An alternative approach:
"Prove that your God is different from an imaginary friend." |

hmmm . . . there is no way to prove that God exists or is real. yes, there is a lot of evidence for Him. There is also a lot of evidence for evolution. it just depends on how you look at things and/or twist them, the same discoveries can be used for or against God/intelligent design. i think belief in God is an act of faith. it's impossible to see Him or prove Him. the same goes for evolution or atheism. it's faith cause you can't prove it. God's invisible, just like an imaginary friend. He defies logic, so you can't prove Him with logical arguments. one thing i do know, though, is that the Bible is too accurate to be made up by insane men. either it's the biggest conspiracy on the face of the planet or it's the 100% truth. personally, i find it hard to believe that the apostles and Jesus would have given their lives for something they were making up and knew was a hoax. that's not a fairtale. there is historical evidence for all that the bible records about them. what they did wasn't exactly making them rich and famous. i wouldn't die for nothing, and i don't think the millions of other marders would've, either.
also, how could so many people over as many years as it took to write the bible all say the same thing without even knowing each other? it would take a super natural force just to create the conspiracy, lol. invisible people can't write books, either. anyhow, all this talk isn't gonna make anyone believe anything. if you do believe in God, don't talk about it; do it. Christians who are all talk and like "prove God doesn't exist" drive me nutso. just be who you are and true to what you believe. if you don't believe in God, that's your business, not mine. don't get in my face and tell me what i believe is insane if i'm not in your face calling you insane. i'm not calling anyone insane. people are smart. just don't think it's your right to push your morality on me. |
