What evidence do you have that Jehova is any less fictional than the rest?
I'm only 19 and still seeking answers but so far I've got this.
1. Hope (that he's real)
2. It makes a LOT of sense that he would exist, meaning I find it plausible based on the Bible
3. Too many coincidences
4. The Big Bang DOESN'T make sense
5. There is a limitation to man's knowledge. We don't even have the cure for cancer, how can we be so sure that's not all we don't know about? If we don't even have definitive answers on religion vs the big bang and the Genesis and end of mankind, it means there's a that we're not aware of certain things.
What are your thoughts on this?
1. Hope does not imply True. To believe because of hope is self-delusion.
2. taking the Bible as the authority is part of the problem, not part of the solution.
3. Such as?
4. How deeply have you studied it? How much physics have you had? how much cosmology? Do you know anything about General Relativity? What makes you competent to say anything about this?
5. And you the same about the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Not knowing does not imply we should engae is self-delusion just to get by.
If anything, it means that we need to be more skeptical because the easiest person to fool is ourself.
