Sabra hubris.

Chickpeas are a more worthwhile topic than yet more comments on this
"Dawkins".

Dawkins own answer can be heard near the end of this clip

I find Dawkins response to be a rather good one. If I found out a life after death, and a being introduced himself to me as God, my response may be similar to his, but I wouldn’t assume any of the religions people recognize actually got it right. I wouldn’t assume he was either Yahweh, Zeus, Allah, Vinishu, or any other God mankind has worshipped over the years, I wouldn’t assume he desired to be worshipped, I wouldn’t assume he wanted to be known by mankind, I wouldn’t assume he is perfect, righteous, or fair, and I wouldn’t assume all the other loaded terms people associate with God. I would then seek to find out who he is, what (if anything) he wants, and my reaction to him will depend on who this God turns out to be.

Thought this thread would bring you back

What if He said to you I am the God of the bible...the Christian God?

Then like Dawkins; I would probably ask why he remained hidden. I would then attempt to find out which (if any) of the various denominations got it right, and instead of getting the information from flawed people who write about God, I’d get my information from God himself.

I think theres alot to be learnt from folly and that in itself makes it worthwhile.

Ken

Then he wouldn't be God Kenny.

Wouldn't that depend upon how you define God?

Ken

No Ken.
A god can depend on a definition but THE God must be certain things or else He is NOT God.

How would you know He was who he said he was. Are you saying you would just believe whatever He says about himself?
