Prove that he does!!


The Bible is NOT PROOF!!!!!  The Bible was written Dame Edna Everidge or Gary Glittter or some other crank.

Reincarnation has a lot more credibilty than religion.


where is ur proof that reincarnation happens?

the bible is supposed to be the word of God, so if u can proof the authenticity of the bible then u can prove God's existence.

however, the problem is that the authenticity of the bible cannot be verified due to it being written in a different language than when it was first revealed (as it was not revealed in English, rather Aramaic). this leads to translation errors, since no two languages are exactly alike. furthermore, the majority of the New Testament was written by Paul, after Jesus was crucified and there are a few chapters that were not in the original transcripts.

Reincarnation is religion isn't it? And how is it any more credible?

By proving the authenticity, do you mean proving that God wrote it, or that it is old? Just proving that it is old wouldn't prove the existence of God.

Listen all



dont get off topic- I said prove god exists WITHOUT using that kids fairytale the bible.   If he exists then there has to be some tangible evidence?


Blind faith is for idiots and drunks.

just because one may think there is soemthing to reincarnation doesnt mean it has to be bound to a religion.

Thats beside the point any way.



IF GOD exists PROVE IT. NO USING THE BIBLE.



GOD IS SUPPOSED TO EXIST INDEPENDENTLY OF THE BIBLE MMMMM?

Post by sprintcyclist on Apr 16th, 2007 at 10:17pm
imho, God is unproveable. Also impossible to disprove.

I agree, can't use the Bible to prove God, that is a fallacy.

Just how it is ?

Sprint,

he is not impossible to disprove, if something is real we can prove it. If not..........! :-?

Post by sprintcyclist on Apr 17th, 2007 at 9:49am
Not being able to prove something does not mean it does not exist.

Prove to me Pluto exists.  :)



Found this last night for you, says God has hidden things from the "intelligent", yet kids can see them.

"At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure. "
Luke 10:21

sprintcyclist, we all know Pluto exists since we can see it, what more proof do u need?

Title: Re: Bible is a crock-god doesnt exist.
Post by freediver on Apr 18th, 2007 at 9:45am
I can't see it. Even if you pointed me to a light in the sky I would have no idea whether it was pluto. The point is, in order to accept it, you have to take many things for granted, including a model of the universe. At least, I think that's the point. Sprint may have had something else in mind.

Title: proof
Post by sprintcyclist on Apr 18th, 2007 at 10:48am
Where is the proof skeptic ? Skeptic, I have not seen pluto. have you ?


yes, that was about my point freediver. In reply to oceans comment :

Her insinuation is if something is unproveable, it does not exist.
Yet noone has even attempted to prove to me that an entire planet exists !!!


Surely america would have been MUCH easier to prove than a planet so far away ?

seeing pluto is proof that it exists.

What about seeing a random light in the sky? Is that proof?

The difference between a random light in the sky and pluto is not what you see, but how you interpret it. It depends on your model of the universe. Thus it is not proof of pluto's existence.

Sprint, how would you prove that America exists?

I didn't say it wasn't evidence. Evidence is a good term for it.

You must have a pretty powerful telescope there, Skeptic. And not live in Australia.

Pluto wasnt located until 1930, and even then it was only due to tracking light across photographic plates using a massive telescope located at alpine level (2000m+).

Even with that massive telescope, you wouldnt be able to pick out Pluto from any other star in the night sky.

Seeing a light in the sky through your telescope doesn't prove that Pluto exists as a planet (which is what I presume is the point of this argument). It only proves that you can find a light in the sky which looks no different from another light, and that someone told you that light was Pluto, and that Pluto is a planet. You will be unable to determine any characteristics of Pluto, therefore you can only trust what someone else has told you is true. That is, you believe that light is planet Pluto because of scientific theory.

Now consider the God argument. There is no doubt that Jesus did exist, and he looked no different from any other man. Now suppose someone tells you that Jesus is the son of God (and therefore he is God, as part of the Holy Trinity). Does he become God, just because someone told you he was God? I mean, you can see him, but he looks just the same as every other man. If you choose to believe in the scriptures, then he must be God.

There is no proof that either Pluto is a planet, or Jesus was God. They are both just principles that certain people believe to be true. Faith.

Everyones raving on about stars and pluto- but nooen is telling me they can prove GOD exists!!!!!

Or is it because you cant prove he exist-so therefore he is NOT real?

I think that question has already been answered, and the pluto thing was part of the answer.

We are on topic. If you cannot prove Pluto exists in the physical realm, how can you prove God exists on a spiritual level?

How can humanity be proven to exist? You will say because it is real in the physical world. But when does each human start to exist? Is it at the time you were conceived? The time you were born? The time that you became aware of your existence?

These are important concepts, because prior to your being in the physical world, you did not exist. And you will not exist in 100 years time. So when you are not existing, where are you?

I see this is the reason that spirituality and God(s) become an important part of many people's lives, to neatly explain human existence.
