[quote="Bean 2":b15b6]I myself am agnostic which means that I dont follow any religion but I still believe that their is a God. I cant understand people who think that there is no god and they call themselves atheist. There has to be some higher power who created the universe. It all had to come from somewhere, and yes science can explain the earths creation, but what about before that. Like was said before, the bible only tells stories that shouldnt be taken literally. I dont criticize anyone for believing in a religion but it annoys me when they try to push their religion and beliefs on other people which I think alot of Christians do. The rest of my family are Catholics, yet they dont go to church and from what I see they dont pray. How can you call yourself anything if you dont practice what the religion is based on. And Ive never told them that im agnostic because I know that they would try to convert me back to Catholicism. Believe in what you want but dont force your beliefs on me.[/quote:b15b6]

a higher power creating the universe is beyond comprehension and is only a dream. it would totally deny all scientific findings to this date. how can you believe in something that doesn't exist or doesn't matter? and why need to worship something when it doesn't seem to give you benefits. (my opinion) if a god really paid attention to everyone, then why do good people die? (oh it was just his/her time) oOo:
