Does God Exist?
God. ... Generally people may have thought like this about the word God; someone who is greater than anything or maybe someone who created us and this world. God exists whether people believe he is really there or not, because he is known by them. ...
Sometimes God is to be said, "non-existent. ... Anything can exist, it is in the mind of the beholder what does and doesnÕt exist. ... Ive heard those who donÕt believe in God say things like, "God is an opiate for the masses, God is something made up by people," and so on. ... I think religion is what the deceiver is and what keeps people away from the real God. ... Religions morals and beliefs seem to be what gets people wrapped up in religion, making them think they are the angels on earth, when really their understanding of God is exactly the same as someone who knows of God and knows heÕs there, but what does he do for me. I donÕt think that God a creature that created our beautiful world, you know the one on a clear day when it pushes the smog out, could of actually meant for us to run around screaming his name and conforming to some beliefs that probably arenÕt even his own. ... "
He says "Éyou do exist, O Lord, My God, that you cannot be conceived not to existÉFor if a mind could conceive of a being better than YouÉ that is most absurd. ... To conceive something who is greater than God, who created us, just makes my mind question my own existence. I can imagine oh maybe thereÕs something greater, but it cannot be conceived as even the creator of God to me. ...
I do not think the question of does God exist as big of a problem as understanding who god is.
