If you expand your definition of what God could be, it is a near certainty God exists. I doubt we can comprehend God though.

Hard to be proven but very easy to feel and experience

Neither was Jesus

Healthy place to be if you ask me

What about unicorns?

completely agree

at least something created the 3D / time realm call it whatever you like learn natural law

The more you’re convinced of His realness, the more organized you’ll get.

The end of the rabbit hole is spirituality, whatever that means for you the individual. Those that haven’t yet reached this destination have taken a wrong turn. https://m.primal.net/Kpcq.jpg

And there's the answer 🤝

god is a crutch for people who fail to acknowledge that we are no better or worse than any other biological life form. People need to feel special, to feel like they have purpose and creating a higher power solves this. I look at it like this, with all of the horrible things that happen to people,...

Only trust scripture. Even our pastor says that to us, if he says something that doesn't wash with scripture we are to call him out on it. Jesus called the Pharisees a pit of vipers for a reason.

The Tao Te Ching has interesting commentary on ritual, and thus in context can refer to organized religion. It places the Tao at the top (basically the source of everything), and then has a hierarchy of goodness, kindness, justice, and then ritual. Ritual is basically what's left after its drained ...

so you're 100% convinced that something you can't see or hear is real.. that's a little crazy, no?

"God" is the universe, and we're all a part of it... https://i.nostr.build/fwUYM8BGOvopg72B.jpg

I used to be seeking for the spiritual truth, most of my life. I read eastern spiritual books from Buddhism and Hinduism. I explored the new age religion and mysticism, “hidden” knowledge. I thought the Bible was altered by man and not the answer. Then a friend recommended the show The Chosen,...

Not really a fan of it either. Kinda ruins the whole personal relationship with God. His word does tell us though, to fully grow in maturity we need to be connected to a church. My note would encourage one to visit a number of churches. Many churches are soft and water down the gospel, so those ...

Find a good, small church. I have a friend that cut hair and has 4 kids. One was an infant at the time. She was driving them home from school and fell asleep/passed out. Wrecked into trees and it tore her left arm off out the window from a tree. She said she had a voice telling her to make a tourniq...

This thread is amazing! It didn't devolve into a battle of atheist vs. believers. People expressed different beliefs. Some different. One person expressed doubts. It's so civilized here.

prayer is the next obvious step then.

Most of us aren’t. However, if Jesus is who HE claims to be, then pursuing the truth of his word becomes paramount.

God made the Earth in six days and rested on the 7th. I have a hard time with this one. I think there is no doubt that there is bullshit mixed in with the teachings, but we were given a brain and meant to use it. Maybe this was done by design.
