Evidence for god? Convince me! [CHALLENGE]

RE: Evidence for god? Convince me! [CHALLENGE]
It's dishonest to demand definite 100% proof, sine that is not what we rely on anywhere. The question must be:is it more likely than not that a god exists.

Also, science absolutely allows us to ask what if questions - what if the quarks were a bit heavier, what if the fine structure constant were 1/200, what if there were no dark energy. One can clearly say that many of those would not permit chemistry or even atoms, let alone working stars. It would just be a formless soup of photons and protons, if they even exist.

Many factors have to be correct in order for Stars to really work for example, including subtle resonances in nuclear scattering, so obviously somebody knew what they were doing when the laws of nature were chosen. The anthropic principle is obviously ndo defence because in order for it to explain anything, you need many univereses with different laws, and there's no proof for that either Big Grin
As for which God is the right one, since we are obviously the dominant and smartest species in the known universe, whoever made it is probably like us. That makes the judeo-christian god the perfect candidate, although some others are also raving lunatics, so it's hard to decide.

but how do you know he exists? you just claim him to be, but you dont prove it. have you seen him? as for the universe stuff, we dont know what the universe would be like if it was constructed in a different way, we would have to re learn how it works if we were to live in that so called "other universe", but how does that prove the existense of that god?

what people do is this
"oh i dont know how this could have happened, therefore im going to make up some guy to be in charge of it, and ill call hime God!"
and thats where Zeus and Posideon came in. same concept...
