Do You Believe In God?

Okay I'm just curious if you believe in God or not!
Because I've spoken to a few people on Ryl about it and they've said they can't believe a god exists because of some of the things they've gone through..
So please help me out here =]



What We Are Is The Sum of One Thousand Lies.
What We Know; Is Almost Nothing At All.
But We Are What We Are Until The Day We Die.
Or Til' We Don't Have The Strength To Go On.

*hopes this thread wont get locked*

I don't believe in God, I'm not sure what I believe in to be honest.
I just find the whole thing a bit too....far fetched for me.

Why would it get locked? :S

I kinda believe in God, but I dont think of him in the way that he loves everyone, I think of him more of some dude who you gotta earn the respect of and stuff.. Then he'll reward you after really hard work!

I did Religious studies A level and we learnt so many theories that tried to prove and disprove the existence of God.
ill try and remember some if youre at all interested.

I dont think i believe in God, but then at the same time, its strange to think you go through an entire life time and then thats it. youre just switched off.

There are lots of things I believe in.
There are lots of things I don't believe in.

And God is something I don't even consider thinking about being real or not. I don't believe it at all.
Sorry to people who do but I just don't.

I don't believe. Although the teleological argument made me wonder. Learning Sciences kinda makes you wonder why everything seems so perfectly fine tuned and just seems so..clever? I don't know. But still, I stand by Darwinist views.

I think God is a fairy. That's my true belief and that we are all fairys when we go to heaven. I do believe in him but when I feel suicidal and disturbed I question myself if there really is a God because if there was why is he letting this happen to me? But I think God has put me through all this to make me who I am and I am a good person. I think, I hope. Sorry, ramble over.



Someday I'll wish upon a star
and wake up
where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
away above the chimney tops
that's where you'll find me

Just so you know I am not Christian, I'm not anything but that is my God and that's what I believe in.

I dont believe in god, my belief system is just "everything happens for a reason", which may seem to be a contradiction but ohwell.

There are times to stay put, and what you want will come to you.
But there are times to go out into the world and find such a thing for yourself.
I aint no abacus but you can count on me.

I don't believe in God.
I would desperately like to. I sometimes think it would make things easier sometimes. That all this is happening for a reason. I just can't bring myself to believe it.

No.
I have such a huge problem with religion, but here's not really the place to elaborate on that.



How many ticks left in that clockwork heart?

I fully believe in God! I'm a strong Christian. I'm active in my church and on the mission field. I went to New Orleans for two weeks, hopefully going to Nepal next year. I think I read somewhere that politics and religion weren't allowed (I could be wrong), so that's why most people wouldn't know right off. Either way, this up here now. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.

Just to post the actual rules, for those who are wondering:

Quote:
Please do not make comments that overly push any religious belief (or lack thereof) onto any other members, or make any religious comments that could be offensive to others. It is not fair to judge and discredit others' beliefs - whatever they may be. If you see a religious comment and disagree, please just turn away and refrain from responding.

For example : "X will save you from self-harm!", "Your God sucks", "how can you believe all that? I don't"
