Is there a GOD??

[Seminarysnoozer]

I believe in a God, a creator-something that I cannot comprehend. But it never felt natural to pray to such a being, and I have not really prayed in a great many years.

When I was a neo-pagan I "gave thanks" to the sun and moon and earth, for sustaining the life of the world.

I am not an athiest, never have been.

Do I believe Jesus existed, yes, do I believe he was the Son of God, I don't know.

I do know even if I became a Mormon or a Baptist or anything, I'd still be a "loner" (I am not a social butterfly by any means and can never concentrate properly in a great big room of people).

That is a huge hurdle as the very nature of God is His social dependency. The glory of God is to bring about the immortality and eternal life of man. This is, in part, why we put so much importance on family. Family is a good way to develop those social skills. A lack of family interaction puts people at a huge disadvantage (not to say that is what is happening with you, just speaking in general). Take advantage of family ties to help develop that God-like character.

I didn't see my extended family much at all growing up. I love them geography just kept us apart (10 hours by car ride far)

Now that I moved to where most of them are, I have really gotten to know them in the past few months.

It was odd at first, to have an extended family like that. But its nice and they are good folk.

As a Latter-day Saint your best bet at some sort of rational evidence for Gods existence would be the moral argument.
