Does God Truly Exist?
For years the ideas and perceptions of the existence of a higher presence, a god, have been debated and argued. From the god’s creation vs. evolution to the heaven vs. hell, this topic has been torn apart time and time again but I’m here to set the record straight by giving you my opinion.

This higher being, god, has been thought to have created mankind for thousands of years. The story lays out that god created Adam and Eve in the garden starting the existence of man. According to archeologists and scientists who have searched and studied that area of the world, there have been several findings which lead to the creation of man being proven. Ancient drawings and historical writings on cave walls and stones have been discovered explaining the story of god and his creation of man thousands and thousands of years before our time even had started this debate.
