Topic: Why do you believe God exists? - page 34. (Read 7902 times)
I believe exist of God because in every things of the world which made by us has an oparator or driver.So there is a supreme power who controls all activity of the world which called God.
I don't believe it.
I know it
I believe in God because of many personal experiences with Him.

How do you know you aren't just mentally ill?
1. God is a vast energy field that connects all atoms.
We already have a name for that - gravity. :/
because, Solar system going on a correct ways. without Operator its impossible. if we think about this operating system we get everything. I think about it so I believe God exist.
Do you know how many solar systems exist in the universe that don't have ideal orbits? It is necessary that our solar system must have a stable orbit pattern, otherwise life couldn't exist, and since we do exist, we know we must live in a stable solar system. That is not evidence of an operator, it is simply an observation bias.

1. you have to separate religion from god. they are not the same
once you have done this you get left with a very real question which is simply: is there more?
the scientific answer is : we don't know
if you're 100% science, it ends here; but many of us feel, suspect, guess and see things that hint at there being more in the universe than just carbon based life. i find that when you remove religion from the god debate it becomes far more fascinating

I believe god exist because it was taught by my parents in me when i was growing up. They taught me that without god i have no life in this world and they said that god gave me to my parents and they are very thankful for that. And they also said to me that god created the heaven and the earth , all the living things that are in this world is created by god. God is the almighty father to us man.
Because i want to. I am sure that god exists and nobody can't make me change my opinion because everyone choosign for themslef what he want to do.
“Everything with a beginning requires a cause. The universe has a beginning and therefore requires a cause. That cause is God.”
AND YES I Believe.
AND YES I Believe.
Who says the universe had a beginning?

I am a scientist BUT I believe in God because of one simple reason: there are many things in life that science is not able to explain. Atheists may argue, that it's just that science has not been developed enough to explain such things, but has managed to discover certain rules that make things stand where they stand now, right? For example, the way sun heats our planet, the way gravitation works, the way our planet circles around, and so on. But what if there was a minor deterioration from those rules? Our planet would jump right to the sun and immediately burn down. So what is that superior power that keeps those things in their places?
Call it GOD, Jesus, Evil or just a superior power. I call it God. I don't think there is anything wrong with such assumption.

I'm a Scientist, have been for most of my life. I have NEVER believed in a supreme being, despite going to Catholic schools my entire life.
I'd like to know.... What is it that compels you to believe in God? How can you argue for his existence? Please bare the following in mind when you answer;
1. There are literally thousands of religions, each of which has members that believe just as firmly as you do, they say they feel a personal connection with God, they have their own religious books and doctrines etc, if you were born in Saudi Arabia, you would be a muslim, in Ireland you would be a protestant, seems like the place you are born denotes your religion, rather than divine intervention. Obviously you can't all be right, so how do you know YOU are.
2. Most religions state that God is all-powerful, all-knowing, all-loving, all-present and eternal. If this is the case, why are people punished for sins by an all loving God, who predestined them to commit their sins by knowing the future? Why is there bone cancer in Children, and insects that burrow into the eyes of infants making them blind, could an all loving God not have imagined a reality without this? And why is there such overwhelming evidence AGAINST the existence of a creator?
3. Since the scientific era God has slowly receded into the shadows, God used to be held responsible for most things, e.g. people offered sacrifices for good health, prayed for rain, thought that God pulled the sun across the sky, created plagues etc. Now we know he does none of these, and God has been reduced to a "God of the gaps" whereby he is still attributed to things we cannot yet explain with science, doesn't seem very powerful anymore.
I'll try to respond to the major points in this thread attempting to dismantle them.

Well, if God doesn't exist where do we base the standards of morality. How can we say that this certain thing is right or wrong, unless we realy have a higher being who is perfect and good.
Are you saying you are only moral because you believe God exists? If he didn't exist, would you suddenly become a psychopath?

Because beginning of life and after life are the two main things that we want to know. But science is not able to explain them.
I agree, even the great scientist cannot exlplain the origins of life and the universe. So who is responsible for all of these? Who knows everything? Most probably he's not human. He is God. I do believe that God exist. Everything you see is a proof of his existence. Its not like "to see is to believe" kind of thing. Its a mystery on how he work wonders. Even impossible things can happen if there's a faith involved.
I think we can agree that Science is our "God", however that doesn't mean society shouldn't follow a guideline of ethical and/or moral rules.
I believe the god exist for us all, because if he is not all of us now and if not,we will not see the world he has made for us.
The two main possibilities for god existing is...
1. God is a vast energy field that connects all atoms. It predates the big bang, is "all powerful" and is what people feel when they reach "enlightenment". Whether through religious practice, mediation or use of psychedelics.
2. We are living in a simulation created by other beings. Technically speaking those beings or being would be our god.
The chance of any religion being "the truth" is close to zero. That being said all religions have beauty and brilliance in them and can help certain people live a happy and healthy life.

Everything with a beginning requires a cause. The universe has a beginning and therefore requires a cause. That cause is God.
So yes God does exist..but is he/she in the form of what religions portray them to be?
That is the everlasting question that has yet to be answered. Everyone believes their God is the one and only.
Who really knows!

Most of the religious books were written before the printing press. They were hand-copied. This process is very demanding on the copier.
There are over 25,000 ancient copies of the Bible. There are only a few ancient copies of any other religion. Why? Maybe God and the copiers and the people who believed in the God of the Bible, thought that the truth was important enough to make many copies for themselves.
And there are over 2 million huge blocks on the pyramid of Khufu, does that mean aliens did it? Your ''proof'' is extremely shitty to say the least.
I believe God exists simple it because we exists in this world.
Wow, you clearly have a beautiful mind. Your poise, the way you frame your sentence(s)... It's exquisite. Your ability to convey such depth in so few words is remarkable. Truly, if I can become just half the man you are, I'll die proud.
