brvheart 1,752 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Prove it.Not that it matters anyway.do u c y?absolutely... which was my whole point in being ironic. You are saying... I MUST prove it to you... but you can't even prove to me that you have a friend named Bob. It's impossible for me to prove anything to you, only God can do that, if you ask him too.

It's impossible for me to prove anything to you, only God can do that, if you ask him too.What?Tghe burden of proof lies on the person who states a belief.You state that you believe in god. So the burden is on you.I don't know why you're asking me to prove that Jiom Bob exists.Jim Bob was obviously a fictional character used to make a point. It wouldn't matter whether or not he exists, because the point still stands that it's just as likely that god, if he exists, would send christians to hell and atheists to heaven as it is that he would send atheists to hel and chritsians to heven.That was my point, since you were going on about pascal's wager, etc.And, technically, I can never *prove* anything to you. I couldn't *prove* to you that, say, the laws og gravity are true. But, I could show you massive amounts of empirical evidence to support it.So while you can't prove that god exists, you do need to bring some kiknd of justification to the table. Just like how I would have to bring some justification to the table if I believed that Efraim the Retarded Rabbit created the universe 5 seconds ago. Link to post Share on other sites
