I don't mean the question in some kind of vague afterlife/agnostic way, the question is do you believe in a God? Whether he has a beard, whether he's a he or a she - or none: but some kind of sovereign of all mankind.
Vote in the poll and say whether you do, and if you do - from what religious/other standpoint?
no i don't. never have done either.
i don't believe in a god no, or any sort of afterlife or anything else
Nope, life is life to put it simply
I certainly do not
I believe in God.
I do not
nahhhhh i dont
i think closest thing to God is evolution & 'mother nature'
I don't think there's a god
I don't believe in God, and never have done!
I believe in something. That something is not religion. That something is not God. But that something is simply something. I don't know what it is, but I believe it. I don't not believe him nor do I not believe him. And, trust me, that does not put me in the middle being unsure.
This probably makes no sense, but oh well. I do not have the words to describe what I mean, or such an answer to vote in the poll.
To perhaps put it simpler: My answer is not yes nor is it no and it's nowhere between the two. Perhaps I don't even quite understand what I mean myself.
i don't
no.
Nope!
GlaDOS is the only God.

no
religion is ********
yesss
The poll is very limiting. I don't believe in an all-seeing Christian god no, but some people would class my beliefs as believing in a 'god'. I've answered no, though as it's not a traditional God figure I believe in.
I believe in a God. Or even a group.
It's strange because I know there isn't one but I still believe in him... like legitimately.
I believe in the existence of a supreme being or group of beings, whether it/they are still alive and active today I don't know nor do I know just how powerful they might be/have been
ps no need for the capital G in god when describing any kind of deity, only if it's specific to a monotheistic religion as then it's their appellation
Yes I have quite a strong belief in God.
no i don't
I believe, and have faith in God.
I'm catholic and I believe in God.
fence sitting till judgement day
no i dont
ps god got a small 1 in tht pic
No.
I did, not anymore
Believe that man created god to keep people in line, it stops people from doing what they want by giving them something to fear.
No I don't, but I respect people that do and worship or believe in any other religion. :)
I do not believe in any higher being other than The Doctor, Whovianism is my religion tbh.
I'm not sure. I didn't vote on the poll because I can't definitively prove that there isn't a God. So I hold some hope there.. I guess you could call me Agnostic.
I don't believe in any kind of god or 'higher power'. I don't think it goes beyond us, basically.
I just have no reason to. It just seems like something everyone was conditioned to believe in a very long time ago, and people still hang on to it today because that's how they were raised. Like if our parents didn't ever tell us Santa doesn't exist we would all still believe it now and 100 years from today people would be discussing and studying his existence like we are right now for god.
I don't judge believers though. I just struggle to see a reason why anyone would still believe. Most people in this thread have said they don't believe but I'd be interested in seeing a more detailed post from someone that does about why they do :)

do u mean go-dist or god
I don't, my family and friends aren't religious and I don't consider myself to be. Though, I do find myself bargaining with 'him' in my head so that bad things don't happen.. Sounds ridiculous but I guess that if there is some sort of higher power, I don't want to suffer. :s
Oh wow so many atheists on here.
I believe in god, I actually say a prayer every night and it makes me feel so much better.
I think this sort of topic reflects how you were raised too. Like I went to a catholic school so I experienced a lot of things to do with this. Although, people from a non religious family are not necessarily going to want to believe or go to church etc.
I do find it quite shocking how many people still believe in a God today. I don't mean to offend anybody by saying this; I usually keep my opinions to myself on such matters. However I would put it to anybody who does believe in a God that the concept of a higher being originally arose because so many people required and do require still answers to the existential questions that life proposes. Suppose now that such a God does indeed exist; why would such a being not also question it's own existence in the same way people do since being God, he clearly would be intelligent enough to do so? Surely God would be faced with the same questions that the very people who believe in him are? What I'm implying here by my argument is that this supposed God might require another God still, higher up in the universal hierarchy than himself, in order to answer said questions. And this argument continues still, leading to a potentially infinite number of Gods each more 'divine' than the last which we can't have; we need to stop somewhere along the line in order for all of these Gods to exist. There needs to be a first God in order for all of the other Gods to exist, including our God so that we may exist. Now this first God is still intelligent enough to question his existence like all of the other Gods, but as much as he may require a God of his own to answer his questions, such a God cannot exist for then the first God would not be the first! This implies that the first God cannot be intelligent enough to question his own existence, but then by the definition of God, he ought to be?
Also since this first God is more divine than all of the other Gods which follow, none of them can be intelligent enough to question their existence; but again by the definition of a God they ought to be too! So can any God exist?
Wow I'm so confused about the whole thing. I think I really don't care to be honest. If there's a God, whoever they are have made it very clear that they want absolutely nothing to do with us humans, or that's how I see it. They're not the all-loving, all-forgiving a lot of religions seem to make them out to be.
nope
