Well, personally I don't. Some people still do, though. But I think many people are just becoming more educated and with that, becoming more logical in all ways of thinking so they loose their faith. That may be why it seems there are less people who believe in god nowadays

It all depends.
Allot of people believe in god but some of them don't go to church or anything. In fact, I have a classmate in college who claims to believe in god but doesn't attend church or read the bible. She feels that if she doesn't attend church, and, she says that she prays to god but, doesn't read the bible, she feels no need to attend church to hear the word.
Personally, I love going to church and reading my scriptures so that I can have a better life and so forth. I think that most people now a days believe in god but, some people go to church for the wrong reasons. But you have to be careful, because, you have your Atheists.

Yes, the vast majority of humanity still believes in God, for various reasons.

Surveys continue to show a decline in the fraction of people who believe in god(s), although it's still a substantial majority.

Personally, I find the idea just as silly as the idea of leprechauns.

Sure they do ! - this is what I know to be true: God being pure cannot even look upon sin - man, even in his very best state is a sinner - on judgement day, either: your sins are covered by the blood-shed sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross (salvation and only salvation - being a nice person isn't good enough - even at our very best, we are but filthy rags), and remembered no more or they are not (your sins are not covered) - where God's great love comes into play is, He provided a WAY (Jesus) for us not to perish and live in Heaven with Him (He certainly didn't have to do this but did because He loved us so) - if you read carefully John 3:16, this is exactly what it says - each person will either accept or reject, you must decide for yourself and yes, it's so important, it has eternal consequences - He Loves you and wants you to accept God's free gift to man - Jesus - more info available on my profile page if you'd like...Take care !!

Ethmer, God did not abandon the universe. He set it up to run on its own. He still moves, when called upon, from a pure heart. He may not answer the way you expect, but, he will answer. Multitudes of people see Gods hand move, on a regular basis, however unbelief ties his hands.

So God is clearly not omnipotent or omniscient...

(Joh 1:1 KJV) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

(Joh 1:2 KJV) The same was in the beginning with God.

(Joh 1:3 KJV) All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

(Joh 1:4 KJV) In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

(Joh 1:5 KJV) And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

Amblessed, you love to paste this screed at every opportunity, and it always makes me wonder: If god cannot even look upon sin, how is he omnipotent?
