The problem is we don't have a God presenting evidence for everybody to examine, and the only way we can get anything that you call evidence is to assume God exists and try talking to him until you convince yourself that you got an answer.
Quote:Would wanting proof of the president of the united states, be assuming proof of the president of the US, if you wrote a letter addressed to him, asking for a response?
What if he invited you to do so?
I don't have to accept the existence of the President on faith, nor do I need to A/S/K for an indeterminate length of time until I receive 'evidence' that he exists.
Quote:Then one would ask for proof, or a way to prove qhiapwe. does your god have the means to 'proove' himself?
Would you believe anybody who insisted that he does?
Quote:Indeed I can, and have. How did I resolve it? I took up God's challenge outlined in Luke 11, and He provided the 'proof' I was looking for.
You read something you wanted to believe, and it became true for you! If only the real world was as convenient.
