Proof that God exists
RE: Proof that God exists
Searching where?
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.'

Through reflecting on what you come across and searching knowledge.

Where does using demonstrable evidence, and valid and sound logic come in, using your method?

If you reflect on what you come across, and you decide on a conclusion, yet there is insufficient demonstrable evidence and valid and sound logic to support your conclusion, do you change your mind about your conclusion?

Does you method have room to go where the evidence leads, instead of leading the evidence to fit your conclusion?

Where do you search to get the information you reflect 0n?

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

...........................................................?  It seems like you needed at least four, though I;m not sure that the extra word really made much of a difference.

Perhaps you could identify the consciousness preceding the instruction sequences in auxin transfer? It would be of immense benefit to me, and the world.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

"Consciousness Precedes Instruction Sequences."

Please elaborate, if you don't mind.

(Sigh) I guess Rion was a sock. That just sucks. They should at least let us play with them a bit before kicking them out Tongue
