(V)..This is not to say I would just give up, that could lead me to a life of sin or a life of blind faith- both in my mind, possibly, as equally bad.Until I find the answer I seek stability and therefore I look to humanism, the idea that I can take positive values from many religions without having a strict belief system.

(IV)I still believe there could be a superior force (or God if you choose to call it that) of some form. If it could be determined as a creationist, I believe it to be far from how we imagine or is depicted in mainstream religion. Key to my thoughts is that we are an extremely ignorant and un-intelligent beings, this is not to say we cant do great it is simply to say that are biggest flaw is not realising our own ignorance.

. Just like the weather and so forth was originally seen to be a message of a Gods happiness or anger but now can be explained scientifically, so will (and to an extent is being now) Space.I personally believe, if God does exist, the Bible is far from the truth. With so many religions and religious texts varying from each other surely the logical thought would not be; there must be some sort of God, but more that everyone is getting it wrong.

(II)Why can't people get their mind round the fact that it is highly likely we are just extremely small, highly insignificant creatures on a small planet created by what just exists in a space of infinite. Theres no question of who created it, its simply just get your mind over the fact we are like an atom in a storm.

(I)I'm an agonistic but I'm sorry saying who created this all? Oh, it must be god! just doesn't cut it for meIf God created it all, who created God?What I always think is people are often looking for a beginning or reason for this earth and our existence. I believe the problem is on earth, for millions of years, all we have known is things with a start and end (e.g. life to even a simple object), or simply a circle, for this reason the concept of infinity is baffling to a human mind.
