Defending the Faith

Those without faith, can you honestly deny God? Can you honestly look around you, look in a mirror at your incredibly intricate being, at your uniqueness from every other person who's ever walked the planet and who ever will walk it in future; can you look at all that and deny the existence of a God? How can you really claim that this all happened one day by chance by some arbitrary forces and particles that were pressurized, and BANG! Human life! Really? Some force of nature created us? All of us, individuals with feelings and minds and bodies so complex that thousands of years of science and research have still failed to make sense of. Or perhaps you insist that we evolved, that after the earth came to be there were organisms that became creatures that became mammals that became humans. And then we stop? I didn't know that evolution reaches an end point. Isn't that contradictory? Evolution, an evolving cycle, a circle, never ending. And if we evolved from apes, why do apes still exist? Why are the remaining apes not evolving? But even still, even with the absurdity and flaws in the theory, still lets pause and consider the possibility that we did come to be through evolution. Does that really change anything? Really, at the very core of what I believe, why does that matter overly much? Does it matter whether creation lasted 6 days or 6 billion years? No, I still do not doubt my God. My God who created the ever changing oceans, the still unknown number of sea life below. My God who forms each cloud and sends out each raindrop. My God who changes the weather, who allowed natural catastrophes which appall even the most learned scholars. My God whose presence I feel always. Those who want proof are closing their eyes. There is no way to prove to a blind person that colour exists. They call believers narrow minded, and yet they fail look at themselves and see how they have God's own fingerprint etched deep onto their very souls. If you exist how can you possibly doubt God's existence? If there was no God, if you truly are determined to outright proclaim his non-existence, how can you live? If I had no God fear would be engulfing. If I had no God every terrible thing in this world would consume me and I would still feel empty. There would be no peace in this world of war. If you don't know God's peace how can you expect to sow peace on earth. There would be no hope in our world of despair. Nothing to live for, nothing to love for, nothing to strive for, nothing to trust in. If this world was void of a God we could not have survived this long. If there is no God, there is no good. If there is no devil, there is no evil. There would be no white and no black, only grey or white would be black and black would be white. We would be without a conscience and therefore human beings as a species would have killed each other off. With unsuppressed violence and unchallenged hatred, we would have self destructed. Without God, there would never be this argument because without God we could not exist. But just incase there's something I've overlooked, perhaps it's safer not to generalize, rather, without God, I would not, could not exist.
