I was wondering... does anyone believe that a god, or someone created the universe?/
Yep.
Why?
Anyhow, middle school mathematics teaches that if the probability of one thing occuring is slim, then the probability of it *not* happening is high. And the chance that the functions of the human body just came together and *happened* is, as George Gallup so nicely said, a statistical monstrosity. So probability-wise, a Creator has a fairly good chance of existing.
So, well... that's why I believe it. I might as well believe the theory with the higher probability. <shrug>
