The DVD shows a scene in ancient middle east. A man saves a veiled adulteress from public stoning. The adulteress throws off her veils revealing a woman in a bikini holding a cue card that reads "Say the word, win the bird!". A helicopter lands and Groucho Marx is the pilot. He is giving the crowd/ camera the middle finger. The bikineed adulteress jumps in to the chopper and they fly off into the sunset. Carbon 14 dating affirms age of DVD. That would make me take a double take!

Actually, this is how ridiculous the God notion is.
I'm trying to find an example to prove myself wrong. and I came up with "If you are God, please stop all hunger and war and senseless killings immediately" And it all came true! And then I thought, nup, it's bloody Kevin fucking with the earth sim program again ... yeah, good one Kev... (I'm a cynical little prick, aren't I? .......but a practical one)
No God, No fear.

A god imbuing me with its might/divine powers and deeming me its emissary here on Earth would probably do it.
So even if there was a god, it's too big of a butthole to actually do anything good or useful.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

Morphs into a few different looks on camera, then causes all amputated limbs to re-grow instantly, all over the world. Heck, maybe it just heals everybody, everywhere. Then it goes through physical examinations and lots of interviews on camera. It explains where it comes from and whether any of the human religions come close to being right. Then it would likely turn into some sort of overlord that would probably need killing.

I'd believe in a god if it could animate Donald Trump's hair in the middle of a live interview. It would speak and tell the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
That would convince me. Maybe. RE: What godly miracle would it take?
