The question you asked is one of the greatest problem for monotheists... For starters Satan is never mentioned anywhere in the bible as the evil devilish character everyone imagines.  that idea was created to scare people into converting.  \n\nThe problem with evil is that a roman catholic believes that God is all createing and perfectly good.  Its clear that Evil does exist in this world.  So how can a God that is perfectly good be responseible for evil?  The answer lies in our free will.  If god did not give us the option to choose to be good then we would simply be his puppets.  And a puppet master god is not one that is worth worshiping anyways.  \n\nGod never intended for so much evil to be in this world.  Orginaly in the Garden of Eden there was no evil and man and God enjoyed a loveing relationship.  Then when man commited the orginal sin of eating the apple that will make one like God Evil arose.  The original sin is a representation of Man striveing for power over love of god and this is the root of all evil.  So my answer in a nut shell is God made man and gave us free will, which we used to create evil...

I believe in a "higher power" but am not religious...The difference is that the higher power (God) is interpreted in many different ways but they all have one thing in common..Thats is that they are all MAN MADE..Every religion on earth past and present starts with one persons interpretation of God..This is why there are Christians, Muslims, Hindus and thousands more religions...We are all trying to understand existence and this "higher power" but many of us come to different conclusions...Christianity itself is split into many different denominations because of this very fact..Catholics, Evangelicals, Baptists, Episcopalians there all trying to understand the nature of God but go about it in very different ways...My personal belief is that existence itself is the "higher power"..I do not refer to it as a God but thats my belief and I stick to it..You dont need religion to find God because the concept of God is different for all of us...Thankyou for listening

Male, and normaly, I don't pray, just talk to Him... Used to be catholic, but I no longer believe in organized religion and   I am now interested in Deism. I used to be catholic, but I refuse to believe that God's love is conditional and that he has the time to punish us individually for our sins, so I guess I have my own little religion right now.

Facts ... I believe in "God". I am not able to accept the Christian version of monotheism. I consider it illogical and it makes no sense to me. I do not lie awake at night not believing. The Bible is not perfect. It has been mistranslated by numerous translators in various translations. Christianity is not the worlds longest running religion. There was Judaism and Hinduism and several others prior to 2000 years ago that are still alive and well. You asked for facts. Those are facts. I'm not Christian. That doesn't bother me. You are Christian. That doesn't bother me either. Instead of worrying about others and their relationship with "God" or their lack of same maybe there's something else you need to be looking at? Just a thought. And that's a fact. :-)

You go girl! You believe in whatever you want to, whatever feels right to you. And dont ever let anyone try and tell you your beliefs are wrong, just because they may be different than others.\n\nMe, personally, i believe in GOD. But i dont go to church, or preach, or all that stuff. I believe, and thats all that matters to me. I dont need to put on an 'act' for people to think i am a good Christian or anything. I am who i am.

I don't believe in god . . . but if I did . . . I would give up unbiblical requirements . . . . such as lent, tithe, the cross, trinity . . .etc.

Okay...\n\nSo let's not deal with the "God exists" theory.\n\nHow about the God(s) OTHERS believed in instead.\n\nAre you going to tell me that cause they DIDN'T hear about Christ that THEY were wrong?\n\nHere's something else. MANY religions do NOT believe in Hell. So, how do you explain their beliefs? Are THEY wrong? How do you know? How do you know YOU aren't wrong.\n\nI believe that the WHOLE religion thing as a whole is just messed up.\n\nWhy should ANYONE believe, or pound others in the head to make them believe that what THEY know is right? Who says so? Why are the Baptists right? Or the Buddhists? Or the Jews? The Islamic? The Catholics? The Pagans?\n\nWHy can we not let everyone just go ON with their life. If they are happy, leave them be. If you are happy, just be content.

Yes I definitely believe in Jesus Christ. Without him I would be nothing. With him I can do anything. I love him and he loves me. I believe in God the Eternal Father and in his son Jesus Christ and in the Holy Ghost. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and I am not ashamed of it at all. With him you can be saved and don't wait till the last minute when it is to late.  This life is for you to prove that can return to your Father in Heaven

I believe in the God of the Bible. None of your definitions encapsulated that entirely. Somewhere between 1.and 2.

I believe in God. He's the creator of everything and everyone. That's just my opinion.

i believe in God as in the holy trinity: God, Jesus, and Holy Spirit, i don't know what the NI stuff you're talking about is, it doesn't really make sense, so i'll just tell you that i believe in God because if you look outside, it's the obvious explanation, how else could such complexity happen.\n"From the time the world was created people have seen the earth and sky and all that God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities- his eternal power, and divine nature, so they have no excuse whatsoever for not knowing God."\n-Romans 1:20

Splinterjah (sp?) has no idea what he is talking about. Not to be mean of course, but he doesn't. Catholicism does differ from the mainstream Christian denominations, but it doesn't teach anything false. Catholics do NOT at ALL worship Mary, or any of the other saints. That is just a popular belief that is spread by ingnorant people who really have no idea what Catholicism is. That kinda thing has been going on since the 1500's. Catholics ask Mary and the saints to pray FOR US, just like it says to in the bible. We belive that the during the Eucharistic celebration (communion) the bread and wine really do turn into Jesus, which it also says in the bible. \n\nI don't think anyone in the world has ever prayed to the pope. We might have prayed FOR the pope, but never to him. Thats just ridiculous. The bible (in Matthew) talks about how Jesus gave Peter (the first pope) the "keys to the kingdom" and how what ever Peters says on earth (in reference to religious/moral doctrines) will make a binding compact with heaven. In other words, that means he is infallible, because if it binds with the law of heaven (God), then it has to be infallible, because if God wasn't infallible, the world would cease to be. \n\nAfter Jesus rose back from the dead, The Catholic Church started. JESUS himself started the Catholic Church. Someone said something about the bible saying something about "Christians in Antioch". Well DUH. Who do you think they were? Batists? Methodists? I doubt it, since they (or any other Protestant denomination) didn't come into existance until 1547 (I think thats the right year). Therefore, they must have been Catholics. \n\nIf the Pope is infallible, then that means everything he says and preaches is true (religious-wise) because he is filled with the Holy Spirit, and was given authority by Jesus himself. That means that Catholic doctrine is always in accordance with God in Heaven. \n\nThe bible also says to confess your sins to one another (preists). It never ever says "hey! Don't confess your sins to anybody, and make sure you never go into a thing called a confessional. And also make sure you never follow any kind of tradition, or listen to anything that a holy man says even if he is given authority by Jesus. And definately make sure you don't ask ANYBODY to pray for you, otherwise its a sin, and yes, that does include Mary and the saints."\n\nIt never says anything of the sort. And if anybody tries to prove that different by quoting from the bibe, then they are wrong. You can't just take random verses from the bible with out first looking at the context of which it is taken from. Thats a mistake that everybody makes when trying to refute the Catholic doctrine. \n\nAnd the main that I would say the Protestant churches do that is false is try to prove Catholicism wrong. \n\nBut anyways, I diverge. There is nothing wrong with going to a Catholic Highschool. You already know what you belive in, so it doesn't matter. Of course, you should be open minded. And remember, everyone is going to answer differently in Yahoo!Answers. So my advice to you is to not take ANYBODY'S word for ANYTHING on here. Reasearch all of it for yourself, and make sure that you don't get all of your information from a single biased perspective, which is what I, and everyone else is giving you. \n\nHighschool is highschool. Its all about getting your education, and you shouldn't be worried about anything else. \n\nAnd for the record, there is NO difference between Catholicism and Christianity. There are only differences between the different denominations of Christianity.
