It doesn't matter if that god is mythical, literal, or metaphorical. The prophecies were prophecies and recorded as well - if they came true or not. So from the start you operate upon a false premise and ignorance.This is not evidence. If everyone in the world believed in the FSM for thousands of years it still wouldn't mean there was any truth in it. Same for your God.
Quote:If I walk down a busy street and into a shopping mall this Xmas season and I hear some smart ass kid say "There is no Santa Clause!" after just having passed three on the street and looking at one in the shopping mall I would be inclined to correct him.And I would certainly have the right to correct you if you walked down the street shouting "There IS a GOD!" but I might just ignore you anyway, because you'd sound like an unshakeable faith-head, and I wouldn't want to stand around in the street arguing with you when you might never understand.
Quote:The first part of understanding something is to figure exactly what it is - not if it exists or not and you - like that smart ass kid - have missed the first step which makes your assumption void.Your God is a supernatural being. Also everything supernatural there is no evidence for, therefore your God almost certainly does not exist.
Its fine if you want to say that your God exists in the same way Santa Clause does. Thats fine. He almost certainly doesn't exist in reality he's just in your imagination.
