Are you an atheist or a believer?
Either way, why do did you choose that path, and do you ever question you believes, or are you certain of your choice?
personally, i am a believer in god, i think it makes more sense to me to think of this world as created by something divine, so as humans, rather than it being an accident. I also think that it gives me more comfort and security to know that my life has a purpose, and that i'm not just a molecule in a universal chemical reaction.
I dont mean any offense to atheists, i respect them, and i understand that my choice can not be fully proven and that its based entirely on choice.

I do believe in God. Ever since I was little, I've been raised a Christian. I've slipped up a lot of times, even questioned His existence. But, I think that's just apart of our relationship with Him. Asking questions can help us grow closer to Him. I still come up short, on a daily basis, but, I know He's always there, always willing to forgive me.
I personally don't see how someone could not believe in God. A lot of the things I've been raised to believe make sense. I understand that bible is thousands of years old, therefore making it hardly believable. If they just took the time to read the New Testament, though, I think it would really open their eyes.

Hi there Grimze!
I firmly believe in the existence of a Supreme Being... I do believe in God. I have always believed in His existence and I will forever believe in that. I grew up in a Catholic family and I am very thankful of all the things my parents taught me about God. There is nothing nor no one who can give us unconditional love but God alone.

Dear Grimze Obviously I am a strong believer of GOD. In my opinion GOD means a superpower who controls all activities it works as a light in the dark. Without his blessings it is not possible for me to go ahead. Whenever I am disturbed or puzzled I immediately take the shelter of GOD, I feel peace and calm. In my life so many things happened in which the existence of god has been proved.

I have no reason to bleive on something, no one has proof that it exists. I also think that evolution makes better sence than something supernatural creates a world out of sand. Ofcourse everyone can belive what they want. Just the people who seem to think wrong gets to the loony bin.:/

God is a very confusing word. It doesn't have one meaning. Every person uses it to mean something different, and every person's version of God is different. Owing to the confusion and distortion with regard to this word, I prefer not to use the word God.
I don't believe in any religion. According to me, religions are created by men to gain control over society, particularly women. So, I don't like any religion.
However, I do believe there is a life force in this universe. Some mighty IT that is responsible for everything. Some power that keeps creation going. Maybe the power is creation itself. Whatever it is, I do not know it. But I do feel it and believe in it.
Cheers and happy mylotting

Yes i am a strong believer in God. From small i have been raised up by my parents being taught and spoken about god. And as you rightly said it does make a lot of sense that we were created by something divine rather than being an incident. i go to church every Sunday for mass and pry to god.
Sometimes when i have prayed my prayers have actually come true and if they have not i know god does it for the best of my interests. Also there are many people who have seen signs of god, miracles being taken place and things like that and have shared their experiences with us. So yes i do believe very much that a god exists.
As for atheist i have friends like that but i totally respect their decision. all are free human beings to follow what ever they like.
