I am aware that we have different beliefs. No matter who your God is, do you believe that he exist?
The first philosophical notion of divinity to be considered here is the conception of God employed by theologians of the Middle Ages. For a thousand years or more, God was described in terms derived from ancient Greek philosophy. Indeed, in Philosophy of Religion courses, God is still usually described in these terms. God was said to be an unmoved mover, eternal, all-knowing and transcendent. Transcendent" here means existing beyond the physical universe, independent of it and outside of space and time. Transcendence is contrasted with immanance; an immanent deity is somehow bound up with the physical universe and would not exist without it. We'll consider an immanent conception later.
This is a great issue in philosophy but still the question is still there. Does God really exist?

Yes, I believe that God exists. I have seen Him do some incredible things for people that was nothing short of a miracle.

I really think God truelly exists. I have no way of proving it. BUt this world and universe had to be made by somebody. It couldn't just appear out of no where.

I believe that everyone should believe in a high power...i believe that god exist because there are things that can't be explain...not by science...and its true..no matter what/who you believe in...in any religion....you should just 'believe' and thats the most important part. its not which religion you have...but that you have 'faith' in someone/something...

We have discussed about this earlier but like what I said earlier, it depends on what level you want to bring this up with. I think that God really exist even if we can't see nor touch him. It's not a matter of questioning whether he is real or not, it's a matter of how strong your faith is and how well do you believe in him. It's not because we can't see nor touch him, he ain't real already. ^^ That is my point of view regarding this matter!

yes i definitely and in all faith believe that God exists. It doesn't matter to me what the philosophers says about reason and logic that GOd doesn't exist. It does not need mind or deep thought to believe that God exist. It's all in the faith and love. God is the reason why we exist and we have no right to question His existence.

I believe that God exists. As you mentioned, there should a great power to control the universe beyond our rationale thinking. The philosophy of God existance earlier had to be based on a very deep thought through a long spiritual journey, then, they came to the conclusion that God exists.

God exists, among us , among everyone because I cant otherwise see any possible answer to all our existence. do you?
he is the supreme creator and coordinator. his ideas and works of marvel are beyond thought. the nature is his best creation. i only wonder why he created us? to destroy his good works?
maybe he has an answer for this as well.
i hope our belief in his existence answers that.
