This is a circular argument.
"My god exists, therefore, everything that exists is created by my god".
Things that exist, including life and self awareness, are only evidence for life and self awareness, and other things, existing. The cause of those things, like a god, has to be demonstrated.
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.

What things, and do you claim miracle for anything you don't understand, what does it have to do to be classed as a miracle ?

How do you know a god is causing them to occur when..
1) You have no proof of a god
2) You cannot differentiate between something you don't understand, and something you don't understand which you call a miracle.

In what way ?
Quote:Everything else God put on this planet for us are just millions of examples of additional evidence.
I will just ask for say 10 examples out of the millions which point to a god only , how's that suits you ?
You can't just declare 'god' which is what you are doing, i asked you a question in an earlier post. How is god (how come god exists rather than does not exist) and what is it's reason for being ?
Maybe try answering questions instead of just hand waving away the perfectly reasonable answers you have been given, which at least we can test, use for predictions and observe. Saying you don't know is a perfectly reasonable answer by the way, but simply asserting a powerful being is not unless you have proof above and beyond what you are claiming this being did.

Let me try it this way.
I have a cardboard box that is 1 cubic meter = 1m x 1m x 1m
It is completely sealed up and the contents are unknown,
I am making the claim that an IMP is inside the box.
I believe an IMP exists inside the box. I believe this to be true.
What evidence do I have to hold such a belief ?
My answer "Just look at that tree. That tree is my evidence. That tree cannot exist if an IMP is not inside the box. I could not exist if an IMP is not inside the box. All of my thoughts and consciousness itself are evidence of an IMP inside the box."
Does my answer sound rational ? Or does it sound irrational ?
Insanity - Doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result

Scrutiny doesn't bother me. It's lemmings insisting I should become a lemming too. We don't have to agree, and I don't mind "friendly scrutiny" but when it goes to people insisting that I must agree with you or stating I have no intellect, or other nasty remarks, then it's made personal. That's not "science", and that's not "logic."

LOL you even bought into the Disney myth about lemmings. Did you not know that was faked?
And why are you then a "sheep" among the "flock"?

Not 'Extreme'. A flood as described in certain holy texts.
Not at work.
I said "extreme flooding" including over mountains and hills. That's my position on it. Why do you keep insisting that I say something you want me to say? I already answered your question 3-4 different ways now with the same answer. What do you think about said flooding during the "Bronze Age" as you stated?
SO.
I ask if you beliueve (Straight up. Nothing wird of 'Sideways' about it) in a global flood.
You answer with.... "Well... water covered mountains and hills..."
NOT defining if it covered all the mountains and all the hills across all of the world is an evasion M4X.
So... you are now seemingly uncomfortable answering the question of.
"Do you think there was a global flood, M4X?"
Why you seem unable to answer such a question with a 'Yes' or 'No'? I am puzzled.

I wasn't there. If I don't have a definitive answer, then why do I need to give one? Maybe, maybe not. I know it covered hills and mountains. So when you asked, that's what I told you.

So... you answer is that you aren't going to simply give a 'Yes' or 'No' reply to clarify you thoughts on the matter?
You don't know if there was a global flood?
Is there anything you are sure of? That you can give a definite 'Yes' or 'No' answer too?
Just trying to shorten the list of things to ask for clarification on, is all.
