Perhaps none of us know the truth

RE: Perhaps none of us know the truth
(March 8, 2018 at 5:28 pm)Lek Wrote: One of the reasons that I quit frequenting this forum is because I came to the conclusion that there is no objective scientific proof for the existence of God.  It's a waste of time to try to argue someone into believing that there is a God or anything beyond our natural existence.  How could a method that can only test natural existence prove the existence of a supernatural realm?  I came to the point where I had to consider both possibilities equally, but I found that I was unable to "not believe" in a supernatural existence.  It just made no sense to me.  It appears that the universe is infinite and we have no idea of all that exists.  We all have to make our own call no matter how may people are screaming in our ears.

That was actually well said, Lek.  Too bad you came to the wrong conclusion.  Some humans seem to have a crashing desire to over-complicate things.  Most likely from the formation of the planet until between 200-300,000 ybp there was not a single living creature on earth with the remotest chance of even considering a question with that depth.  Think of that.  For 330,000,000 years from the late Devonian until sometime probably in the late Paleolithic no being on earth gave a rat's ass about any god. 

Early man - like early wolves, cows, beavers, etc., worried about eating, sleeping, fucking and drinking.  Somehow, they managed to survive without the supernatural realm that you have conjured up to suit your own needs.
