I personally believe in God. I am going to play devils advocate for a second and try to give everyone a different perspective for a moment. Even if there is truly no God out there ,is the fact that 90% of the worlds populace believe in a God in one form or another such a bad thing?

I am not going to waste time doing the research for you but ask yourself these questions. 1; What would the world be like without the basic tenants in the bible (Thou shalt not murder, love thy neighbor etc)? Here is a simple answer absolute anarchy if there was absolute proof that no higher power existed and 90% of us believed in that proof this world would be a hell hole to live. A life with no after life, means do what ever you want, there are no consequences...You feel like raping that woman because shes hot in a mini skirt go for it, you want to murder that guy for his Rolex,hey why not you only live once right.....

2: who can honestly say the world is not better having 90% of its people believing in God and following a moral set of guidelines which is laid out in almost every religion?
