  • Cliffe Knechtle responds to a question about God's existence. He argues that even though the Atheist does not believe in the Existence of God, God still exists. The existence of God is irrespective of your individual Perception.

    If you have 10 numbered coins in your pocket, it's obviously extremely unlikely to pull them out 1 to 10, given enough attempts, it will happen.
    What is NEVER going to happen is that you pull out a dragon from a pocket with 10 coins in it.

      Alright with the same logic, if there is no coin in your pocket what is NEVER going to happen is for you to pull out a coin.

    “Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn’t go away.” Philip K. Dick
    Reality doesn't care about perception, reality is what it is.
    But that deosn't prove his point about god's existence and the burden of the proof is still in the hands of the believers.
    Even if we agree on the existence of a deist god, it doesn't prove the existence of a thiest god and nothing, I said, NOTHING, can be logically used to link those two gods except fallacies.

      I observe that both atheists and religious fanatics are not humble. They think their perceive is Real. I'm sure both make huge mistakes. God exist but no one could have monopol on truth, if God not make man wise With full man of Holy Spirit. You need to believe and read the Bible. You need to open your heart on someone who is much above us. In my life I sometimes was very upset on God, because I though if such ugly protestant fanatics want to prove that God exist and they spread so much hate and division among people I don't want to such God ever exist. And now I'm sure that God is pure Love, compassion and Good. I'm roman catholic. If you want you can join to one christian church, but be carefull, there is a lot of wicked people who want change the word of God to serve their desires. Anglicanism and lutheranism were such denominations. You can read history of Henry the viii and Martin luther, (not the luther King, who probably was a man of God).

    All the questions you have about life and the universe can also be directed at the concept of god as well. Where did god come from? There's no indication that magic is a thing yet that's the mechanism that "god" operates by. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and there's none for the existence of any gods.

      1. This does not explain that there is nothing instead of something. We know that time had a beginning and therefore evolution too. Question: What happened to start evolution?
      2. My next question is: How can evolution do something wrong? How do you know that God is not directing evolution and that God chooses what evolution should do?
      3. Let's assume that evolution can do things wrong. Question: Doesn't this mean that there is something beyond evolution that limits it?

      @@mattearl8213 1. I sleep fine at night not knowing what happened before this universe came into existence. It has no impact on how I choose to spend my time. When the first adaption spontaneously occurred, as things do in nature, that iteration had a slightly higher chance of survival and therefore become the norm until the next adaption.
      2. I assess there is as much evidence that Zeus is behind evolution than the christian god is behind it, I do leave space for this to be incorrect however I have not yet seen evidence that god has guided evolution.
      3. This question I am not sure I understand but evolution is not an entity it is a process therefore it cannot inherently do something wrong. Evolution has no skin in the game, it would occur without any guiding moral hand, if the adaption suits the environment and increases the chances of survival and reproduction then it will win out, if not that iteration will die off until the next adaption.

      Why would God fool around with evolution when He can create ? Man is finite , man has a beginning and end therefore his knowledge is limited. God is infinite knowledge, He has no beginning or ending, therefore man will never figure out God. But that’s okay because God doesn’t require you to know how He created universe, just have faith that He did.Now if you choose not to exercise faith in God , then that’s your little red wagon and you are going to have to pull it. God’s not going to pull it for you and neither will anyone else, you will have to pull it for yourself.

My tomorrow will be like yesterday... I'm going through life without answers to my most sought after questions.
