The_Dunadan, I'm leaving this topic up, but please refrain from talking as if God is there and everybody should believe in Him. I'm referring to stuff like "why believe in him....if you don't, when you physically die, you will be seperated from god for eternity."

Say that's what you believe or something. Don't put it out there as if it's a fact. Because as far as people who don't believe in God are concerned, it's not a fact. You are just going to have to get used to the fact that some people out there don't believe in God or the afterlife. And telling them that they should believe in God so that they aren't separated from Him for eternity isn't going to help things. BigJustinW seems perfectly fine with it, so why can't you be?

Anyway, I don't believe in God because I only believe in what can be proven through the scientific method. And there simply isn't any way to do an experiment to prove or disprove the existence of God. Some people take that to mean they should have faith and believe in Him since His existence hasn't been disproven. I and many others don't believe in God because His existence hasn't been proven.
