-The most recent one which interested me though is, "What would it take for me to believe a god exists?" The only answer I have at the moment is "nothing". Even if I appeared to suddenly be directly experiencing god or some kind of higher power, I would come to the most likely conclusion that I am dreaming/hallucinating, particularly because of the stark contrast to every other experience I have had up to that point.
That is a revelation on a personal level. But let's say that this god has revealed himself in public, and everyone is aware of the presence of this higher power, including you. Would this be good enough to change your mind?
-I'd be interested to know other people's answer to this question.
Empirical evidence of a deity would most definitely change my mind to believe in this deity. If I will worship it is an entirely different question.
Also, welcome. Enjoy the forums!
