If god is so intent on hiding from me that he appears to not exist, I am content to treat him as he desires. If he wants to have a chat, he knows where I am.
The nonsense about materialism and spiritualism would not stop god from tapping me on the shoulder and saying "hello." As I have already pointed out, if I need to believe in order to believe, then belief is useless. Making excuses for why god won't just show himself does little to convince me that he is real. Come up with something better than explanations for how limited god is, because those simply don't work. At best, they make him seem like a coward.
Tell me something Ton.
Would you plant a tree in the desert knowing very well that the chances to survive would be zero?
Why God would waste his time doing something that would NOT bear any fruit?
Sarkar said that the mind of an intellectual (and here he specially means atheists) is like a desert
therefore God can not be there.
Here you may say.......... WHAT'S WRONG WITH USING THE MIND?
Both body and mind can not achieve any progress.
Progress can only be achieved in the spiritual stratum so by filling own mind with something that
deliver no progress at all lead the mind to become a desert.
