God ;)

and by the way... it could be a polytheist as well. And next to that, what (monotheistic) God are you referring to? My girl keeps uttering that name sometimes, usually in the morning time, or at night. Along with a nice smile, and some moans. If you don't believe in that existence, than that person would be you.

Some more examples:

Buddhist
Nihilist
Scientist
Nietzsche

In order to deny Gods' existence you must know for certain he does not exist which is impossible due to faith being the primary benefactor to Gods existence. Therefore I would label someone who does not believe in God as someone who is ignorant to others and has no understanding of how religion works.

I do not believe in a substantial form of a self. Not in Humans, nor in any other phenomena. Every phenomenon can be broken down into something else, everything is ever-changing, devoid of essence. Even your faith exists out of criteria that would be different from any other believer, although it might show similarities, your criteria will probably alter as well during the course of your life. Yet you believe in something which can only be depicted as faith. I don't believe in vague concepts, or most of times, not even in the concept of a concept. It are just words.

God is a word. A compo sum of feelings, thoughts and everything else someone decides to include.

My religion is compassion and kindness. And that doesn't include calling people ignorant. Even though they might be.

I'm merely stating facts. Humans cannot disprove or prove Gods existence. Though we can't prove it, when I take into consideration of all the factors of life, I find it hard to believe it could of happened by chance. Despite the fact i'm not religious I find it illogical to believe everything happened by chance.

You were merely stating your opinions/statements. It's not a fact that humans can, or can't prove God's existence, for humans can't agree on what (a)God('s) is/are. It is an endless discussion.

Some might say you can prove/disprove God's existence, depending on what the concept of God is to you. A neuro-scientist Professor **** Swaab, and many others have wrote thesis on why it was important for human survival to believe in an afterlife, or protective entity. The fact something only exist in one's mind, does it make it unreal? Many things only exist in the mind, and many are considered real by many. In fact, Jean-Paul Satre has written great material on this. However, we are entering the meta-physical here... and when one does, one can ask oneself is it helpful for oneself, and other. Countless wars have begun over this. The meta-physical can be interesting matter
to discuss, but isn't discussing oneself's happiness much more important?

And nothing happens by chance. Even if the odds are one in a googal, there is an odd, therefeor it can, and given the time/space/chance/miracle/-insert whatever- it will happen. Because it can. Simple.

The fact we can't explain something doesn't imply it happened by chance, or as work of a God/greater being/magic fairy. It just means we can't explain(yet).

And if you can take in all factors of life you must be God/the almighty computer that tells us 42 and calls us ignorant, right? ;)

look, no hard feelings, and I'd like to have a discussion if you want.
