on god and infinity

People sometimes ask me if I believe in God. That is a tough question. I do know one thing--- a persons strong belief in something (whether true or imagined) is what really matters. Perception is the best map we have of that squishy concept called "reality." If you are a paranoiac then it matters not if people are really out to get you, in your reality they are out to get you. So if you believe in God then he exists for (all intents and purposes) Evolution is not proof there is no God, God is obviously a supra genius and evolution could have just been another of his "paintings" like sunrises and chickens. I do know, however, that the universal intelligence (aka God) is beyond the realm of the conceptual. It is an experiential thing that cannot be conceived--- You cannot tell someone how to run a bicycle. The question I battle with most is thinking about the idea of infinity there has always been something (the universe) and it will never end. Where did it come from? The big bang came from somewhere and the idea that there was always "something " and will always be something, infinitely gives me vertigo.
