if its a mouse that started the universe or a grand being of energy. what ever it is that's my god.

I think when I die I will be judged how much time i cause pain in the world if it accumulates to 10 years of pain then I burn in hell for that time but after that I am set free to roam heaven

I think all beings go to heaven after they serve their time in hell even hitler himself

What about the fact that God supposedly is the Absolute Creator? He created himself out of nothing (much like you said, the universe being created from nothing) and can create anything out of nothing. If that's true, God is redundant and irrelevant, seeing as how nothingness is what creates gods, implying that nothingness is more powerful than gods.

I'm an Atheist (not hardcore, I just don't believe in God), and this thread is quite helpful for me, as I have to write a paper on this topic for my final.
There are some interesting theories that support the non-existence of God, such as God being timeless. This isn't true, as there is no escape or even entry to and from time, and if God lived outside of time he would once again be quite useless and unnecessary.

The only reason the idea of "God" ever came to be is because of people who question the unknown, and don't want to believe in anything besides the fact that some giant invisible man in the sky is pulling our strings. God will always exist in the minds of those who believe in Him, and even if by some miracle God's existence is actually disproved, they will not change their beliefs. I believe that this particular state of mind is what gives God the implications of being eternal.
