It would take a great deal to convince me that somehow all the evil i see in the world was working towards some common or greater good, if i could be convinced even then then i would have to change my mind about many things.
I can't really say i would want to be with him, it would take a great deal of convincing.
I already feel remorse when i believe i have wronged someone.
I think i would be greatly confused still, why oh why did an all powerful all loving god allow the nasty train wreck of a world we see now, it would be really hard to come to terms with. I think in all honestly i would rather there be no god, than a god who allows the world as it is.
Great post! to the forum. Please make an introduction thread
Hi there, thanks for the welcome the thread was just too tempting to not reply too so i jumped right in. I have introduced myself now

Why should Saul be worth a Damascus Road experience while everyone else has to work with nothing more than poorly-written mythology and the testimony of the least reliable people on the planet, many of whom have an insidious, self-serving agenda?
I agree, I find it very hard to believe that an all powerful god, who says he wants no man to perish but all to be saved would hide so well his very existence, surely not a very good way to go about things if you want people to worship you, however the question was hypothetical and in the scenario had indeed proved his existence.
