Or better yet how isn't God standing before you NOT Proof of God?

Or are you Soo brainwashed your response to everything offered as proof of God is to simply deny it?

If God is not proof of God, then what is?

What an idiotic statement.  You've never offered proof of your god, or even real evidence.  You're so deep into the woo that you think others are brainwashed for not swallowing your tripe. Pathetic.

Hey, dummy

I'm asking you what "proof of God is" If not God Himself? After all if you want proof Donald Trump was really the president and I cold put you in a chair across from Him in the oval office, what better proof could their be? So again why would this not work for God? You want proof of God I know how to get you infront of him, but if this somehow is not enough for you now is your turn to school me. I'm asking you to describe your real/true evidence would look like.

Because if you don't know what real proof is, how can you know when it is being presented?

Seems to me little minds, are simply been trained to poo poo on everything despite what is offered. If this is not true then you should be able to offer an example or two of what 'real proof' you are looking for.

If not, know you are not the only little fly I've caught with this web. few of you can think past "that's not proof" algorithm (simply repeat that's not proof to anything offered) Big Grin

It usally just starts out Tit for tat.
Usally in the beginning noob do alot of name calling and or alot of ad hoc stuff, but as time and they get a feel of who I am they drop the names.

And other times it is out of frustration. Being called stupid 100 times aday wears on me especially when the offernder is the one who is wrong.

Because if he is standing there, then he is invisible. Seriously man, you saying that really discredits anything else you have to say.
See this is a point where I want to call you a name because you can not fathom the f-ing obvious, despite what Ive said over and over...

As in WHAT IF HE IS NOT INVISIBLE!!!

would that then be proof?

How many times have Ive gone on and on about how Biblical Christianity is different than any other religion in the world in that it puts the believer in one on one contact with God!

Quote:You have provided absolutely no proof at all. You have provided very questionable evidence but it isn't very compelling.
I'm not offering proof I'm offering God. It is God's job to offer proof/open your eyes. My job is to point you to the spot He tells us to stand.

Quote:God would be proof of God. We don't have any issues accepting something as proof of something.

I accept the fact that I have an iPhone because I am replying to you with it. This is a very basic concept. I don't know why do don't understand it.

How about this: My Accessibility to God is akin if not easier than my accessibility to God. As that is how I often times answer your posts.
So then if you are offered the same accessibility could you then see why proof of God could then be found in God?

Go ahead and call me a name. It just shows me that you don't take Jesus seriously.

What you say is not obvious. It sounds absurd actually.

You guys have a messed up idea of Jesus. Jesus was forever making fun of his disciples for not getting stupidly simple things because they like you were hard headed nuts who were forever trying to fit what Christ said in their own world view rather than change their world view to fit what Christ said.
He called them fools, foolish, call peter petra Which is pebble not actually peter/petros. pebble refered to his small intelect or understanding. He literally changed his name from simon to pebble. Why? because again lke many of you peter was too proud to consider Christ, so Christ took it upon himself to take simon down a few pegs. Not to mention what he said and did to the "holy men" of His day.

I don't point this out to justify what I do. i point this out to show you the contrast between your verion of who God is and what God/Jesus was described in the bible.

If I remember right you searched out your version of God and found little to nothing, and I did the same and found myself stood/groveling before him.

Maybe just maybe it is safe to say what you think God to be does not exist, and who I found to be there wearing the crown was God even if you would not recognise Him for it.

Again, you only ever looked for what you thought God to be, and didn't find it. You shunned me for calling people names while Christ Himself spent a great deal of time effort and energy calling people names. You thought it to be unchrist like, despite all the examples given of Christ doing this very thing...

Do you get it?
how much more is God than you know? When you looked for God what attributes did you look for? If you did not know what God truly looks like how will you know when you find Him?

If you think God is ABC and really He is XYZ then all you can really say is I looked for ABC and did not find God. That said How do you know that XYZ has not does not already spent time with you daily weekly or monthly?

The point is if you don't know what to look for How will you ever know it to be God? Put it another way.. When outside of the book of revelation Does God come with an entourage and all the fan fair people of Great renown like to surround themselves with?

Everyother world religion funnels worshipers to someone or preist, prophet, pope, Imam or some other religious offical more holy than you to act as an intermediary between yourself and God. Everyone with fail needs that religious hierarchy to interpret in essence to tell you what God wants.

Biblical Christianity is completely different it looks to separate man from the 'religious experience' and put us in direct contact with God. in that way we become the prophets we become the priests of our lives. Emanuel=God IN US.

Yes there are trainning wheel versions of Christianity where they follow a more traditional religious role but there are also 29K versions that point to the freedom I am talking about.

Yeah, I remember something Jesus said about "Blessed are the retards" or "The morons will inherit the earth" or something like that.

That's how shallow christianity is.  You can insult and degrade people and claim you were only being christ-like.

She's right you know. Many of it is in the Old Testament but as you can see... there's plenty of vileness in the new testament and from Jesus himself. And as you can see, Jesus said he came to fulfil the old testament and be brought not peace but a sword.

Jesus was a nasty bastard.

I believe most Americans don't know Article IV of the Constitution by heart. 'Many Americans do' is not a refutation of that.

Like if someone said Darth Vader was a great guy whose example we should all follow and I point out his role in the destruction of Alderon as an example of how he's not such a good role model, it means I am acknowledging Darth Vader is real. Good catch, Drich, I'd never have known speaking hypothetically is impossible if not for you.

Edited to add: I see Faith No More beat me to the punch with the exact same example. I should have gone with Voldemort.
