Now, what if I said there is a mountain of evidence to support the idea of God?
1. Personal accounts of specifically answered prayer.
2. Divine protection in combat against all odds.
3. Accurate "prophecies" (Isreal becoming a nation again) that number in the hundreds.
4. Supernatural events that have happened to me and others (astral projection anyone?)
5. Bible Codes (subject to debate, but it does perk the interest)
6. Old Testament laws that deal with bacteria.
7. Old Testament accounts of accurate astronomy (Pleadies/Orion).
{1}How do you verify a personal account of answered prayer to eliminate bias and human error?
{2}You are in Baghdad.Remove your helmet,kevlar and weapon then see if you can get CNN to film your attempt to walk through open combat with only god providing divine protection against all odds. Do you suppose there is a slight chance of injury on your part?
{3}Why do you not see if you can bring forth some arguements concerning prophecy in the Criteria for Prophecy topic if you consider these to be accurate?
{4}Astral projection? Surely you jest! How about we test such a claim and see if you can bring anything to the table?
{5}Bible codes? How about you start a thread on this and see how long before it is shredded for the crap it is?
{6}This is interesting.Can you show where they are actually aware that the bacteria are a part of their understanding of hygeine?
{7} The Pleiades and Orion? There is this verse from Job
Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?
So please tell us how this amounts to accuracy in astronomy?
