Quote:If one was offered evidence that their dad was really dressing up as Santa, but still continued to believe in Santa literally, it's what Christians do.
Some do, not all. Like some atheists are irrational, but some are not.
Quote:As a child going to a Christian school, I was told from kindergarten and up, that a sky daddy existed. I believed such for years. Until I stopped being indoctrinated on a regular basis, I did not question the existence of the sky daddy. This is what happens with a lot of people.
What reason do you have not to believe in God?
Quote:Solja, the sky is 'blue', 'blue' is the name we humans have come up with to designate that color, that corresponds to that wavelenght. And other animals do not see it 'red' or 'ultraviolet', they can or can't see the wavelenght and can or cannot perceive differences between them (depends on the animal). But I doubt they conceptualize it in words.
If an animal was not able to see blue does that mean they see no atmosphere? or a different color?
Its ok to have doubt, just dont let that doubt become the answers.
You dont hate God, you hate the church game.
"God is not what you imagine or what you think you understand. If you understand you have failed." Saint Augustine
Your mind works very simply: you are either trying to find out what are God's laws in order to follow them; or you are trying to outsmart Him. -Martin H. Fischer
