Everyone talks about it, but no one seems to be able to tell me what it is. Telling me that the human spirit (for which there is no proof of it's existence), is not a valuable argument for the existence of God (another entity with no proof of it's existence). Your argument is circular, and has so many holes, that I will from here on in call it the sieve.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04514017097014310270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328549848514989524.post-20162030205071716732010-08-24T22:01:17.343-04:002010-08-24T22:01:17.343-04:00Hello again Sarah, I just read through this postin...Hello again Sarah, I just read through this posting and I would like to discuss some of your viewpoints. I guess we will start with the first. God. Definitely life's greatest question. I understand you used to hold the Christian faith, rather, the belief in Jesus Christ. But to make it more simple, simply having the belief or faith that God exists is a question that should be asked by everyone. <br /><br />Sarah I am going to have to disagree with you. God does and has to exist and there is a lot of evidence that He does. This evidence is definitely not a "feeling". As we all know, feelings are real but they are not always accurate. <br /><br />I guess I will start with a rather basic argument that I like to use. The Bible says that we are made in His image. But how should we translate that. Obviously we have a body that can be used to describe you. Something that is physical and something that can be observed. We also have a mind, something that thinks, wills, and makes decisions. We also have a spirit. I am sure you have heard this once or twice in your lifetime but I think it is a basic reflection of the very characteristics of God. As far as what the Bible describes. But what is the spirit? Do you think it exists? What is the difference between a dead body and a live one? <br /><br />I personally believe the human spirit, or the difference between life and death, is evidence for something that is unobservable and does technically does not "exist" and yet.....it does. <br /><br />What are your thoughts? Atheists do not believe in God because He is unobservable, but would that also be applied to what distinctly defines the difference between your thoughts, memories, decisions, likes and dislikes.....and.......death.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01982226772638242157noreply@blogger.com
