PROOF OF THE EXISTENCE OF GOD.

I found this on the internet:

Christians claim to have proof of the Christian God based on various sources of evidence, such as:  

The worldview that Christianity teaches, which is consistent with reality and morality.

The Bible, which is believed to be God's Word and contains prophecies and historical accuracy.

The person and work of Jesus Christ, who confirmed His claims by His miracles, teachings, and resurrection.

The personal experience of Christians, who testify to the transformation and guidance of God in their lives.

Okay, for all I know, this 'statement of proof' may be just the opinion of one person. So, if you're a Christian who has better proof, please leave a comment telling us all about it.

Christians have had over 2,000 years to prove the existence of their 'one and only god who is made up of three entities'. Let's look at the statements of proof that I found online; one at a time.

1) "The worldview that Christianity teaches, which is consistent with reality and morality."

Rising up to Heaven, bringing people back to life and turning water into wine are not consistent with reality. Morality comes about naturally when people care for others. If you need a god to work out what is best for all, you're an imbecile. 

2) "The Bible, which is believed to be God's Word and contains prophecies and historical accuracy."

In the Bible quite a few weird things go on, like keeping slaves and being prepared to kill your own son to prove your loyalty to God. I've heard it said that lots of this book was written well after Jesus's time on our planet. Use of the word 'believed' does not lead this statement towards fact (proof).

3) "The person and work of Jesus Christ, who confirmed His claims by His miracles, teachings, and resurrection."

How does this statement prove anything?

4) "The personal experience of Christians, who testify to the transformation and guidance of God in their lives."

I'm sure that the people in India, and Muslims, could make the same claims about their god(s).

 Our fire alarms started making little noises at 5am this morning.

Ours are little white things and
much simpler than this one.

At first I thought it was a message from God, but they were only making little beeps so I decided that God wasn't involved. I eventually took all three of them off the walls. The oldest one had a message inside saying to replace it after ten years. It has been on our wall for a very long time. I've since found out that you should replace their batteries after about six months. The other two have been up for well over a year and I've never replaced their batteries. 

I'm pretty sure that not looking after these alarms properly is only a Purgatory offence, but I'll certainly try to do better in future.

Well, that's it from me. I've got fire alarms to sort out.

Ciao tutti.
