Proof Of God?

[Theland]

With so many scientists believeing in God, and proofs such as intelligent design established, and the valid criticisms of evolution not being successfully challenged, would you now at least consider the possibility of a universe created by a conscious mind, God?

So many great highly intelligent people never questioned the existence of God, so does that not give you pause for thought?

J.C. Ryle, Tozer, Spurgeon, Hudson Taylor, Isaac Newton, to name just a tiny few?
If you embrace atheism, ask yourself, do you know more than these people?
And what do you know?

[vulcan42]

To name just a few.
Charles spurgeon - clinically depressed.
Hudson Taylor- referred to by the Chinese as "The black devil".
J C Ryle- Intended to enter politics but after his fathers bank collapsed JCR had no money behind him so entered the church instead.
Sir Isaac Newton- Now considered a heretic.

You're in good company Theland.

[Theland]

Talbot - Wow! Who writes your scripts? Amazing! So,original! A real talent there son!

[Theland]

Vulcan - Where did you get that lot from? The book of atheism?

[douglas9401]

Come on now Theland, you're getting a bit of a superiority compex developing there.
Your ramblings and YouTube videos impress few, if any, so maybe just wind it in a bit.

[Arksided]

Try being an Angel, whilst being here on this little rock we share.

I try to respect religion as best I can... but are you a holy man Theland and your self appointed God will forgive you of your sins?

Nobody.
My answers are all my own too.

And I always answer a question ...try it sometime.

[Theland]

Talbot - Ask me one!

[-Talbot-]

I have

[Theland]

Again? (It's late)

// Sir Isaac Newton- Now considered a heretic. //

er I didnt think the Anglican Church had heretics - latitudinarian and all that. [seriously, not like Theland who makes up any old crip and peddles it as serious dogma]

One of his later ( newton's) works is on numerology - the width of the Temple in jerusalem is 30 cubits and this means .....
but in 1650-1700 many people were at it

to put it another way - the Bishop of Durham didnt believe in God and no one called him a heretic !

[Theland]

Oh this whole universe with its life on Earth, amazing science and maths is NOT proof of something, somebody bigger than us? Yeah right.

[Fairlight]

I was brought up to believe in God, then as I grew older I saw the light. I didn`t know anything before I was born and I believe I won`t know anything when I die and I`m happy with that :)

[Theland]

Durham? Jenkins I think? Another nut with no alternative but plenty of self aggrandisement.

[Theland]

Fair light. Do you have any explanations for our existence?
Just hurling mud is not good enough.

[Fairlight]

No I have no explanation and there is no way, in my opinion that we can search for one. I used to question, but now I don`t.

[-Talbot-]

Just to be clear Theland...give me your explanations for our existence

[Theland]

Nail it doesn't believe in the God he hates, and does not want to exist anyway, but is devoid of any reason for the existence of our universe, or for us and seems to spend an eternity in this pointless pursuit.

[Theland]

Talbot. I believe God created us and all there is.
That is the basis of it.
Volumes of reasons.
But thank you for a concise question.
Maybe engage in a civilised conversation?

[vetuste_ennemi]

Jenkins? I remember reading "Honest to God" by the bishop of Woolwich as a teenager.

[vetuste_ennemi]

...and somebody's mentioned pyramidology.

That rings a Belzoni.
