What would you consider to be evidence for God?

Got a job?  God helped!
Found your keys?  God helped!
Lost weight?  That was god!
Won a football game?  you guessed it!  God did it.

Something bad happens though, and it's not god's fault.   Malaria?  Not god's fault.  Starvation?  Not god's fault.  Apparently he has time to help people find their keys, make dresses go on sale, and tell people which car to buy, but not enough time to prevent hunger.  He's much like his followers in that way.

If god wants all this credit, then he should expect to be tested before he gets ANY of the credit.

There was an interesting incident on the news a few years ago, there had been a mining accident and many men were trapped. reports came back to the families that the men were alive. The families went around praising god and thanking god being very demonstrative.
The reports were wrong.
All the men were dead.
Silence.
Even if the men had survived it would have been down to the efforts of brave rescue teams and not some impossible creature that no-one has ever seen.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
