Does God exist?

For what it's worth if anything, I find that a creative cosmic force(s) might exist, but that this is about as far as we can go without assuming too much and suffocating inside a severely limited anthropocentric perspective. It seems more probable that something caused the Big Bang than that it caused itself, although I do not personally rule out that possibility.

Hi,

REASON

I am in control of parts of my body.
Something else or some other I controls the rest, like my breath, heartbeat, veins so much.
Am I really in control? I say NO. So what is controlling everything besides me?
The same force or entity or power controls.
I have never been in control.
At the same time I must have been in control.
We have taken over the planet, bullied other animals.
In fact we have
even caged them, what gives us this right?
Are we abusing our power or does the game of the survival of the fittest Carry on?
I say we are abusing our power.

This ridiculous precision of revolution, rotation of the earth,

moon and planets for thousands and thousands of years.
Something if not someone has assembled all this.
Based on this accuracy we invented the clock.
 
 
What has the capacity to play with or organize such gigantic spheres?
Our solar system is just a small part in this cosmos.
God knows for how many generations this is all going on.
 
 
We are connected together as the human species.
Deeper than that blood relationship and friendship.
Deeper the light, love, super intelligent, super entity
What we term as God.

  The atheistic conclusion is that the arguments indicate there is insufficient reason to believe that any gods exist.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Existence_of_God

Strong atheism is the position that a god or gods do not exist. The strong atheist explicitly asserts god's non-existence. Some strong atheists further assert that the existence of some or all gods is logically impossible, for example claiming that the combination of attributes which God may be asserted to have (for example: omnipotence, omniscience, omnipresence transcendence, omnibenevolence) is logically contradictory, incomprehensible, or absurd, and therefore that the non-existence of such a god is a priori true. It needs to be noted that believing the qualities of a particular God to be contradictory is not the sole basis of strong atheist; many strong atheists would assert that, owing to the lack of evidence, even a god described in a manner that was not contradictory is still unlikely to exist. It should also be noted that many religions credit human achievements to God, many strong atheists consider this to be outrageous, and contend that human achievements are the result of millions of years of inspiration and innovation.

Hi, 

It is true that it's a matter of belief but what's important to understand is that IT HAS TO BE SO. Kierkegaard, the Danish philosopher wrote that if god was a huge strange bird, sitting in the town square, crowing away, no doubt everyone would believe in him. But that sentence isn't correct for then there wouldn't be any need for belief. It would simply be knowledge. There is a huge gap between things that we know and things we believe. Belief starts where knowledge ends and the whole power of the religious experience is in the belief in something that there is no certainty it exists.

This is why I think you can choose to believe or not but logic has nothing to do with it. If you go around looking for logical extrapolations, as did certain people in their search for proof (such as the ontological argument), you are bound to return empty handed.

Hey, thats just what I think. 

Ronen22: In other words - you assert that faith begins where evidence runs out. I don't believe in anything unless I can eat it, drink it, drive it, shtup it or discern evidence of it. There is no need to believe in anything that cannot be experienced through the senses or proven logically.

I understand your line of thought. One can stick to the paradigm of "Seeing is believing" and there is no need to stir from that way of thinking. That's what most people do, and it's fine.

I believe that when you start talking about spiritual issues sometimes it is necessary to use other trends of thought. That is it why I stated that it's a matter of choice for there is no logic to it.

We can't see air.but it exists.

Those who look for God find Him.

First one must find faith.

Faith is believing in something the eyes can't see.

Look for God with your heart.

not your eyes.

God only comes through open doors.

He doesn't force anyone to believe in Him.

Believing in God is a choice.

Believe in God..He believes in you.
