How many people here believe in God?
If you do, can you also explain what kind of entity you see God as.
Personally I am an atheist, but I like to hear religous people's views.

But that is thinking in purely human terms. The universe *is*. Its as simple as that. Our life is a mixture of chemical reactions and coincidence. A theory is that life arrived on this planet via a comet. Is God involved in that? If you take it to extremes then the garden of Eden comes into question, and evolution and the like.
I personally do not believe in "God", but do believe there is a force shaping the universe, but it is in NO terms that we can describe adequately.

You said it yourself, a belief is a belief.
It makes more sense to me that an omnipitent God carefully crafted the world rather than it just all happening by accident. The world is too complex to be an accident.
If you leave the ingredients for a cake lined up in your kitchen with the gas on for an hour then walk back in with a lit match i doubt you will end up with a perfect cake.

You said it yourself, a belief is a belief.
It makes more sense to me that an omnipitent God carefully crafted the world rather than it just all happening by accident. The world is too complex to be an accident.
If you leave the ingredients for a cake lined up in your kitchen with the gas on for an hour then walk back in with a lit match i doubt you will end up with a perfect cake.

Why not? Belief is belief. No-one can physically prove that such a being exists.

But why *shouldn't* it be that way? Why should a supposedly all powerful being have snapped it's fingers (or whatever appendage it has) and said "This is the way it will be!"?

But why *shouldn't* it be that way? Why should a supposedly all powerful being have snapped it's fingers (or whatever appendage it has) and said "This is the way it will be!"?

I dont think that you can just write off god's birth by saying he is a universal constant.

I dont think that you can just write off god's birth by saying he is a universal constant.
people are always discovering new things about science. When the electron was discovered it completely changed many majour scientific theories and produced many new ones. The discovery of DNA is another example. We will probably never fully understand everything about the world because it is so complex.
Its these complexities that make me think it is near imposible for it to have all came from nothing. i.e believing in God
