Christians, what is your VERY BEST arguments for the existence of God?

[Lilith_86]

Aw did Pippy get his feelings hurt? We mock everything here, even each other, why do you think you are special? Besides CP already agreed with my addendum to his memo. I do have one serious question though.

Do you really believe that you choose to see god? If so, can you choose to NOT see god?

I vividly remember seeing god everywhere and in everything and it was overwhelming to the point I could not ignore it, then I continued to think about it and read up about how nature works; as knowledge grew, god shrank with no effort on my part. In fact, I exerted great effort to redefine god so it still had a place in my life. I say "it" not to poke fun, but to be inclusive. You see, god was a man(according to biblical teaching), then mother nature, then everything, and then me. I ran around those identities of god in no particular order, trying desperatly to fit it into my life, but eventually, like a slippery bar of soap, god slipped out of my grasp.

In relation to this whole debate about seeing god in things, I've noticed that you've brought up mother nature.
Now I commonly refer to 'mother nature' as 'Gaia' (I've watched "Final Fantasy - The Spirits Within" far too many times) and yet don't consider it a 'God' even though that the Greeks had a deity called Gaia who was basically an "earth goddess".
I want to know where we draw the line and what is actually considered "a god" (has this been brought up on another thread?) because I believe in many things (none of them actually religious - I don't have a faith) and think that the current understanding of the term "God" is quite vague .

Thanx
