Do you believe in God? If so/if no, WHY?

[erwin]

if I believe in God? ... hmmm... hmmm... not that sure....

Wow, it takes guts to admit something that you didn't believe the first time. I admire people like that. You know, being an atheist is something worthwhile too but there will be times (such as yours) that God will call you - you may not hear it but when you notice it, that's His call. No offense to all Atheists because I respect your views and your life. We shouldn't be fighting who is right or wrong, what matters now is how we live our lives to the fullest.

So far, this is the most calm and refreshingly said post I've read in this thread. I appreciate the way you presented it.
About God's existence? Hmmm, may I say....in the meantime, maybe I'm confused. But I'm open to the possibility of experiencing such a great kind of love from your God. I'm open to the possibility of living a lifestyle of worship which my sister is living in right now.

Naa lang koy i share about my sis. She is a follower of Christ. She loves Him so much. But she loves me too. Although suwail kaayo ko. I would still listen to her preachings. I would even listen to her talk about heaven and earth. That is because she speaks with love. I guess, love is the key for everything. For Christians, explain your beliefs to Atheists in a loving way. And for Atheists, express your opinions with love.... for only love begets respect. Thanks!

1. The argument of the unmoved mover (ex motu).
* Some things are moved.
* Everything that is moved is moved by a mover.
* An infinite regress of movers is impossible.
* Therefore, there is an unmoved mover from whom all motion proceeds.
* This mover is what we call God.
2. The argument of the first cause (ex causa).
* Some things are caused.
* Everything that is caused is caused by something else.
* An infinite regress of causation is impossible.
* Therefore, there must be an uncaused cause of all caused things.
* This causer is what we call God.
3. The argument of contingency (ex contingentia).
* Many things in the universe may either exist or not exist. Such things are called contingent beings.
* It is impossible for everything in the universe to be contingent, as something can't come of nothing, and if traced back eventually there must have been one thing from which all others have occurred.
* Therefore, there must be a necessary being whose existence is not contingent on any other being(s).
* This being is what we call God.
4. The argument of degree (ex gradu).
* Various perfections may be found in varying degrees throughout the universe.
* These degrees of perfections assume the existence of the perfections themselves.
* The pinnacle of perfection, from which lesser degrees of perfection derive, is what we call God.
5. The argument of "design" (ex fine).
* All natural bodies in the world act for ends.
* These objects are in themselves unintelligent.
* To act for ends is characteristic of intelligence.
* Therefore, there exists an intelligent being which guides all natural bodies to their ends.
* This being we call God.
