If you believe there is a lot of evidence for God I can't argue that general statement, only specifics. We seem to somewhat be spiraling away from the original issues and arguing logic without regard to the original reason it was brought up.

I have no problem with people believing in a God per se and I have no motive for believing there to be no God or not. I don't feel I would live my life any differently either way. The existence of a God doesn't make this universe any less or more amazing or beautiful. My mind is open should something occur to prove the existence of God but until I find that evidence, I can't just believe He/She/It exists.


If you don't mind, I'm curious as to your answers on these questions. If they don't apply to your concept of God, just say so.

1. What motivates an all powerful being to do anything?
2. Why would you choose to believe in an all powerful benevolent god as apposed to an unfathomably powerful alien who has merely created the universe as an experiment?
3. Do people have free will? If so, why would God give us free only to punish us for making choices He doesn't approve of?
