No, they're the claim, or else every other religion has the same amount of evidence as yours, which I'm sure you don't think is true.
Quote:A universe that exists despite of the fact that natural things cannot create something out of nothing is evidence for a creator.
No, that's an argument from ignorance.
Quote: A universe that created itself, or is made of natural stuff that always existed is evidence of a supernatural existence.
No, that's an argument from ignorance.
Quote: Knowing that our universe is expanding shows that something exists beyond our natural world, and heaven and hell could be out there.
No, that's an argument from ignorance.
Quote: The bible testifies to the existence of a being who fits into these scenarios and prophesies about Jesus. Jesus is attested to by the writers of the new testament who lived during the lifetime of Jesus.
Given that you don't know who the new testament authors are, you can hardly say when they lived, now can you?
Quote:People I trust tell of how God has worked in their lives in supernatural ways.
And it's impossible that they're wrong, right?
Quote:I believe he's working in my life. This is all evidence for the truth of christianity and I choose to believe that evidence. Many people live and die only according to "hard" evidence, and I appreciate things proven that way myself. I even accept evolution which isn't totally proven, but I also like to keep my sights open to possibilities beyond that which science and math have the capacity to prove or disprove.
Then you believe for bad reasons. Sorry.
