Are there any Christian proselytizers left in this subforum?

I just came to the conclusion that if God really exists and we really want to know him, then he will reveal himself to us. I came to the realization that I never argued even one person, that I know of, into changing their beliefs about God and nobody never argued me into disbelieving in God. The same goes with politics.  Nobody listens to anybody else in the political section of this forum unless they share the same views.  We can't help but reflect our beliefs and values as we carry out our daily lives, so my views become apparent to others as we interact, but I don't try to start conversations about spiritual beliefs with someone who has no interest.  

As far as the future of any religion goes, if God is in it he will sustain it, if he's not then it will eventually fail.  There are ebbs and flows throughout history, but Christianity will die or flourish based on its own merits.  All this arguing and mocking won't matter.  As the writer of Ecclesiastes would put it, I kinda came to the feeling that this forum is nothing but "a chasing after the wind".  This is nothing personal towards anyone here, but rather just a general statement of my feelings.

I do want to know god. I’ve offered numerous times for him to come have a dialogue with me, anytime he wants. I’d be very interested in doing this. Nothing so far from him.

I actually misread what you’d written to begin with, and I thought you’d made a breakthrough. I thought you said that if god wanted us to know him, he would reveal himself to us. I was going to applaud this. He holds all the power here. Our desires can’t force him into action, I assume.

What you’re really describing is someone achieving a state of mind where they already believe god is real and is interacting with the world; then they will see evidence of it. Of course they will. They will interpret things to fit that conclusion. They will take any unusual/unexplainable occurrences and insert god as an explanation in lieu of any others being available. They will interpret emotions as being some sort of message from god. Maybe they will even convince themselves that they are seeing things that aren’t there.
