What proof do Religious people have for thier beliefs other than the Bible/Kuran, which were written by men?

Answer 1

That's why it's called (blind) faith, because there is absolutely no shred of scientific evidence.

Answer 2

Whereas, The Bible is a collection of writings by many different authors, the Quran is a dictation (or recitation). The speaker in the Quran - in the first person - is God Almighty (Allah) talking directly to man. In the Bible you have many men writing about God and you have in some places the word of God speaking to men and still in other places you have some men simply writing about history or personal exchanges of information to one another (ex: Epistle of John 3). The Bible in the English King James Version consists of 66 small books. About 18 of them begin by saying: This is the revelation God gave to so and so… The rest make no claim as to their origin. You have for example the beginning of the book of Jonah which begins by saying: The word of the Lord came to Jonah the son of Elmitaeh saying… quote and then it continues for two or three pages. The Quran claims throughout that it is the word of God. It names itself 70 times as the Quran. It talks about its own contents. It has self-reference. The Quran states in the first Sura after Fatiha that “This is the book, there is no doubt in it, it is a guidance for those who are conscious of God” and so on and so on… It begins that way and continues that way stressing that. And there is one very amazing statement in the Quran when you come to the fourth Sura 82nd Ayah which says to those who say Quran is something else than the word of God. It challenges them saying: “Have they not considered the Quran, if it came from someone other than God they will find in it many mistakes”. Some of you are students, would you dare to hand in a paper after you completed a research work or something at the bottom you put down there “You wont find mistakes in this”. Would you dare to challenge your professor that way?. Well the Quran does that. It is telling: If you really think you know where this came from then starts looking for mistakes because you wont find any. Another interesting thing the Quran does is that it quotes all its critics. There has never - in hundreds of years - ever been some suggestion as to where that book came from but that the Quran does not already mention that objection and reply to it. Many times you will find the Ayah saying something like: Do they say such and such and so, say to them such and such and so. In every case there is a reply. More than that the Quran claims that the evidence of its origin is in itself, and that if you look at this book you will be convinced.
There are mistakes in the Bible and the accusation comes back very quickly: Show me one. Well there are hundreds. If you want to be specific I can mention few. You have for example at 2nd Samuel 10:18 a description of a war fought by David saying that he killed 7000 men and that he also killed 40000 men on horsebacks. In 1st Chronicles 19 it mentions the same episode saying that he killed 70000 men and the 40000 men were not on horsebacks, they were on foot. The point be what is the difference between the pedestrian and not is very fundamental. How Did Judas Die?
Finally, The Quran iInvites - not demands. So that the Quran does not demand belief - the Quran invites belief, and here is the fundamental difference. It is not simply delivered as: Here is what you are to believe, but throughout the Quran the statements are always: Have you O man thought of such and such, have you considered so and so. It is always an invitation for you to look at the evidence; now what do you believe ?

Answer 3

I have no verbal or physical proof for my beliefs. No convincing arguments to change minds.

BUT...God blessed my life by opening my eyes to the reality of Jesus, and for that I will never be the same. I will testify that He is who He says He is as long as I have breath.

Answer 4

I don't need any other proof..just what was written as seen or told to men by God..And what I see out of my own eyes and feel in my own heart.

Answer 5

none. the whole concept of God obviously requires faith. human reasoning and 'proof' is way below Gods. if you trust Him have experience of what he can do in your life you don't need some science book to prove your beliefs,, anyway, most science which is so called 'fact' is proved wrong by new science,, our human minds and inventions just arent smart enough!

Answer 6

Besides their Faith.......... personal experiance, belief and personal proof. If you do not follow a Faith that is your opinion since you perhaps have not undergone a life changing experiance. Some folks have. I am nor christian or Catolic but have my own path you may find yours

Answer 7

Okay, you got us, we have no proof other than that. You just have to believe in whatever you want. Religion is personal for everyone and anyone can believe in whatever they want. Some people choose not to believe in any religion, in God, or Jesus, or any gods, or any heaven or hell, and that's fine. Just believe what you want and church does only go so far to preach belief. It is up to you.

Answer 8

You are aware that their are other "Religious" people besides Christians and Muslims right? Because you ask a broad question but the specify just two.

Answer 9

Archaeological facts, datelines, history, experiences, Gods presence, healings, a changed life, answered prayers, people's testimony and discovery channel.

Answer 10

Nature.

Answer 11

And full of historical and scientific statements that can be verified through experience and discovery. By the way, who told you how to question this way...Some fallable man? Darwin was just a man and evolution just that one dead white male's theory. Yet we seem to just fine because it placates our desire to remain a God unto ourselves.
