Messin' With Atheists

[Haipule]

Does anyone?

That's what I usually say to anyone who complains that atheists do not understand God.  Who does?  How are we supposed to tell you if a god exists?  Maybe they all do.  Maybe none do.  If gods are things separate from the natural world, how are we supposed to access one?  So the only question is, are you tempted to think that imperceivable things exist.  Meh, I just ignore the possibility that sketchily defined things may exist until such time as they become obvious.  Yeah I know .. lake of fire .. yada, yada, yada.  Oooh spooky.

Who understands God? The only understanding of God that will ever mean anything to you is your own life experiences--please share! What you know was given you by the Living God regardless of whether you acknowledge God's interplay with your life, or not, and your life is valuable info to many because we never went there, you did! The most important thing then is your own life. Anyone can read Scripture yet, how many have lived it? Anyone can read, "We live by faith, not by sight" yet, how many have lived and experienced that? Life will always supersede Scripture which itself is life--God demands it! Or else it's all sola scriptura and the man behind the pulpit. [edited to add] and the Wicked Witch!
