For those who do not believe in God, or don't believe there is enough evidence to support that, what would you

Question

do if God actually appeared to you or spoke to you? Would you believe? Would you go to a mental health clinic? What?

Answer 1

It would first be necessary for the apparition to convince me that it was in fact god. The obvious test to use, since one may suppose that god knows everything, is to ask for the ultimate theory of everything. (Einstein spent the last years of his life looking for such a theory; he never found it, and neither has anyone else. The problem is fiendishly difficult.) If the apparition succeeded in convincing me that it was god, then I should ask: what would he like me to do?

Answer 2

Oh well this is a very interesting question although people are not answering it very seriously. First of all, I would say that there is no chance whatsoever of this happening. But to answer your theoretical question, I am unsure of how I would react. I honestly would probably think that I was hallucinating or having a very very weird neurological problem. But if it felt so real that I thought it really was god (I mean, God might exist but I just don't believe it at all), well of course I would believe. But I believe that there is no way that could happen and anyone who claims it happens to them would seem like a nut to me. Sure, it seems hypocritical, but I'm only human.

Answer 3

Good question Sweetie but I doubt you will get a straight answer like no I still wouldn't believe, or yes I would, or even I would go to a mental health clinic.

Answer 4

I was born A Christian,many years ago Jesus did appear to my entire family,also four times Holy Angels saved my life.Long stories but one quick one I was alone,a lot on mt mind paying no attention I was crossing a street a speeding bus was coming
, I saw it like two seconds from me I was LIFTED up and found myself back on the sidewalk, If I had never heard of God or
Angels.I know this would have caused Me to believe.That is
one of five stories so far.If you think why me,So do I nothing important or special about me.I have to believe God needs me here for something.Please trust Me ,not something i would make up.God is very real and sends Holy angels all the time.

Answer 5

You sound like you met God,shouldn't you be going to medical check up now at the mental health clinic?

Answer 6

If god appeared to me and spoke to me (and only me)...If he did it once I would ignore it and assume it was a transitory hilucination. If he did it multiple times I would see if he would talk to me and someone else at the same time. If he didn't, I'd seek mental health care. If he did, well, the phenomenon would then merit further investigation.

Answer 7

I might ask him to part a sea or two for me, just so I could be sure, but then again I've always been a doubting Thomas...

...but then yeah. I'd believe. I'd believe in Santa Clause too if he scooted down my 8" chimney.

Answer 8

I would certainly be shocked, but stand my ground. Upon my examination of human history and the Semitic religions, I have determined that if there is a god, that god is a selfish dangerous, and narcissistic being that does not have our best interests at heart. I would rather go to hell with all of my loved ones than to praise a god who cares only for itself.

I will ring your doorbell and run away!!!

Answer 9

If the good witch of the north appeared to me I would have to believe in her too, or drop a house on her

Answer 10

I see homeless people walking around talking to him all the time. Lets face it, thats never going to happen, so why even think about it? No offense, but I aint buying what you are selling. Sorry.
