You can't have order without a little chaos?

I can, but I'm sure a God would be able to make a universe without chaos.

Existance/non-existance of God.. interesting..
What if God was outside existance? (the is and isn't)
I think that makes sense without being logical..
Limits of logic really play a key factor in this discussion I believe.

Honestly, it doesn't matter to me whether or not there is a God. I grew up as a Christian, but have sense then decided that I'm not going to affiliate myself with religion. Why? Well it's something we created, whether the events that were created happened or not (i.e. The Last Supper). It's not specifically for just that reason, but it's one example that's easiest to explain for me.
Growing up as a Christian, I've seen how important religion is to a lot of people, and I respect that. It's how they were born and raised and one thing I know for sure is that our beliefs are extremely important to us. What good am I doing by ruining their beliefs and possibly causing them grief and problems within family? I'm not getting anything out of it that is beneficial for both of us, so why bother?
The only thing I do not like about religion are those extremists, but that goes for everything.
So in short:
Do I believe in God?
-It's complicated, but overall, no.
Am I an atheist?
-No because I'm not going to be arrogant and say that I KNOW God doesn't exist, because I don't. Know one does. Besides that though, I don't consider myself an atheist because atheism affiliates with religion and I just try to stay away from being involved with religion in general.
Do I think we should stay completely away from religion?
-Nonsense. The Bible and other religious books are a great source to adopt values for life and give you guidelines of rules to follow (i.e. The 10 commandments).
I apologize if this is hard to understand, but I have trouble explaining things in depth when it comes to these kinds of things. I tried my best though on this one because it's something I think is important.

The story I've heard is that God is showing us what life is like without him in our lives.
Do I believe that? I don't know. You can take it as you want, however.
