioned it. I honestly do believe there is someone watching over us. I believe in the devil and demons etc, and that God protects us from him. I get the Bible is just all sorts of random that contradicts itself to people, but to me I find that it all makes sense in it's own twisted way. But you know, that's just me and how I was raised.

I found this video with TAA. It's explaining pretty much what I think about God.
Basicly what he's saying is, that you can't prove there's a god, but you can't prove there isn't a god neither.
Some people think it's logical to believe in a god, and some don't. I'm one of the people who don't, but I'm respecting the opinion of others, as I'm expecting them to do so with my opinions.

Do you guys believe in ghosts, exorcisms, demons? If yes, why not believe that there is God? There is also no proof if how everything started. So I somehow believe that you can link science with God. What if God made the first atoms/ nano things to start and mold the universe. But that's just me and I don't know for you guys.

Well it's just as easy to ask why you think god doesn't exist. Just because we don't have an answer for something doesn't mean it doesn't have an answer. I don't believe and I don't not believe, I just am kind of dead smack in the center. I have my good and bad days I guess with God.
