Yes, it is. I don't know why people would believe things that just don't have any evidence of existence. Do YOU believe in the tooth fairy? How about Santa Claus? Will you be sitting in front of a decorated Christmas Tree on Christmas morning opening gifts with your family? |

wrote in message oups.com... I wonder how many people in the world believe in Christianity's god? Most of all of the Christians, the Moslems and also the Jews. It's the same God for all of them. Just different prophets. Jim C. |

Some 94% think God exists. Only 5% feel God "does not exist" -- and even most of them "are not sure" of that. Exactly 1% are certain there is no God. But how strongly do the believers believe? Nearly 8 in 10, in fact, say they are "convinced" God exists, although Gallup does not ask them why that is. Conservatives are more likely to be convinced than liberals (87% vs. 61%), women a little more likely than men (82% vs. 73%), and residents of the South more than those in the East (88% vs. 70%). Surprisingly, some 61% of those who seldom or never attend church are nevertheless convinced that God exists. Show me one bit of pure scientific proof that god exists, and I'll believe it. I'm not good at believing in things not verifiable, especially when it's purpose is profit. Santa Clause? Tooth Fairy? I think most of us are just as happy with your current religious beliefs. -- And you dare call yourself a Christian. What a hypocrite. In what way am I being hypocritical? I am happy you don't call yourself a Christian. Is that hypocritical? -- John Herring Hope your Christmas is Spectacular! ....and your New Year even Better! |

believe it. I'm not good at believing in things not verifiable, especially when it's purpose is profit. Santa Clause? Tooth Fairy? Would you be able to prove to an ant or some insect how DNA sequencing works? Same for us. We are not equipped to comprehend how God could exist, we just need to believe it. Hence the premise of belief. Dan |
