Catholicism Question

how do you know God exists?

I was baptised and raised Catholic but I am an atheist. When I was Catholic I could never grasp the concept of God (which is probably why I'm Atheist), how are you guys and girls 100% sure he/she is even up there? How do you know? What gives you comfort in knowing that Earth is just a test? I'm just curious and sorry if I offend anyone with my non-religious views

I may be an atheist, but I have never tried to convert anyone, but christians always want to convert me

There is no proof God doesn't exist....example:When scientists say that the big bang started the universe, and then say the big bang came from a mysterious speck of dust, well, where do YOU think that small speck of dust came from?

Scientificly there is no god... but there is so much science can't teach... so much more to discover. As catholics we believe there is a god and the perfect world around us cant be an accident. There was a man travelling to a lecture by Louis Pasteur, well known scientist in the late 1800. the man was an atheist. an old man walking beside was praying when the young man explained that with science there was no possibility of a god. as the lecture began Louis Pasteur sat up and began to talk. Louis Pasteur was the old man that was praying earlier. The young man became a priest.... TRUE STORY!!! I BELIEVE IN GOD!!!!!!!!!!

I agree, when I am very still, I can feel Him telling me that he loves me.

Faith. If you have faith then you believe in God, his teachings and his only son Our Lord. And if you look around some bad things and good things that happen suddenly are Gods way of saying he is watching humans on earth. Everything happens for a reason, some may not make sense in your life, or mine- I get frustrated and confused all the time, but it must be part of our journey. God does want you to make your own decisions and think for yourself. WE are meant to live our lives not his. That is why I disagree with overly religious people. They are no better than the next person. Everyone has problems, and no one is perfect. That includes the Pope. The only perfect person to walk on earth is Christ himself.

No one is 100% sure God exsists. True Catholics can believe in something (or someone) that they can't see or hear. It is called faith.

He speaks softly to me in a way that I can't understand by words, but by emotions. He comes to me when I am alone and quiet or in need. I have always found it easier and more officient to pray outdoors and surrounded by nature than in a Church. Thank you for listening to my opinion.

He's answered my prayers when I need him too. I believe that scientific processes don't quite happen by themselves. They have a starter or motivator and that being is God. Seeing isn't always believing.

Thru faith. Just cuz u don't see Him, doesn't mean He isn't there. The same with wind. I've seen Him work in my life & others' lives as well.

A friend of my aunt's passed out, & was cold when my aunt found her. She took the friend to the hospital, where the girl went straight into a coma. It turned out that she had a horrible reaction to not enough insulin, & she was given a day or two to live (brain dead basically). We all prayed & prayed (even some who didn't even know her), & just a day & a half after that diagnosis, she opened her eyes, & made a speedy recovery, as if nothing went wrong.

My uncle was very sick with viral spinal meningitis. He had to stay in the hospital, but his temperature, & blood pressure kept skyrocketing, so he was taken to the ICU. They had doubts about his condition. A lot of people prayed when they found out about it, & shortly thereafter, my uncle got discharged with a clean bill of health. If that isn't The Lord working in our lives, I don't know what is.

I don't get it when some say that evolution THEORY & Big Bang THEORY r close to correct, when theyre labeled as theories=speculations, opinions, & no confirmation, while The Bible has not been directly disproven. Just everyone being in denial. I'm not gonna bash anyone else's beliefs, but to say it's been scientifically proven that God doesn't exist, I'd like to know how. It's just another plain theory for that. Faith in The Lord always.

Well, I know God exists for many reasons. Mainly, how would anything begin if not for a God? Science has tried to explain things but has only gotten so far. I love science and still am a devout Catholic. Another reason I know God exists is because of miracles. My aunt had a stroke and fell into a coma, while in the coma another stroke hit. The doctors told my uncle that it was a very slight chance she would ever wake up and that if she did she would be brain dead. They said he should pull the plug, but my uncle had faith and prayed by her beside for months upon months and finally one day she just woke up! Her brain had completely rewired, so that she works just like other people but her brain has to work diffferently. God performs miracles if we have faith. The only time Jesus was unable to heal people in the bible was in a town where they had no faith. @snusu13 just because you are an athiest I don't find your opinion insulting, some christians try to cram the bible down peoples throats instead of having a discussion. If they were confident enough in their faith like I am they wouldn't be afraid of discussion.
