"He loves us and wants us to love Him, that's why he lets us choose to do good (obey Him) or to do evil and wrong! If he didn't give us a choice, what kind of love would that be? That would be like him making a bunch of robots with no choice but to do what He wants! He doesn't want that; He wants us to choose to love and obey Him! That's why there is evil and bad in the world. People have chosen NOT to love and obey God!"

" ...Of course God may exist, another question is are we really obliged to worship and obey him? if we are supposed to live by his plan, why were we given free will? my understanding of free will is that it allows us to choose, in which case we can choose to believe in God or not, will God really punish us for not believing in him especially when it was supposedly him that gave us the choice in the first place? Another aspect is the way we have used God in the past to harm each other, why do people want to believe in God when more people have died in his name than for any other reason? I personally dont want anything to do with the 'idea' of God, especially when it drives people to commit horrific acts and alleviate their guilt by using the god excuse."

Which God then, should we believe in? Which Religion do we follow? Does it matter? These are all questions that come to my mind when people say there is a God. So, if I should believe, tell me, what should I believe in? There are thousands of Gods.

If God and Jesus aren't real, they should be. What more do we have? We need something to follow, something to believe in. We need God.
