China does not exist

[Eilonnwy]

This is not sufficient proof of Australia or China. The maps can be entirely doctored, total bullshit made up by people who want you to believe in China. Not only can you not prove that the calls are to people really from China, you can't prove that the person on the other end is even real or in the real place known as China.

I simply listed a small litany of reasons to accept the existence of Australia. These examples are testable and repeatable. You can poke holes in any single example, it's the sum of the evidence that makes the case.

What sort of influence do you want to see? For me, there are all kinds of examples of His influence.

Sure but they don't stand up to the rigors of the scientific method.
Here's one example: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/03/31/health/31pray.html

He is a transcendant being but that does not mean that He does not influence this world. You are simply looking for the wrong kind of influence. Everything is connected. Look at the bigger picture.

Sure. e_e This amounts to the same kind of argument where people say if you look for god and don't find him that you didn't look hard enough. Blame the person, not the deity who is supposed to be sooo powerful and benevolent that he'd want you to know about him so you can go to the big orgasm in the sky.

Obviously I disagree but I'm too busy to get into a full on discussion about it.
