How to Authentically Experience God

We come back to this line about proof because like Kyuu said, it's the standard method of establishing the reality of something. If you want to approach your religion without using evidence, then you have to apply the same method of reasoning to everything else. The reason I don't go down that street is because if we take out evidence as the standard method for establishing a point, then what will use to believe in anything? We'd end up with everyone believing in anything and everything simply because they felt it was real.

If you can't provide proof of god and you don't think it's possible to provide proof of god, then you must provide a strong argument for why Christianity is any different from other unsubstantiated claims.
