1. Is there a God or gods - if so, what are they like?

I am certain there is. You can't describe God using human characteristics. And I don't want to make any assumptions.

2. What is the nature of the universe - its origin and structure?

I personally beleive in some type of theistic evolution. I don't understand why God couldn't have used evolution as his paintbrush.

3. What is the essential nature of man?

Selfish.

4. What is cause of evil and suffering?

You can't point the finger at any one thing. You will have good times in life and you will have bad times.

5. What is the basis of morality and ethics?

Do unto others as you would want them to do unto you. One of the most basic principles of all major religions.

6. What happens to man at death?

No clue. I do feel it's a bit convienent to think that we have some sort of afterlife.

7. What is the meaning of History?

That question doesn't make sence. What is the purpose of history?? That is like asking what the meaning of a computer is.

I'm not sure where you heard the history comes from "his story". To my knowledge it comes from the Latin word historia. And another thing, according to Christianity, God created evil. So, blaming it on Adam and the apple is a bit naive.
