To what degree do you believe in God ?

To what what degree do you believe in God ?

Zero degree.

Which one?

We’ve done this poll many times before. Are you after something further? What are you trying to draw a conclusion about?

Didn’t we do a poll on this not long ago? Or maybe that was a classification poll. Anyway, I don’t believe to any extent that there is an all-seeing being who takes a personal interest in the mundane day-to-day existence of humans. Science provides far more proof of how we came to be here: I believe that God was created by humans (not the other way around) to explain what was then unexplainable.

Any supreme omnipotent being.

Category 1 and 7 are of most interest to me.

Not only do I not believe, I’m absolutely 100% positive there’s isn’t a god.

I do not believe at all. Of course, I could be wrong but I highly, highly doubt it.

I selected the second option. The existence of God is absolutely consistent with my both my experiences and my world view that I feel is consistent with those experiences and with the objective evidence available. His non-existence, while seemingly possible, is not something I have been able to rectify with any substantial part of that.

I did not select the first option because, frankly, I’m in the process of a crisis of faith, such that I have, in fact, examined the possibility of his non-existence as mentioned above. And while I have concluded that I do, indeed, believe in God, it is certain particular characteristics that I have not yet been able to ascertain and, thus, doesn’t allow my faith to be at that degree of absoluteness.

I picked “I simply do not believe in a God” because that was closest, but a more accurate description of my opinion would be “God is impossible”. Internally contradictory and in direct contradiction to reality.

Wait. How can it possibly be a function of degree? If you believe in God, it’s 100 percent, right?

I think I’m a classic agnostic. I can’t know - to a provable certainty - one way or the other. And that’s where I leave it. I do lean strongly towards atheism however, but I refuse to “call it”. I think it’s more intellectually honest and ego-free to say that I can’t know. I don’t think anyone can - not the pope and not the world’s smartest atheist. They can’t know.

Yet another “I simply do not blah blah”

Although the options aren’t mutually exclusive. Technically I should tick:

[ul]
[li][Some definitions of] god [are] possible[/li][li]God is not likely[/li][li]I simply do not believe in a God[/li][/ul]

Interesting poll. And interesting results.
As far as people posting polls that have been posted in the past, that’s only an issue if your member list is stagnant.
If you have any fluidity to your members, there’s sure to be new people (like me) that haven’t seen the “old” stuff.

I like an answer given in a somewhat similar previous thread by ataraxy22:

I don’t believe in him, but I don’t not believe in him either. It’s a big universe out there, and it wouldn’t surprise me if something out there couldn’t be classified as a god.

The nonexistence of god wins in a landslide!

I voted “simply do not believe” but it is stronger than that - more “not bloody likely.”

Do you feel that way about all hypothetical entities?

Catholic by convenience.
