Proving The Resurrection By the Minimal Facts Approach

[Randy Carson]

I was raised in a very Christian household.  But I do remember sitting in church during a sermon concerning Genesis and wondering how adults could believe any of it (it happened before kindergarten but how much before I don't know). It's a question that returned to my mind over and over. But no one tried to convince me.  They simply presented god as a given.  And they didn't talk of learning to believe in god, though they did pray to continue to believe in him (imagine a group of physicists praying to continue to believe in The Theory of Relativity despite the opposition of the world) which was not very reassuring.

So, as a child, you had questions about God that no one answered. And those seeds of doubt grew up and have borne fruit in the form of unbelieving children. Yep. Makes sense to me. You've never experienced mature faith as an adult.

I'm curious, though. Have you sought answers to those questions since becoming an adult? With an open mind? Or do you spend the majority of your free time posting here and reading authors who continue to confirm what you have already decided to be true?

You see, there are no successful rational arguments for god.
