When you say evidence. what was written/told to you in the Bible and books. made you a believer?
I suppose it has to be that for everyone. be they a believer or non believer. apart from the spoken word such as in Sunday school.



I love pussy
cats. :)



You naughty man!
Breaking up the I love pussy cats ....on to 2 seperate lines!!:)

Or a plain old fashioned miracle.

The Bible suggests that a lot of people couldn't bring themselves to believe even though they did see miracles. I can't see why it would be any different today.

Define a miracle you would believe in?

To clarify the smallest kind of miracle, do you not attribute "life" the term miraculous and if not what?

Apart from the Bible possibly not being true. we're more advanced today than then. and would be able to make a quick decision as to whether the miracle being performed is sufficient enough as proof?

You have to see it as when you say to me The Bible suggests.. to me it's like you saying to me My Dad says..
doesn't mean it's true to me just because it is to you.

They don't have to prove anything to you or anyone else for that matter, their faith works for them, no one is trying to convert anyone here so if anything the onus is on 'you' to prove God doesn't exist imo

I honestly wouldn't define life as a miracle. is a seed growing into a tree a miracle?
I think a miracle would have to be some kind of really good magic that is just not possible to do. not cards though I hate card tricks.

Re: The existence of God
 
I wondered previously at Maggy and Russ comments concerning Atheists have it easy.

Now I see why but the reason as far as I can tell is because people of faith allow atheists to take the armchair approach. The Atheists here have a solid I don't believe you approach to whatever a person of faith offers. What do Atheists offer apart from I don't believe?

imo the thread title is

The existence of God---not the none existence of .... so i think you've got the proof thing the wrong way around ,and if something does not exist how can i produce evidence of its non existence such evidence would not exist.
