Quote:In my experience God is much more likely to communicate with people through strange circumstances which speak to them personally, as these are much easier to engineer.

Nothing can be 'easier' or 'harder' for God to engineer. According to the handbook, God is omnipotent. Such a being would require no more effort to speak to me in a gnat's whisper than he would to turn the Himalayas into bread pudding.

As to what evidence (as opposed to argument) would convince me, waking up one morning with my left eye re-grown and fully functional should do. I've had a lot (and I mean a LOT) of people tell me they've prayed for this to happen. So far, bupkiss.
