quote:
There is plenty of evidence for GOD. The most obvious is when the Christian reviews his/her life and sees direction and purpose.
A person needs a purpose... they hear one that sounds nice... from that point on they act on that purpose.
How does this prove there's a god?
quote:
An atheist sees nothing because they are out of the loop.
I don't believe in God, and I see plenty. Go figure.
quote:
Destiny is a bitter pill for an atheist.
Why do you say that? I have no trouble accepting the possiblity of universe as a four-dimensional object, in which our future actions are already determined. Doesn't require belief in God.
Regardless... it's nice to hear your brother-in-law got his life in order. If he needed God to do so, I guess the idea works for him, and I certainly wouldn't begrudge him those means.
But you seem to be commiting the most basic of logical fallacies... mistaking causality. "If A implies B, and B is true, A must also be true." For instance, "If God is real and the bible is true, then humans will find succor by believing in the bible. There are humans who find succor by believing in the bible, so clearly God is real and the bible is true."
Nuh-uh. That's the same logic as saying, "If it rains today, it will be cold out. It's cold out, so it must be raining."
