I believe in God. God is an immortal, benevolent, omniscient, omnipotent being, I think it would be very hard to prove the existence of God, St. Anselm put for several proofs of the the existence of God.
Ontological argument
I think the argument stated earlier on this thread was, the universe had to be created by something. I think the atheists retort to this is that the universe could be infinite, just as the theist would claim God is infinite, if the universe is infinite then one doesn't need God to explain the existence of universe. However, it seems as though the concept of
heat death, and the fact that the universe seems to have had a beginning (big bang) suggests that the universe is not infinite. I also like the idea that I won't cease to exist after my body dies. Psychological crutch? I prefer to think of it as hopeful.
I'd like to know the atheist response to this. I believe in God, I don't think it is contrary to reason to believe this, although I think faith helps a lot, if it isn't necessary.
