“I am not sure if God exists or not. These things cannot be proven and will always be a matter of faith, whether or not I believe in a higher power. I used to. But, I lost my faith in a god, because to me, it did not make sense in light of the fact […]

“God, in my opinion, is a creation of man. I don’t see why religions think that they are correct and the ancient Greek religions are absurd. They’re all the same to me. Plus, we all know the world has been around for more than 6,000 years. How many times must The Holy Bible be wrong […]

“I know G-d exists because there is no way to prove how perfect science works without Him. I believe in Heaven, I believe there is a lesser form of heaven that some would call Hell. I do believe in the soul being reincarnated, but that the person is completely different from the one the soul […]

“I grew up in a Christian household, so pretty much from day 1 I understood the basics of what it meant to be a Christian. I remember “asking Jesus into my heart” every day when I was 4 years old, in case it “didn’t work” the time before. But it was not until the summer […]

Reading the bible and learning what Jesus was about changed my view of […]

“I consider God a possibility; I don’t believe in a God, and I don’t think there is any higher will behind my existence. I have no reason to believe that the Universe was created or wasn’t created. Scientific and historical information has made it clear to me that there is no “higher power” affecting the […]

“A ‘creative force’ must certainly exist, and I base that on the fact that I am conscious of my physical surroundings. I have prophetic dreams that make my life interesting. And why wouldn’t ‘God’ make this playground for us to enjoy/suffer through? My current beliefs are based upon a lifetime of observing organized religion. […]

“My beliefs are a compilation of a piece of most religions, or, as I like to say, understandings. My purpose is to be love and give love. My spiritual life became so real and wonderful after a serious car accident I was in and I had an amazing heavenly experience (otherwise known as […]

“I am sure God exists because He has proven himself to me. Through minor, extremely ironic miracles, and answered prayers, I have come to believe Him. In reading His word in the Bible, I have seen that not a single one of His promises has failed me. I wasn’t a believer until […]

There are too many things that cannot be explained by scientific reasoning. I can see the effects of something even if I cannot prove its existence (I cannot see the wind, but I can feel it and see how it moves things around me).
I had a very bad childhood and it came to head when […]
