Why atheism always has a burden of proof

[Sword of Christ]

So if you can't physically detect god, how do you know he's there? How do you distinguish what you believe from a delusion?

It's a big question that's not easy to answer in brief detail, the detail to remember is that God is in a relationship with his creatures and the contact is and has to be both ways he can't force his presence onto you if you're not open to him. Christianity is a communal religion and the experience is amplified through a community of believers more than through isolated individuals. That's why you have instance the monastic tradition.


The best I can do recommend this book which goes into a great more depth than would be possible to do on here.
