I don't know how else to explain this existence. If God doesn't exist, why would I? Don't say there isn't a reason, because that wouldn't be rational.
So the reason you believe in God is essentially because you see no other way existence is possible?
That seems like a silly position to take, to settle on an intentionally comforting conclusion reached by bronze age people in the middle of Palestine, because you couldn't explain it... To rely on an assumption without proof because it is an easy one to believe... not to mention it is a position completely unsupported by evidence and one that was derived from such a limited view of existence.
The people who lived in 1st century A.D were idiots; uneducated, superstitious, largely illiterate and devoid of logical thought and reason. To base a world view on the musings of a society with those credentials is stupid. These were not wise people, they were not intelligent people, they were largely not even good people but rather completely barbaric, intolerant people.
So it raises the question; why the fuck would you listen to a word that came from this period, let along take it as gospel?
