Oh I gotcha, since the idea of their being a god is possible, then god has to exist because if he wasn't to exist we wouldn't be talking about him, or have people believe in him.
That's still just messing with words, because god is a belief theres no way of proving or disproving him.

Well it depends. Some religions believe in more then one God. They are called polytheism. I think one religion that does is Paganism.

If God does not exist, it is impossible for him to exist. Yet, the concept of God is not logically impossible, so he has to exist.

Dharock, first of all...hae you heard of satin.. the battle between satin and god is the reason every one is not christian and does not hold their faith, satin lives in this world and he does anything he can to make you sin against the lord.
Second..
The Holy bible is gods word written by his chosen people. For example, Genesis was written by moses in the time he was in the desert, and the holy spirit told him what to write.

Why would that have to be something before him? Time is infinite, and therefore it has no end or no beginning, meaning that god, or gods if you wish, is and are all as infinite as time itself.

Literally that makes sense, logically not so much. In my mind God does exist for the people who believe because I believe God is just a belief, not a tangible object. Kind of like an imaginary friend, it's only there if you believe in it.

Does God literally exist in your mind?
Can you show where I made a logical inaccuracy?

The way you show god, is with human characteristics. We only think of god from a human point of view. maybe it is beyond that, maybe it is something spiritual which we can not comprehend?
With the question "If God is almighty, could he create a stone so heavy, not even he can lift it?" people examin god as a human, but not a supernatural being. Maybe there is more to it, then what our mind's limits can think.

Laws of logic are just so. 2 + 2 = 4, in ALL circumstances. A circular square is, by definition, impossible. The super-natural/divine are no exception to this rule.
Also, I didn't show God with human characteristics. I showed him with just the characteristic of existence. That's all.
