How man can prove God exists.

I am a theist but I like to discuss with atheists how and why they became atheists, and I welcome atheists to discuss with me how and why I am a theist - all like as we are friends.

Why do I come to an atheists' forum, because sooner than later I always get banned in theists' forums.

So, perhaps I will stay indefinitely in your forum - and I like that very much!

Hi newjaninev2, you say:
"If two people feel good about themselves when they are with the other person, then that mutuality of self-benefit will bring them together."

Honestly, I can't make out neither head nor tail what you are saying at all.

(a) If two people feel good about themselves
(b) when they are with the other person,
(c) then that mutuality of self-benefit will bring them together.

From (a) to (c) you don't mention love at all.

So, are you talking about love or not talking about love?

By the way, from me reading your language, polite and decent and respectful: it seems to me that you were sent by your loving parents to a most exclusive Christian school for girls.

That shool brought you up to be most polite and decent and respectful in your lanaguage.

Aha! You were a veteran Christian, but mysteriously converted yourself into an atheist, but your language gives you away.

Or you lell in love with an atheist and thus from love you joined him in his atheistic life, from head to toes.

Now, see what love can do to people, turn them from loving god to loving atheists, when they fall for atheists.

@yrger You’re the one characterising their feelings as love. I’m explaining to you why two people want to be with each other, spend time with each other, and not be apart from each other.

It’s not because of how they feel about the other person... it’s how they feel about themselves when they’re with the other person.

My grandparents were atheists, my parents were atheists. None of them found any compelling necessity to postulate gods, and refrained from lying to their children... and I have refrained from lying to my child.
