Is there a Superior Power/God? (Initial Discussion)

As you go around asking people about their views related to the existence of a higher power/God, you will definitely encounter several types of reactions. These views vary from the highly right wing religious fanatics who think that the subject is definitely above discussion. God Exists and He/She (definitely fanatics consider God as a HE) has set his one and only way, which is definitely their own view, that they already follow. The other extreme would be the one denying any existence of any higher power. For them, the world has been there since the big bang, evoluting from its initial state by mere chance and random incidents and billions of possibilities...
In this blog, I would like all views to be expressed freely. No taboo, and no subject forbidden, except those carrying disrespect to the view of others, and with Disrespect, I mean insulting the value of the different views, and using profane language in the discussion. So let us discuss it:

What are the reasons For and against the existance of a higher power/God/gods????

Jehovah's witnesses have been the best failures in assigning dates. They started by 1884, 1887, 1914, 1925, 1975, generation of 1914.. Etc. Seventh Day Adventists had one failing prediction of 1844. Recently, some small groups of Born Again Christians started also assigning some dates. May 21, 2011 was one widely marketed date, while Hal Lindsay assigned the generation ending 1988 to witness the end of the world. All of the above dates did not witness anything unusual, in the supernatural sense of the world. Now the question arises: Are we supposed to know when Christ will come and the end of the Current world will be reached? 1. The Bible clearly says that the exact dates are

The Gehenna that Jesus Spoke About (Brief Introduction)

When Jesus was speaking of "age-lasting punishment/purification" (wrongly translated "everlasting punishment") in Gehenna, He was addressing a topic very well known by his Jewish community, and the fake teaching of Eternal Conscious Torment is a perversion of that teaching... The Valley of Hinnom (Ge-Hinnom)in 1900 (Wikipedia) One of the major Mistakes that Christians do, is try to understand the words of Jesus outside the cultural and linguistic context of the community in which Jesus lived. One of these words is the word Gehenna (wrongly translated to English as Hell in many translations). In Jewish traditions, Gehenna was a place where sinners go for 12 months. there they are either punished or purified, and after that, though their bodies vanish, their souls are then reunited with God in Ganna, the paradise of the book of Genesis. In the Targum (The ancient Aramaic paraphrased translation of the Old Testament), the term Gehenna is added to several
