I heard a pastor state that "everyone, at some point in their life, realizes that there is something bigger than themselves" as supporting evidence for God.
My initial thoughts were "duh." Everyday, since I can remember, everything around me is "bigger than myself." Just look at a tree or the sky. Even my apartment building in a sense. I think about all the people, time, effort, anf money that came together to build it and so far in my life the apartment exceeds anything I have personally done.
Are religious folk so unaware of anything outside of themselves that it takes this supposed revalation to convinve themselves of an higher order!?!
Look at nature, the stars, animals-the science that is not "behind things" but right in your face. A deeper contemplation is needed for theists I believe. What do you think?
