I believe SO many things Fryedaddy! \n\nOk, I'm an atheist.  I believe it's very important that we believe in things that are likely true because we have a very short life on this earth.  I want to believe in things that are true, no matter how painful, than things that are untrue but just make me feel cozy.\n\nIf I chose my reality on what made me happiest...right now Ewan McGregor and Gerard Way are harboring killer crushes on me.  :D

I believe because Jesus changed my life. I was an atheist who found God after reluctantly visiting church a few times. I used to struggle with crippling depression and feelings of hopelessness. It's hard to even imagine those times not. My life has done a 180. All of my dreams have come true and I've moved on to new ones. I have actual friends and many more than I ever had before. I appreciate my family and I see thier love for me. My life is full. I rarely have time to get bored. Jesus did all this for me. He introduced me to God and the blessings haven't stopped flowing since. That's all the proof I need. That's all I need to believe.

Of course I believe in God, silly boy. I just don't choose to be Christian. I'm a Non Denominational Happy Pagan Person. God and I keep organized religion out of our relationship. It simplifies matters greatly.

Because that would defeat the purpose of free will.  We are given the choice in what we believe and how we live.  God does not have to prove his existence.. you either believe in Him or you don't.. your choice.  But I will tell you one thing.. I don't believe in organised religion.. I tried it and it didnt' work for me.. but I DO have a strong and abiding faith in God.  I cannot do otherwise.. every single time in my life when I was so far down there was no where else to go, I prayed and God lifted me right up again.. always.. EVERY time.. If I have nothing else in my life at all.. I have my faith, and that is more than enough.

I do believe in God, I see Him in His creation. I have faith in His mercy and his love to us humans.

Hi, I am Rational Spirituality,\n\nI believe in God, because I was given an entirely logical and coherent explanation about Him and about the Universe, which I can relate to in my every day life and experience.\n\nYou may access Rational Spirituality on the Dhaxem website.

Having faith allows people to believe in something fantastic and beyond their reach. It gives them a feeling of power and belonging to something greater than themselves. Instead of wondering the what, when and how of our existence, faith gives people the opportunity to find the missing pieces of the puzzle. As for me I don't need to find out where I came from or where I'm going, whats important is the here and now.

No, I don't believe in any gods. I have never experienced or perceived anything at all that makes me think a god exists. It isn't possible for me to believe in something that has no evidence for it, that would be like me believing there is a flying cow in this room with me now.\n\nI'm perfectly satisfied with my lack of belief because it isn't contradicted by anything that I've come across. It wouldn't bother me if a god did exist, I would be quite satisfied with that too if that was where the evidence took me. It isn't though, so I continue lacking belief.

I believe in G-d.\n\nNo one can tell you why you should believe. Just do what G-d says, what He commands, later you will find out why.\n\n\nBut I believe in G-d because He told us to.

Yes, if you didn't question His existance every now and then, then I would have to question whether you believe in Him or are just following what others have told you to believe. Questioning is a part of being human - curiostity, you must think logically and a lot of matters to do with good are not always logical, but I think that these matters are outside of our realm of understanding and I figure that it may be for the best. So yes I believe in God (don't really fear Him as much as some people) but I think it is healthy to question His existance to create a better, stronger belief.

I believed in god very much.  Bible camp counsellor.  On the bible quiz team.  Memorized books of the bible.  I went to a Baptist Bible College to study the bible in depth.  Imagine my surprise when the "small little holes" in the bible became huge GAPING holes when studied in the original languages.  It was the last thing I expected to happen at bible college.\n\nAfter a few years of trying to hold onto my faith, it vanished all together.  I tried shutting myself in a closet and praying every night.  To stop "thinking" and just will myself to believe.  Nothing worked.\n\nBasically, the first thing to go was "the bible isn't correct."  After that it was the morality of god (eternal punishment for a finite sin?  All of humanity being punished for a chick munching on fruit?)\n\nEventually, getting a degree from a "secular" university in history helped me think my way out of religion.  \n\nHope that is what you were lookin for.
