Just wondering how many of you believe in a form of god...
I've noticed the more intelectually inclined places I goto online the less religious people there are...

Oh hey look at that. I am member #4500. Horray for rounded numbers :p

I believe in the wrongness of your poll...

Agnostics claim it is (and in some cases, will be) impossible to know conclusively whether God exists or not.

Some people believe in God, and pure chance (the idea being that God is manifested in terms of pure chance.) Some people are atheists, and believe in life without pure chance - eg. solopsists.

Oh yes... welcome to PF!

I am atheist
Religions are sects, and their members are zombies that follow the rules of their religion

First, what is a landover bapstist?
Second, I voted for the middle one, because I'm against a very organized religion, but am obviously religious to those who know me to some extent.

Seriously, you unsaved heathens can be so ignorant sometimes.

MAYBE, if you'd open your eyes and accept the one and only path to truth, you'd be able to not only go to heaven, but read and comprehend text.

Man I hate heathens.

First, I hope you're joking, I have a hard time telling with you.
Second, I didn't bother with the website because one time I found the scientology website and had to read for literally hours about the life and times of L. Ron Hubbard (or whatever his name is) to find out what they are about. In my opinion, this bio sounds made up, or he had an unbelievable life.

Way to be overly cynical! I'm sure many anal-retentive, lonely science nerds with low self esteem love trying to belittle high school students in order to make themselves feel better*thumbs up*.

Heh. But I don't want to be nice! I won't to bake cookies and then show them to God, and he'll say, "Wow, these are good cookies, Jeebus."

And then I'll say something like, "Ya know those were covered with LSD tablets."

Then God will say, "Really?" And I would shout, "Yes, it just goes to show you that you are not omniscient!"

Oh, by the way, I'm atheist.

I'm sorry folks but we have expressed before that PF no longer supports the discussion of religion.
 

What is the definition of "God"?

The definition of "God" varies among different religions and belief systems. Generally, God is seen as a divine being who is all-powerful, all-knowing, and the creator of the universe.

Is there any scientific evidence for the existence of God?

There is currently no scientific evidence that definitively proves or disproves the existence of a God or higher power. The concept of God is a matter of personal belief and faith, rather than scientific fact.

Can belief in God coexist with belief in science?

Yes, many people hold beliefs in both God and science. While science seeks to explain the natural world through empirical evidence and experimentation, belief in God is often based on faith and spirituality. These two beliefs can coexist and are not necessarily mutually exclusive.

Why do some people believe in God while others do not?

Belief in God is a personal and subjective experience. People's beliefs are shaped by a variety of factors, including upbringing, culture, personal experiences, and individual reasoning. There is no one definitive answer to why some people believe in God while others do not.

What role does religion play in belief in God?

Religion is often a major factor in belief in God. Many religious traditions have specific beliefs and practices related to the concept of God, and religious teachings and communities can influence an individual's belief in God. However, belief in God can also exist outside of organized religion.
