Like, Eric Trump cuts someone off in traffic, suddenly astrologers identify a new constellation, "The Dumbass," in the night sky. Eric not reachabld for comment...I'm sure that daily interactions and exhibitions of a God like nature would do the trick. The old Greek Gods turned people into tree or animals, for example, or made people's ears turn into donkey ears.
I brew excellent beer, and am a lifelong atheist.Some of the devout claim that craft beer is proof that a caring god does exist
"Divinity" is one of those words. We have doctors of divinity. Better we call these doctorates in religious studies. Divinity is belief in magic.So far, no sign from the central divinity of any religion.
I think 'divinity' adds an important quality to the magic, though. I mean, you can believe in the principles of contagiou, sympathetic magic, totems, fetishes, true names. Basic characteristics that can be manipulated by experts to achieve goals, just like physics, economics, attention spans."Divinity" is one of those words. We have doctors of divinity.

Well, exactly.I don't know what would count as proof for a God. However, I'm just a silly human. Surely an all power being with knowledge of everything could figure out something that would be adequate proof of her/him existence.
Since nobody knows who is God does that make him a Whose Who?Well, exactly.I don't know what would count as proof for a God. However, I'm just a silly human. Surely an all power being with knowledge of everything could figure out something that would be adequate proof of her/him existence.
What would count as proof of a god? God knows. And I respect his clear desire that I should be, and remain, an atheist.
Believers pretty much use the argument from anything. The fact that there's anything proves that there's a god. I don't get it but it must make sense to them. Everything and anything proves a god. Alright then!I don't know what would count as proof for a God. However, I'm just a silly human.

No, we've all seen it exactly once.Everyone knows universes can only come from somebody poofing them into reality. We've all seen it a million times.

Well, you have access to one universe, without a clear explanation as to its presence.No, we've all seen it exactly once.Everyone knows universes can only come from somebody poofing them into reality. We've all seen it a million times.
I haven't seen somebody "poofing" a universe even once. It's unlikely anyone has.
