I think that God exists in the minds of those who believe in him/her/it. Vidal was of course quite correct - credulous people create their God/s in their own image, in the sense that the particular form that 'God' takes for any individual would be a product of their particular needs, experiences and fantasies.

No I don't but I used to.

Why
- The lack of any credible evidence that is consistant with a faiths revealed teachings which is not explained adequately by other belief systems.
In relation to the main middle eastern god in it's two various forms.
- I find it impossible to believe a being to be superior who has sat by and allowed his or her followers to do the harm to fellow humans that followers of Yahweh/Allah have done.
- I find it impossible to consider a being superior who allows those who claim his name to molest children year after year or to blow up innocents in his name.
- I can't consider a being superior who set up a crooked game in which his son is the only one who passes and everybody else needs to come on bended knee before him to avoid an eternity of torment.
- I can't consider a being superior who's instruction manual is so confusing that his or her people can't reach a common understanding of some fairly fundamental issues but can believe that they have the absolute truth.
- A can't consider a being superior who's followers have embraced sexual discrimination, slavery, wars of conquest throughout history amd in recent years the unceasing posting of dribble on OLO.
- I can't consider a being superior who allows the likes of Benny Hinn to continue to claim to represent him (likewise with others of his ilk).
- I can't consider a being superior when the most likely determinant for believing in his or her existance is the accident or when and where you were born but where that knowledge is supposedly vitally important.

Of course, I belive, but I know the one who's doing all to persuade everybody in NON-existence of supernatural and mystical...by means of his vids. Look at this

Yes, I believe in god.

Too much abjectly silly sh+t happens every day for it to be simply within the realms of a logical untampered-with universe.

I feel like the puppet of a higher being….a being that is as flawed as any human….which imposes stupid sh^t upon you just out of the blue, and good stuff as well, just on a whim….with no rhyme or reason.

It’s almost as though our god is some silly adolescent trying to find his place in his godly world amongst millions of other gods.

Ps. That’s your best post yet Ginxy.
