they sure can't; all belief is based on assumptions and as such should be kept to yourself. Anyone propagating unsubstantiated beliefs should be ignored.

I think many humans have had experiences that lead them to the conclusion that there is a God. I don't think anyone should preach. They should share their knowledge and experiences with an open mind. Any holy text can be read by an individual and they can get what feels right for them out of it. Not everyone will feel the same about what is written and they shouldn't since each person is so unique.

I don't think humans can KNOW if there's a God. They can believe in God, but I think preaching that there is a God is going too far. Preaching to people about someone you've never even seen sounds a bit insane to me.
I am a Priestess, but I only teach those who come to me and prove that they want to learn. And I don't preach existance, but rather I teach the moral codes and ethics of the religion, something the others should focus more on, in my opinion.

Well yes.. because we already preach that there is. We do have the capacity/knowledge because a lot of people believe in him.

Humans just need something to believe in. It doesn't matter who or what it is. It's from our early days on the Earth. What makes things happen. Why do things happen. And someone that wanted to rule that tribe said it was the doings of some god. And later it evolved into one god and a lot of us still believe in that god.

Yes, humans have the capacity of knowing there is a GOD. I challenge you to pick up a bible ( new living translation is easy to understand )
Ultimatly, believing in God takes faith. Faith is believing in something you can't see.
Good luck.

Yes, it doesn't take knowledge, even a child can know there is a God. When you are in the presence of the Lord at church, a revival or camp meeting, you know there is a god, and nothing can convince you other wise.

Yes just like we know we have parents here on earth God knew you and you knew God before you were in the whom sometimes people forget who they really are.
And i believe it is better to teach than preach

Yes, of course. God breathed the breath of life into us and His Holy Spirit dwells in those who love Him. That is how we have the capacity to know without seeing.

Our capacity for comprehension limits us to what we can perceive, which is far short of reality. The repercussions of this go far beyond what God is or isn't and whether the entity as generally perceived exists.
"God" in whatever form is our human attempts to explain portions of exactly this, and so is science.
