How about the undeniable FACT that he gave up on us all, and stopped giving a fuck about us.
The fact that the world is in shambles and on the brink of complete collapse proves he stuck around for a while, now he just said, “FUCK IT.”

Man, sometimes I think about this.
When I read the Old Testament, I wonder if God realized his mistake. Realized his intervention only freaking made things worse. Sent his son to die, in the hopes we’d abide by his message and revelation of love and forgiveness. And then hightailed it to another reality, another universe. And now it’s just up to us to save ourselves.
If Jesus was the son of man, it’s been 2,000 years…
If he was coming back, like he claimed he would. I think it would have happened by now.-
>Sent his son to die, in the hopes we’d abide by his message and revelation of love and forgiveness
Are you insinuating that the all powerful and omniscient creator of the universe did not see it coming? How? While I do agree that love and forgiveness is the highest virtue, I still feel as though I should ask who are the ones you believe to be freaking this up.-
Since humans are made in God’s image what if God went through a similar growth process? The old testament God is rash, immature and often cruel. Almost like a little kid with infinite power. But by the time of the New Testament he matured, and sent his Son in hope to make humans undergo a similar maturing process.

It’s all because of symbolism in the text which foreshadows Jesus, read it from that angle and it all unlocks – those are stumbling blocks to make you try something else other than literal reading.

Everyone wants free will, till free will happens to them.

free will means you are not currently in imminent threat of going past the "point of no return" with your sinning
your standards for "free will" are not in line with your concept of Sin
you appear to have confused sense pleasure Sin with the outcome of being saved from Sin
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Āyatana
it’s karma-vipaka vs. 12 nidanas
if you have a karma disorder a.k.a. addiction then you do not have free will because you are sinning so much you are in imminent danger of going past the point of no return with your sinning
the threshold for free will is completely different from what you think it is -

Everyone already knows God is real. It’s why atheists almost always talk about God or Christianity or the Bible when they’re simply asked about their own beliefs.
Anyway, it’s their own choice. Read Romans 1.
No, you just rejected God, continuing to live in sin separates you from Him.
As for the world going to hell, that’s because people have turned away from God.

Has it ever occurred to you that /poo/ is wrong? I mean, I assume that’s what’s happening here because if it were simply a matter of the pandemic or whatever you wouldn’t be THIS distraught. There have been far worse pandemics and wars and hideous horrible things in the world than what we’re experiencing now, but you are distressed to the degree that you genuinely think God has given up now but was active back then. Surely there must be a reason for this, and given that all the people who talk this way on LULZ are also /poo/ scrotes, I assume that’s what has your knickers in a knot.-

So why do you enter these threads? Just to show everyone how ignorant and foolish you are? To convince yourself that you’re right and actually know what you’re talking about? It’s painfully obvious that you haven’t read and understood the Bible, but you’ve convinced yourself that it’s entirely wrong so why would you read it in the first place?
You’ve put yourself in an intellectual loop of ignorance and stupidity, and you compensate for it with arrogance and pride. I pity you.

Go on and tell us how you know it’s wrong though because some talmudic garden gnome told you so.

God purifies us in the furnace of affliction. You see time and time again where God will let his people go into captivity for turning their backs on him and doing that which displeases him.
Romans 1: 28And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 29Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 32Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

How there is countless examples of "the goldilocks theory" throughout Earth. One of the biggest I’d say would be an Eclipse, and how the size/space between the Moon and the Sun fit like a glove from the perspective on Earth.
Leading to three conclusions:
>We are the only life in the universe and all the goldilocks matchups were needed for that (atheist, and a rather weak and holed argument)
>We live in a simulation (transhumanist, also in that sense a "god" or demiurge it’s still implied)
>Divine Creation created the coincidences we see that govern our planet (and that doesn’t have to be strict like say othordox religions believe)-
https://i.imgur.com/1NE0J8l.gif
– does "life" include tardigrades and non-local electromagnetic phenomena
– is "simulation" a meta-physical paradigm or a scientific theory: it isn’t clear who is to judge whether or not there is a simulation, nor what style is to be used, nor whether the judgement is centralized or diffuse; tell us how do we individuate the judgement of simulation
– is there a hazard in allowing any prankster to set up "spooky coincidences" using material readily available to any graduate student in statistics

>We are the only life in the universe and all the goldilocks matchups were needed for that (atheist, and a rather weak and holed argument)
For the record I agree with option three, but I’m not really sure I’ve ever heard an atheist say that we are the only life in the universe as a statement of fact. Atheists are a lot less hostile toward the idea of alien life then people who are religiously conservative/orthodox. Alien life is not threatening to the atheist worldview. If aliens touched down tomorrow on top of the Empire State Building it would do nothing to contradict atheism, but it would do a hell of a lot of damage to the notion that God created Adam and Eve at the dawn of time and gave them dominion over the world. Genesis doesn’t say anything about God creating Klingons-
If their was life on other planets, they would probably look at our solar system setup as too impossibly perfect, especially Earth>Moon>Sun distance, Moon density to size, ect.
Then we would be challenged to explain why that is the case too. Life on other planets would create a lot more questions than the existence of god though. -
It doesn’t contradict god at all. He created all life. I don’t expect him to sit around bored for the rest of eternity. He has to keep himself entertained woke afamehow.

My favorite arguments are
>Anselm’s ontological argument (it’s not as scrotebrained as you think)
>Leibniz’s cosmological argument
But really, these arguments don’t give you a complete picture of God. They are just a starting point, especially useful for atheists or normies who don’t understand basic theology. Any "argument" from God can only give you a small glimpse of the truth. If you really want to learn more, read "The Experience of God" by David Bentley Hart and "De Doctia Ignorantia" by Nicholas of Cusa.-
A version of Cornelius Van Til’s transcendental argument for God’s existence as popularized and utilized by the late theologian and Christian apologist Dr. Greg Bahnsen
Effectively, the argument states that any belief system that omits the existence of God is illogical and self defeating because there is no basis for the existence of the laws of logic in a worldview without God. It challenges the debate opponent to offer up a single view of the universe without God and allows the debater making the case for God’s existence to poke holes in any and every possible worldview.
I’m also a fan of Anselm’s ontological argument for God. It’s a clever argument and filters out brainlets.

God is the one who came up with the myth of existence.
You can’t do demand generation shilling for the myth of existence by testing it out on a mythological character.
You have to test out the myth of existence on actual stuff in the real world.
The myth of existence is what you’re offering to us. It should be tested against reality, not meta-physics. -

In a supposedly infinite universe, if anything at all might exist, then it exists. Including versions of yourself bajillions light milleniums away from the observable universe. If the universe is infinite, then there is an exact copy of yourself out there somewhere, who is EXACTLY like yourself except for 1 single subatomic particle placement at any point in time.
IF that’s the case, then yeah God exist.

>What is the greatest, most convincing argument for God’s existence, in your opinion?
For me, it came from trying to imagine "the smallest thing." All sciences (biology, chemistry, etc) are higher-order descriptions of physics playing out on varying macro scales. We’re finding more and more precise ways to model how the universe operates woke af on our descriptions of physical laws, but as I see it there can only be one of two possibilities. Either there is no "smallest thing," the universe is entirely self-referential, and all things happen because something else happened, because something else happened, in an infinite loop that eats its own tail, or there is a "smallest thing," which possesses particular attributes arbitrarily. If there is a "smallest thing" or absolute basic building block of all material reality, its attributes cannot be the result of any material thing more fundamental than itself. To me, the fundamental, arbitrary attributes of this "smallest thing" are either God itself or, as I tend to believe because of my upbringing, representative of the kernel of all Created Things, made by a God which encompasses and permeates, but also extends beyond, Creation.

They’re called atoms lad

We havent found anything that can truly fit the meaning of the word "unable to be cut".
And what we call atoms we have already determined to be made of smaller things. -
https://i.imgur.com/wrXOOqR.gif
>They’re called atoms lad
The things we call atoms are objectively not the "smallest thing." Atoms as defined by science are absolutely made up of smaller things (quarks, which I addressed in my post). Likewise, this does not in any way address the content of that post. Imagining a fantasy world where atoms ARE the "smallest thing," you would have atoms of different types (elements) which had different traits arbitrarily. We know the traits of atoms are not arbitrary, because those traits are dependent on smaller things (protons, neutrons, electrons, and further down quarks, and further down other quantum strangeness), but if atoms WERE the smallest thing, the differences in elements would be arbitrary differences, and exist "just because."
What I’m saying is, at some level of precision, there are things in the universe which are the "smallest thing," and whose traits NECESSARILY have to be arbitrary, because they cannot be the result of complex interactions of smaller things. Those arbitrary traits are the choice God made. Again, unless all matter just loops back on itself so that the smaller things have traits woke af on interactions of the larger things which have traits woke af on interactions of the smaller things. In that case, the universe is perhaps less "created" by God and more "equivalent" to God.

Good post sis, interesting perspective.
To add unto what you have said, it has apparently been mathematically proved that the universe actually IS infinitely divisable, or as you said it:
>"there is no "smallest thing""
This has been proved via finite infinite series.So, this concludes, as you very nicely put it, that reality is in fact "Eating its own tail", it is an infinite loop, an oroboros.
This, for me, acts as a good proof of the fact that science and religion are far from mutually exclusive, and that in fact, they support eachother in the pursuit of truths. Just as the old christian scientists of Europe believed.
The more i think about the existence of something greater than us, the more sense it makes. The problem with atheism, is that from my perspective, it presumes sooo much. In your belief in that nothing greater than us exist, you actually end up implying that humanity itself is the greatest thing in existence most of the time. This arrogance, in my experience, permeates throughout all atheists and their opinions, atleast of the ones I have had the chance to speak candidly with.-
>This, for me, acts as a good proof of the fact that science and religion are far from mutually exclusive, and that in fact, they support eachother in the pursuit of truths.
Amen sis.
Atheists believe that any science proves the divine impossible, too many Theists believe that God makes science a lie.

Had mr heart stop for several minutes after a suicide attempt in which i drank a litre of anti freeze and chased it with liquor and pills. Due to organ failure and shock my heart stopped and breathing was strained especially since i was in writhing pain for the glycol tracer they needed for dialysis for my blood. I felt every single organ shut off like i could feel death creep over my body. Its like a really sharp cold that burns across your body tensing up before being released into nothing. As i was staring at the roof of the ambulance i wasnt thinking much except how much it hurt and that “holy fuck im dying”. When i finally left behind my eyes I sunk so freaking fast. It felt like i just was dropped into a bottomless pit. I wanted to jolt up but there was no up, or even me to react like i was there and not simultaneously. Then a gentle breeze hit my very inside like i got a chill where my heart should be. Then it felt like someone waking me or turning me around to see something but as it happened i woke up out of a coma flailing and trying rip out my breathing tube screaming. Oddly enough no permanent damage to anything. The doctors said they seen nothing like it and use my case to this day in teaching at the university hospital. I know its not really proof, but to me nothing has left me from the experience. Or being in the void and feeling as if i have been there before

How would you know?
>you don’t do what I say
Sadly, you aren’t God, so who cares.-
How do you know God? Is it something you read in a book? Or, let’s be real, something someone else read in a book and you absorbed over the years through cultural osmosis. How do you know the book is true? Why do you believe that God chose to convey his message in this preposterously stupid way instead of allowing us to just ask him? And what’s really funny is that that is something he said he’d do in the book, but for some reason Christians ignore this. The book says God comes to whomever seeks him and he does not tell lies. The book says only an evil parent would give their child rocks when they asked for fish. So if someone far outside of Israel looked to the Heavens and sought answers, why do you assume God lied to them? Isn’t it more likely that you’re the ones who bonked up the message, not him?
-

-
-
>but for some reason Christians ignore this
That’s because the Church is genuinely evil. Not all the members of it, mind you, but definitely the institution. There are so many passages in the Gospels that could be interpreted in different ways, but when one of those passages comes up, you can bet your soul that the Church will go with the least charitable and most self serving option. Take for instance Matthew 8:5-13
>“Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith. I say to you that many will come from the east and the west, and will take their places at the feast with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. But the subjects of the kingdom will be thrown outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
Jesus says this after he healed the servant of a Pagan Centurion. The centurion mentions that he is a man like Christ with servants like he has. This episode can be interpreted as Jesus saying that people of other faiths, provided they follow the same ethical rules that Christ teaches can be saved.Unsurprisingly, this is not how the church reads it. Their contention is that the power of Christ is so strong that people who believe in him can be saved even if they know virtually nothing about him. It’s not like Christ gave the dude a handbook which would instruct him on how to be Christian, so we kind of have to presume that he didn’t go home and become one. You can say faith not acts, and that’s fine I guess, but then why the fuck do you bother with the rest of the Bible? The whole thing could be made up of a single sentence. It could literally just read "A bunch of shit happened but what’s important is that you believe that Jesus saves" and it would have the exact same function. But if people believe that the only way to get to Heaven is through the Church and the Church alone, that gives them a particularly special place of prominence in the world, so that’s what they go with
-
It’s exactly the same as how they interpret the 2 great commands
>On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
>26 “What is written in the Law?” he replied. “How do you read it?”
>27 He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’[a]; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b]”
>28 “You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this and you will live.”
This story appears in one form or another in each synoptic gospel. If there is any teaching in the Bible we can confidently say Christ truly taught, it’s pretty much this. These are unambiguously the two rules one must follow to inherit salvation, straight from the mouth of Jesus Christ. Given that in Matthew he adds that these are the laws upon which all law and prophecy hinges, it’s safe to assume that if someone tells you to do something which causes you to disobey one or both rules, that person must necessarily be a false teacher.This can lead to one of two conclusions. The first being that if you do these to things faithfully then you will be saved, regardless of what religion you profess. If that is unclear, Jesus follows it up with the parable of the Good Samaritan, which is about how a person of a different faith who treats you with kindness is more a neighbor than people from your own faith who do not. It’s pretty freaking obvious, but this not how the Church sees it. They claim that loving God with your entire heart, spirit and mind means doing everything the Bible says unquestionably. But this is preposterous given that by that logic, the Samaritan referenced in the parable would be bound for Hell, and if you regard them as though you were the same person as Christ literally just told you to, that’s no different than you burning in Hell. And how do you love a God who’s presently burning you in Hell? Can’t be done.

Awareness *isn’t* matter: the *significant* difference between a corpse & a living-organism *isn’t* caused by neutrons, protons, or electrons, it is instead caused by entanglement/knowing and by probability-wave/intent/will that makes the biochemistry be more negentropic/living in the living, and does not do so in corpses.
Awareness exists in a spectrum, and we are high-enough to have self-determination, but the spectrum keeps going up, to infinity.
Our souls are CellsOfAllgod/ChildrenOfGod, it is they that are in the "image" of god, not our bodies.

"Everything is connected to everything else on almost every level & angle". This is what we mean by God at the most basic level. A grand unified, eternal connected structure that you, everyone else & all of existence is part of.
This is due to the entirety of the universe developing simultaneously, causing it all to be interconnected. Nothing can be taken individually and must be treated as a holistic whole.
This includes internal, interpersonal interconnectedness & also the kind we aren’t aware of yet & will never & cannot know due to limits of human understanding & logical systems (see shit like godel), making it "transcendental & unknowable"We simply call this structure God, in the same way you would label physical quantities with numbers, you label this eternal divine connection as God.
I don’t think personification is necessary, but i’m still mulling that 1 over-
>I don’t like the term religious or spiritual, so if anybody asks i’m athiest.
Just say you’re a theist-
I dislike the connotations of all of those terms

God is not really that subtle about it.
>Ezekiel 35.
>I will fill your mountains with the dead. Your hills, your valleys, and your streams will be filled with people slaughtered by the sword. I will make you desolate forever. Your cities will never be rebuilt. Then you will know that I am God. -
Picrel proves that Revelation 8:12 has been fulfilled. Once you see all of the information, there is nothing to dispute. And keep in mind, the mainstream media has not picked up this story yet.
-
I don’t have any "arguments" because I don’t have time to waste on atheist simpletons.
Most atheists/christians (two sides of the same coin) don’t even know how to pray properly. They literally think prayer is just getting on your knees and talking, like you’re roleplaying being on the phone with God.
-
That we are here to ponder His existence.
-
-
If there actually was a Big Bang, then who triggered it? What was the original cause? It had to be intention.
-
That’s the normal mode of causation – a positive causation of give-and-receive. But there is also negative causation, where Platonic truth causes something to occur in order to avoid contradiction.
-
This, and consciousness is derived from God. The platonic world is a fractal, every ideal refers to every other ideal in some way. A drawing of a circle is an imperfect representation of a perfect circle. But a perfect circle is an imperfect representation of every almost-circle.
-
God the Son is the platonic ideal that all humans are imperfect representations of. Hence being made in his image. God the Father is the mathematical/logical ideal, that caused existence by necessity.

I do not require evidence! God exists even without me being a hypocrite! Did not God create the devil himself? What power does he not have on him then?
-
Everything has a cause. There is no random object existing in this universe, everything containst information. If the universe were to always exist and not be created, then a speck of dust is just as godly as the sun, they just always existed just like that, in their own state, this doesn’t make sense because the singularity, the primal force can only be one, not literally everything.
-
>there is no effect without cause
yes yes bla bla bla we’ve heard this one
so what caused god?-
>So what caused god
Well we’re here, aren’t we? We didn’t come from nothing, we came from god, so all I know is this. Where did God come from? I don’t know, I think he always was-
>I think he always was
yeah, but you know how much of an unsatisfying answer that sounds right?
if god "just is" why can’t the universe "just be"?-
If the Universe just is, that means the Universe is God, but this Universe goes beyond what you think of as the Universe. At this point it’s all about words.
-
The universe needs a cause because it exists purely in a causal timeline. God doesn’t, as he is outside causal time (time itself). That’s what God just is means. Not that he was there for eternity before creating the world, for eternity is inside time, but he just was and therefore created.
The universe needs a beginning.
God doesn’t.

Really really sorry for cringechat, but I had a moment of clarity and had to capture it in the first second. I thought about the laws of the universe, and how well everything that exists is confined within them, this stuff HAS to be created. I truly belive my pic has the ultimate argument for God, well, at least the ultimate because no atheist can debunk it
-
Nothing exist perfectly, it’s just that the clump of particles that make us who we are are perfectly adapted to the environment and the universe around us. If we existed inside an active volcano as beings made out of molten lava, we’d still say "wow sis there surely must be a god because look how well the entire universe and existence fits us" despite the fact that an active volcano wouldn’t be suited for anything else but us
I agree with the sentiment though. Everything is daijoubu, even the bad stuff. And I do believe in God

Ok so basicality being, you are only priests in here and you are freaking scrotebrained! Go to pornhub, the category section and study the Young/Old category.

I don’t believe in a god but the power of one
When opposites come together they make a contradiction
If there is an opposite to everything logic is the opposite of contradictions
The definition of god is the one who can make contradictions that is the only way he could prove itself to be a god
Do contradictions exist? Well maybe something came from nothing and so much of contradictions have a role in a out look in life and art
Do contradictions exist?

I saw Jesus when I was very young. Must have just been a dream, I was about 3-4 yo, but it was vivid. I woke up to the light being on, and there he was standing next to the bed, I could see the light emitted from the form he was in. It filled the room like a bright, but soft all encompassing light & calming warmth. I was startled at first, until he steps closer and laid his hand on the top of my head. I saw him speaking but couldn’t hear, although I felt I understood and that I could go back to sleep, so I rolled over & laid back down to sleep. Never had another dream or visit from jc again.
Whether I woke up in the dream and going back to sleep was in the dream, or woke up and back to sleep irl, I have no clue. I remember it vividly in my minds eye, although imagery of the big guy IRL since then has clouded exactly what he looked like. The long hair, white robes and scars in the hands were all very clear though. Tallish. I told my parents the next morning and they were shocked, and eventually brought home a wall picture to see if it was similar to what I saw. Similar, but not quite. I still haven’t figured out what the message in the dream was.

The probability that reality, as we know it, being a simulation linearly increase with our ability to simulate reality. Pretty much if we can 100% simulate reality (which computational power is the main issue, quantum speed up will unlock this for us), then we are 100% living in a simulation. God is the architect of our simulation and interacts with us through it. He exists outside of space/time/strings/M-branes/etc… but set the rules and let it all play out. Angels are mods, demons are trolls, and we are the users that He loves
-
I find this take arrogant and egocentric, no different than elevating man to be God. Just because we currently build computers and computational models we assume our way of thinking with machines to be the highest level of intelligence, on par with God creating the universe, when mankind knows jack shit about the universe. Just because simulations are technically feasible doesn’t mean it can or has happened. It’s no different than Descarte’s Demonic simulation of reality, rebranded for the iPhone generation. Yes it could be true, there’s no way of knowing for sure. But it’s arrogant to assume our reality is a simulation being generated by a machine like the ones we can create, or that man can make a simulation that’s anything more than a pale shadow of our current reality. We can’t even make good MMOs without bugs and glitches and micro-transactions, and people think it’ll be possible for us to simulate a new reality worth living in?

The thought that something had to have somewhere along the line "made" us. How can consciousness arise from chemical reaction? How can we as lumps of meat think things beyond basic sustenance. Do the migratory birds worry about their upcoming journey as we would? Do they fear not finding a mate or not having enough twig to make a nest? Do they feel love as we do, the feeling of your heart skipping a beat upon the sight of their mate? Do they have friends and enemies they wish well or I’ll to? If given the right circumstances, could they? That what lifts us above the animal kingdom is that of feeling, that if the ability to contemplate, plan and advance.
That is my proof of God.-
what really got me into believing in god is how our human consciousness arise out of such a complex chemical structure. It is not like atoms intrinsically arranged themselves into such. Furthermore, how can a structure DNA arise from the elements itself? There has to be a higher force commanding all this.

I would say life being shitty is proof
only a self important narcissistic piece of shit would create something this awful
I would see god existing as the ultimate bonked situation
freaking looser would prolly think its okay to make everyone suffer for his amusement in the afterlife

nasa had a leak and it was confirmed. the back ground radiation for the big bang isnt broken plate shit. they garbled it and still lie in "documentaries" to this day but nasa confirmed it
the real background radiation resembles a mans face and 1 hand out to the side far away from the face about where you would expect a hand to be present if it was extended a little in front of the man and lowish near stumach
the other hand is not visible or they havent found it in the data

It’s really simple do your meditation correctly and you don’t need any any proofs and arguments or anything like that you would know instantly.
I still cant warp it around my head that people have to believe in God. Like for fuck sakes just go do your freaking meditations and connect to source energy you will be able to feel it.

Peoples in their utter scrotebraination believe that this reality is different then any dream they had while sleeping but it’s not. Only thing that is different here is that you are tied to your body until you die.
If you ever experienced or train with lucid dreaming did you ever felt that you are floating between two worlds ? It was your own consciousness trying to wake up, you where at the verge of this reality and your dream.
Now i will ask you this how do you think this reality works ? Hmmm ?
It’s quite the same you are not allowed to reach enough energy for disconnecting from this world because your internal processes like thinking and tons of different programs emotions are consuming this energy but once you stop doing this you will be able to lift into another dimension or more likely to see in another dimension you will be able to become wind or a water and even control them and why ? Because they are just part of the dream that you are living in once you will have enough energy everything that is lower then you have to obey the higher it’s a rule of this universe.Higher rule over lower and lower submit to higher.
If i really have to explain more of this shit then you have to be dumb to not realize enough and you should put your head from the ass and start thinking about stuff.

Sunday’s have always felt lazy to me. Supposedly, God rested on the seventh day, that being Sunday. Looking at it that way, it’s like that act alone sent this ripple through space and time that compels people to sit down on this specific day.

I like the Christian idea that there are 7 heavens of immortal chaos where Gods come to be only to be eatten by Yaldaboath once causing their destined Appocalypse. It makes me feel like if God really were out there somewhere, he was eaten by the Holy God Eater like the rest of them, unless he attained EIn Sof and just went thoughtless to prevent causing an apocalypse (which is pointless if everyone there is immortal)
-
Your entire perspective is woke af around your life. You don’t spend time searching for god, you’ll never see the patterns they leave behind. If you only search for a way to disprove, you’ll only find something to disprove.
The concept of God has been around for years, throughout thought and language. It’s why David’s talk with god was rough, as David couldn’t understand grander topics like the soul or remorse. The words and knowledge simply didn’t exist.
Lambs had to follow the herder and goats find their own way, their own understanding. People don’t find a soul because they have no knowledge on what separates the soul from the rest of the body. You don’t have knowledge of Gods existence because you don’t have the knowledge to identify gods existence.
-
Probably the fact that the Bible and God have been perverted by groups throughout history. In a weird reverse way, the actual Biblical texts advocate for systems that as far as I can tell totally contradict modern organised Christianity like Catholicism.
If the Bible was written for any self serving reasons it wouldn’t say half the things it does. I DO believe that organised religions (like Catholic Church) are morally wrong; God doesn’t care if you act a certain way through fear and force.
For the record I’m agnostic, so I’m totally willing to believe but don’t really see any more or less evidence to commit to Christianity specifically.

Atheists laugh at how ridiculous they see the idea of God because they never stop to think that they literally believe that the universe suddenly appeared from nothing with the parameters to sustain life.
Ask a staunch atheist "Why does anything exist? Why not nothing, forever?" and they will immediately launch into a prethought answer as if they’re debating you rather than actually stopping to contemplate the question as a human being.
-
Why do you think there has to be a reason for existence?
-
The "why" in my question doesn’t necessarily mean "For what purpose," it means "How likely is it that this is the case?" It’s a rhetorical question just meant to get someone thinking.
The purpose of the question isn’t to prove that God exists, because technically even if He does the question isn’t answered. It’s a response to how many atheists act or talk like science has explained pretty much all the great mysteries about life, rendering philosophy obsolete. It’s as if they don’t realize how trippy current views on early cosmology actually are.

The fractal nature of evolution.
Organism X radiates into 2 orders of life, each of which radiates or splits into two others, and on and on. It’s like a beginner’s "If, Then, Else" computer program: simple, efficient, and ever expanding. Most chemical reactions have a stopping point, where energy is used up, and the materials reach a state of equilibrium or inertia. Organic materials just don’t stop reacting. If you consider all the life forms on Earth as part of a colonial or macro-organism, then effectively the same recursive function, the same reaction, has been continuously running for umpteen million years, since the end of the Hadean Eon.
If anything could convince me of a higher power or designer, that does it.
Because an architect doesn’t build a tower on his own, he hands down a set of instructions and watches the building rise. A programmer doesn’t code every line himself, he finds shortcuts, reuses code, and lets routines fill gaps. A gardener doesn’t pull fully-grown plants up from the soil, he plants seeds, and then watches them grow.
Evolution doesn’t prove that God doesn’t exist. It doesn’t conflict with Theology at all, it only demonstrates that Hebrew sheep herders and literal cave-dwellers weren’t ready (4000 years ago) to know what we do now. If anything, it reinforces that our world was someone’s project. Look at the golden-ratio growth of a nautilus shell, and compare it to the growth of rings of petals in a rose.2+1=3; 3+2=5; 5+3=8; 8+5=13. Now compare that pattern to the arrangement of features in your own body.
