Many people need to believe that God exists, so on the evolutionary scale the fact that we created the concept has not changed. As a species we have not advanced much in that area and the need for a belief in a supreme being and the construction of religion/s around the world continue to give people of different creed, culture and language the faith in the unanswerable questions, that life has meaning and there is a purpose to our existence.

So my answer is that the idea of God exists and will continue to do so until we have sufficiently evolved to become beings who have faith in ourselves.

Many people need to believe that Evolution is true because they absolutely hate the notion of moral responsibility and consequences for ones behavior. They want to be able to kill unborn Babies with no guilty conscience from a God who will judge them someday. They want to have one night stands, walk away from their Babies they created, with no accountability for their actions.

This is why they hate God and why they are trying to separate any mention of God in our Public lives. They want no feelings of guilt and want a no fault culture.

They have no clue how life sprang up from no life yet they still preach their evolutionary religion as if it were fact. Our culture is showing us all what will happen as God is separated from society. We will justify killing our most innocent children through a privacy clause in the Constitution. That is the compassion of mankind without God.

People do not believe in God out of fear from being judged. They do so because God spoke to their hearts and they opened their lives to him. They see how their lives have been transformed from one of depression and the emptiness of the world to one of fulfillment. It opens their minds to the utter harm that irresponsibility and sin causes in our lives and helps us be better people. It has nothing to do with fear of being judged for sins.

But you only show your ignorance to the Christian faith. It's not rocket science but go ahead and keep judging Christians. The hypocrisy is mind blowing.

Most definitely,It is"THIS" supreme power that gives us the strength,overlooks us ,makes us repentant;

unless this idea is ingrained in us we wont be able to realize our true potential;besides this power can be deemed as the "hidden force" in our souls;God is nothing but this power.

Yes He should. Now yes, I'm a religious (sorta) kind of person. But I say yes purely because everyone should believe in something bigger than themselves. As silly as it sounds, sometimes and imaginary friend is "someone" you need. Now, I'm not saying God is just an imaginary friend for you extremely religious... But what I am saying is there has to be "someone" you can talk to when you're alone to kinda ease your nerves of everyone else. Because no one is perfect so you can't ALWAYS find a physical human being to turn to. So yes, gods should exist.

Without the idea of God there would be no existential reason for our being, no cause for morality, no hope for an afterlife. Believing that everything is just a coincidence has never been human nature. Thousands of years with thousands of cultures worshiping one deity or another and the world has not self destructed... Yet! Take God out of America and see what happens...or is happening!

I do believe it should exist. While people use their gods and religions to promote themselves, their ideas, or other uses for personal gain, people use many things in that fashion. Politicians using kids or military as well for just a single example. There's even people who fight against something that doesn't pertain to them when the pertained group may or may not mind. People will always use whatever they can to get what they want. A "God" taken away wouldn't solve that problem. In saying that, it also doesn't support the idea.

I do believe the main benefit of a "god" for people is that the idea really does bring them comfort in their lives. There are many people who would not have gotten through certain points in their life. Even if you do not believe in it, there are those that do, and those that do truly believe and is "fact" to them. And like anything else, there are those that take it too far. But once again, going too far goes with anything.

Humans by nature will take anything they can and use it in their own way. While good or bad, it happens. And whilst, it follows patterns of most things it's good for some which puts it in the keep category.
