The Religious Paradox

<p>

Evolution, heliocentricism, and the Big Bang have been “proven,” yet people still deny them. How would “There is a God, based on X scientific fact” be different to people who don’t want to believe it?</p>

<p>

Assuming they listened. Of course, there was the book of the Bible that got thrown out for being too risky where Jesus told someone that everyone would eventually get out of Hell and be reconciled with God. Who’s to say that’s not correct? Plus, people have murdered for their distorted ideas of what God wants.</p>

<p>I assume proving God exists means that it would be common knowledge for everyone that nobody can honestly deny it.</p>

<p>

Why? Everything else that’s proven is denied by someone or other.</p>

<p>You raise a good point.
Let’s just say that for the purposes of this topic of proving God, everyone believes it.
Otherwise proving he exists is irrelevant</p>

<p>Not quite irrelevant; if the case was compelling enough, I assume most people would believe it. Then again, most people already do believe in God, fat lot of good it does us. The likes of Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, and Sean Hannity preach a “Christian nation” yet ignore the words of Christ when he spoke of love and peace and turning the other cheek and not executing and not being rich.</p>
