Great post, I fully agree. I don't like to call it "God," too many evil connotations on that word. I would rather say "Mother," but what I really should call it is "The Force."
The Force is everywhere, within us all, and in everything we have and know. It is hear to use at our digression, but the energy is both positive and negative, and one can use both to bend the laws of nature if one knows how. If everyone was in true touch with the Force, the world would be a better place.

There are a lot of ways to respond to this thread, but the best way is to simply state that proof wasn't really provided.
Who classified God as having has no beginning or end (i.e. God was never "born" and can never die, God being everywhere, God being all powerful, and God is all knowing?
Originally posted by arbitrarygeneraiistFurther, you shouldn't have to prove that God scientifically exists to anybody. Religious beliefs, and a belief in god, are just that... beliefs. A believer doesn't somehow need to justify their belief or prove that what they believe is true for somebody else.

Just felt the urge to post here to express my fondness for that video. It just illustrates everything so well. I've watched it on more than one occasion for the sole purpose of "re-inspiration" during my more frustrating periods as a math major (and just in general, too.. it's remarkably uplifting).
If any one of you here reading has decided to just scroll past it, I'd really have to insist taking the time to watch it. It has no words or concepts that are left vulnerable to (mis)interpretation, just pure truth

There's a difference between common sense (knowing there is NO God, there isn't, what you people believe is the ancients way of describing how things worked, that's all!) and perception ( Me seeing and knowing what the computer monitor im using to view this site is)
Going by what your saying I could just as easily say your perception is off and that im right and there's no way you can prove me wrong....

Hey for your first response the Bible doesn't count as proof, I could direct you to a Dr. Seuss' book about the Whos', doesn't make them real now does it? So without using religion and the bible as a source of proof, give us proof of God. Can't do it? hmm funny I can give you countless links,sources,research,interviews,etc about the universe and the scientific proof of how things work.
I for one will be grateful when the day that we as a society realize how silly religion is comes and we actually start advancing ourselves for the better.
Is EVERYTHING explainable via "Science?" No? Why Not?

Your first example makes no sense, if the chair is there than it is there..as for the rest of your post well I feel it applies to you more than me, your the one perceiving there to be a higher being, not me. I simply tell you there's nothing there and to stop worrying over silly matters, but you attack me giving me a example that applies directly to you. hm gee you people (religious people) make about as much sense as a one arm midget wearing a braves shirt at a nicks game.

Darkness is the result of lack of light....AGAIN
