Think about it. Science can measure the afterglow of the Big Bang. We can determine details about subatomic particles. Yet with all our scientific methods we can find no evidence that God exists. Something as huge as God should be easily detectable. After all, he created everything and is answering prayers and doing miracles which should be something science could easily find.
So that means either he doesn’t exist – or he’s using his super powers to cover his tracks to hide from science so that science can’t detect him. And if he is all powerful he could do that. But, what does that mean if God is hiding? It means that God doesn’t want to be found. It means that God doesn’t want you to believe in God.
So what do we call someone who doesn’t want people to believe in God? We call them Atheists. Therefore – if God exists – God is an Atheist.
What do you think?
Logic. Use the parts you like and to hell with the rest.
The only condition for this presumed construct, God, to be an Athiest is if you start with an exclusionary premis.
Something like “An Athiest is a self-aware conscious entity that does not believe in a higher level entity who has created and rules all things in the Cosmos.” Operative word “higher”.
If this Mr. God were one who believed in himself—as many of us do—then he cannot be said to be an Athiest.
But all of this is complete feldercarb. If God exists, she is beyond argument.
God is of the Universe, just as you are of your body.
If there were no God, there would be no one to look for him and no place to look. Nothing, nil, a void, zip.
Tell me, why scientists can’t return life to a once-living animal? It seems that would be “easier” than creating life from chemicals in a test tube. (I am aware of invitro fertilization, but scientists can’t use synthetic sperm or eggs.) Life is a gift of God that scientists can’t explain. They explain the components necessary to sustain life, but how does life get there in the first place?
If science can’t define light (wave or particle?) and can’t explain life, why should we think it could “detect” God?
god is nothing more than dog spelled backwards!
@4 “Your reward awaits”. your reward awaits if it is jealousy, misery, torture, murder, rape, incest, bigotry, slavery, war, child abuse, racism, sadism, etc. obviously, either the author of #4 has never read “his word”, or has cherry picked through it, or does not understand it. this “word” you refer to is ancient, ignorant superstition and myth by a bunch of opium smoking morons who didn’t even know where the sun went at night. to whom a simple wheel would have seemed unfathomable technology. grow up
I think science isn’t as smart as it thinks it is.
Brilliant! Take that bunch of ignorants!
#4. The key word in what you said is “AWAITS”.
Prove to me there is a reward, and maybe I will “await”.

This article is supposedly about the difference between how dogs and wolves think. It really is about why people believe in gods.
I believe religion exists because it is profitable. If religion didn’t exist, someone would invent religion because it’s obviously a great money making scheme. If you don’t believe that, look a Scientology, which was a joke religion brewed by L Ron Hubbard. Science Fiction author Jerry Pournelle was there when Hubbard got the idea.
To those who have said “Read the Bible/Koran/whatever:” I’ve read the bible at least, and came to the conclusion it was written by people, not some deity.
Let’s just hope that this comments are not representative of the US population. How could a nation, who think themselves as the “most powerful” in the world (sure…), be so ignorant about Science. Pathetic.
Now I definitely believe in God, because if he’s proven to be an atheist, he is there.

Jonny, take a human anatomy course. Study a cadaver very thoroughly. When you’re done, you’ll know it was not designed. It’s a mass of mistakes, maladaptations, and crazy processes.

Of course! Homo Sapiens is so incredibly intelligent that he KNOWS what can’t exsist in such a tiny, limited, universe as the one he perceives. I’ve given up on trying to explain to these modest intellectuals the god I’ve come to know in my mind, same god that’s been in my heart all the time. Even the truths that you may hold most dear may be nothing more than the result of the distortion you perceive from your tiny perspective. Myself I’ve had some luck, of a sort, as to finding some of the answers to my questions. I know there’s a god, and no I don’t have the time or the inclination to share all the conclusions that built up to that knowledge. I know that the universe is perfect and it’s purpose is perfection(absolute expression of potential). I also know the egg came before the chicken, the symbolic manifests itself as material or physical – not the other way around. There’s a lot more but why bother, negation will always be easier than understanding and I’m not one to swim upstream.
“Hasty Generalization” renders your conclusion unsound…science has barely begun investigating reality…
Quantum physics, multiverse, bane, ten dimensions and more…
However…God is not “big,” He is the place where all things exist…
Our matrix, including all mutiverse, parallel universe, banes etc, if they exist, all exist in Him.
You cannot touch His substance any more than a thought or idea you think, touches the organ of your brain.
So God is not hiding…His power and will is what prevents the atomic structure of your being from flying apart and dissolving…
So I find evidence God is, in the fact the fabric of our matrix, is coherent…has form and shape. Without God, it would vanish away.
And there is evidence we are in a matrix…super hot and ultra cold matter behaves similarly…as would be expected in a matrix.

Question proceeds from the wrong premise: that God created the Universe, whereas the fact is that Man created God in his own image, so he could “Lord” it over his “Lesser” men !!! So they might as well stop looking for “God” !!!
Anyway, I worship the Flying Spaghetti Monster !!!

It’s a good thing God actually exist otherwise atheists would spend a lifetime fighting against something that doesn’t exist.
