Does anyone belive in God?

Does anyone here believe in God?

Do you really think that he exist?

Or do you think in 200 years people are gonna laugh and say “these crazy people 200 years ago believed in God”

So, here’s the thing, I’m 16 and I’m still trying to find out if I really do believe in God or not. MY family is really religious and every one of them have been baptized . Why do I somtimes not believe? Because they say God brings good stuff into your life… Not me! Nothing has been good for me…

Any way… Who believes in God and why? And if you don’t believe..why?

Answer #1

Amed to arachnid

Answer #2

I believe in the almighty spread offense.

Answer #3

well,sorry for misunderstanding your question!!! :-)

Answer #4

I was raised as a Christian too but I still dunno where I am! :)

Answer #5

if you believe in God and an atheist argues on how?What proof do you have?

Please be aware that this argument generaly comes up because believers are the ones asking athiests how could we not believe, and aren’t we afraid of going to hell.

Answer #6

I do!You should have a firm belief in one thing and not be deterred by anything.

E.G if you believe in God and an atheist argues on how?What proof do you have?You are not answerable to them!Just answer,’I believe because I do.’

 So good luck!I believe in Him because-well,I do!:)
Answer #7

I believe there’s something there but not God because how could someone make the world in 7 days?

Answer #8

Like it says in the movie Dogma, it doesn’t matter what you believe in as long as you believe in something. Just listen to your heart and don’t let anyone make decisions for you.

Answer #9

I believe with everything that is within me, with my soul, my mind, my heart and my spirit. To me, God is my everything. He came into my life, in June of 1985, and I would not trade my relationship with him, for anything.

Answer #10

I would agree with tseirpeht and would suggest that you take him seriously. Because there is a God and there are indeed thousands of things that point to the creator. And if you ruin your thoughts about Him you have come to the right place. Don’t go by the wise sounding claims that they have not seen anything that points to the creator. They don’t see anything pointing to the creator because they don’t want to see.

Its your choice to choose eternal life or eternal distruction.

Deu 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:

Answer #11

“Don’t go by the wise sounding claims that they have not seen anything that points to the creator.”

I could say the same about the “wise sounding claims” that “thousands of things” point to a creator. Nobody here has provided evidence of any of them, or a single testable hypothesis that would distinguish a created universe from a natural one.

Answer #12

I FOR JESUS bam bam bam!!!

Answer #13

In 200 years, my bet is no human will any longer believe in god. The reason I think that, is not because I think people will inherently become smarter or less superstitious, but because I think all humans will have artificially augmented intelligence and instincts - assuming we exist in biological form at all by then.

Those who are able to overcome the irrationality that made sense for our tribal ancestors, will thrive in the future, and everyone else will follow suit. I think this will happen in less than 100 years.

Answer #14

Two hundred years isn’t very long…I think they will still believe, as it has been the way of mankind since the beginning…to believe in something.

p

Answer #15

I BELIEVE IN GOD!!! 100% HE IS MY SAVIOUR IM 15 AND I KNOW SOMETIMES I DO WRONG BUT I KNOW HE’S going TO FORGIVE ME BECAUSE HE LOVES ME…GOD IS REAL AND HE IS GREAT. HE CREATED US SO WHY NOT BELIEVE IN HIM. HOW CAN WE SAY THAT ONE DAY THERE WAS JUST A BIG EXPLOSIN AND EVERYTHING CAME TO BEING. I AINT NO MONKEY OR APE OR WHATEVER. GOD MADE ME A HUMAN BEING IN THE LIKENS OF HIS OWN IMAGE I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO BE A CHRISTIAN AND HOPE OTHER PEOPLE WANT TO ALSO

Answer #16

“I think the fact that atheists talk so much of God, is because deep down there is something in them that believes there is something more.”

Thanks for being so condescending. The only reason many of us talk ‘so much’ about god (not just the Christian one, note) is because so much of society concerns belief in the supernatural, and many of us feel the need to address that issue.

Answer #17

It does not matter if there is no proof. It is what I believe. That is all there is to it. I won’t be mean like some here. I love the Lord and that is what I believe.

Answer #18

I know God exists. A bigger question would be what type of God is he. Is he a personal God, or an impersonal God. Is Jesus God, or is he not. If you seek the truth you will find it. But it means you have to be willing to question what you already believe, and to be critical of what others tell you, including the media, the atheists, the Christians, everyone. If you truly desire to find out what is true, I believe you will find it.

Atheists express their rage against God although in their view He does not exist. –C. S. Lewis

I think the fact that atheists talk so much of God, is because deep down there is something in them that believes there is something more.

If there be a God and one has never sought him, it will be small consolation to remember that one could not get proof of his existence. –George MacDonald

Answer #19

“There are thousands of things that point to a creator.”

I have yet to hear one.

“But when you have your mind already made up you will not accept them.”

I do not make up my mind before I see evidence. I make it after I see it. Which do you do?

“If you are looking for encouragment to kick G-d out of your life then you have come to the right place.”

I could no more kick god out of my life than I could santa or the easter bunny.

“Noone on this site can give you understanding, hope or love.”

There is more of a chance of finding understanding here than there is in ancient texts written by susperstitious men.

Answer #20

I am a proud muslim dis is what we belive …well what happend is that god built the universe and also der wer 2 people we are mde out of different types of clay dey dint have clothes and dats how evry1 is born we are all bros and sis

Answer #21

There are thousands of things that point to a creator. But when you have your mind already made up you will not accept them. If you are looking for encouragment to kick G-d out of your life then you have come to the right place. Just do me one favor, when you feel alone and want something in your life that can radically improve your circumstances. Ask G-d to open up your heart and see the truth. You will start to notice things, for me it started off small untill I couldn’t get enough. It was a personal path that only I could follow, and only I could understand. Eventually you will find yourself wanting more and more and every time you become thirsty he will fill your cup. Noone on this site can give you understanding, hope or love. All you have to know is where to get it from. G-d bless I hope that one day soon you will realize that all the hardships in your life turn into a blessing.

Answer #22

“There are thousands of things that point to a creator.”

And yet nobody has been able to suggest a single experiment that would test this hypothesis.

Answer #23

I don’t believe in God, but that was through several years of doubt and questioning - I was raised a Christian. I did a lot of research before coming to the conclusion that I simply don’t believe He exists, and that works for me, but everyone has a right to believe what they want.

Aside from that, Christianity has survived a couple thousand years, I doubt that 200 years from now it will have faded away :)

Answer #24

YUP,I BELIEVE IN GOD!!! AND GOD EXIST TOO!!! you KNOW SOMETIMES you FEEL THAT NOTHING GOOD HAS HAPPENED TO you AND THAT IS ALL BECAUSE OF GOD BUT IT IS REALLY your MISTAKE,GOD HAS MADE THIS WORLD!!! IF you THINK GOD IS FICTION THEN WHO MADE THIS WORLD AND WHO MADE your PARENTS AND THEN U,WHO MADE THE TREES AND NATURE,WHO MADE THE SUN,MOON AND THE PLANETS??? THINK ABOUT IT!!! MAYBE IF you START TO BELIEVE IN GOD,GOD WILL SHOWER HIS BLESSINGS ON U!!!

GOOD LUCK,HOPE I HAVE HELPED U!!!

Answer #25

Yea I ask that question every day,,,but who says that it’s not true and it’s make believe. If God has no beginning to end than who is he? If he has no beginning or end than maybe everything else is the same. And I’m not saying I do not believe in God but does he really exist? That’s my question. And if so, how do we know? etc..

Answer #26

I dont belive in your god

Before anyone condems me to hell wait let me explain my theory

Weather you belive in god or not I belive he has little to no infulance to what we do on earth I think that is the point to weed out to wicked so to speek , I belive this life is a test , thats why bad stuff happens to everyone , thats why evil exists its all because we have free will ,

but anyway I would not read too much into the bible as I was written long after christ “lived”

I would not buy into orginaised religion in general

I belive your relationship with god should be personal one to one thing

but thats all my opinion I dont claim to know the truth I dont lie like others

Answer #27

I believe in God. I think around this age a lot of teens get confused about what the believe. I, not proudly, admit sometimes do question wether is God is real or not. Then I find out something like Moses, in the book of Job, knew air had weight, but that wasn’t proven until 300 years ago! I found that pretty amazing. Or that the world wasn’t created necissarly in seven days, the latin word used in the bible to describe how long God took to create the world, is commonly mistranslated, (of course I forgot the word, will ask my sister who is minoring in latin tomorrow morning) but it simply means time passed. It could have take minutes, days, months, years, centuries…Things like this have helped keep my faith in a world full of science.

Answer #28

I believe in God because at the age of 9, I asked Him for forgiveness of my sin and to come into my heart and He did !! - He lives within - it’s called Salvation, as you can read why, the gift (Jesus), gain eternal Life in Heaven, all contained in the verse John 3 : 16,…so check it out if you’d like !…your option.

Answer #29

I beleive in him! and I think people in 200 years will too and if they dont that will be the time jesus comes to save us. I be;eive because just look outside! nature and look at yourself some big bang couldnt have made everything the way it is. it couldnt have made our bodies so perfect to where our noses are in the right place and our inside work so well and work so that we can live! you living is what god gives you everyday. you should thank him for letting you live another day each morning! (not talking to you in particular since you dont beleive. but he brings me good things and sometimes I dont relize it.

Answer #30

and there is this thing that happened to about three people aand one person recently who just died.. I forget his name you can look it up. it is called stigmata whre they got the wounds of crhrist (holes in there hands and feet) because they prayed to suffer like jesus. I think that is proof but yeah you say that he hasnt brought anything to you. it is your own fault what bad things happen to you. not saying this in a mean pushy way

Answer #31

Many of us don’t believe in (any) god, simply due to lack of evidence of one. You’re far from alone in that respect.

@flowerchild “it is your own fault what bad things happen to you”

And that is one of the most loathsome things to ever come from abrahamaic theology. It leads to a blame-the-victim mentality that has contributed to, amongst other atrocities, thousands of years of suppression of women, blaming them instead of the perpetrators when they’re sexually abused, mistreatment of the ill, mentally ill, and deformed and blaming rather than helping those born into less fortunate positions than ourselves.

Answer #32

flowerchild- Maybe maybe not but I believe he did save my dad. And so your lil smart a$$ is trying to say I’m a bad person huh? I might not have religion up to my eye brows like most pple do, but doesn’t mean it’s my fault. ;) Every one is a sinner and I am too but if he dosn’t bring gd to me now it will happen! And if you come to through your smart a$$ bombs, than go to some 1 else! ;) and the part “it is your own fault what bad things happen to you”

so your gonna say that if some 1 gets raped that it’s her fault? You blame the victim?

Well hell to you honey!!

Answer #33

Answer #34
