I find it interesting that so far no one has come up with a scenario that would validate proof. And remember im not talking proof of existence but proof of divinity.
Most of the statements in this thread seem to be of the form that "god would know how to prove to me (even though I dont so there may not even be a way)" or like Equilax said "You should already have the evidence". But Equilax says my proof should match his standards which is untrue since my proof is based on faith not knowledge. I want to understand what would be a rational proof of God. Neither side knows any evidence to support their position, they just both believe they do ---- myself included. Admittedly the unbelievers cannot present a proof of God's inexistence.
So I will put forth a scenario:
What if this being moved the Sun from where it is to next to the Earth without affecting temperature, night/day cycle on Earth? Scientists could go out on a shuttle to see and measure the heat of this object without being harmed. This should be crazy enough that they would believe. But would people(prolly skeptical peers) on Earth accept their testimony or require further testing? What would constitute "enough" testing? Would this supernatural act be deemed supernatural eventually or as long as it stayed supernatural and didnt fit the laws of Science would it never be accepted as true?
