Invisible world

RE: Invisible world
Quote:You don't believer what you don't see.


Rubbish.  I believe lots of things I've never seen.  For example, I've never seen my pituitary gland, the interior of the Moon, or Johannesburg, but I have good and sufficient reasons to believe these things exist.

 
Quote:But science proved that there are forces and even matter, that is invisible to us.


Invisible to unaided human senses, but - fortunately - human beings have proved clever enough to come up with devices to assist us.  Case in point, Leeuwenhoek's 'animalcules'. 


 
Quote:Some sounds cannot be heard.


Correct, but you make the same mistake here that you made just above.  Simply because a sound is outside the range of human hearing doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. 

Quote:So God might be looking at you in the face without you even knowing it.


Yes, indeed she might.  More on this below.

Quote:If invisible things exist, and they are usually invisible for quite good reasons like high frequencies, distance, etc. How is the idea of God strange?


Suppose I stand near a sleeping dog and blow a dog whistle.  The dog wakes, perks his ears and looks around.  Which is the better explanation for Fido's reaction?  A)  He can hear a frequency that I can't, or B) Faeries pinched his bum and woke him up?  The idea of God is strange because it isn't a matter of distance or frequencies, but one of explanatory power.  There are better explanations for well, everything, than Goddidit.

Quote:Prophets are the people who communicated with God. Maybe they saw what me and you never saw.

Is there any way you can think of  to determine whether a prophet's experience (and I don't deny they experienced something) was God and not simply an hallucination or a psychotic episode?  Also, if  you're going to equate the inaccessibility of God to natural phenomena like frequencies and distances, then anyone should be able to replicate the experience of a prophet.  I didn't invent the telescope, but I can certainly look through one and replicate viewing the rings of Saturn.
