Why Would God Hide?

[snowtracks]

As soon as science can prove that anything beyond the physical realm exists, we'll start believing in the supernatural. Otherwise trees are just as much proof of Demeter as it is for any other deity. We didn't used to believe in germs, and despite them existing without us knowing it was still a rational thing to say microscopic organisms didn't exist. That's why we don't say there definitely isn't a god beyond the physical realm. It's just rational to disbelieve something that has no proof, whether it actually exists or not.

deader than a door nail to consciousness does not fit in the purely physical world of naturalism; whereas, in a theistic world, self-conscious awareness would be expected as experienced. Consciousness came from that which is conscious.

not hiding. can't establish proof thru the 5 senses. if it's truly not evident to someone, it's spiritual blindness. this would make sense since the atheists believe in the one dimension of physical.

Then how can you possibly believe that there's even a 'there' there, never mind make claim statements its nature?

And the "physical" is far more than one-dimensional. Even if it wasn't and had only one dimension, that's one dimension more than your alternative.

Besides which, you only have five senses? Don't you have proprioception? Nociception? Thermoception? Is it comfortable inside your jar?

must have been quite an event in the universe that first thought; and by the way, it's about time you revealed that closely guarded secret. you know, that one that started it all. you have teased us long enough, enough is enough.
