Aside from those moronic 7 but actually 15 idiotic statements you spewed onto the thread, it boils down to this: I can't figure out why you think your imaginary friend exists, and why you actually bother to quote that hideous evil book of fairy tales you worship and jack off into. And I can't for the life of me imagine WHY you would think any other living being would need to be insulted by telling them about your harvey-gawd and its wholly babble.
So you now understand? Is this safe to assume because you are now fishing for another way to dismiss me?
To answer your next question:
Because God manifests Himself via the Holy Spirit into the lives of His followers. I know God exists because i have received the gift of the Holy Spirit which has richly blessed and changed my life. God has given me opportunity and the ability to take advantage of opportunity that I otherwise would never receive. Not to mention God has opened my eyes, ears and Heart, through my personal efforts in study and in my life experience in such a way as to be able to fully understand His nature in such away as to be able to break down concepts like 'the gospel according to Paul/Book of romans' to just 15 statements that most wanting to understand can at least now grasp. Again all apart from outside 'religious' teaching or influence.
Why do I share? because I have been given this 'gift' and am required to use it to the glory of God.
Suuuure you have. You're special. I have known people who prayed in churches for decades to feel one hint of the "holy spirit" and never felt anything. I have known preachers who claimed to have it who were druggies and rapists on the side. I have never seen anyone prove that this so-called "gift" was anything more than another way to say "I'm special" and if you agree to believe what I say, you will be too.
God doesn't exist. The Holy Spirit doesn't exist. Your hideous book is not proof. Your assertion that you're oh-so-special with your nose-in-the-air because of your delusions is not proof. Personal stories are not proof. A book of myths is not proof. When you can come up with something other than egotistical word-salad, some real proof, I'll pay attention. Otherwise, you're a waste of oxygen.
