(2) Think about how improbable that is.

whoa bro....hold on a second. First off, man made up the number 2, and 4. We decided that was how we would equate and solve our problems. Plus, our numbers end at nine and then continue, we could have just as well made a few more past that number. The equation 2+2=4 does not prove that there's a god. I'm sure if you thought about it hard enough you could just end up claiming that god made man, and man made equations, therefor god made them. But since we decide to resolve questions like this more logically and more thought out to provide a better answer, then an answer like that would not be suitable. Everyone should be open to the possibility of either at the moment, but we should not be dealing in absolutes just yet since we still don't know what the answer is yet.
peace and love,
rob

Here is an easy equation to understand to why a God exists. Agree?
(1) 2+2=4
(2) Think about how improbable that is.
(3) If the universe were left to random chance, 2+24 would probably not equal 4.
(4) Instead, it might be equal to -43, or 7,894,321,695,844, or something else.
(5) Only God could make 2+2=4.
(6) Therefore, God exists.

I have read some strange questions. Also I have seen some questionable logic.
Frankly.... I do not agree.
It baffles me......
You have the strangest logic for existence of a deity.
Let me try to complete the logic you've attempted.
Either 2+2=God
Or God was a Mathematician
Or You use Math to make your logic work so that you don't have to really think about a logical answer.
Math was created by man. as was the measuring of time and the words your reading.
Now if you want some Logic to use that actually affords some consideration... try this?
(1) I have faith in god and his existence.
(2) My faith in him makes me stronger and wiser and helps me get through life's trials.
(3) My faith in My God makes me feel loved and safe.
(4) Therefor, Within Me, God exists.

I agree and disagree. Only an educated person knows math and therefore sees God work in it. It is possible that an uneducated person could see Gods work in a problem like 2+2=5. It is simply a matter of interpretation. In a dream both answers could be correct to a wise man because he knows he is not longer bound by the parameters of logic. God is the creator of all things.

Joe R, this is a momentous occasion in religious history!
All of humanity will be forever grateful. You have summarized some of the most compelling arguments supporting religious beliefs. You cut through all the lies and smoke and brought out the essence of the arguments. There is really no way for anyone to counter the truth about JESUS anymore! For this, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Also... I love people who apparently are not familiar with logic, yet they say things like "Your logic is sooooo flawed it escapes me how you could even pose such stupidity.". What a mess we are in.

but 2 + 24 is not 4 and 2 plus 2 is a man made concept. You are easily impressed

Perception is 9/10ths of reality, Therefore Klingon's exist, I believe it, learned to speak Klingon, I have even seen them on TV. By the way 2+2=22.

Mathematics was invented by human beings to describe the physical universe around them so what you are in essence saying is simply that man is god sorry you said it not me I was simply translating using logic . sorry your arguments still don't make sense as you are working from negative proof still and deductive logic never can prove new facts it can only state known values with positive proof try inductive logic instead it is trickier but you can sometimes learn something new !
You might want to read the book stranger in a strange land if you think this way and remember to GROK and also remember THOU ART GOD !!

Dissagree. 2+2=4 is not improbable. Man invented time and numbers.

Wow! I love yall!!!
But it could have been so much easier than any of those little proofs! You want proof God exists and you wanna be sure? You know how you find out? YOU ASK A BAPTIST!!!OR EASIER, WAIT FOR ONE TO COME FIND YOU!!!!Or, if you prefer variety, ask also a member of the Church of Christ! They'll make an appeal to authority (The Bible!)
THEY JUST KNOW! And...THEY WILL TELL YOU ALL ABOUT IT!!!
Then, spaghetti dinner invitations galore will find their way to you!!!The last supper had spaghetti at its main course, to think we all missed it.
You might get in trouble for singing way too loud and off key in their choirs, but you won't GO TO HELL for that, trust Jesus, he'll take you straight on to Heaven!
Just be sure to wear your cross at all times. This, you see, is your key to heaven! The bigger your key, the better your chance that it will fit into the lock of the pearly gate. If it doesn't fit, man, forget it, cause you're screwed, and even hell won't take you at that point.
I am going to hell. I already know. A Baptist told me, the Bible told him so, so he knows. Jesus loves me and I am not going to follow him to Heaven. So, about hell.. If I get there before any of you, would you like me to save you a seat??? Peace and Love and Happy Holidays,
yoUUrs TrUUly,
Andi
