"The proof is in the pudding" We exist and therefore there must be a God with a capital G who created us all and the universe. I say this with the supposition the "Schrodinger's cat" hypothesis of quantum physics is correct. It postulates that any quantum particle can and does exist in any and all states until observed by an outside observer.
So for our universe to exist at all requires an observer from the outside, and that act in and of itself created our universe, so God exists. The problem is man who has divided himself into two camps those who believe that ( insert religious text here) is the literal word of god and those who refuse to believe we are anything other than an accident.
The (insert religious text here) may indeed have at one time been God writing, however it has been edited by men seeking power over other men. And so the original has been lost to us forever. But God did give the ability to reason and plenty to think about. The evidence of evolution is all around us, we even have organs within our own bodies that serve no function and will no doubt be bred out of us eventually.
Suppose that just for a moment you were the only being in existence, you probably would be pretty bored and possibly even lonely, so if you have infinite power, BANG you create an entire universe. Now all the beings you just created (Oh what the heck let's call them angels) are reflections of you. They think like you and speak like you. Its like talking to a mirror.
The answer would be to create free willed children who could grow (evolve) into an adult you could talk to. This I think is the real purpose of man. God is real and Darwin was right. I just think that no man made religion has it figured out and both sides are to darned stubborn to see the truth. Scientists refuse to see God even though their own theories point to his existence. And religious zealots refuse to believe the evidence that God dropped right into there laps.
The hard headed narrow minded thinking has gotten so bad that men kill each other over how to pay homage to God and the really sad thing is that the big three religions all actually claim the exact same God. But if you dare to worship on the wrong day or face the wrong way or eat the wrong thing, then each group thinks God through their leaders says you should shun or even kill the other group. Remember all editing of (insert religious text here) was done by men who were just seeking to control the dumb masses.
