Hi,
All people believe.
Some believe that God exist, some believe that God does not exist.
Both can not be proven.

May some thoughts about language be placed here?

Welcome Woof.
'My name is Earl' is one of my favorite sitcoms.
You need to evaluate the rationale/evidence of the belief, then pick.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Thanks for making an introduction thread. We shouldn't get too heavy into things here, maybe start a thread on belief?
For what it's worth, those are not the only options. I don't believe God is real; in fact every version of God I've heard of sounds either impossible or highy improbable, except for the God of deism, which just seems unnecessary. But I also don't believe there that no version of God actually exists.
I don't believe you have exactly 1.47 in your left front pants pocket. But I also don't believe that you
don't have exactly 1.47 in your left front pants pocket. You absolutely could. I have no way of knowing for sure until I examine the contents of your pocket. But the odds are that you don't have that exact amount of money in that particular location.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

Am I having a stroke?
No but seriously, welcome. If English isn't your primary language you may find it hard to carry a conversation here.

All people are angles.
Some think they really have a cute thing going on, but most are just obtuse.

Welcome, Carl. I look forward to discussing God's existence/non-existence with you, but you'll have to start a new thread.

Hello, Earl or Carl.
Some believe that Nessie exist, some believe that Nessie does not exist.
Both can not be proven.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
