How Can Christians Be Certain That God Exists? There’s Overwhelming Proof Of His Existence, That’s Why!
Comments(4) An agnostic is wanting to know why I can be so certain that God exists.
How can you be so certain that god exists? It’s no surprise that atheists who are on the other end of certainty would be so hostile towards you.
You preach the same certainty that they do. And to add on, there is no “overwhelming proof” of the existance of god. Your belief is simply the sum of a matter of many mundance coincidences (ie. “personal spiritual signs”) and a failure to explain the world in any other way.
Because hey, god seems like the next best thing. He explains everything in a neat little package, isn’t that convenient? But no, when things that religion used to explain like “spontaneous generation” was later explained through biological means, bible-afficianados simply got off that bandwagon and ignored that one altogether.
But all that aside, I am a proclaimed agnostic. I don’t see anything wrong with saying “I don’t know” because I feel uncomfortable associating myself with an institution like religion that has rules and doesn’t have any empirical evidence that could hold up in the court of law. At the least, the whole concept of “beyond reasonable doubt” certainly applies here.
Although on a somewhat abstract level, I think the movie 12 Angry Men mirrors the feud between atheists and deists. As well, with this site, Poe’s Law easily applies where it is simply stated that it is hard to tell parodies of fundamentalism from the real thing, since they both seem equally insane. Conversely, real fundamentalism can easily be mistaken for a parody of fundamentalism.
I am certain that God exists because I know no other way. I’d rather make a decision about where I want to spend eternity rather than just sit on the wall like an agnostic all of my life.
The world is overwhelming proof to me that God exists. How else did it get here? The Big Bang? Then where did that energy come from? So much of science falls on its ass when you apply just a little bit of common sense to it!
What’s wrong with certainties? Aren’t your friends the Atheists certain that there’s no life after death?
God is the only God to have explained how the world came to be in such an elegant way. That’s the ‘neat little package’ you describe.
You should read the Bible. It’ll educate you and give you the intelligence that you so desire!
I wish you well on your quest to find God, Mr or Miss Agnostic. You’ve a lot to learn in life, but messaging me was your first step on the long road to Salvation.
God bless you.
so why did you end up choosing christianity, what do you think vishnu will do when you get up there all ready to get yaweh’s autograph
the energy for the big bang came from a spontaneous collapse of a neutrino particle formed from the collision of an electron and a positron, i am sure bible belter that you are that you will not understand a word of that but i can assure you that i just ground that little argument to dust
science is common sense mixed with intelligence, religion is ignorance mixed with fear.
our agnostic friend does not dislike certainties per se, it is merely that he does not feel he has enough evidence to commit to one particular idea.
by the way agnostic person, what you are referring to is the ‘god of the gaps’ where we call what we don’t understand god, of course as we come to understand so the gaps shrink and god becomes lesser.
have YOU read the bible, it is absolutely hilarious how often it contradicts itself
trust me, i have read the bible. i just about died of laughter half way through the old testament. the story of noah is simply a slap in the face of logic and reasoning. so god created the rainbow after the flood to seal a covenant with noah that he will never destroy the world by flood again. so… your saying up until the flood light did not refract? not to mention the shear lunacy of the notion that an elderly man and his family gathered two of every animal or that noah and his family were the ONLY good people on the ENTIRE planet and that EVERYONE else deserved to die. even pregnant women? even new born babies? but wait! i thought abortion was bad? but its ok for god to kill them?
Jesus, I love you.
You make good arguments
.
yeah god exists, and according to Muslim terrorists he thinks that if you blow yourself up in retaliation against another peoples god that you’ll go to his heaven with many a virgins. you know i think id rather take that god over your god since his benefits seem that much better.
