Do you believe there's actually a "god" or do you think we were created by another supernatural being like aliens and such?

[lightbulb27]

I think there "is" God, not that God is an "IS". Bible calls it "I am that I am". To me that is foundational energy which flows through all. Science/Quantum physics is showing how everything is intertwined and connected, and yet barely understands anything.

It's a leap of thinking to believe, but it feels good once you do. Is it false and imaginary, I don't know. That's a choice. Our powerful brains like to live within the box we made for ourselves. But we don't understand that much. We don't even understand time.

Humans had to deal with all these same questions when we lacked technology. We could build pyramids and calculate all kinds of stuff back 1000's years ago, but they had to confront the same questions. Who are we? How did we get here? Where are we going? Al this in the face of suffering and knowing we are goign to go back to the dust we were made from. It's a humbling set of questions.

It gets to what is the "real" God then, if there is one? To me, Jesus answered that the best and clearest and demonstrated it If it's a lie, it is the best lie ever told because it perfectly feeds the human heart and soul... the only thing that matters. It discards the body, which we know will decay, and saves the essence "soul"... is that light? Are we just a tiny spec of light, occupying a physical electrochemical human form which burns out within 100 years? But where does the essence/light go after that. Some science indicates there is a spirit as when someone dies, there is a slight weight change. Not sure I buy that, but it's some evidence.

Aliens. Never met one. If you can believe in aliens, then you can believ ein anything. Why not believe in a God that loves you and just wants a deep relationship with you for eternity? Because it stretches your mind and soul to do so and feels like a lie. Lies are covered in the Bible for we were separated from God... by a lie.

[Aethereal]

I don't believe there is a "god". Not in the popular sense anyway. I believe that if there is a god, he/she/it has proven to have as much interest in us as you or I might have for a grain of sand in the desert. Thus such an entity is unworthy of reverence.

As for humans; I believe we are the product of millennia of evolution, just like other animals on this planet, and others that can sustain life. If we were in fact created by aliens, the questions to dwell on are: who created the aliens then? Other aliens? Who created the first aliens that started the cycle of creating aliens? What kind of aliens will we one day create? (yes, I'm having fun).

I have observed that mankind has a (narcissistic?) obsession with being "special" in relation to everything else. Religion seems to have perpetuated and reinforced this idea with it's higher powers that created a "chosen people". In a way, the idea that we were created by aliens can then be slotted into the large list of religions we already have (since they are in this case, the "higher power").

I prefer to believe in both our current insignificance, and also in our near limitless potential to destroy this insignificance. We are special by what we achieve, not by receiving the title from equally insignificant outsiders.

[Ozanne]

No god. No aliens. Science can explain things for you, even if it's not as romantic as the things you read in the bible. Instead it's raw, gritty, devastating, and beautiful - all at different times, and yet all at the same time.

With that said, you might enjoy this. It's a documentary on how the earth was created. Basically our first living ancestors were single-celled organisms formed in the water (as the land itself was incapable of supporting life). From there they became either plants or sea life. Naturally we evolved from the sea life.https://www.youtube.com/embed/gTsJubN68WEIt's an hour and a half, but it's worth watching.

[navyrobin]

We were not "created" out of nowhere. We evolved to become the humans we are today.

Nobody knows the true origin of the Universe, besides that. But I'm very sure that we're very lucky to be here, as the chances of living alone as a human race is approximately 1 in 10^2,685,000.

I'm glad to be alive

[Wade8888]

I believe there is a God, and I've had precognitive Dreams come to pass before, so I'm pretty sure that proves there is a God. Through Prayer and other means, I believe God has told me advanced Aliens have visited the Earth on at least 3 separate times. Once about a thousand years ago, once a few decades ago, and once several million years ago.

No, Aliens did not create humans. The method of creating or evolving a lifeform more complex than the simplest virus is beyond mortal comprehension.

Also "Fallen Angels" did not and cannot breed with humans, just for the record, and "Aliens" are not supernatural, they are biological and most are Carbon-based, but not all life is carbon based.

[zeitgeist057]

The way you created the poll, it is unclear what a person is voting for if they vote either way. Are you saying "Yes there is a god" or are you saying "Yes we were created by aliens" or are we saying "No, we were created by aliens, or "No, there is a god" or "No, we were not created"...

It's too vague. So, no point in voting and the results are going to be skewed by whatever a person was thinking when they answered even though they could answer the same as someone else but think the opposite thing was true.

[Craftsman]

I think an alien race genetically modified some of the simians they found on this planet to do their dirty work of mining and maybe cleaning the spaceship and doing the dishes. They created a slave/working/serving class, and as such those creatures were made to worship and adore the aliens they served. That kept mutinies and other clashes down, and productivity up. When our creator aliens left, they just turned humans out in the field to fend for themselves. That's the loss of the Garden of Eden. We still worship and adore the Chief of the Creator Aliens, because we are wired to do so.
Now the question is, who created the Aliens that created us? Inquiring minds want to know!!

[OfDeath]

Well, going on what has been discovered, it would appear we weren't created by a sentient being of any kind. We evolved into what we are through the broad process of natural selection.

There isn't a reason to believe there is or was a god which the universe was created by. Suggesting that there might be a god is fine but as soon as you claim there definitely is god, you leave the adults and go to sit down at the children's table. Every aspect of reality which one might suggest is attributed to the creation of god, is a gap in scientific knowledge. The truth of these matters is that nobody knows why they are that way/how they came to be so. To claim "god did it" is an empty fantasy.

[Vetis]

In fact, God is a being.

To believe he exists requires you to believe spirits exist.

Spirits = gods.
The Holy Spirit = God.

gods were widely believed to have their physical presence as idols, or inside of a building.

This is because religion needed gods, and adherents. The adherents were often too stupid to conceptualize god as a metaphysical being. So idols became the gods themselves.

I adamantly believe that spirits exist. So denying, their existence, makes you, spiritually dead.

Denying the Holy God opens you up to false gods.

I will always believe this.

[talloak]

Technically, aliens would not be supernatural beings, just more advanced. I personally believe that God created the universe. I don't believe that any human religion represents God accurately or that any human religion could. The simplifications required to be comprehensible to humans distort the truth too much to be really true.

[somedaysinger1227]

First of all, sorry Science but it's totally ridiculous that life could be created by something called a, "Big Bang," I mean, whoever came up with that needs to get a big bang in the HEAD so that they can finally start thinking straight.
The only way to find out for yourself who the one god is is to study the different religions and put a lot of time into it. I think it's something that everyone should do so that they can understand where they really came from and where they're going, it brings so much peace to finally know.

[Phoenix_Red]

I think god is the creator of all things in the universe and god created aliens and other universes. I read a sci-fi book where they came in contact with other life forms and in the book the called god the MAKER because they realized after coming in contact with other beings we are all created

[Yaaten]

Your question is actually two in one. To which do I answer 'Yes'? - "Do you believe there is a God?", or "Do you think we were created by aliens?"
In response to the first I have to say YES. The latter no, because aliens clearly do not exist, and they wouldn't be supernatural if they did.

[goaded]

We've all experienced lies and misunderstandings, told lies ourselves, seen them in others, scientists have even noticed lies in animals. Nobody's got any evidence of a God. So, there's an infinitely higher chance that Gods are a human invention than a real thing.

[purplepoppy]

The problem with the god theory is nature is full of monumental fuckups. Things that no intelligent designer would do. This is often used as a strong argument against a so called infallible god.
But what if there wasn't one god but a factory of aliens producing stuff on an industrial scale and some of them were pretty shit at their job?

[loveslongnails]

Call it what you will, but I don't believe there's "nothing" else going on and that we all evolved from slime for over billions of years. There's a great power that we can not explain, but I'm not going to get bogged down in a discussion about it, or what we call it. As to "extra-terrestrials", any intelligent beings wouldn't purposely interact with us stupid humans yet, in my opinion! However, they could be dumb too. After all, humans can make it to other planets or moons right now, and we're STILL all fucked up. Maybe they were too if they actually were here!

[Anonymous]

Yes I believe there is a God. Aliens are demons in disguises. How was the world going to tell people where all the Christians go when they get ruptured they’re gonna say that aliens abducted us. They are going to start saying that aliens are real aliens on the service they have already started this.

[Anonymous]

A few scientists who were avid atheist's have started changing there mind saying the chances of some perfection are almost impossible. Now I am not saying 'God' is loving and caring, I personally think he/she/they are quite cruel. But I think there is something there that science doesn't currently understand

I think aliens are extremely likely. It's just based on chance and stats. The vast number of planets out there just makes sense that they are there. If one looks at historical artifacts and records some drawings and sculptures of aliens are difficult to dispute. Also if one looks at the bible, a lot can be pointed to alien's.

[TheDomimantOne]

Scripture is very clear, there will be no excuse for anyone to say that "God doesn't exist!" Because everything on earth screams His glory!

"For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him."Everything we can see and cannot see is for His glory. Even the demons bring Him glory, knowing that He alone is God. James 2:19

[Madhatter920]

I don't believe we were created by anything. I think meteors hit the earth, then a chemical reaction happened at the bottom of the ocean near geothermal vents and life came into being. Then it evolved into us and every other living thing on the planet over the course of billions of years. I don't think any intelligent being had anything to do with it whatsoever.

[Newhead]

Then who created aliens? I believe that there is a non physical entity that is bigger than everything in all the universe that is in charge, you can call it the divine, God, existence or whatever term you choose. By the way, one very credible psychic predicted by next year we will be getting visits from aliens who will offer assistance to humans because we are stupid.

[tHISpLACEiSbONKERZ]

All religions are just fairy tales of man who wanted answers but knew nothing of science so they came up with some ridiculous stories. Remember, they bible was written by a bunch of guys who didn't even know where the sun went at night, if you want answers this is not a good place to look for them.

[Liam_Hayden]

Irrelevant. Unless we want to accept the absurdity of an infinite regression or the even more absurd idea of nothing becoming something, there is someone or something that has always had the essence of being. appealing to aliens simply moves it back a generation. Or two. Or 1,000,000. Doesn't matter. There is still some self-existent point of origin.

[jshm2]

It's spelled "God" - you simpleton.

Also, if they are "aliens" then they cannot be "supernatural".

You need to pay more attention in school, kiddo.

[Andres77]

"... the heavens declare the glory of God and the skies show His handiwork..."

You have a conscience. You already know the answer.

You don't have to act like you believe in Him. You ARE going to die one day. When you're standing before your Creator... that you denied and ignored... it will be too late.

Choose wisely...

[Anonymous]

The human race (Adam) was formed outside of The Garden Of Eden, and placed inside The Garden by God, and then He formed Eve from Adam.
There is no other "life" in the Universe. Just us Earthlings.
God consists of:
God the Father... God the Son (Jesus)... God the Holy Spirit

[zombiekitty]

There should be a third option: "I don't know"/I'm agnostic.
in my opinion, human reason is incapable of providing sufficient rational grounds to justify either the belief that God exists or the belief that God does not exist. Therefore, the existence of God, of the divine or the supernatural can not be known.

[MissDawn7961]

something created every 1 and every thing and it was not a - human , animal , bird or insect - ! it was God ! thanks

[Anonymous]

There's no "god". Is it possible aliens had a hand in human development? I guess. That wouldn't make them gods. But right now, there's no need of that particular hypothesis. The laws of nature do a perfectly fine job of getting us here as it stands.

[ManOnFire]

I believe God is real and alive. What we know of as "aliens" are actually demons. Why would these extraterrestrial beings keep themselves such a secret? And why only appear at night?

[Gedaria]

The Bible explains, all this.
It gives us information that it could only come from God.
But if you don't accept there is a God , why does it matter to you.
I don't believe in aliens and little green men.

[Fuentes]

Yes i believe god and i believe what we call Aliens are fallen Angels kicked outta heaven who once lived on earth but fucked shit up so god flooded it and they ran off of earth and those nephillim benes we seek are the true Aliens

[kingofthellamas]

I think this is reductive. Like, why could people only have a beleif in life from God or aliens? Surely there is a whole spectrum of other possible options.

[Pete671]

I believe God is an invisible concierge to guide us on the earth plane to do the right thing,,,
We came from spirit and will eventually return to spirit, but before we were born we needed authorisation from God to be here,,,

[ramchandra9971]

Theory says sun created the earth means sun is alien and if not how an alien created us
Radhe radhe

[Fromdusktilldawn]

I believe there are aliens out there but certainly not that there is a supernatural being with magic powers called god. Maybe in the way an extremely advanced alien civilization would be seen as god to us since their tech would look like magic to us.
Its possible a meteor with alien microbes landed on earth and life evolved.

[Dargil]

I believe there is a Creator who is still creating.

[reixun]

I don’t know but the book i’m reading rn is pointing me towards “yes”

[blondfrog]

I believe creationism and evolution can co-exist. I believe in a god but not sure if any religion has it 100% right.

[wittymilf]

Ypu know you can’t get a result from this pill right? 😂😌 this is a clever 😆 funny.

[andreasderjuengere]

This is an 'incomplete' question:
One may wonder who has made/created the aliens?
(or the Such)

[EssenceOfLight]

Yeah, they did.
Evolution seems to be sometime too rapid just to be natural process.

[_no_one_]

I think it's possible that the first living cell was coded like a seed of an AI by some higher dimensional or extraterrestrial species.

[zagor]

You realize of course that those aren't the only choices.

[Ad_Quid_Orator]

I think we were "created" by abiogenesis and evolution by natural selection.

Also, aliens aren't "supernatural beings".

[najekim]

Well, I wouldn't be surprised if Humanity was an "alien" experiment that went bad. :)

[Eleni079]

I believe we were Marians and moved to Earth after Mars became no longer live able.

[MountAverage]

You really think those are the only two possibilities? lol

[breakinggme]

My parents created me. This is not a belief. I know this for a fact.

[Biancatsumi1991]

I believe God exists and he created us. I don't know why I believe, I just believe.

[psychoticanimallover]

Are those the only two options?

[pigoat]

We were created by each other only adam and eve

[CountessSarah]

No, I don't accept either of these propositions.

[Astarlessnightsky]

No and No.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

I believe there could be a god. Im agnostic.

[Quackthulu]

No, I'm an educated adult.

[Anonymous]

Yes and no but who created them

[OddBeMe]

Why is this the only two options?

[Jmmmfi4]

Yes I believe in God

[msc545]

I have no real idea.

[admles]

None of the above.

[Ruenella_]

God, of course.
