Once you stopped listening for God you stopped hearing Him. Why would that surprise anyone?

So the answer to my question of how you know anything about this god of yours is "mythology"? You're actually going to hide behind an argumentum ad someone-else-said-it?

And you wonder why nobody other than the already-convinced is taking what you feel you have to say seriously?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

they are invisible.

So is your mind. It cannot be grasped, and located in any scientific way, yet it exists.
So is your heart. also known as the bottomless pit, because no man can know it.
And your soul? it is invisible also.

so, you have an invisible heart, an invisible mind and an invisible soul. yet you are reading these words right now. How is that? magic? Did you know, you would not be "alive" without the spirit that is breathing life into you at this very moment. Air is invisible, and all around us.
Do you deny that all these things exist, simply because you can't "see" them?

What?? My heart is not invisible. Why would my heart be invisible?

Also, I don't believe in souls.
