Does God Exist?

Among all the sufferin that exist among humanity, is it possible to still believe in a Omnipotent and Holy God? If it so, then, whats the origin of God? who created him? There are many questions with no logical answers, but When asked “Who or what created God?” we are making the assumption that God was created. If God exists independently of time and space, and if He is the Creator of time and space, He migth not be creation, God began the beginning. What do you think is the answer? Do you think that this hypothesis make sense?

How is it possible to understand the evil and the good in the world? How can you know the difference between evil and good? On what do you base your answer? I found myself thinking about the difference between good and evil, and I was trying to comparea the two different terms and I could not find a definition of what good is or evil is, is like morals, you cannot based them on feelings or in a universal code for all. Plato defines evil as the lack of goodness. The duality theory states that evil cannot exist withouth good, and good cannot exist without evil. The way I can understand these two terms is by understanding that something evil cause harm, while a good action cause or brings a satisfactory feeling. If Humanity is more attracted to a desire of good, what are the reasons that lead to one's choice in performing evil acts?

Values!

I was entering to a restaurant and I noticed that hardly no one opens the door to the person who is coming behind them, I observed there while I was waiting to be seated and several guys didn't even open the the door for girls. What is happening with the gentleman's now days? No more opening the car door, no flowers, or chocolates. I think that many young people might say that those things are old school and girls don't appreciate them anymore, but who does not like a guy to send her flowers or chocolates? Who doesn't like a gentlement? The values have changed with time, now it seems that the girls needs to treat the boys, and maybe it is because of the idea of feminism that we are all the same, but i think it is also education and values that parents provide to their children since little. Kindness with others is a value that we as society are losing, if you are walking on the street hardly anyone says hi! or good morning! Everyone is becoming so self-centered that we don't look around to see that there are others that also exist and that by providing a simple smile or a Hi! to a stranger can make the other person feel better. Cell phones and texting have also stop us from communicate one to one, sometimes there is a group of more than two people together, and instead of talking with themselves each of them is with their cellphone texting! Whats the point? I mean if you have something to share, share it with the person you have infront not by texting. What do you think is the main reason why now days we are less kind and humble with others?
