Anyone out their trying to prove God's existence?

Question

I'm curious if there are any reputable sources out their tracking stories, phenomena, stigmata, exorcisms, all collectively to demonstrate God's existence and presence in the physical world.

Answer 1

There has been some studied effort in Islamic regions to scientifically demonstrate God's existence, but because of their tendency to keep research to themselves, I do not know precisely who is doing the research. Most theologians and Christian Scientists, of all areas, tend to agree that proof will never be achieved because of the nature of faith required to meet the requirements of Christianity. If you do a search of Islamic teaching institutes, cross-reference with God's existence, you will find some hints of their efforts. The last I heard, Islam had determined that air, itself, proved God's existence; but neither I nor anyone outside of Islam that I know of, followed the study. From time to time, PBS will sponsor a documentary type search for determining one or other aspect of Bible study. I also do not have that list, but it is probably available from the PBS Website.

Answer 2

Was man created by God to die?
Why do we grow old and die?

Aging is such a common experience that few people question why it happens. To the scientific mind, however, aging has long been a puzzle. Why? “It seems to conflict with the drive to survive that underlies most bodily activities,” explains the book The Living Body, by Karl Sabbagh. How close are scientists to understanding the cause of aging?

“There is no single theory that explains all of the phenomena of aging.”—The New Encyclopædia Britannica.

“The contemporary student of aging is faced with more theories than a centipede has legs.”—Dr. Gairdner Moment, professor emeritus of biological sciences.

“Many gerontologists will agree that these are highly muddled times for us. We neither know what is the underlying mechanism of aging, nor are we able to measure the rate of aging in precise biochemical terms.”—Journal of Gerontology, September 1986.

“The parable of the blind man trying to describe an elephant also illustrates the problems of researchers in aging.”—Dr. C. E. Finch, professor of biology and gerontology.

One way to explain aging, as suggested in the book The Living Body, is that cells have “a built-in clock” that allows them to reproduce until “it is time to stop.” What, though, about brain cells, which do not reproduce after birth? Most neurons survive from the person’s birth on into old age. Thus, in the case of a centenarian, the same neurons have functioned for a hundred years.

Yet, millions of neurons die during the life of a human, and the neuron death rate increases with age. Another theory of aging is that cells gradually function less efficiently because of wear and tear. “But since living systems can repair and rebuild themselves, why aren’t these capabilities used fully to fix up the wear and tear?” asks Dr. Richard Cutler in the book The Biology of Aging. “Another difficulty with the wear-and-tear hypothesis,” he adds, “is how to explain the wide range of life-spans characteristic of different mammalian species.”

Chimpanzees have a life expectancy of 40 years, and the gorilla, which is bigger, one of only 30 years. Why do humans live so much longer if aging is due to wear and tear? Why do some reptiles, like the giant tortoise, outlive man? And why do some forms of life seem to last indefinitely?

Genesis 3:3 But as for [eating] of the fruit of the tree that is in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘YOU must not eat from it, no, YOU must not touch it that YOU do not die.’”

Answer 3

All of the possibilities that you present could only be used as supporting evidence and not as proof of God's existence. Here's something you might like to read though. It's rather lengthy but if you are interested it only takes a couple of minutes to read.

Answer 4

I've personally seen miracles.... people instantly cured of cancer while taking no treatment simply by meditating on The Almighty.

I suppose, those with ears will hear, and those without will not.

Such is the way of life and free will.

Answer 5

Look within first as the Goddess and Jesus said.
But yes their are people out looking for physical signs and passing them right up as they don't fit their ideas.

Answer 6

I know of one place that God exists, in the imaginations of the believers.

Answer 7

Dude, I seen him with Elvis in Las Vegas at the corner store on Flamingo and Koval. They might have it on video.

Answer 8

No. The people that try and attempt to de-bunk scientific theory are usually those that have no qualification of the subject in which they speak of. Put it this way, they are witchdoctors trying to falsify modern medicine.....get my point.

Answer 9
