Miracles and Anti-supernaturalism

[Esquilax]

I think God doesn't give us so much evidence that we would be forced to believe in Him.

Well, happily, in the real world there is no amount of evidence that forces anyone to believe anything!

Seriously, does anyone who makes this argument actually live in the same world the rest of us do? We live on a world we know to be roughly spherical, we've been into space to see it, and still we have people who believe it's flat. We sent back images from our guys on the fucking moon, and still people believe it was faked. Go down the list, every last thing in human history has had some stupid ass group denying it: creationists, 9/11 truthers, heliocentrists, anti-vaccine advocates, doomsday preppers, rapture believers, conspiracy theorists, and people who think Jersey Shore is entertainment.

If there is one thing that the world should have taught us all, it's that there is no level of evidence that can ever force all of us to accept reality.

I think He wants that to be a free will choice based on trust and humility.

What's humble about thinking that the universe was constructed solely with you in mind? What's trustworthy about a god that burns you forever for not believing in him?

There is enough evidence to believe if we choose to accept it. The paradox is that I have to believe in order to understand, not the other way around.

So, I have to believe in this concept I have no evidence for before I'll get the evidence? And you're actually broaching this as an argument?

Okay...

It has to start with love, not absolute, total knowledge. I have to know in whom I trust, which is why I choose to be Catholic. It is the original Christianity, not a spin off based on some 16th century or later guy's theory.

Your christianity is just a spin off of Judaism, and don't you forget it.
