There is only 2 models for this as well.

1. God did it

2. Nothing did it, it just happened.

But If God did it, then that means God is real and so is what he says i.e the Bible, But the opposing people that say nothing did it pretty much leave it at that. How can you base your existence on nothing ?

I understand that this is a compelling argument to a lot of people of faith, although one could never use this argument in any other area of human discourse. You may feel good about believing it, but that is not evidence that it is true. How can I base my existence on nothing? Well, I DON"T base it on nothing, I base it on treating others the way I would like to be treated, I have a natural aversion to violence, like most people. I understand the damage lying can do to my personal relationships, and that it is an intrinsically good thing to help others when I can.

There is not one moral statement or action that can ONLY be made for a religious reason, Yet history is Full of examples of immoral and evil acts that could ONLY be made for religious reasons.

I no longer am gonna refer to Christian to be a religion. instead its a relationship. i don't like being in the same list as all them false religions/gods.

You can call it whatever you like, but christianity is a religion, just like the others you mentioned. That is what the word "religion" means.
