Well I hope you are not correct because your god is a complete dickhead. He loves killing babies and has a fetish for penis forskins.

Your opinions about the potential characteristics of a tacitly non-existent entity are unimportant, whether the deity does or does not exist. God is not, nor should he be, interested in your personal opinions on how he should conduct himself. If he exists, he is certainly better and more experienced at being God than you are. If he doesn't, then you are trying to tell me how a fictional character, whom I am the sole author of, should behave. In that case, I choose not to take your advice.

To the OP, give it up. No evidence would suffice to convince 90% of the AF members.

But not too terribly careful. God if you exist please demonstrate that to the world by anyone of the following:

1) Turn me into a pillar of salt. I'm sure the sudden appearance of a pillar of salt frozen in the act of typing would raise some eye brows.

2) Strike me down with lightning. Be sure to hit just me inside. That might do it.

You will note over next few days and weeks that I'm still here and typing. Wink

I have certain knowledge that there is invisible purple nothing in my basement. It does not exist in any dimension we can perceive. It does not affect the dimensions we can perceive in any testable or predictable way. Nothing it does cannot be explained by things that naturally occur which we can detect.

I know this invisible purple nothing exists because I've opened my mind and heart to it and I feel very much that knowledge of it's existence makes my life meaningful. And yes I'm really certain that though it is invisible, it is purple.

What evidence would the OP accept to prove it exists or doesn't exist?

No one is trying to prove to you that anything exists, nor is God's response or lack thereof to your request proof of anything beyond your own level of flippantness towards the topic.
