Evidence for God from Science

I've seen some things out of the ordinary, but nothing as big as I expected or something that would stick out and remove all shadow of doubt. I guess I have to keep on hoping.

I don't mean to be blunt, but that doesn't exactly help me at all.

It's been pinging away at me even more. Why wouldn't he give me a sign? Why wouldn't he give us more proof he's there? It's very cruel. I don't see how it could work out like that. Why wouldn't he make it more obvious? Why doesn't he show he's there like he did to the people in the Bible? I've seen ...

I haven't been feeling it. I know, but I want the absolute truth in the matter. Faith alone isn't making me feel any safer. This place is called, after all, Evidence for God from Science. I want evidence, reasoning, logic.

Rabbit trails? I'm sorry, but I don't understand. I'm guessing from context that you mean distractions from the main point, then I agree. Back on topic. This issue just worries me, I'm not meaning to insult you. My faith is just running out. I don't know if there's a God and an afterlife or not. It ...

I'm well aware. What's your stance on the issue? What ethics and morals do animals hold? Are they aware of the underlying laws and constants in the universe? I don't think they would a code of follow morals, since those often defy what's best for their species. I just don't see the evolutionary nece...

While I do believe I should weigh both sides, I really can't begin to compare other animals to human beings. They've advanced much faster. They are self aware. They are aware of the universe and its laws. Why?

Bingo. However, dogs do not have advanced cultures they would obtain from the wild. Humans have built up society, and domesticated those dogs. Therein lies the problem. Humans are the key. Left alone for the same amount of time, dogs have not accomplished what we have. Left alone for longer, no othe...

Does there have to be a waterfall for there to be water in a stream? Virtually all species of social animals have "rules of conduct" (ie morality) that control and moderate their interpersonal relations. Relatively few conflicts over food, hierarchy, mating, ... result in serious injury, ...

I don't mean to sound as confused and missing the point as the philosophers in that soccer match, but I really can't think of a good answer. I don't know if ultimately, people will atone the consequences for what they do. I don't know if it's a law of reality. However, I don't mean to dance around t...

I don't mean to be argumentative, but couldn't morals come from what we're taught? In areas where laws aren't enforced, a lot of people do what's morally wrong. The concepts do indeed exist, though. I'm pretty sure even those doing wrong could agree on Good and Evil. There's no real line blurred, bu...

Perhaps Kioku is a closet atheist who has come to pick fun I've been raised Lutheran and my grandfather was a Catholic. I'm most certainly not a closet atheist who came here to pick fun. In fact, this was the only place I felt safe enough to ask these questions. Especially since the topic of the si...

I do want to know the absolute truth. As for the evidence for Jesus Christ's life and resurrection, I'm not entirely sure of the evidence for it aside from the historical accounts of what happened. So, that's all I can really say I'm aware of. I will try to read what you suggested, though. I apologi...

I don't mean to be a heretic, but it's hard to answer. During trials, human testimony is usually the most fallible. I'm not saying the Bible is fallible, but I know Jesus existed. The historical evidence piles up a lot. Still, though, I worry. I know the actual testimonies would have no reason to li...

You really put it into good words, Jac. I'll try to read even more, but it feels like I've exhausted a lot of the material before me. I've been trying to have the logical reasons justify the belief, but it still leaves me scared with the simple possibility. The entire world, humanity, consciousness,...
