I just don't
People ask me "why?" It's like asking why you love, or something.
Well I do sorta know why.. I'm just getting myself confused her.e.. Bottom line: I don't believe.

When you love you feel/see/are aware/... of a deep connection between you and your lover. That's why you love him/her.

When you believe in God you feel/see/are aware/.... of, again, a deep connection/link between you and God - between yourself and the Bigger SELF that is all. That's why you (or at least that's why I ) believe in God.

In a way, loving someone is (like) loving/being linked with God. And please do'nt tell me you don't love anyone.

I don`t believe in God too.I think we are just biological beings and when we die , this is the end.Actually I am sure in this for myself.

I don't worship, but I still believe. It's not a thing of logic for me. Not everything is rational

I don't think it's really important to rationalize everything in your life. I just believe, and explanations aren't necessary

What you dare question me in a public forum?

Your on crack!

Seriously though, of course God exists, it's just a matter of what you believe God is.

well im more of a scientific thinket which means if there is no proof it does not exist

this may have been brought up already, but is science not a faith in itself? faith in your capabilities as a rational human being and in your ability to see and understand the world around you?

All you need to do is look at a beautiful sunset, or look at the intensity of a human being. There is so much out there to substantiate the fact that a G-d does most probably exist...

Nope, there isn't.
Sunsets are a natural phenomenon which occurs due to the orbit of the Earth.
As for the intensity of a human, do you mean the intensity of a rapist or..?

Some proof would be nice, but it is impossible to prove, unfortunately.

God is inside us....there is God only in our mind and souls,,we keep out desteny and future in our hands..what we want to happen in depends only on us..and That`s the whole Truth.

The idea for God is created by people who want to control the others, because sometimes only the fear of God stops us of doing crazy things, if we live without the idea that soon after out death will pay for the bad things we have done while we was alive, is gonna to being anarchy

Exactly, the idea of God was created to control the masses and prevent chaos, something like a form of government.

"Man by nature is a political animal, and it is his nature to live in a state."
-Aristotle

The state could represent a i,e, a church, or a community with a common religion.

The idea of God was also created in man's need for a goal in life. If we look at all the living beings around in the world today, we see that one thing they all work for is survival. Well, we are beyond that, and so the idea of a God was created to "give" us a new "goal".

I belive God is in everyone of us!We don`t have to shout our believes, we don`t have to shou to anyone our faith!I think God exists in the manners we want to exist!

Well then ... I want God to exist in the form of thirty million American dollars in my secret Swiss bank account ;)

Most, if not all, civilizations (past and present) around the world have or had some type of god(s).
With this in mind, do you honestly think that all of these different civilization's created religion simply to control people?
I think not, but rather, human nature.
It is human nature to fear death. It can only be anticipated that humans will create idea's such as a God and afterlife.

I believe in a higher power, but not a familiar god. Trancendental deism. I would agree that for the majority of populi throughout civilization in time, religion has been necessary to maintain order by explaining things that governments could not, so I think the concept of a god is important and should be preserved, but I myself do not hold it close to me.

believe it or not..?
i say i believe it, without God this world will not created, how do yo things? are you still believe thats wirld is created itself? I think no,
Thats all
