I thinkthat god did not create men, but men created god ... so that might answer a lot of your questions. I don't know if there is a god, no one does ...

I am sorry but believing in God is a personal choice and experience that each of us make. YOU may have chosen not to believe in God but you cannot say no one knows if God exist because those of us who do know KNOW HE exist. We have found him, but we cannot make you find him, you will have to do that on your own, we can only share our beliefs with you. You can accept or reject, its your choice.

amarkovi you said you do know if there is a God. It appears you are an agnostic. Atheists are thought to be closed-minded because they deny the existence of gods, whereas agnostics appear to be open-minded because they do not know for sure. IMO you are just sitting on the fence in case there really is a God you do not want completely deny Him and therefor not quality to reap the benefits of a believer.

I said I do not know if there is god ... I also think that people believe there is a god - they don't know - I cannot say there is or is not, and no one else can either. Believing and knowing are two completely different things.

This gives some excellent answers to your complaints: Letter from God to Man Hey There, how, how’s it going? Long time no see. I know I haven’t been around much lately But…it didn’t seem like you wanted me to be The last time I sent down a message you nailed it to the cross So I figured I’d just leave you to it, let you be your own boss But I’ve been keeping an eye on you, I have, and it’s amazing how you’ve grown. With your technological advances and the problems you’ve overthrown, And all the beautiful art you’ve created with such grace and such finesse, But I admit there are a few things I’m afraid have impressed me less. So I’m writing to apologize for all the horrors committed in my name, Although that was never what I intended, I feel I should take my share of the blame. All the good I tried to do was corrupted when organised religion got into full swing, What I thought were quite clear messages were taken to unusual extremes. My teachings taken out of context to meet the agendas of others, Interpretations taken to many different ways and hidden meanings discovered Religion became a tool, for the weak to control the strong With all these new morals and ethics, survival of the fittest was gone No longer could the biggest man simply take whatever he needed ’cause damnation was the price if certain rules were not heeded Some of the deeds committed in my name just made me wonder were I went wrong. Back at the start when I created this, the foundation seemed so strong. See all the elements were already here, long before I began, I just kind of put it all together I didn’t really think out a long-term plan. I made the sun an appropriate distance and laid the stars across the sky So you could navigate the globe or simply watch the sun rise I covered the earth with plants and fruits, Some for sustenance and some for beauty I made the sun shine and the clouds rain so their maintenance wasn’t your duty I tried to give each creature its own attributes without making them enveloped I gave you all you all your own space to grow and in your own way space to develop I didn’t know such development would cause rifts and jealousy Cause you to war against each other and leave marks on this planet indelibly You see, I wasn’t really the creater, I was just the curator of nature I want to get something straight with homosexuals right now: I don’t hate ya I was a simple being that happened to be the first to wield such powers I just laid the ground, it was You that built the towers It was You that invented bombs, and the fear that comes with them And it was You that invented money, and the corrupt economic systems You invented terms like just-war and terms like friendly fire And it was You that didn’t know when to stop digging deeper, when to stop building higher It was You that exhausted the resources I carefully laid out on this earth, And it was You that even saw these problems coming but accredited them little worth It was You that used my teachings for your own personal gain And it was You that committed such tragedies, even though they were in my name So I apologize for any mistakes I made, and when my words misconstrued But this apology’s to mother nature, cause I created you! http://markproffitt.com/2010/01/19/letter-from-god-to-man/

The Bible has many references to killing those who do not think as you or who are different ... is that good teaching, should that be taught in school? Would that teaching have prevented the bad things you mentioned? I doubt it ... I believe the key is the family ... people are formed as individuals from early age and what we learn and acquire as kids at home will guide us through life - and that teaching has nothing to do with religion! Also I'm pretty sure Hurricane Katrina killed many non-believers as well as believers...so I really don't get Anne Grahams explanation.

When we examine the universe, our wonderful earth and life starting and evolving it is only human to think that there must be some power, force or being behind the whole thing and it is very likely that there is. However a closed examination makes it obvious that if there is such a being that being is not interested in the welfare or survival of any single human being nor for that matter in the survival of an particular species. Bear in mind that over 95% of the species that have existed on earth are now extinct. The only good a pray will do is to comfort the person making that pray and if they believe that some mysterious being is listening helping them to find strength within themselves to make things better. So when someone brutally kills another person or persons there is no "god" who is going to punish them or stop them

Yes maidangela our wonderful earth, our wonderful universe is bound to change that is part to evolution nothing stand still things change from day to day, climate change and all that entitle it means some species will disappear humans probably will be the last because humans have a great capacity of survival[ oh well some times anyway] but I believe is all part of a pattern and this pattern was set out at the begining of time... any way that is my opinion... but there is much more I would like to say or discuss but it would be too long so I will leave it at that.

I definitely do believe that there is God and that he does exist in this universe. I know that there are a lot of bad things that we see in the world, but I think it is equally important to acknowledge the fact that there is also a lot of good things that happen in the world. By good things I am talking about the people that will help out someone that is less fortunate than them. I am talking about the fact that most of us have friends that would give us the shirt off of their back. God definitely does exist in my opinion.

You sometimes only think God is not there. That means sometimes you think he is there also. Be clear in your expression,I am having doubt. Now - if you believe God is there then I may not continue, but if you say God is not there they I may continue writing to you. Tell me - I would like to clear your doubt........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do not have any doubt - because of your discussion I wanted to share with you that God exists and he is doing his duty perfectly up to the fraction of a second. I can call that precise. Just observe keenly and you will know that - but it needs experience and I can say it is not that easy. Man has himself become cruel because of the latest developments. there is so much to be discussed on this topic. Any how still you have doubt - tell me.

I believe in God. God has been doing the best for humans but people prefer to believe in the devil. all depends from the man himself. if a strong faith, humans would not be easily influenced by the devil,

bad things happen because bad things must. it is the essence of Balance that is a necessity. without bad, there is no good.. without dark.. light doesnt exist. BOTH edges of the blade are needed to Balance the scale. simply having bad doesnt negate the existance of Deity. this world isnt heaven or the summerlands (or whatever name you wish to put upon the afterlife) afterall.. its LIFE.

Hi siliguri Im sorry you feel this way Im sure there is a supreme Being out there somewhere some people call it God to me is an entity a formless power that is there all around us... I do dispair about how many awful people are in society... but I also know the mayority are good fellows human beings... we need to remember that we all have a choice we can be good or bad we have the capacity to think is been given to us so we can make choices... what we choose to do is our responsability and ours only and at the end of the day our choices will mark who we are and what place we have in society.

No, actually i dont think so. The abscence of God is what have derive into this problems. If people had God in mind more often, maybe this things would not happen.

I am a strong believer of God. However, I have felt many a time why God has not given power to man ,to think only good thing in life and do only good thing in life.Though, we are told of hell and heaven, still , bad things are happening. Happy myLotting.

If you're one to belive in God in some form. He has given humankind free will, and therefore will not interfere in our choices. Why would god give us free will if he's gonna step in and take it away? and as far as praying, doesnt god have a divine plan? and isnt your prayer gonna alter HIS plan? I'm not saying anything to start a fight or disrespect ANY point of view, just asking questions in return.

It's not a question of does God really exist or not, that these stupid people doing crimes and foolishness..it's the question of behavior and stability of mind and heart. It's just part of realities in life that these kind of people exist. Although, to answer that question as for my stand, I would say no God exists. People created their own God in themselves. Most people would build their religions, organizations, movements, cult and other groups and claim different God with different beliefs, different styles of worships..which among them is true? What matters most is you live a life without doing injustices to others. Meanness and any part of crimes are absolutely bad, biblically or legally! Stay logical, happy, peaceful and just to others. Although if you chose to believe in God, then please stay firm in your belief and don't believe in other things but your God. Because most of the people mixing up believing in God at the same believing in superstitious.. it should not be that way!

of course there is God, a good, loving, caring, understanding God. actually, i am aware that some people are not a believer, some are not believing because of unfortunate events happened with him/her or their family, but we should not, all this evil things as well as those struggles and problems we have are in His knowledge, but these are only part of life and survival. He only test us how we deal and how we handle things. for me the only thing to do is pray and start believing. god is always hears even the word not utter by mouth but by heart.. believe and glorify Him...

Its very understandable the way u feel but remember this the devil exist as well and there are so many lessons in life to be learned good and bad so its kind of a balance there is God which is good look around u observe how we as humans exist animals the moon the sun trees babies existing inside another human being do u ever wonder how all of this comes about it wasnt man made..... So there has to be a God now there is the devil who of course is bad crimes adultry liars murderers he is the one who instills the negative in Gods people and creations it us who choose what road we follow those who choose the Devils pass are most likely killers liars rapist whatever u name it and those who follow God are the total opposite BUT! those who are undecided are definately gonna go through both! its a constant cycle of good and bad and of course it all depends on what u truly believe! :)

I feel that seeing wrongs in the world doesn't mean that the deity you worship or believe in doesn't exist. But I do believe that you maybe imagining your deity sort of like "human" that thinks feels and responds. I do not believe such a thing exists. Your deity is in your heart and will always be there so stop looking to the sky or a religious place for answers and look inside yourself. When people stop believing in themselves then they cant believe in others and they lose there way. Don't lose yours. -Sorry for my atheism coming out, to any religious folk out there.

Well, God has nothing to do with us as we believe. According to me God is just a super power above us and i dont pray him anything, just thanks for what has he given. And criminal activities, he will punish him in a different way. So I understand your frustration, dont pray asking and if we dont get, we will feel bad. Let us solve the problems ourselves.

I thought of that too before. Just have faith. I believe the reason is GOD wanted us to have freewill. To think about ourselves, learn from our mistakes and discover how to become a good person.

No friend GOD is thier always otherwise how one man is having huge money and other is not able to get even food, it's all result of his own karma, keep faith in GOD he has made the world like this only, u just do level best, help others as much u can do, thier are unlimited mysteries in the world which are unsolved, even a small organisation can't perform if that is not controlled/governed then how this creature is organised some power is thier behind it, that is cetainly GOD.

You think that GOD doesn't exist because you are only looking at one side. How about looking in the good side there is also people who help others. There are who give without exchange. So i can say too that GOD might really exist. GOD gave us free will to do what we want. Saying that GOD doesn't exist because there are bad people is not enough because there are also good people.

I understand that you are not happy with the violent activities happening all around us and the changing face of world in which there is no love, honesty and trust towards each other. I also get upset and disheartened by seeing the corruption and evil around me but then something great happens. U knw wat dat is...???? GOD comes up to me, grabs me in her cozy arms reassuring me of faith and love towards others...my god is my MOM. Someone has rightly said that God coudnt be everywhere so he gave us moms. To take care of us, to love us, to feed us, to help us grow up, to make us smile, to comfort and understand us when we cry, to hold our hand show us the right direction when we are lost and million other ways in which she tries to fulfil all her responsibiilities and make all our needs, wishes and wants come true. U know we keep praying to god, asking him something or the other...but hav u ever wondered how our moms come to know our wishes even without we telling her. She can listen to your heart. For 9 months, our only universe had been her womb. I owe my everything to my mom and she is my god. she would do anything to protect me from dis hell like world but at the same time she would punish me if i do anything wrong or hurt nyone else. juz think over it dear our mothers all those tasks that we think god will do 4 us...people say god is everywhere because moms are everywhere. be it our species or any other in dis world, moms are everywhere...its because of mothers dat our world has grown exists and will continue to do so. Respect your mothers, everybody and see how the world around u changes...it seems hypothetical but its true...always remember the tings she taught u as a child, be good do good and leave the rest upto her blessings for you. When we grow up, get married we forget her..bt she doesnt complain she still worries 4 u...i would also like to say respect all women coz she's a women too women deserve respect.. people who respect women end up to be successfull in life. People who consider their parents to be GOD are right...juz dat im more attached to my mumma....thats all i have to say!!!!!!!
