I tried it as you put it down (since you put it down), and every problem faced is answered with "You simply didn't do it right" or "You must be ignoring god's answer". You can't tell me that's what's happening when you're not here, seeing and experiencing what I'm seeing and experiencing, which is nothing.The goal posts have not moved. Again by your own admission you never set out to reach them. When this was brought to your attention your story changed so you can claim mine did. Read Luke 11 again nothing I have said has changed from what was written 2000 yeas ago. The command is ask seek knock. Not ask. Ask seek. Or seek knock or ask knock.. We have been given only three things to do to meet God. Either you do them or you find a reason not to. That is between you and God.
I don't know how it worked for you, if it worked for you, and if it did, why it worked for you, but at the end of this and every previous attempt to somehow connect with whatever god is out there, nothing has happened. I would have thought that given that god is all powerful/knowing/present, it'd be remarkably easy to connect to it, but every time I fail, it's just dancing around and telling me that I must have done it wrong.
Well put it this way: Until god can come up with an actually reasonable means of discerning himself to me, I'm not going to keep looking only to find nothing, or to find a sign so inscrutable from the background of reality, that god must simply be taking the piss. I'm just not. Especially when there's about 50 other faiths all saying the exact same thing about their own individual gods as distinct from yours.
No offense meant by this, really, but I'm just tired of people pushing back the goalposts every time I try to get to their level.

Hell, there are 39,999 other versions of Christianity who say different things about the same God. Drich seems to take it for granted that his interpretation of his faith is more accurate then theirs, though in fairness to our crusader, most Christians feel exactly the same way about their interpretations.
