Is God real?

Fair enough. But just in case you weren't aware, you have not been 'lost' to him. He knows right where you are. If you should ever decide that you would like to 'find' him, you know where to look. God Bless you.

Really!? hmm Ok so there is no way I believe there is some dude alive running around in heaven.

It was just a very good novel written by many people.

That "Novel" you are refering to was written by many people as you say, approximately 40. It was given to us in pieces during a period of 1600 years time. (1492BC-100AD) It contains 66 books, written by 40 different people from all over the world (The pages were penned in the wilderness of Sinai, cliffs of Arabia, hills and towns of Palestine, the courts of the temple, schools of the prophets, Persia, Rome, and even the Island of Patmos) at all different times and from many people of different statuses in life. (Kings, statesmen, herdsmen, Priests, intellectuals, tax gatherers, fishermen, doctors, and the unlearned) Even though it was compiled in that manner, it shows a progress of revelation and doctrine in it. When it was put together or compiled into one book and read together it makes up a miraculous guidebook for man to follow. The 2 halves of the Old and the New Testament making a complete whole book of perfect and divine sense.You cannot understand some of the books of the Old testament without books of the New Testament and vica versa. No other book is like it. The bible alone has the words of your creator within it. If you want to know Him, you should read it.
