Doe it really matter if God exists or not...?

[SnowPrince]

I was a Muslim, a very (oblivious) religious one too, and I just lately after months of pondering became agnostic.

I deem my experience far tougher compared to many of you, Muslim countries (mostly third world countries) tend to be revolving around religion and making it an essential part of the laws, morality and culture of the society. We have a lot more religious practice like praying 5 times a day and fasting to the point that abstaining from them raises quite some alarming suspicions.

Anyhow back to the subject. As agnostic, I see that God, the Creator or the Designer (if there is one) didn't bother coming at us so we aren't able to prove nor disprove his existence. It's just that human beings tried their best to justify their insecurities with His existence without any substantive evidence for it. Things started with rocks, lightening, volcanoes, earthquakes, etc. which led to a series of mythologies, before getting to where we are now, our unresolved fear of death and afterlife had created this invisible God, who's going to judge us for our deeds and reward us accordingly.

Now seeing how mind crushingly big our universe is, I hope that someday sooner than later, we can find any evidence of a life form beyond our small rock that is Earth. That alone should overthrow all the bullshit we've been fed these entire years.
