Question: Few questions about God!.!?
First I would point out that I really am atheist!. This question concerns only God(impartial), so lets leave behind all that Budha , Shiva, Jesus, Mohamed, Yehova stuff out!.
1) How would you reason if God did exist and how would you prove it, not using bible or anything written nor having anyevidence or knowledge about him existing!.
2)If it was purely a matter of choice what would you ′prefere and why, God to exist or not exist!.
3) What is your definition of God!.
4) How does Gods existence influence your thinking and actions!.
5) Is God alone an asnwer to our problems or its religion that is the answer!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well im an atheist too, but i like playing both fields, its important not to be one sided too!. But i feel uncomfortable using I, so il use A instead of I!.ehe So here goes!.
1!. to believe in god needs no reason, that is why faith is there!. A dont need proof for his existence, god is not an object!. god is god!.
2!. A would like god to exist!. ( but I dont think its possible!.eheh)
3!. as god said, I am what I am!. god is god!. god is the alpha and the omega!.
4!. god gave me the gift of thinking, A will use it my own way, which is god's way
5!. god is not the answer, A is the answer, god put the problem there for A to deal with, and god did this for my own sake!.
Wow, that was interesting!.eheheWww@QuestionHome@Com
1) I think firstly there could be a "god" there could have been a "god" particle that started off the chain of big bangs!. On the other hand i don't know!.!.
2)I'd prefer if god was real, everyone would believe in him and all that!. and they wouldn't be afraid of dying!.
3) My definition of god is, a supreme "beings" or "Object" that's a creator!?
4) Sometimes, i have a guilty conscience sometimes i think that's the big "G" man telling me something is wrong like
5) No, different religions believe in different things!. for example!. Muslims think that their god is the actuall "god" on the other had christians "god" is their main god!. so its really difficult even though they all relate to the same thing!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

God is the shortened form of good !.It is a symbolic representation of anything which is good !. If we understand that , then there is no need to prove anything !. Let us be good and God will be with in our mind !.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Let me answer your questions one by one:
1) The universe is a result of an intelligent architecture in all of its aspects!. It is impossible that billions and billions of casualties occurred at once to give birth to such a complex and perfectly organizes universe!. Just take a look at yourself, how your body and mind work and interact withing yourself and with the external world!. Similarly take a look at evolution; your computer needs to be replaced with a latest version every few years with a new one if you want to follow the pace of the world, but nature doesn't need to recreate itself every time the environment changes or it is required to respond to some circumstances, it evolves itself!. That is another evidence that it requires intelligence to organize such a complex nature!. By simply observing the environment around you and how the universe works, you will at some point reach the same conclusion that I reached, the Universe is not a result of trillions of casualties that occurred simultaneously but it is a result of a great mind and intelligence workout!. That great mind is God!.
2) I don't need to choose for God to exist or not!. I know that He does EXIST and the entire universe is the evidence for his existence!. As I tried to shortly explain above, he has given us the biggest evidence for his existence, The Universe!.
3) He is the creator of the Universe!.
4) I have something in common with God, Intelligence!. That is what in some religions it is expressed as God's image!. I try to use that intelligence with wisdom and responsibility!.
5) He is the answer to our problems if we are able to read between the lines, meaning if we use intelligence in solving our problems then that is God's way!. Religions are different interpretations of God's identity!. The people around you have different opinions about you, some think you are a good person, others think otherwise!. Religions are like that, except that this time the one in question is not you but God, but that will never change him, so it shall not influence you!.

1) I simply look at the world that surrounds me!. There has been absolutely no satisfactory science that proves that the world came into existence spontaneously!. You would not look at a brilliant piece of art or sculpture and be lead to believe that is just spontaneously created itself!. The earth is a complicated, harmonious, piece of art that was intelligently designed!.
2) I would prefer God to exist!. Otherwise, I'm stuck with imperfect humans as my best friend!. :) (I love you guys!)
3) My definition of "God" is the Almighty creator of the universe and those things in the universe!. (And his name is JEHOVAH! Sorry, kinda broke the rules of your question!)
4) Because I am accountable to the God I serve, I follow his standards that he has laid out!. I stops me from engaging in the abuse of drugs and alcohol and stops me from risking my health with sex outside of my monogamous marriage!. I strive to be forgiving of other's faults, non-judgmental, loving, and sincere!. All these things are because I am accountable to a God that does indeed exist!. All his requirements are helpful and improve my quality of life and my relationships with those in the world!.
5) "Religion" so to speak is not the answer!. God is the answer!. Unfortunately the only way to know who God is, is by reading his word the Bible!. Because you don't believe the bible or that God wrote it or in God at all (sheesh!), that will be difficult in explaining!. However, I encourage you to consider why you don't believe the Bible!. I don't blame you for being turned of by what is called "Christianity," but the Bible is wonderful, even if the people who claim to follow it aren't!. Examine the Bible yourself!. I would encourage you to read the book "THE BIBLE: GOD'S WORD OR MAN'S!?" published by Jehovah's Witnesses!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
1) The best answers lie in real life accounts and testimonies of atheists-turned-believers!. These people are like you before, as in they totally reject the notion of God or even the existence of gods!. Thus they did their research to disprove the bible, to disprove any claims that there is a God and look where that has led them!? They believed in God in the end when they realise that the truth simply can't be discounted!
2) I would choose to have a God and to believe in him!. Simply because it is easier to have someone to derive your strength from, somone who is powerful and yet who loves you so much it hurts to see him turn your eyes away from him!. We are humans after all!.
3) This question would warrant a really long answer but my brief take on it would be: He is someone who is right there from the beginning and who will be with us till the end!. He is the one who created everything, including the universe!. He is the one who loves us unconditionally and who expects nothing in return, except for us to believe in Him!.
4) I become more confident knowing that Im not that insignificant after all!.
5) Sorry to say this but i think this is a lame question!. Religion centres around God and God is the reason why we call the belief in Him religion!. The two are so closely tied together so i don't know why you would think that they are different at all!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
1!. "god" is an open term with a somewhat flexible definition- to prove god's existense, i would start by defining the term as something which was not beyond the scope of what i could rationally prove
2!. some people's definition of god i would prefer not to exist; i have no opinion about the thing itself, just some people's conceptions of it
3!. if i use the term "god', i like to think of it representing, simply, all that is!. the universe may well be a life form, as our bodies are made up of smaller parts and inhabited by bacteria and such, and our subatomic particles have lots of empty space between them!.!.!. it's not a particularly functional definition, but it serves either way to think of there being or not being a god!.
4!. i would not be able to tell whether or not god's existence influences my thinking and actions, but the concepts my family and community have of god makes life more complicated than it needs to be, i think
5!. our problems need to be confronted and answered directly by us human beings, not shrugged off onto god or religionWww@QuestionHome@Com
