Some even joke that the frickin flying spaghetti Monster, Long John Silver, and any created character within Role Playing Gaming could equally qualify.
It's not a joke.
Phat writes:
It is becoming my contention that if there is a real God amongst many pretenders, this God will find us.
Why? Why would he feel a need to "find us"? And how did he lose us in the first place?

We won't be able to find God.
Nor will we be able to find leprechauns or Loch Ness monsters or bigfeet or the Fountain of Youth or a cheep method of turning base metals into gold or....

Re: The financial apologists can be examined.

For starters, I cant see how all of the candidates should be examined as if the probabilities were absolutely equal among them.
You need to explain why they would not be equal. And don't just say you believe it.

He never left us. We left Him.
That's just your bullshit mantra. And it could apply to any god. THINK about it and say something that makes sense.
Phat writes:
If Monotheism turns out to be true, which I believe it is....
Telling us what you believe is a waste of time. THINK.
Phat writes:
I wouldn't be surprised if most of you imagine that aliens are more likely to find us than the Creator of all seen and unseen.
Of course. Much more likely.

And when you see the failures of human effort...
Don't forget that we have also seen the failures of EVERY god to solve the same problems.
And we humans don't claim to be infallible or omnipotent. Many of the gods do, yet they too have failed.

... you will ignorantly blame the Republicans.
Remember when you used to claim to be a moderate? And here you are again standing up for the Republicans.
