NDE's as an example, I know of occasions where God Himself has spoken to people on deaths door, giving them salvation, even letting them return with a message. However there are tons of atheists out there who reason it away with their logic. I also have seen many minor, and some larger miracles in my life, but when I tell them to people often they call me a lier. It is not that I am lying. God is willing to show Himself to us, but we must be prepared to listen. There are always two arguments the devils, and God's, our destiny rests in which one we follow, and choose.
It's funny how all of these people with NDE's that spoke to god and see miracles can't agree on who god actually is or what "he" wants. He's supposed to be the arbiter of objective truth, but the many different versions of this deity that have been dreamed up prove that interpreting him is entirely subjective. Believers love to preach to atheists about the undeniable nature of god, but they can't even agree among themselves what that nature actually is. If god is so obvious as you guys claim, why all of the disagreement?
You guys are putting the cart before the horse and should first be trying to agree on what this god is. Get back to us when you all have a single, cohesive narrative. All you have now is a jumbled mess of religions and schisms that can't agree, which is precisely what one would expect if god only existed in the minds of the believers.
Oh, and I won't call you a liar. You could be insane or just not very bright.
