Because I have faith.

You can't disprove faith with fact just like you can't disprove fact with faith.

applying logic to illogical things?

there's a reason why it's called faith and not science.

The reason people believe in something with no evidence is because they have faith, something that most religions are based on.

It's a tactic they employ, reading the bible that is. See, they figure that if you waste so much time reading it, that you're going to want to believe it. If you don't by the time you're done, you'll realize that you've just wasted tons of time on a poorly written work of fiction, and acknowledging that would be a blow to your pride, unlike any other.

Totally agree with you about this subject. I've learned though it's hopeless to argue with a religious fanatic. Anything you say to them they immedaitlly come back with" your going to hell" blah blah blah.
It's a sad world we live in.

Actually,I'm christian.And the reason why I believe in God is because the universe couldn't create itself by logic.And as for who created God,I think God had no creator,he existed before the beginning of time,and our finite human minds just can't comprehend all the facts about God,like where he came from.That's what I believe.

I beilive that there is a creator, mainly because i dont see how everything was started just by a big bang. I mean, what sparked the big bang? if you cant answer that then sciences theory on how life began is just as fickle as us religious types.

I beilive in an afterlife because i just cant imagine not existing after i am gone, i think its impossible for consciousness to be destroyed.

So you scientifics can ask, "well who created god?"

and likewise we can ask, "What created the chemicals that created the big bang?"

Not bashing your religion or anything I just think if there were a higher power he would have made his presence known. Rather than tell some people about him and have them write the bible and all.

Actually,I'm christian.And the reason why I believe in God is because the universe couldn't create itself by logic.And as for who created God,I think God had no creator,he existed before the beginning of time,and our finite human minds just can't comprehend all the facts about God,like where he came from.That's what I believe.

Mainly because it only seems logical that a higher being would be able to create all the complex objects and materials in our universe. More logical than all of that randomly happening, at least.

Why not?

I mean, what if:

Your whole life you've been an atheist, and trash talking Christians and other religions. Then you die, 30 seconds later you find yourself in heaven, face to face with God. You realize that you were wrong, God's all like "Wtf, told u i'm real." Bam you're in hell.

Plus religion (maybe not all) preaches morals, like not stealing and not murdering.

There is no afterlife. all religion is for is a comfort cause most people are scared of death. They think preaching this made up garbage with somehow make people feel better about it. When you die, you die. Your buried and your life seises to exist and you rot in the ground end of story.
