If somebody sent me a pipe bomb as a gift I'd be entirely less than appreciative. Pixies "gifted" us with a pipebomb. Except..you know, in a way that makes it look like they didn't, from a completely hidden location..according to you.
It wasn't hidden in the first place, Adam saw God face to face. Ever since we are forbidden to look at God for a number of reasons, one of which is the tendency to worship the image of God rather than be loyal with love.
Human beings have been given faith by God, and a conscience, which contains the law of God, or the law of life, or the law of love.
That law is apparent to all. For instance "Thou shalt not kill," applies to the fact of life, that it is fragile and cannot be fixed once broken.
People do know what is right, and they'll deny that, and if they stifle the conscience often enough, it will die, and they'll have nothing but the spirit of rebellion.

This guy named "Banned" disagrees, and maintains that god and goddisms are fundamentally hidden from our perch in nature.
Take it up with him. I think you're both crazy.

If science keeps going with those notions, it is only doing what was predicted over a 100 years ago, 1880's.
Science will be introduced to the ultimate way to make God of no consequence and obsolete.
This philosophy will open up the gates to discovering another aspect of matter, hitherto ignored by the vast majority.
People will fall for this, not just intellectually, but with every sense, because it will produce some mind blowing results.
Yeah, that "science thingy" sure disturbs the shit out of some theists.
That NDE thing sure disturbs atheists.

The reason that NDEs do not bother many atheists, is because they know so little about them.
