Are miracles evidence of the existence of God?

[ignoramus]

Really? Did God tell you that?

How is knowing what God wants or does any different to knowing what God doesn't do or want?



sorry, logic nazi.

The existence of God is an open question (God may or may not exist).

The existence of diamond rain, black holes and pulsars are not open questions (the phenomena exist). Therefore, the following statements are equally valid:

1. In a universe where God exists, diamond rain, black holes and pulsars would exist.
2. In a universe where God does not exist, diamond rain, black holes and pulsars would exist. 

We know these statements to be valid because the physical phenomena exist irrespective of whether God exists. Therefore, physical phenomena cannot be used as evidence for the existence or non-existence of God.

Put THAT in your logic pipe and smoke it.

Can we agree at least that we are living in only one type of universe? ie: no partial god universe? ie: either there is a god or there isn't.
If we agree to that then we can't possibly know what the "other" universe could ever be like. yes?
Therefore we can't make positive claims for both possibilities, only one, but we don't know which one. We may never know which one.

This reminds me a bit of Hume's "grue" thought experiment.
