���� "No" has a large lead against "Yes."
I still believe in cat.
Aren't they gods ?
Several ancient religions believed that cats are exalted souls, companions or guides for humans, that they are all-knowing but are mute so they cannot influence decisions made by humans.
The creation of an all-knowing, all-wise, omnipotent, perfectly just creator-god is the inevitable outcome of every theological dick-size war.I have a question.... why does the god that a person believes in have to be the creator of the universe?
The bible is almost entirely made up of bullshit and/or stories that have already been proven wrong or would have taken a miracle to happen which nothing of the sort has ever happened since and you would have to be a nut to believe it happened in the first place. And then people point to the fact that (as of now) we don't know how the universe came to be as evidence of their god.
Isn't it possible that the universe DID have a creator, but is absolutely nothing like the creator that was invented by man? Looking at the grand scope of the universe which is billions of light years across, you think all of this is here for us? That some creator of the universe gives a shit if you pray to him for a new bike and he is here to serve you?
People should stop using the existence of the universe as justification to believe in their god. One has nothing to do with the other, IMO.
I believe there is one higher power. Seems like a lot of people on the Internet are atheists. Or Liberal... I see that all the time. Don't know why. Yet the USA is full of Christians. What brings atheists to a computer forum? Do they believe in the CPU God?

I not very smart man than. Me EQ is -3. Me only believe inn a 1 god.
"But everyone who denies me here on earth, I will also deny before my Father in heaven."

I'm actually very good in science, but I know of the archaeological truths to the Bible. Am I saying everything in the Bible is true? No, not by a long shot. It's like playing a game of telephone.
What I do know is nothing exists from nothing and it is created by something. Whether that be a fart on enchilada night or God's creation.
You mean your are 99.99% atheist, for you don't believe in all the other gods. Why is that?Yes, I do. Christian God.
lol. What's up with your avatar? You got something against JESUS?! You must be angry at G-d. Why are you so resentful toward G-d? Don't tell me you aren't angry at G-d because you don't believe in G-d. EVERYONE believes in G-d.

"Nothing" is merely a concept, for it can't exist.
How does that differ from the jewish god?
Uh, from that link.

Looks like the largest concentration of countries with average IQs over 100 is 30% Atheist or less.
In any case, correlation != causation, all that article states is that the subject is highly controversial and unproven. For instance it's quite possible that a higher IQ motivates one to more extensively challenge the ideas posed by religion thus resulting in a larger percentage of Atheists, and that if people of lower IQs had equivalent motivations they might very well exhibit the same tendency.
In any case I've seen this argument stated as fact by atheists everywhere, and frankly all it shows is how the advantage of their supposed greater average IQ pales in comparison to the human need to justify one's beliefs.
Full disclosure: I'm philosophically Taoist and am about as nonreligious as you can get, and I find it remarkable how quickly Atheists adopt controversial arguments as facts when it make them feel justified. I suppose it's a notch better than adopting mythical fairy tales as fact and justification, but the two behaviors are remarkably similar.
Atheism at large is fast becoming the religion of the anti-religious who have been mistreated in some way by religious people. At the end of the day I don't get why the debate on either side is worth so much effort, must be compensating for something somewhere.
The ecliptic orbit (Johannes Kepler) the rotation of electrons (Niels Bohr) the rotation of these masses and there shape. All are too perfect to be the effect of some random infinite mass expanding.
All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree.

Guess who coined these quotes?
God, the creator, Deity, whoever is so far complex that are meager pea size brains compared to the massive universe can not possibly comprehend its presence.
I personally think the creator is very huge and not of a body or form. Many people who have apparently seen heaven have described God as a very bright but not blinding light.
