Evidence and causes for doubt
(March 7, 2016 at 6:41 pm)Old Baby Wrote: I never really understood the argument that God must be supernatural or he's not God.

How many phenomena were once believed to be supernatural before they were properly understood?

When I believed, I thought that God was natural but beyond human comprehension. I've read that scientists believe there may be more than 10 dimensions, despite the fact that we humans can only function in three. I just assumed that God could function in every dimension, making him natural but too complex for us to understand.

To this day I have no problem imagining that an infinitely more complex being could exist who would be to us like we are to the single celled organism. I just don't find any compelling reason to believe that any particular world religion knows anything about him or that he could be known or that he is a "he".

I think it depends on how you are defining God.
