Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

you have a different conceptualization of god then most people.I'm assumeing you do think he is:All powerful(before he created humans and gave them free will)created everything(except human actions,yet he did create humans)and is all knowing(except for what humans are going to do)If god was all powerful, couldn't he create a universe where free will didn't result in suffering? If not, then why create something knowing it will suffer and that helping it would be wrong; putting god in a delima of his own doing that he laments.Also Free will is nonsensical; its the idea that we are neither determined nor random. Its the idea that we are uncaused causes, which would mean our actions,thoughts and beliefs have no relation to the world(random). It is also used to put the blame on someone, saying that they should of "choose" differently as if their actions/thoughts ect should have a relation to the world(quasi-determined).
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

I don't believe He created everything in a Biblical sense. I tend to think He sparked the Big Bang or some other type of event, which created the Universe the way it is now. The reason I believe this is because science has shown that the laws of nature don't change and there has been evidence of various theories that support this claim- that God did not create the world like the Bible states He did.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

I see, so your more of a deist? You seem so much reasonable then most people who believe in god. THANK YOU! If he sparked the big bang and knows how the chain of causation unfolds; then my previous criticisms still hold.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

The fact that God is all powerful and created everything leaves him outside of the space-time continuum. First because time is relative and space is only a series of possibilities (as defined in quantum physics). God’s existence is not dependent on his interaction with creation. That he exists doesn’t necessarily mean that he loves us or is kind (that is an assumption)
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

If he is not to be found in the space-time continuum, Does he matter? Also, god is the more complicated answer.  Its "Some how the universe exists, how? I don't know." vrs. "God created the universe. How does god exist? I don't know and I don't know why god created the universe or if he even really did because I have no evidence, etc.".Their bad assumptions then.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

If there is no evidence leading up to a God, I do not believe. Any sort of God would not ignore suffering like there has always been. Any 'miracle' these days can be fully debunked.So I do not see a point in believing in something that's made up. -Falhalterra(12)Ok, so what is your alternative belief to how the universe came to be? Huh? Oh- wait... before you say anything, I don't believe it because it is a made up theory and cannot be proven. And please don't say the universe existed because of the Big Bang Theory, because this can be "refuted" with the same question. Where did the Big Bang come from? Who caused it? Who caused that being to cause it? Who caused the being who caused the being who caused it? etc. Theoretically, there must be at some point, an end, because otherwise supernatural hierarchy would be a paradox, and it would have been impossible for this world to exist.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

Nicely put. We sound like we are on identical paths. :) I like it like lika.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

Have you read the book miracles and mere christianity by C.S.Lewis? Its really goooooood.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

The evidence is all around you AND within you to acknowledge this truth, but you choose to ignore it, God gave us the ability to choose our path, He does not interfere with your free will. If He wanted puppets He would have created us as such, the suffering you are talking about comes at the hands of men (humans) because of greed, lust, deception, bottom line, SIN, and we are very sinful to our nature...God is sovereign, Loving, compassionate ALL knowing and JUST... God Bless you and I hope he opens up your mind to Him...
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

Question:Why did the crusades happen? Answer: god told the pope to kill muslimsSo that is the act of a tolerant and loving god? No. More like an egocentric maniac
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

here is proof of god listen to this video !!!!!!!!!!!!! and answer the questions
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

That's mythology, not proof. There's a difference.By the way, threats of hell are very cheesy and remove any shred of seriousness.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

I only watched the first 30 seconds, but this is your proof? God hasn't affected the planet since... Ever! Evolution flatly contradicts any need for a God to have created the universe.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: Yes

If God doesn't exist! Then who created you!?? How did you come in this world!? If humans are responsible for the creation of non-living things!! Then how do you believe that no one is responsible for the creation of living thing!??? I strongly oppose you!! God exists!! We can't see him but he exists..... there are many things that we can't see.... so what's your opinion that such things don't exist cause we can't see him!???
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: Yes

Theres no REAL evidence in evolutiojn which you problably believe in but let me ask you something arent you just believing in something non existent?
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: Yes

So why do you think the overwhelming majority of the scientific community recognizes evolution if it has "no REAL evidence"?
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

I love it when I get down voted without a dispute, it means that you annoyed someone, and they have nothing to say.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

All I know is that it's only me who can control my life. I'm not a puppet in the hands of a unknown power (that is if it really exists). If there was a so called supervising power then everything would be prefect in our lives which is not exactly the fact. How on earth can we beleive on things that don't have a proof of existence.Cheers to the imagination of those who craeted it, I'm sorry it probably just exists in your head and that too I guess out of fear, not acceptance.I definitely do not beleive in the existence of god!
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

THEN TELL ME WHAT YOU BELEIVE IN?! NOTHING! How can you beleive in nothing life has purpose. nothing has to be able to create nothing there cant be a nothing creating everything. You cant have legos coming together themselves. There has to be a creater behind a creation.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

Nothing cannot create everything... But nothing can be identified and named "SOMETHING".... :DWhich is surely something other than GOD..!!And the process has to be a bit RATIONAL too...!!!...As to what I believe in,, I believe in myself... and that is ENOUGH to drive my existence..!!!
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

The fundamental laws of the universe (Gravity, Electromagnetism, Strong force, and Weak force) are required for a being like God to exist. However, the fundamental laws of the universe did not exist until nanoseconds AFTER the Big Bang. Even if he did not require those laws to exist, if he CAN physically affect the universe (blizzards, tornadoes, hurricanes) than he was most certainly torn apart and killed by the Singularity that caused the Big Bang. Or the explosion. There was no way he could have survived the beginning of the Universe and still be able to physically affect the universe.Also, the purpose of life is literally just to reproduce.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

I do not believe in God so therefore I say he does not exist, there is not one shred of evidence outside of personal accounts that proves Gods existence.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

And some of those highly touted "personal accounts" weren't even encountered by real people.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

Are you referring to biblical accounts? .
Debate: Does God exist?

Yes.......................................................
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

Wasn't sure, you cant be too careful with what you type in these debates.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

ok you say there is no evidence that God is real. well where is your evidence that he isnt real????! Explain how humanity was created....explain how everything was made..math...reading......sex......it wasnt just there !!! we just didnt float ta earth someone or something created everything so give me your evidence
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

OK you say there is no evidence that God is real. well where is your evidence that he isn't real????I don't have any, that is the point, if your argument for Gods existence is "the fact that there is a god" then you need to back that up, what I asked was where is the evidence, I never stated I had any.Explain how humanity was created....explain how everything was made..math...reading......sex......it wasnt just there !!!Humans as Homosapiens are possibly one of the newest species on the planet evolved over the last six million years through successive mutations from a common ancestor that we share with Chimpanzees.Maths and reading came to be as a larger and more logic orientated brain started to evolve in archaic homosapiens. Larger brains came from the evolution of bipedal locomotion which took over from quadrupedal locomotion, this happened as the plush forested area of Africa receded leaving some species to pick out a living from a more flat (no more trees) and arid landscape. The necessity to crouch to pick tubers and other ground plants to eat coupled with the fact that they had to travel longer distances and bipedal locomotion freed up the hands to carry and waisted less energy. The freedom of the hands allowed the species to put these to increasingly difficult tasks until it came to the point about 30,000 years ago where cave drawings started which over time became glyphs and a protowriting system that became something like hieroglyphics of ancient Egypt these could be the origins of reading. Four thousand years ago and maths comes into being, I'm not too sure on this but I think it was early Babylonian tablets that contained the first known mathematical writings.As for sex well that is as old as life its self, nearly as it consisted of asexual reproduction. Sexual reproduction is a huge topic which I would find hard to compress so read the link.http://www.evolutionary-philosophy.net/sex.html There is a book called The Ancestors Tale by Richard Dawkins I would advise any one to read it.If some of the dates and stuff are a bit off it is because I am pulling this stuff off the top of my head.we just didn't float ta earth someone or something created everything so give me your evidenceWhy did someone or something have to have created anything. God is a non answer it explains nothing and only provides a much bigger question, where did God come from, we know where a lot things come from as there is tons of evidence to look to, there is no evidence for Gods existence, God for all intents and purposes is a mythical character trying to find evidence of his existence is like trying to find evidence of the existence of Fairies.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

Well if you want to believe you came from MONKEY, so be it...I on the other hand am a child of GOD and thus I shall return to Him in the end of my life... Where will you be going (TO MONKEY HEAVEN)??????
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

I never stated that I came from a monkey. I stated that humans share a COMMON ANCESTOR with chimpanzees. If you are going to make statements about evolution then I would advise learning about it. I am far more open to the suggestion that all living creatures-through successive and slight variation- over a vast amount of time evolved from simple beginnings, then a omnipotent contradiction in six days brought about every living thing, Why? As there is a mountain of evidence to support it. On the other hand; you are willing to believe purely on the word of others. And no I don't think I shall be going to Monkey Heaven, I will be broken down by worms and saprophytic Bacteria until all the elements and compounds that make me go back into the Earths delicate balance. I am OK with this and thus can live my life free of the mind controlling Dogma that you will dedicate the rest of your life to: never being able to live out your desires.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

you want us to disprove something that doesn't have any proof of its own, simplethere is no proof, therefore it can not be.math is a human invention, so is reading, sex is the natural instinct of animals, and if you had even a basic understanding of evolution then you would know we didn't just "float to earth" but we evolved over millions of years from tiny organisms.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

Where did those tiny organisms come from? I'll keep asking questions like atheists until you admit that both evolution AND creation are based on faith, not evidence.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

it is believed that these organisms came from a meteor that hit earth, and unlike creation, there's plenty of evidence for evolution. we have already observed micro-evolution, natural selection and fossil records. Evolution has been a developing field of research for the past 200 years, and is supported by science, and creationists has shown nothing to prove their beliefs.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

Once again, I ask you, where did this so-called "meteor" come from?
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

Where did God come from? .
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

It is impossible on every level to prove something DOES NOT exist. If someone makes a preposterous claim (An invisible being created all life) than it is the supporter's duty to prove their claim. Scientific law states that the only reason to believe in something is evidence, and since there is no conclusive evidence to prove God exists, I don't believe he does.To address your concerns on how humanity was created, there is a very precise study that encompasses the history of life on Earth. Billions of years ago, long before dinosaurs existed, there was no life on Earth. None. But if the conditions are right, (and this has been tested and proven in a laboratory) basic elements can come together with electricity and form Amino Acids. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, which are, in turn, the building blocks of single-celled life. Single celled organisms clump together in cultures, which think and move like one creature. Symbiotic relationships like those then evolved to be larger, to more easily take out the competition. One of the first animals on Earth was a fish, because bacteria evolved quickly in the ocean. Fish species split, grew, and evolved. Humans and all mammals are descendants of the first fish. Insects are the descendants of the arthropods that evolved to feed on those fish. About sex, God did not create it. Any animal that cannot reproduce dies out in the first generation. It is ignorant and primitive to say an intangible being made it all pop into existence.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

That is because you are blind to the facts around you, you must seek Him in the Spiritual way and not from a human stand point. Humans are ignorant to this fact because they do not know that we are Spirit living in this decaying fleshly form. When you die and you will ONE DAY you will find out... I just hope it is not to late for you... THERE YOU GO -- NOW YOU CANNOT BOAST THAT YOU WAS NOT DISPUTED...
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: Maybe

The existence of a divine being is unknown. You cannot prove it nor can you disprove it, we are simply not that advanced as a species yet.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

If a divine being can be defined, you can examine its definition for consistency. If its inconsistent/contradictory you can discount it. If it can not be defined then it can not be known and is thus useless. If it has a consistent definition and that definition states it as supernatural, then it is by definition non-empirical and can not be verified by observation.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

To be honest, I don't think it has anything to do with scientific advancement. I don't think living humans can ever truly prove God's existence.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

"1. Week are Protected - Ex. Mammals overtook Dinosaurs"Natural selection is when individuals that are best suited for the environment are able to reproduce and pass on their genes, which were fit for the environment. In the case of dinosaurs and mammals, a cataclysmic asteroid hit Earth and a lot of dust blocked the atmosphere from allowing too much sun to reach plants. Many plants died because they lacked sunlight. Then, the herbivorous dinosaurs couldn't maintain a large diet because of lack of ample food. Then, the carnivorous dinosaurs couldn't maintain their diets because there wasn't enough meat to eat. Meanwhile, mammals at the time were small and rodent-like, which meant they only needed small diets."2. Wicked are destroyed - Ex. Evil civilizations always got destroyed"This is a correlation, but not causation. The wicked don't get destroyed because they are wicked. They get destroyed because their governments are not well-equipped to survive. For example, the Soviet Union collapsed in large part because they did not have food. They didn't have food because Lysenko was completely backwards in his way of thinking when it came to evolution and its role on agriculture. They didn't collapse just because they were our enemies."3. Planned Execution - Wonderful success rate (absolute no wast)"I'm honestly not really sure what you mean here, so could you please elaborate? :)"4. Beauty beyond description - Needs great skill set to achieve it!"We find beauty in nature through order (sometimes not so, but usually yes). Well scientists have been able to simulate an early Earth atmosphere and have been able to assemble amino acids, the building blocks of life, without manipulation of molecules. This means that things like amino acids assemble that way on their own and the universe has a lot of order to it. Why? Maybe it's God who's behind it, but it doesn't matter because I'm merely pointing out that beauty is not created by God directly.Also, as a side note, if He is an intelligent designer, then we should all have perfect bodies without mistakes because an intelligent design from a perfect deity should not have flaws. However, if you look at the human body, we have blind spots in our eyes and we have a choking hazard since our trachea and esophagus intersect. These two little flaws could have easily been fixed by an all-powerful God. And that's why He did not design us.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

1. Week are Protected - Ex. Mammals overtook DinosaursDodo birds were week, what happened to them again?2. Wicked are destroyed - Ex. Evil civilizations always got destroyedI'm pretty sure there are plenty of warlords in charge in Africa3. Planned Execution - Wonderful success rate (absolute no wast)Some would argue planned execution was itself evil, for example that dude Christians made up, Jesus.4. Beauty beyond description - Needs great skill set to achieve it!Well first, anyone can describe anything, it just takes a bit of imagination. And second, there is no correlation between god and beauty by any stretch. What one does or does not consider beautiful may or may not exist with or without any magical super daddy.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

If that's true, then the origins of the idea of God are flawed. If modern research cannot prove an entity like God, how do you (or how did medieval philosophers) know that he exists? Scientific law states that the only reason for believing in something is conclusive proof. Not believing in god won't affect us if he is entirely independent from this universe. Believing in god just makes you look primitive.
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

The existence of a divine being is unknown. You cannot prove it nor can you disprove it, we are simply not that advanced as a species yet.That's a cop-out answer. There are plenty of claims we hear about in life every day that we will never be able to disprove or prove, but we dismiss them for lack of evidence. Why is "god" immune to this and not "aliens are in my backyard" or "global warming is a conspiracy between wealthy reptilian men and ancient aliens who built the pyramids against us."
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: No

Ok here it is,The only reason people believe god exists is because they are afraid to die.What do i mean by that?Humans seem to have been gifted with an intelligence, and because of that we're smart enough to realize "oh shit we're going to die someday" But also, as a result of the materialistic society we live in today, people become attached to their lives, to their sense of self. With their jobs, family, cars, hobbies etc., the begin to want to live forever, and don't want to admit to themselves that "I ,name, am mortal and will die, and once i die, i will not exist as name anymore, there will be no I, name, because the whole idea of I, name is contained within my mortal brain. With that in mind, and the desperate desire to deny the power and existence of death as a part of life, they create an after life with "God" where they can live forever by "his" side as name, they never have to die.People decide to lie to themselves about their own mortality, insisting that God exists and will save them from death and give them "life everlasting" THIS STUFF IS IN CHURCH TEACHINGS AND LITURGIESSince we now see that the very IDEA of god has been constructed by humanity because of its genuine FEAR of Death, we know God to be merely a construct and therefore non-existent.Now that is not to say the "God" has "his" affect on people. Whether or not he exists in this universe, he most definitely exists in the minds of those who believe, and their actions are definitely influenced by his "presence" Thus we arrive at the second reason for God's existence, Social order.We all know that human beings are VERY prone to immediate gratification and are present-minded fools. Some very-intelligent person realized a long time ago that people would do WHATEVER THE HELL THEY WANTED, and destroy everyone in the process. Now there is nothing intrinsically "wrong" with that, its human nature, but for society as a whole to flourish its not a good idea.So our smart guy thought "Hey, I'll convince everyone that there's some magical, omnipotent, omniscient being that will throw them to a terrible place called "Hell" once they die, if they've been "bad". Or, if they've been "good" all their life, they can go to a place called heaven where they get to live forever! and enjoy sweet virgins!Thus giving humans an incentive to be good! My God, it seems that we're being treated like children, candy dangling in our face, available to us only if we've been good! haha

''The only reason people believe god exists is because they are afraid to die.''I definitely agree to this point!It's just a petty assurance, to keep us happy!
Debate: Does God exist?
Side: yes

THIS IS AN UNFAIR GENERALIZATION! I believe God exists and it is not because I am afraid to die! I believe it because it is true. www.thetruthproject.org
