some do some don't , does it free them from responsibility for their actions though i think not,

personally i feel the need for an explanation for existence but most theories of a religious nature are a little too far fetched for me. for example a being or entity that can create the universe would not i think care less if i ate a bacon sandwich (but you never know)

The answer is 42. There I am done and I didn’t even need “God”, just a really big calculator.

Only you can determine if you need God or not. What somebody else says doesn't matter.

No, I don't think people need a god, but I do feel that people need something to guide conduct. It could be a god, or it could simply be the law book.

Friends,
We are a part of god itself.
So we do not need another god of gods.
we need god when we are seperated.
this seperation itself is the illusion caused by our very own mind [THE SATAN] [The bibical story of the satan telling Adam & Eve to eat the apple of knowledge is nothing but the mind sperating us from god.
That is the very reason all enlightened people agree that one has not achived anything or gone nowhere. One is already there just have to realise that.
Love & rgds

I think personally that it's a choice more then anything else. Some religions believe that you need God & some don't I guess in how you see it.

I think god belief weakens rather than strengthens the mind, at least for me. It leads one to be comfortable with questions that remain unanswered, rather than looking for real answers.

Then you are you saying that there is the possibility that there are some real answers concerning God? The reason you don't search for answers is that you don't want to be out ot your comfort zone?

Could you please explain why you think that belief in God weakens the mind? Could you answer one other question please, do you believe that truth exists? In the event we find that there is truth it would lead us to the conclusion that we need God who is our truth.
