Why knocking is so important.

What did they say?

Who is they? The fairy queen?

She told me fairies are eternal, that they live outside time and space so they cannot be detected, they created this universe, and that when we die we all go up to the big fairy ring in the sky. Unless we're naughty and deny their existence, in which case we're sent to Captain Hook's ship to be tortured for eternity.

Seems legit to me.

I think your god must've been busy or something? Perhaps helping somebody find their car keys or score a goal, or maybe just watching some children starve...

Then maybe follow that for a while and see how it works out for you metering out the same level of scrutiny you have here. If you can bring yourself to test this 'deity' as you do with the God of the bible and she fails then check that one off the list and reapply yourself.

The analogies don't really work when you're talking about an omnipotent being. It requires virtually zero effort for an omnipotent being to come along and say hello to everyone individually. For a human being to say hello to 7 billiob people takes a lot of effort and time.

Theist Logic goes like this:

1. God exists
2. Not everyone seems to believe God exists.
3. Therefore those that don't believe are either doing something wrong, or lying. (It could be that God is doing something wrong, but they ignore this)

They never even consider that maybe a God might not exist.

If you remember God did this once before in the way of Christ, and the whole of humanity did not acknowledge Him. His own people did not recognize Him. Why? Because they themselves built a myth (much like you have) of who and what God was supposed to be.

So in order for God to be recognized God must appear before us as we perceive Him to be otherwise we would look past Him as the Jews did.. Now the question is, does God want us to have or retain those flawed views of Him?

According to the life of Christ no. All who saw God as God had to come to Him and approach Him as He deemed fit.
