Is it because you have been taught to dismiss the proof God initially offers? The best you can assert is I do not have proof to satisify YOU that God does not exist. But, that in of itself is a trivial standard, because you and what you think you believe, isn't an absolute measure of anything. For example. You have no proof of my mother, yet She exists. (my existence is not 'proof of anything anymore) You also have no 'proof' of her background yet she has one. Further more neither she or I are willing to provide you the proof you need to verify her existence or her background. Therefore the very best you can say is YOU have no proof in which to believe. Or you simply ASSume (without proof) that she exists.
Tell me, if you have no evidence that god exists and science(the people who's jobs it is to study the natural world) say you are wrong, why do you believe in god?
Bottom line.. Just because you can't prove something does not mean 'proof' is not available. You are not the standard in which the universe must revolve.
Quote:If you have no reason to believe in god, why do you? The people who have come to terms with there being no proof for god, don't do it because they don't want a god to exist. Truth is you have an everlasting need to have an answer, and when science can't provide one you turn to "magic" which can pretty much explain anything you want it to. It's an irrational, non evidence based belief, and you should be the poster child for religious woo-woo because you have just openly told me "Science is wrong because it's wrong, god exists because we have no other way of explaining the universe. science is wrong because god is true and you cant understand god because god" just to sum it up.So is it your expectation that I follow this red herring, or should I wait for you to come back to the subject matter being discussed?
