Why does everyone believe in God

@Zonuss No.

@CorvusBlackthorne Yes we can. 🙂

@Zonuss

@CorvusBlackthorne please read my reply..in this forum's question

@CorvusBlackthorne You'll have a very long wait.

@CorvusBlackthorne The evidence is there. You just chose to ignore it. We already know why. Thank you. 🙂

@Zonuss Where is the evidence? You lot keep claiming you have evidence but not one of you has ever managed to show any of it. The fact is, there isn't any, you're just "lying for Jesus".

@NortiusMaximus No. The evidence is there. Artifacts from the [b]Bible[/b] being discovered daily. Information being hidden from the public. Buddy you don't know the half about this world. You're not even close. 🙂

@Zonuss that’s exactly right. It might not be strictly empirical, but the preponderance of historical, archaeological, spiritual, and scientific evidence supports the God of the Bible. It requires faith, but the lived experience of people of people with the Holy Spirit in their heart is undeniable.

@Zonuss [quote]The evidence is there. [/quote]
Let's see it then. Saying it exists is meaningless, you need to actually produce it.

@NortiusMaximus Not really. You can't see a lot of things that actually exist. Like certain species of [b]fish[/b] in the ocean. Like certain [b]planets[/b] in the solar system. Like undiscovered viruses or entities lurking around here every day. You're an old argument sir. Get with the times. 🙂

@Zonuss [quote]You can't see a lot of things that actually exist.[/quote]
But we can detect them. No one has ever managed to present any empirical evidence of the biblical god.

@NortiusMaximus
There is plenty of evidence.
Since we are separated from the Lord since the Fall, we don’t have normal interactions with God. However history, and the documentation of the Bible represents God’s actions in redeeming mankind. You still need faith, and He says so.
The preponderance of evidence overwhelmingly support the the existence, and intervention in this world, of the biblical God. Archaeology has proven again and again the truth of Bible as History. Even the accuracy of Bible translations over millennia is proof of God’s works. In history the Lord has raised (and lowered) nations for His purposes of reaching and redeeming mankind. Science has now proven close to 50 empirical constants which without the universe, never mind life, couldn’t exist. The Resurrection is among the most well documented eye witness events in history, and the actions of apostles who spent 50 days with Him afterwards (among others) and the history and life changing events for billions, is among the strongest evidence. Another example - there is no other basis for explaining the sheer volume medical miracles, where fatal conditions… disappear. The greatest evidence comes the Holy Spirit’s work in the hearts of believers. That proof is undeniable to those in whom he Holy Spirit works.
So if you want to be ignorant,… that’s on you (I’m not particularly evangelical), and you’ll pay the price. I’ve literally provided proof on SW and other sites. But I’m tired of some guy saying show me the proof… here… on SW. It never ceases to amaze me that atheists claim reason on their side, while ignoring evidence and believing things science has long debunked.
You want proof. Well prove that you have more than three working brain cells… don’t expect to find proof on SW. Do your own research. Libraries and bookstores are full of excellent books on Jesus Christ and Christianity. I normally read more advanced texts, but given time we can find some choices, if you need.
And don’t try this alone. Do it prayerfully… and preferably guided by an actual, Gospel believing church.
If you don’t do this. Then don’t complain when you don’t get it, when the future passes you by, and when others notice you don’t understand reason.

Evidence. The preponderance of evidence is all you need to believe in God.

@NortiusMaximus You cannot detect anything that has not been discovered yet.
That is a [b]lie.[/b] 🙂

@SW-User [quote]There is plenty of evidence.[/quote]
If this evidence exists, why can no one ever present any of it?

[quote]Even the accuracy of Bible translations over millennia is proof of God’s works.[/quote]
The bible is packed with inaccuracies an contradictions.

[quote] The Resurrection is among the most well documented eye witness events in history,[/quote]
There are no eye witness accounts. The earliest stories about Jesus were written decades after he was said to have lived.

[quote]Another example - there is no other basis for explaining the sheer volume medical miracles, where fatal conditions… disappear.[/quote]
Such as? When has an amputated limb ever grown back? Just because we don't understand the causality of a spontaneous recovery doesn't mean that some mythical being was involved.

[quote]So if you want to be ignorant,…[/quote]
Ah, the standard christian insults. The refuge of those with no real argument or evidence.

[quote] I’ve literally provided proof on SW and other sites.[/quote]
Where? Provide a liink to it. Saying you've done it is no the same as actuqally doing it.

[quote] It never ceases to amaze me that atheists claim reason on their side, while ignoring evidence and believing things science has long debunked.[/quote]
You're confused, that's what theists do.

[quote]Well prove that you have more than three working brain cells… [/quote]
More insults. That's all you christians seem to have to offer.

@NortiusMaximus wow, you’re wrong, or dishonest on almost every point you made.
1) I just told you what some of the evidence is, and even where to find it. Are you daft?
2). No, the Bible does not have inaccuracies and contradictions. Name one. That’s a false claim, often used, and debunked. I can dispute most claims, and I know scholars who can respond to all of them. You’ve proven nothing with this false claim.
3) Yes, by eyewitnesses and of the record of other eyewitnesses. You’re wrong again.
4) Medical miracles -thousands of them, many documented. As in fatal conditions disappearing. I personally know of at least one. Again, your counter is irrelevant and inaccurate.
5) ignorance- yes, the standard atheist insult. Deny the evidence exists, use debunked arguments, claim evidence isn’t there, and not try to review - because well, it’s pretty overwhelming.
6) Reason- what atheists claim even though they can’t support it, or counter the preponderance of evidence
7) childish claims, the refuge of the ignorant atheist, when they can no longer counter an argument, and refuse to face facts demonstrably provided

You’ve been debunked, and exposed. The typical atheist. Mind closed. Fingers in your ears. Denying the preponderance of evidence, afraid of what truth will do to your beliefs, and making false claims.

@Zonuss [quote]The evidence is there. You just chose to ignore it. We already know why. Thank you.[/quote]
You lot never provide any.

@SW-User If God was real, people like you wouldn't exist using his name to spread your vile hatred and ignorance

@CorvusBlackthorne Why ask. You will never be pleased. Your perception of the world is based on solid physical proof. There are things in the universe that have always existed and you've never seen it before. The world is much too complicated for a simpleton like you to comprehend.

@Zonuss wow… well put. Much more concise than I would have stated.

@SW-User [quote]historical, archaeological, spiritual, and scientific evidence supports the God of the Bible.[/quote]
If that were true, no faith would be needed.

@SW-User
[quote] I just told you what some of the evidence is, and even where to find it. Are you daft?[/quote]
No you didn't. Stop lying. I note you couldn't resist the insult.

[quote]No, the Bible does not have inaccuracies and contradictions. Name one.[/quote]
Acts 9:7 vs Acts 22:9
There are a few more of them here - https://www.atheists.org/activism/resources/biblical-contradictions/ There are plenty more but those should be enough to be going on with.

[quote]Yes, by eyewitnesses and of the record of other eyewitnesses. You’re wrong again.[/quote]
Thare are no contemporary, eye-witness acounts. YOU are wrong again. If you disagree, produce a verifiable, contemporary, eye-witness account. Quotes from the bible do not meet those criteria.

[quote]Medical miracles -thousands of them, many documented.[/quote]
Spontaneous remission is well documented but there is no evidence your god had anything to do with it. So, when has an amputated limb ever grown back? You haven't answered that yet.

[quote]ignorance- yes, the standard atheist insult. Deny the evidence exists, use debunked arguments, claim evidence isn’t there, and not try to review - because well, it’s pretty overwhelming.[/quote]
That's what christians do, as well as insult anyone who question their unsupported claims.

[quote]Reason- what atheists claim even though they can’t support it, or counter the preponderance of evidence[/quote]
LOL! What evidence? You're "Lying for Jesus" again.

[quote]childish claims, the refuge of the ignorant atheist, when they can no longer counter an argument, and refuse to face facts demonstrably provided[/quote]
Exactly what you christian evangelists do all the time.

[quote]You’ve been debunked, and exposed. The typical atheist. Mind closed. Fingers in your ears. Denying the preponderance of evidence, afraid of what truth will do to your beliefs, and making false claims.[/quote]
LOL! Right back at you. You’ve been debunked, and exposed. The typical christian. Mind closed. Fingers in your ears. Denying the preponderance of evidence, afraid of what truth will do to your beliefs, and making false claims.

@NortiusMaximus But time and discovery has proven otherwise.
