I honestly have no idea. I believe in Science, and yet there are so many religions out there I don't believe they can be wrong. Yet a lot of famous and smartest people in the world who are scientists find a equilibrium between religion and science. I have my entire life ahead of me, and I have plenty of time to decide and discover.

There is no equilibrium because that is an argument from ignorance
The number of religions have nothing to do with the truth

I hope this doesn't cause flame but here it goes. Remember this is my personal opinion:
I think there has to be someone that makes all the shots. It isn't just luck. It isn't just chance. It isn't just like everything that has ever been created has just randomly spawned into a realm of knowledge and fallibility. I just think that there has to be someone who is pushing us along in life and making sure some things don't come about us. Someone who is always there even if it may not seem like it. Someone who seems like they are. Honestly there is no 100% evidence of God. I can't show you something and you just believe. You just have to have faith honestly. You can't also say 100% that there is no deity with evidence either if you really think about it.

Okay here's my best explanation for God allows bad things happen in the world:
Imagine a mother putting her daughter in a chair to eat lunch. The child looks at the ground and wants to be there so it falls off the chair through its own choice. The child begins crying because he/she hit the ground and it hurt while the mother allowed and watched the child perform the action to teach them a lesson. Not to fall off chairs. I hope that made sense. We have bad things in the world so that we can become stronger people and learn to love each other more is basically what I'm saying.

Personally I'm not going to argue with you about whether who's deity/deities is/are greater because I'm less about dividing religions and more about just living out whatever life you feel called to personally/intellectually/spiritually.

I'm a fan of the "moment of silence in public schools to worship in whatever way you feel.

Who said it was luck?
And your brain controls everything else you just asserted, not god.

a) I'm trying to make a point that everything has an order
b) That's the whole philosophy behind atheism. It's that everything that we do we control and that there is nothing else helping us besides ourselves and other people who support us in our endeavors.

Nothing has an order. Everything is actually disorder at the most fundamental scale. Nothing is predictable.

Please provide some proofs of your proposition, thanks.
