I agree that some cultures have invented gods and/or goddesses to explain the world around them. For instance, it is often believed that the Greeks invented the story of Zeus to explain the lightning. However, I do not believe that all stories of any god are a myth. As to the difference between humans and God, I would say we are as different as the potter and the clay. God is a supernatural being while we are carbon based life forms.
Absolutely, God exists. Evidence of God's existence can be found in the infinite diversity and detail of all creation, in the spirit of love and caring found within the heart of humanity, in the miracle of life in all its richness.
I agree with posts 2 and 3, as far as the physical world is concerned. But I find the strongest proof in the way in which people care for and love each other. I don't believe that a godless universe would be populated by people who were willing to sacrifice for each other. This is the part of God that lives within us working through us.
I would suggest that something had to create the universes as we know it. When driving around, looking at the awesome scenery, I cannot help but think about the beauty of it all. Given that nothing else has bee actually proven, why not give credit to such an omnipotent power as God?
The strongest argument for the existence of God, in my opinion, is the existence of the universe. It may well be implausible to assume God exists, but the whole idea that the universe even exists is implausible in itself. If our universe can exist, I see nothing outrageous about believing that God exists and God created that universe.
