Why would anyone really think God exists? ... or even believe in Religion?

I do not believe in God.  I believe in the scientific theory of how the world started...why?...because it makes sense to me.  Alot of people's arguments about God are "someone/something must have created to world and universe."  Well...says who?  How do people know God created the universe?  How do people know he didn't?

The answer is that noone knows.  No athiest, christian, jew, muslim, or scientist knows exactly how the universe was created.  Religous people say God...scientists say the Big Bang or some other theory.  But honestly people, and hear me when I say this:  does it really matter?  Honestly...its not like "I wondered how the universe started" is a thought on our minds at all times.  I believe the universe came to be from the big bang, but other than that, I really don't care.

Listen people...at the end of the day, it doesn't matter how the world or universe was created, or why it was created.  The world is here...and so is the universe.  I say stop pondering/wondering/questioning how everything came to be...and just be glad everything is where its at now.  I know I am a human being that will die someday, so these thoughts/questions really don't bother me.  I live my life the way I do, and others live theirs the way that they do.  What happens to me when I die doesn't keep me up at night either.  I don't know what will happen...just as noone knows what will happen.

Once again, I say stop concerning yourselves with how everything began, and just concern yourselves with whats going on now.

religion does not promise a better life.  It says if you live a good life an follow your goin to heaven.  But it dont say that if you follow the religion your life will be better on earth.

It would make things easier, but that's what human beings do best, investigate because we're curious.
