Default Who Can Prove God's Existence?

The concept of "God" seems pretty radical to me, and I don't see any reason or justification in the existence of God...

I believe the notion of there being a God is ridiculous and that there is no rational way of justifying a divine presence.

What do you mean, "Does it really matter?" ?...

Although I believe God doesn't exist, millions of people do. All I want is for some reasons why I should believe in a God, or at least reasons other people have supporting their own beliefs.

"All I want is for some reasons why I should believe"

No. you don't. You just said it was "ridiculous" and "that there is no rational way of justifying a divine presence. "

I think you have already made up your mind and no matter what anyone says it will not be good enough for you. In fact this debate has been over before it started.

Further more, I think your only goal here is to criticize other people simply because they believe something other then you do.

I don't mean to criticize for the sake of criticizing, and yes, I have made up my mind to an extent. I mean to say that I don't know if there is a God, that I don't see any reasons for me to believe (not that there aren't any) , and that I would like to know where other people who do believe draw from to maintain their faith. My motives and goals aren't to criticize, but to learn of and try to understand beliefs other than my own. I'm curious, but don't mean to be condescending.

You might want to try a search as this topic is very, very common around here.

Who Can Prove God's Existence?
Many concepts seem pretty radical to me.

Who can prove Gods existence, well God of course, who else? Nobody on earth even knows what God per se even looks like.

If so, why don't all humans believe in God? And who are some people who fall into that category?
