it's pretty amazing that a gift like that can be given for free.
i think of God as being a helping friend beside me all the time unless i decide that i don't want him there anymore, which won't happen. |

i guess this isn't really like the debate, just a general question..
i'm an atheist, and i don't believe in God. |

At this point in my life, I do not have an opinion on this subject at all. I was forced into a Catholic religion and I'm forced to go there every Sunday and most Wednesdays. I didn't choose it, so I guess in return I really do not have an opinion on 'God.'
I believe there is something there, I guess, but I don't know what to think of it. |

I don't go to church or anything. But I'm okay with people who do. Except when it feels like they're pressuring you to be like them.

He's always there for me.
sometimes, He seems like my only support in life. praying to Him makes me feel better about myself... it all depends on your religion.

I respect those who following a religion, but I don't believe any gods exist. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm comfortable with my beliefs.
I just find it hard to swallow religion. People have believed so many things over the centuries of human history, that I cannot be convinced that the Christian God is the God, for one thing. I have other reasons, but that fact alone makes me wonder. |

I'm a Christian, born & raised. I don't go to church, however. I'm going to start soon.
Basically, I love God with everything I am. He gives me strength. He gives me love. He gives me the abilities to do whatever I choose to do in this precious thing called life. Though, it does kind of bother me how people always believe every little thing was planned out by Him. I do believe he has things planned, yes, but not every little thing. So many people just sit and let life pass them by because they think everything has been planned for a reason - but if you don't go after what you want, if you don't take chances, what's the point of living? I don't know. I guess, basically, I have a healthy relationship with Him. I tell him everything, but I'm not to the point where everything I do is based upon what I think He'd think of me or whatever. I guess I'm just not very religious. |

Technically speaking, I'm Jewish (as in I still have to go temple, sunday school, etc), but I have agnostic beliefs.
As in I believe that the answer to the existence of God, whether he/she exists or not, is unknown. I don't think there's enough evidence to prove that God exists or doesn't exist. But honestly, when I did believe in God, I pretty much only wished for silly things during silent prayer in services.

i believe i have a good relationship with god, i ask him to help me out and when he helps me, i feel that i have to be a better person to show him that i'm thankful since i don't buy into the bible crap.
he doesn't grant my every wish so that helps me stay grounded and appreciative. |

God is my buddy. :P I tell Him quite a lot, and he helps me get through tough times (and gives me forgiveness when I mess up). He's awesome.

God is a figment of imagination. Sort of. Maybe. Eh, who knows.

I believe in God. I've gone to church since I was little, gone to church camp since i was old enough, and a couple days ago i started reading the Bible for fun. its quite interesting, actually. im learning a lot. but anyway. if there isnt a God, then how was the universe created? how did it get here in the first place?

I believe in God. Don't go to church or pray or anything like that, though. But I'm still a Christian.
I'm like the last Christian of my friends, because they're all trying to "rebel" against their parents by changing religions. But they won't admit that they're rebelling. I grew up a Christian, and I'll die a Christian. kthx |

i love God. he's amazing and words cannot simply describe. and although these people don't understand now.. they will eventually and regret that they didn't before.. omg i have so much too say but i cant just use words. but i love him. i really and truly do.
