Interesting!
When I said... "If someone who claimed to know god's existence to be true asked you "what evidence do you need from me to become convinced of god" - what questions would you ask ?" I assume the person claiming to know god's existence probably also would say "I can tell you this much before you even ask your first question. God is not visible as a single person or entity - because if this would be the case, then you would have seen him. So, don't expect to place god under a microscope or to put him/her/it in a test-rig for examination and prodding - please define your questions with that in mind"
Evidently god is not a person - I even think some religions describe god as "Alpha - Omega" meaning that god is everything (or in everything)? So, how can we best define a question that will give us the answer we are looking for in an attempt to find something that assembles evidence of god?
I think that Robvalue had some very valid points in his post http://atheistforums.org/thread-30760.html, but can we define specific questions that we need answers to?
