Conclusive proof of God

I offered my own thoughts on that a few pages back.

If you decide that god cannot be proven to exist and therefore the issue must be determined by faith (that is, belief regardless of proof) then the person who claims that god does not exist is indeed in the same boat as you are. He has used the very same method to come to the completely opposite conclusion. Doesn't that invalidate faith as a way of determining whether god does or does not exist?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

And from other responses here so have most others. So much so that you were not willing to put that aside to entertain a thought experiment. And that's fine. You are entitled to your opinion. It just proves to me how nearly impossible it would be for God to prove himself in this world even just among skeptics who should have no preconceived notion of what God should be. Maybe I wrong. Maybe believers would accept this God being quicker. In any case, I am unsubscribing from this thread. I have learnt what I needed to know.

Good post. Well stated point. Respect.

The first god creature who gave me all of his powers without retaining any for himself would be off to a good start.

The fact that God is unprovable is proof that he exists and is trolling us:
