    Yes.

    Why? Because I don't need to see Him to see that He is the working to make my life better and that the world is His Creation.

    I used to be an atheist, and my life was horrible and meaningless. Coming back to Christianity was the best decision I ever made.

    No, because there has never been anything presented as even being the slightest bit of proof.

    However, if I were to suspend my disbelief for a minute and pretend there was a God, and in this case the Christian God. Then I would have to be willing to accept that there was a being out there so psychotic that it decided to flood the entire earth killing almost every living creature on it. I'm not sure about you, but I don't think I would want to accept a being that evil as my savior even if I knew without a doubt He existed. I think I'd prefer to just go to Hell and hang with Satan who has killed practically nobody.

    I basically am past believing and more like know God does indeed for a fact exists, I am not religious, I am a Spiritual Christian. I have come to know God as totally AWESOME and the very definition of cool. It's the highest honor and privilege serving the ultimate extreme.

    1. Yes.

    2. I would be insane not to.

    3. Religion: Christianity Denomination: Lutheran.

    4. I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth.

    And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell. On the third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From thence He will come to judge the living and the dead.

    I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Christian Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

    Men cannot say they do not know about God. From the beginning of the world, men could see what God is like through the things He has made. This shows His power that lasts forever. It shows that He is God. (Romans 1:20)

    MARANATHA! Come, Lord Jesus, COME!

    Yes definitely.

    My physics background tells me the Universe and the atom are too orderly not to believe in some sort of guided creation. There is too much of a miracle in something as common as the Carbon atom not to believe in God.

    I believe in god because I have read many credible accounts of people's past-life regressions, near-death experiences, channeled messages, mediums, etc. Such as this:

    In 1980, a woman, Catherine, was being hypnotized by psychiatrist Dr Brian Weiss as a solution to her uncontrollable anxiety and nightmares. Unexpectedly, while under hypnosis, Catherine began to narrate events from a previous lifetime and convey messages from the "in between lives" state. These are some of the messages she relayed while under hypnosis:

    “There are different levels of learning, and we must LEARN some of them in the flesh. We must feel the pain. When you're in physical state in the flesh, you can feel pain; you can hurt. In spirit form you do not feel pain; there is only happiness, a sense of well-being.”

    "We all must LEARN certain attitudes while we're in physical state. CHARITY, HOPE, FAITH, LOVE - we must all know these things and know them well."

    "Our task is to LEARN, to become god-like through knowledge. We know so little. By knowledge we approach God, and then we can rest. Then we come back to teach and help others."

    Many Lives Many Masters - Dr Brian Weiss

    A graduate of Columbia University and Yale Medical School, Brian L. Weiss M.D. is Chairman Emeritus of Psychiatry at the Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami.

    I don't believe in God(s).

    I do follow some of the teachings of The Buddha. Buddhism has been in my family for a very long time - so I was birthed into it.

    Yes, I believe in God. I'm a Christian. I have faith and everything makes sense to me. There has to be a purpose why we are here.
