Believers: In your opinion, what is the probability that God does not exist?

If you were asked to put a figure on the likelihood that God does not exist, what would you say? I don't expect it to be very high: but I would be interested to know what a sample of the theists represented here would go for.

    Well even though people are saying that it is zero chance, you still can't rule out that idea. Because people believe that science is fact...they think that God is zero chance. But you must not forget that even Science relies on beliefs, not real hard facts.

    Take for instance sub-atomic particles, scientists can't physically see them but they think its there because of logic. All what the scientists base their knowledge on are theories not fact.

    Thus everything being called 'The theory of...'

    I doubt that God does not exist but I can't assign a probability to the other percentage.

    O God exists.

    He does not exist because we say He does; He is independent of our proclamations. He does not exist because we want Him to exist; He is independent of our desires. He does not exist because in our ignorance, we insert God in order to explain the unknown; He is independent of our ignorance. No. God exists because He is. We Christians have experienced Him, felt Him, and know Him. We can see His hand in our lives. We see the circumstances of life move and be moved to bring us to answers that we know are from Him. We sense Him our prayers and our lives. We see Him work in the lives of others. We watch as He answers prayer and confirms in our own hearts His love for us. We know He exists because He exists.

    The Bible speaks of God and does not defend His existence. It simply asserts it. Sometimes there are simply things you cannot prove to someone else, but you know. Yes, this is subjective, but it is often true.

    I believe in God.

    God is ETERNAL. Without beginning and without end.

    God has no beginning.

    God was not created in the beginning.

    God is great.

    God is powerful.

    God is spirit.

    God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are One and simultaneously each person of the Holy Trinity is fully One.

    May God bless you.

    GOD exist only when you let him . if you think he does then so it is

    the breath life came from ?

    the grain of sand

    the leaves that fall

    the hyenena bawl

    did they come from man

    of was it the higher powers command

    Source(s): When viewed without the twin distortions of like and dislike, love and hate, all forms, all effects, all causes are experienced as Brahman (Divinity) only. When the vision is affected by love or hate, each form, each effect and cause, appears different from the rest. When feelings are calm and balanced, the many is experienced as the one. An agitated mind can never have a single vision. It runs along contrary lines, so it experiences the world, nature, and the cosmos as separate from God. Such vision also creates division. Serene vision reveals unity. As is the vision, so is the impression, the view of the world.

    Those who truly obey Christ and serve God have daily evidence for their God, and their Lord, Jesus, existing.

    If you called your father or mother on the phone and talked to them - what is the probability of them being alive? It is kind of like that.

    I'll remember this question and the responses next time a believer tells me I'm "closeminded" [sic] for not accepting his vague claims at face value.

    This is not the kind of claim that can be measured in terms of probability.
