God is so quiet

Is he? And what exactly is he busily beavering away at doing? Must be something really important, right? After all, he could be doing something like solving world hunger, or curing disease, or regrowing amputees limbs or something useful. What is it that he finds to be more important and urgent than those things?

Your salvation, Jesus died so you could have it. What you speak about is the physical, God is interested in your eternal soul even when you are not. God has put us here to feed the hungry and discover ways to cure diseases and other useful things, when will you start to help these people.

When then announce vehemently that he exists they aren’t trying to convince you. They are trying to convince themselves.

 What about me, I know without doubt God exists and need no convincing in the matter and it is you I hope will come to the same realization. Seeking the only God who created all things is something all need to do.

If you had been born in Hyderabad to Hindu parents, they would have started teaching you about Brahma and the Vedas before you could speak. You would have attended Puja (adoration) in the temple on a regular basis and studied the Vedas. You would have felt the presence of Brahma (or Vishnu, or Shiva) as you worshiped - it's simply group hypnosis.  If you want to feel something desperately enough, you will feel it.  If you were born in Haiti, you might have attended a voodoo service.  The group think is so strong there that people actually drive themselves into trances and visions - not unlike the Pentecostal services I remember, where people would thrash on the floor and yell gibberish.

What is interesting is that despite all of this crowd delusion, there is not a single person on the planet who can actually provide proof that any deity exists.
