The replies you gave above are almost exactly what i would have said to someone like me when I was a Christian (minus the hellfire and brimstone of your previous posts). I used to really believe that people 'had no understanding' and only by the spirit of god could anyone understand, and any ex-Christians had never been real Christians etc..etc... But really that is just a religions way of explaining why people realise the untruth of the ahem.. truth, and all cults do it also.
Bottom line though is that none of it is true, it is as made up as any other religion, cult, philosophy.. you name it. I know you are genuine in your belief, of that I had no doubt. But unless you can give a reason for it's truth other than you believe it to be so, then don't be surprised if others take it with a pinch of salt.
It's not my responsibility to prove God to anyone, I'm called to live a life that is holy (different and separate from the world). I'm to tell others why I believe what I do and it is for them to respond to God of their own free choice.
You believe none of what I believe is true yet you can't begin to prove what I believe is wrong. Just because other religions and cults do certain things and that you have an opinion that what I believe is wrong makes none of what you say true.
There have been preachers in the pulpit preaching for years and one day they actually hear what they are saying and realize they have never been saved. A relationship with God is much more than a mind thing, it's actually a spiritual awakening that results in a belief so deep that one will not deny it.

Everything you are saying I believed with a passion once.
But truth is, it's false.
