Heres a scale of faith Dawkins created, I think it will help your thread OP 1. Strong theist. 100% probability of God. In the words of C.G. Jung: "I do not believe, I know." 2. De facto theist. Very high probability but short of 100%. "I don't know for certain, but I strongly believe in God and live my life on the assumption that he is there." 3. Leaning towards theism. Higher than 50% but not very high. "I am very uncertain, but I am inclined to believe in God." 4. Completely impartial. Exactly 50%. "God's existence and non-existence are exactly equiprobable." 5. Leaning towards atheism. Lower than 50% but not very low. "I do not know whether God exists but I'm inclined to be skeptical." 6. De facto atheist. Very low probability, but short of zero. "I don't know for certain but I think God is very improbable, and I live my life on the assumption that he is not there." 7. Strong atheist. "I know there is no God, with the same conviction as Jung knows there is one." I think both stance 1 and 7 is completely irrational

Dawkins' scale is very useful, and I agree with the idea that 1 and 7 are completely irrational. I am an agnostic myself

God is in complete control. Cause and effect show this. All people know this way down deep in their subconscious minds. There is no atheism. There is only fanciful belief that there is desire to be atheistic.

God is the ultimate power that made and controls the universe. We humans and our earth is just an example of gods creation. There's still a lot we have no idea about. God is the invisible force that makes the universe run.

I read the Bible few times cover to cover, most of Talmud and Quran. I knew there was no God after Genesis but I continued reading just for fun to see how backwards people were. Anyway, Earth is a globe, we have evolved from a common ancestor that monkeys evolved from, our universe and space and time was created 13.5 billions years ago. End of story. Humans made up their gods in their perspective. They may be wrong. But it don't mean there is no god at all. There can be one, different from what we've been talking about.

every religion has a god, and so does its form and its embodiment, there are also many that can not be logic, but with the existence of that belief, man confused and hung everything to their respective god

Not really. Some modern religions believe in heaven or nature. People are generally confuse about purpose of life, not God. Religion should give us internal guidance and connect us with God. In the past many religions have been compromised by their actions and corruption and because of such reasons members left them.

Not really, Jainism, Toaism, Buddhism don't have gods. They do however have bhikku's, bodhisattva's, buddha's and avolakitesvara's that are indistuingishable from ''ordinary'' people but have achieved a level of understanding about the world, themselves and their relation to it. Understanding what an ethical/moral life entails and how to transcend the world/desire and suffering. These exact ''religions'' were founded out of the desire to explore and understand reality without any god, gods or god centric views. I think every nondualistic religion is without god. There's also epicurianism and naturalistic pantheism Plenty of religions to choose from that come without god!

The Quran describes God as being fully aware of everything that happens in the Universe, including private thoughts and feelings, and asserts that one can not hide anything from God.

Do you have any proofs as to why God is not real? God is real and you can see effect of his power ( earth , galaxy)

God is the one who created all of us in this world. God want us to live in a world that is surrounded by happiness and love to avoid any problem. God is always in our side even we are committing mistakes. We should give thanks to him always by means of praying. God is good all the time. We should always do good things to other people because that is what God want us to do.

Due to the huge number of religions and varieties of God, sooner or later a person will have doubts about his existence. I think the universe itself can control all beings.

You should read the whole evolutionary theory . After that, you can certainly realize that life can happen without a so -called creator. Science can give you the answers that you have been searching for.

God in Christianity is the eternal being who created and preserves all things. Christians believe God to be both transcendent (wholly independent of, and removed from, the material universe) and immanent (involved in the world).Christian teachings of the immanence and involvement of God and his love for humanity exclude the belief that God is of the same substance as the created universe but accept that God's divine Nature was hypostatically united to human nature in the person of Jesus Christ, in an event known as the Incarnation.

God is the Creator of all things. He is the Lord Almighty. He is the everlasting Father, Prince of Peace and Redeemer. He's also the Savior of all mankind. His name is Jesus. He is the one who died on the cross to save us from our sins. He has the full control in our lives. He is the Blesser of blessings. He is also the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. He is the reason why I'm living. There is only one God and His name is Jesus!

Me as a christian I have my own faith and that faith is centered on worshipping a libing God. I don’t have any qualms about atheists and in fact have friends that are also like these. I think that hod is real and my proof is the bible, my faith and the fact that I am living in here.

I think every religion is different but God is one.The name God is given to the spirit or being who is worshipped as the creator and ruler of the world, especially by Jews, Christians, and Muslims.The perfect and all-powerful spirit or being that is worshipped especially by Christians, Jews, and Muslims as the one who created and rules the universe.Actually, God is creator all thing.We can't see but feel everything.

Well, that's exactly the point for me as well. Everything couldn't have sprung out of nowhere randomly. Someone or something i'm sure was there orchestrating things even before we existed to make things work harmoniously to support life.
