Basically, Steven, you are not going to accept ANYTHING as proof that God exists. There is nothing that you can't and won't explain away.

You know it. I know it.

Even if a great hairy hand reached down out of the sky and plucked you into a city with golden streets and angels strumming on harps, brought you before a throne on which an ancient bearded figure sat who said "I am God. Do you believe now?" you would say "no. You're probably just a martian, or a hallucination, or something else. You're not God because I am convinced that God doesn't exist and I won't let anything change my mind."

Why keep playing this game? I guess it's a game to you, at least. I don't know what else it would be.

I don't care to waste any more time with you on this topic.

what is really interesting is that they are talking to all kind of different constructs. If everyone on Earth who believed, believed in exactly the same thing, it would be easier to believe there was something out there. But they don't. My goodness they really really don't.
