@AnonymousJSS it is.

@Dianna There's no logical/factual evidence to support his existence.

@Dianna Lol, trust me, it's incredibly easy to disprove God. All you need is logic. There's no way such being exists, honestly.

"Miracles". They're not miracles if they happen often, and the fact that so-called "miracles" occur after praying are just coincidences. No one can prove God made it happen.
😂

Oh yeah, I'll definitely be surprised. I'll probably go to hell though (if heaven and hell turn out to be real- though I highly doubt it), and that really calms me.

There are more events/circumstances that he does exist rather than he doesn't exist:

Which god though? People who pray to their various gods often appear to have their prayers answered. Witches' spells often appear to work. When I was younger, Santa Claus often brought me the presents I asked Him for. The Tooth Fairy always left me sixpence when I left a tooth under my pillow.

The bottom line is:
when we die, if there is no God/no afterlife - I won't know about it.
But if there is a God/afterlife, boy are you gonna know about it! ;)

So how are you going to explain yourself to Odin when you arrive at the doors to Valhalla? Or perhaps you'll find yourself experiencing the displeasure of Kahless the Unforgettable at the gates to Sto'Vo'Kor. You'll really be in trouble then! ;)

@Dianna It might not be any more real than Christian mythology either. Those of us who don't follow any god could be better off than those who have followed the wrong one.

I don't know of too many people who have received visitations from Odin, Zeus, Jupiter, etc.
But there have been many people who have received visitations from Jesus and His Mother, Mary
Oh wow, so let's just blindly believe in those people, amirite? Pretty sure you'd believe someone who claims to have seen the spaghetti monster, without even second though.
Btw, why just let a few people know of his existence?

If there is a God... I would feel horrible tbh. What kind of God puts his "children" on Earth and let's war, poverty, starvation, etc. kill them? That's exactly how it is. God is said to be omnipotent, meaning he has the power to stop and destroy all evil, well, where the hell is he?

@Emosaur
that evil doesn't exist as he could have created it, but didn't

On the contrary, according to his own words (if you believe the bible is "the word of god") in Isaiah 45:7, he admits to creating evil.

I don't think Christianity can be called a mythology.
Why not? How does it objectively differ from other mythologies or religions?

I don't know of too many people who have received visitations from Odin, Zeus, Jupiter, etc.
Really? I could find you a few who would be willing to testify that they had.

But there have been many people who have received visitations from Jesus and His Mother, Mary, throughout history.
Or so they claim. The could be lying or delusional, LSD and other hallucinogens can have that effect.

no matter what, God will always love them,
The Christian one will also sentence them to eternal torment if they don't love him back. I can do without that kind of "love" thank you. I'll take my chances with Odin, Kahless the Unforgettable or The Flying Spaghetti Monster.

Or they could be telling the truth, especially when crowds of people witnessed/experienced the same thing. People such as doctors, government officials, and atheists.
Can you provide links to verified accounts? These sort of stories abound about various gods but I'm not aware of any that have stood up to critical examination.
