In order for you to stop believing in god, god would have to appear to you and tell you that he doesn't exist... Not sure how that works out. Thinking

Now I understand the term Oxymoron.

Sounds like yet another way in which God can't fail to exist.

Translation;
I do not have the free will to not believe, even when shown the overwhelming lack of real evidence.

See, when you give answers like this you sound like a very clever troll with a dry sense of humor.

How is your health, Drich? I know that you were going to have some tests done but I don't remember when.

My health updates are being kept upto date in the "departed". Wink

Yes I do have a dry sense of humor, and I like to give 'minimalist' answers to push people to comment with the stereotypical crap atheists say.. Why? To force the 'thinkers' to think past the stereotypical stuff that supports what it is you believe and don't beleive.

I am not a troll in that what I do say has purpose and a greater understanding that points to God.

My answer explained:
"It would take God to tell me I have it wrong.."

God has told me through the bible and through the "wind and rain" that I have it right. Therefore it will take Him to tell me I have it wrong...

The atheist arguement precludes the idea that God does not exist therefore could not ever confirm one's faith. This stereotypical view of God is wrong. I can honestly tell you if God hadn't shown up in my life the way He has I would not be on this side of the arguement.

Now the comment "I would need to see I'd"
Both Joey smith and mo-hammy had 'god' tell them they orginally had it wrong, and to create new religions to get it right.

God told us to 'ask for ID' in what Paul said 'if anyone teaches a anyother gospel other than the one I have taught you, even if it was brought to you by an angel of the lord, this is a false teaching.'

Thing is God is not the only one who has Angels. Satan's Angels do not mine lying.

So while I like to have some fun from time to time it doesn't mean I stray from my core purpose here.

Drich,

Do some reading about confirmation bias.

He's not interested in making sense (newsflash!); he just wants attention.
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.'
