i believe in GOD, theirs no doubt in my mind. we all have man made things, such as xbox, tv, cars, etc... but man can't create water. man can't create a storm at will. man can't create a planet. man can't create a human being. i can't see how anyone cannot believe in GOD. people are always talking about they need evidence, when clearly were not meant to know everything. every scientist was born like us, so they can't determine the answer..
one other thing people ask, is "why does GOD allow bad things to happen"? well you wanna be able to do what you want, correct? you don't wanna be controlled correct? well GOD gave us the gift of free will, to decided our own fate, you must earn your keep.. i feel this life is supposed to prepare us for the next..

After every scientific fact ,you've to ask the question :
who could have been mention that in the kuran?
the only answer would be the creator,the inventor,the productor.
you call him God ,we call him Allah.
I call God with a different name, but as i once saw in a t-shirt: several religion symbols and the sentence: God is to great to fit in a single religion!
The Bhagavad Gita also mention interesting stuff... and it's been around a lot longer (+/- 12 000 year). For instance: Lord Khrisna (one personality of the Godheah) said he created thousand of worlds... and i believe he was not talking only of material ones...
It's a same ppl use your religion to do War! I don't know much, but a friend of mine know a tiny tiny bit and speaks well!
So if you want to educate me, please, feel free to pm me!
African mythology (yoruba) has some nice myth, for example: Science tell us that life began in the see and the myth of creation of humans are tied to the Sea Orisha Yemonja (She is the force of nature in the seas)! See gave birth to humans...
And the fact that Sun gods are important in every pagan religion is not a coincidence: they understood that life was possible because of the son.
i believe in GOD, theirs no doubt in my mind. we all have man made things, such as xbox, tv, cars, etc... but man can't create water. man can't create a storm at will. man can't create a planet. man can't create a human being. i can't see how anyone cannot believe in GOD. people are always talking about they need evidence, when clearly were not meant to know everything. every scientist was born like us, so they can't determine the answer..

"paulsama, what religion are you in"? i say .... " i am"
Bro, nurture "doubt" in your mind. It will help you question and find even better answers
There's a need to have ppl who DON'T believe. Why? Because if we all believe, no one would question... It's like positive and negative, male and female, black and white, light and darkness, believing and not believing!
This is a dual "universe"!
He doesn't want bad thing to happen, but free will is a hctib!
We have to clean up our own mess...
But pay attention and study because this is one of the aspects you must know very well, for it's one that atheist will attack you with!
I also believe this life is a preparation for the next, and the next will be the preparation for another... it's called evolution!
But we must enjoy this one, for it's a gift to have it.
Keep in your own path. You will never fall if you keep your heart in the right place.
Bro, don't go ape! That's the problem when we discuss this kind of subjects.
Keep in mind that we have free will, that we all are looking for answers.
Some found'em, some don't.
I believe we should respect other's even if you don't understand why they think the way they do. And never, i mean, never go ape on a written message because, as you said, you can't "see" the true intention behind a screen/paper, whatever...
And kid (i say this in a most respectful way <3) keep searching!
With your age i stopped believing... but that all in the past
I do believe in God. I don't go to church or any Bible Studies etc., but I do believe in God. Maybe the reason why I believe in God is because I look around and I ask myself, "Who can create this universe?" And yea, God is the answer. I do admit,that sometimes I have doubts that if God really exists, but I just realized one day that he does.He really does.
I believe in God because his influence in my life is simply undeniable. Not to mention the countless number of things that had to be just so for life to even exist.
I do believe in God. Faith in God makes me feel safe. I see things on earth such as Mountains and come to the conclusion that man could have NEVER created that
