I hear this argument from athesists, but can you think of other things that exist, that you cannot reach out and touch something tangible, like hatred, prejudice, etc.

Dogs hear what we can't, Bats see what we can't, and Bee's see a flower much differently than you and I...

If I have no valid "proof" of something, and my senses cannot detect it, is this by default a valid argument that it must not exist?

Do you notice a big difference in the way you are treated depending on how you dress? (Example....if you go into a store in a nice dress or suit do they treat you differently that if you go in on your way home from the gym in workout clothes?)

If you are not christian, please don't post rude comments. Thanks!
Do you feel like being on here and answer questions about God and Heaven to people who want to know or are confused, is a way of witnessing and sharing your beliefs with them WITHOUT sounding like a bible beater who says they will go to hell if they don't believe like you do?
I was just wondering- because I feel like that.

What if some guy named Joe starts doing some fairly miraculous things. CPR on someone to bring them to life, takes a lot of water and turns it into wine.... opens a soup kitchen and turns their 1 bit of bread into an entire meal. Starts talking just like Jesus did and collecting followers and claiming to be the Messiah.

Would you quit your job and follow him? Here is a guy just like Jesus doing the same things he did, claiming to be Messiah. What indeed would you do...

I am looking for a companion to visit mainly churches and other institutions to share an interest in photgraphing stained-glass windows. These visits would take place mainly at weekends but could vary between day-trips or overnight stop-overs

There are too many kids on this site. ( a lot of teens asking explicit questions) How do I express my concern to Yahoo? Lets make a 18+ Yahoo answers so adults aren't answering these type questions. What about those SICK , MENTALLY CHALLENGED ON-LINE PREDATORS who prey on these kids. I dont think anyone should be censored but I do think kids/teens should be on a separate site. Do you agree?

Dr. Thomas Barnes, Emeritus Professor of Physics at the University of Texas at El Paso, has published the definitive work in this field. (4) Scientific observations since 1829 have shown that the earth’s magnetic field has been measurably decaying at an exponential rate, demonstrating its half-life to be approximately 1400 years. In practical application its strength 20,000 years ago would approximate that of a magnetic star. Under those conditions many of the atoms necessary for life processes could not form. These data demonstrate that earth’s entire history is young, within a few thousand years.

Atheists have more confidence in humans than Christians because Christians feel that they can't do it alone. Atheists believe we can do it alone which means Atheists have more confidence. Do you agree or disagree. If you disagree, Explain how can we not have more confidence in ourselves than Christians if Christians dont believe humans can make this world a better place without god. Atheists do. There's no way around it. You're trapped in a corner. Just face it. If you say you have faith. That means you're depending on god to help which means you are lacking confidence.

Christianity is based on both pagan and jewish beliefs. Does that mean that christians are half pagan half jewish?

Is it proper for a girl to wear shorts?
As most of you know I live in the South and my fiance's father recently told him that it aggrivated him that I wore shorts all the time. (Not to mention it's around 96 degrees). They own their own business and I'm up there a moderate amount of time, not all the time and not few and far between, but I've been around for 7 Years, it isn't new for me to wear shorts.
What do you think? Is he crazy or am I doing a no no?
