I know why, what with my superior mind reading abilities, and in no way related to a decade spent on these and other boards listening to this shit or my deep interest in religious beliefs from an anthropological standpoint. John..like every other contemporary christian, has been profoundly secularized. He knows his faith is supposed to be rational, and evidenceable, these are contemporary truthmakers...but he doesn't know -how- it is so, or can be made so. This is not entirely Johns fault, though he;s certainly no polished apologist. A good amount of it boils down to christianity working as intended. It isn't compatible with such metrics and was never intended to be. It does not acknowledge that they are, in fact, truth making properties in the first place. If a god does the impossible and there's no evidence for it, that doesn't make it false..that makes it miraculous.
