Thanks for the reply, Stan. But, I think you're mistaking "belief" for "proof." A proof should be repeatable, not an anecdotal incident experienced by some and not by others. And, not to nitpick, but I didn't suggest the use of "circular logic" in anyone's belief system. Such circular logic does exist, but that wasn't the point of my earlier post.

All I was trying to point out is that religious beliefs are an onion-like system of BELIEFS, as opposed to universally provable facts. Whether or not Jesus was actually the son of God is the foundation for Christianity, and it is the fundamental BELIEF that all the other BELIEFS rest upon. And, it can't be proven or disproven, at least not in this world.
