Can a fast food restaurant operate itself without any people there? That's crazy for anyone to even think about.
After considering all of the above, how could we look to the universe above us through a telescope or observe the molecules in a microscope and then think that all of this came about as a result of a "big bang" or some "accident?"
We don't have to see an artist to recognize a painting, correct? So, if we see paintings without seeing artists painting them, in the same way, we can believe that God created everything without having to see Him.

ChampionDzn wroteMatter wrote Its just something to fight over and debate. If God is so great and all powerful, how about he fixes the issues in this world? If he can apparently develop a whole world, why can't he fix the issues with it. Don't tell me "he is busy" or anything like that, it is said that he created the world basically instantly, if he can do that he can make a few quick fixes also.
Think of it this way.....God created us and put us through a test (which is life) and based on our actions in life he decides whether we are worthy of going to his kingdom (Heaven).
I also believe that God doesnt intervene with all the bad things in the world because he wants us the sort them out our selves which im presuming is part of this 'Test'.
god did not create us there is no evidence to say he did however there is evidence which says he diddnt
p.s if god existed then there would be atleast a tiny bit of evidence

I agree, I'm a person that has to see evidence before I believe something, especially something the magnitude of a "God"

When it comes to religoun, I think that some people go crazy with it. I believe in an afterlife of some sort, but not a heaven or hell type thing. But I am more open to suggestions than to actually follow a single religoun

You say in your first line "just don't TELL people its true" i could come back to you now and say well don't just tell people its false, because you are not giving a very persuasive argument.
religion is and always will be around us and people will tell you about it because if its something they believe in and have a passion for then they will want people to know and feel they joy they do, its your choice weather you listen or not..
but i find most of the time i get atheists attacking me saying how God is not real, yes you do get annoying religious people who try and throw it in your face, but it works both ways, non religious people quite like to throw their opinion in your face.
and no where does it say that he created the world instantly

I never told you it was false, I am stating my opinion.
