Personaly my beliefs are as follows; while I don't believe in an all powerfull god I am open to the suggestion that some form of higher intelligence my have had an influence on our evolution. However there is no evidence to support this while there is evidence that we could evole without external influence.

My reasons for not believing in a religous god are as follows; Most religions state that god created man. If this is the case then why are most religions regiospecific? If a god created all of mankind why does it choose a specific race to comunicate with? Surely it would view all man as equalsand talk to all peoples?

The thing is, God doesn't choose a specific race to talk with, he talks with all people. The reason why God bleassed the Israelites and the (eventually arabic muslims) was because of the promise that he made with Abraham. Also, whose to say that God didn't talk to anybody else throughout all of human history? All in all God does talk to all people.

If god talks to all people then why do the most prominent single diety belief systems come from a specific region in the world. (ie Judaism, Christaintiy and Islam from the middle east). Almost all american (north and south), asian (sub continent and oriental), oceanic, european and african belief sytems have multiple gods.
