Personally; I believe in G-d because there has to be someone responsible for all of creation and life. Science glorifies G-d's work, and prooves he actually makes sense. This will most likely not make much sense to everyone else out there....I believe in G-d because he provides comfort and is always available to listen and give encouragment. G-d is accesable to everyone....

Long.....words.....are.....CONFUSING!

Yeah, I guess that is true about G-d, but I love orders and rules, so religion is kinda my thing.....
and also that G-d is always there to listen to me, anywhere or anytime. Which is more than I can say for ANYONE ELSE....G-d is also a force which is always there and will not change, regardless of what you do. There will be backlash if you do something wrong too.

Get a clue. That is science's ATTEMPT to explain. What science can't explain is where it all came from. Something cannot come from nothing - scientific law. The whole creation v. evolution debate is pretty much a futile argument, since neither can be proven by observation then both require faith.
 
This world is much too complex to happen by accident. Look at the human brain for instance. That developed by accident, eh? Well what if you took a super computer and broke it down to just the microchips - not even completely broken down. Do you think that if you put all those parts in a closet for a million yrs that they will begin to form into said computer? I think not.

Oh yeah !! cuz if He aint there, I'll have nothing to fight against...lol.
only a miracle could have saved me after a nearly fatal accident. I lived even after everyone had given up hope. since then, I believe in Him.
why do scientists believe in God if science can explain things we attribute to God? science is yet to evolve to be able to explain God. in fact, science never can.
anyway, everyone is entitled to their viewpoint. God or no God, we have the freedom to believe either way.

Sounds like you believe in a religion, not God. Very different. Do you believe in the God of the Bible? If you're catholic, then I would say probably yes. The Bible is pretty clear on the matter.

ok if you broke down a computer and left it a closet it wouldt get put back together because a computer is abiotic (if you dont know what it means look it up). biotic organisms go through what is called evolution. if an organism is confronted with a problem if finds a way to adapt and co-exist. just like if a plant would develop a toxin to protect itself from a predator then the predator would develop an immunity to it. then the plant would develop a stronger toxin and so on and so forth.

I read a pretty good quote once it was somthing like The probability that earth could have been made to sustain life by chance is like a hurricane going through a junk yard and assembling a jet. Now think about it, evolution could have never taken place without an earth, that had the perfect conditions and just some how had life...  Even if that hurricane hit that junk yard 30 billion times its still going to need some guidance if it ever wants to build a jet.

True conversion requires faith, not proof. If you want to know, you need to study what we have and ask in faith if its true. You can't just have somebody tell you its true. because your just leaning on someone elses testimony.

We're looking at probability here, buddy. And a plant developing a toxin is not what we're arguing here. Micro-evolution (evolving w/ in it's own species) is scientifically proven and no one argues that. What's arguable is the theory that species evolve into NEW SPECIES (macro-evolution) and that this finely tuned planet and universe came into being by chance. The idea of this contradicts the very LAWS of science you put your "faith" in. Something cannont come from nothing - that's a scientific LAW. Is it logical to assume that a building just appeared one day or over millions of years slowly formed. Nope, there was a creator and designer behind it. We apply a creator/designer to everything else on this planet, yet not to the planet itself.

If we could "prove" that God existed then there would be no requisite of faith. Secondly, no one said that science is ALL theories. There are many scientific facts and laws. I believe that God gave us science to learn about this planet He made for us and true science does not contradict God.
Though there is no solid "proof" for what I believe, I do have strong evidence that accompanies my faith:
- Nothing is made w/o design, something can't come from nothing.
- Look at the complexities of the human brain. We only understand a fragment of our bodies and yet this extremely complicated being formed by accident?
- Where does this moral code that we inherantly have?
- Why do have a feeling that there's something more? Even tribes in remote areas of the world sense a higher power. Where does that sense come from? Is it natural for humans to think about this?
- Then there's the evidence in my own life that I can't even begin to type about. I know that there are things in my life that only God could've brought about. I know that what I'm doing now is contrary to my own desires - it's God's will and I've surrendered to that.
 
Since "proving" God and some scientific theories are impossible, you must look at evidence just like a court would for any trial. Upon that evidence, a jury makes a logical decision based on what's in front of them. Is it logical to say that this planet and all it's harmonies and complexities just happened w/ no design, no reason, and no master mind? I just don't see the "evidence" that would lead me to accept anything else.
