Re: [Serious]Why are you not a believer of the existence of God
I think god exists but not in the bearded, fear striking sort of way. We as humans are arrogant. We believe that this "creator" has some sort of vested interest in us. Why would he? Intelligent design is another farce that we have made. If there is a divine being it would operate on a vastly larger or smaller scale than we could ever comprehend. If there is a god my feeling is he designed things like chance and random probability not organs and rocks.
Also I echo the sentiments of Shaggy, why would this all powerful entity punish or reward us based on morals that are only contextually human? For instance, think of animals culling the weak for the sake of the herd. If this where to happen in a human society it would be considered morally inconceivable yet we understand that it beneficial in terms of species survival.
