text: You ask big questions, and lots of em!\n\nI'd like to first say that the disagreement is about whether God exists or not.  There are different terms regarding peoples' views on the existence of God:\n\nTheist - a person who BELIEVES in a god or gods\nAtheist - a person who does not believe in a god or gods\n\nAgnostic - a person who does not KNOW if there is a god or gods\nGnostic - an old term for an ancient religion of people who claimed to have a special way of knowing god.\n\nWhen viewed objectively every person is agnostic.  That is, every person is the same - no person KNOWS whether there is a god or not.  Of course, many theists think that they KNOW god is real, but actually it is just a very strong belief that they have, not knowledge.\n\nThe entire argument here is really between theists and atheists - people who believe in god(s) and people who don't believe in god(s).  Since no one is able to know with certainty whether there is a god or not, all people are in fact agnostic (that is, they do not KNOW whether there is a god or not), although very few admit it.\n\nAll people are actually agnostic.  Some people are atheist.  Most people are theist.  It's an interesting question: why do most people believe in something that no one knows?  When you think about aliens (ETs or UFOs) most people don't believe in them, at least not fervently.  Maybe a few "oddballs" do, but they are generally dismissed for believing fervently in something that they just have no way of knowing.  Not so with religion, and god(s).\n\nSo the question is: what evidence is there to support a belief in god(s)?  And more to the point, why do people believe, and often believe fervently, in god(s) when the available "evidence" is:\nA) insufficient\nB) often contradicted by science\nC) often logically unsound\n\nHere are some answers to some of your questions:\n\nQUESTION ONE\n"My opinion on the subject is how can God exist if theres no physical proof he ever existed?"\nWell, perhaps we just don't have the technology to detect his existence, perhaps things do exist that we have yet to detect.  Atoms have always existed, but until we had sophisticated microscopes we did not know it, and could not prove it, but some people did theorize that they existed.\n\nQUESTION TWO\n"Secondly, why are there different religions if theres 1 god, supposedly."\nWhy are there different countries?  Well, the answer is geography, people are separated from other people, people in certain areas become one country, people in another area become another country.  Likewise, if there is a god who "reveals himself" to people in one country, they may have different stories to tell than a god who reveals himself in some other far away country, but it could be the same god! \n\n\nQUESTION THREE\n"Third, why do people who are strong "believers" always try to force you and push you to convert to there religion?"\n\nThat is a good question, which is connected to why most people are theists and also connected to why a large number of people are fervent believers despite the lack of evidence.  This could take a long time to give a thorough answer.\n\nThe primary reason that believers push their beliefs on others is because they are insecure.  Another word for insecurity is fear.  They are afraid of the world around them, and wish to control it as much as they can, in order to make themselves feel more secure.  Actually the primary reason people believe in religions (or why they believe the beliefs they push on others) is their fear, too, and the same fear that causes them to believe what they do causes them to push their beliefs on others.  People are afraid of mortality - they don't like (and very much fear) the idea that they will cease to exist, so they create complicated stories (mythologies,religions) that if they believe in it, assures them that they won't actually cease to exist -
