Ultimately, I'm not entirely sure that believing in God affects whether or not you are a good man. After all, there have been very bad religious people and very good atheists, and vice versa. If there is a God, and if he is truly great, then he will still see that it is the man who has lived well and given or benefited more his fellow man that shall still go to heaven before the man who believed in God, but lived badly.

I frequently fall short of the standards that I set myself, and what I expect in terms of living in a way that has a positive effect on those around me, but all I can do is pick myself, and live as best as I know how. Whether or not there is a God looking down, or not looking down, seems the secondary question to me.
People are stuck in thinking like that. That is true, but its one point of view, yet again from a human point.

How about God looking out from behind our own eyes but we dont feel it or realize it because we are too caught up in our own story lines, likes, dislikes and we hold that above everything else.


Believing in doesnt matter,it has no effect on what is or isnt. On the other hand, wishing into non existence will create exactly that for those who strive for that experience. Because that is what they wish to experience it will be given to them freely. That still wont mean, God doesnt exist; it just means there's a place with boarders where that can be experienced in full.
