Do Christians value evidence? If they do, why do they disregard it in religious debates?

Question

1. The unexplained is not evidence that God exist
(who made this? who made that? ect.)

2. Assumptions aren't facts. You can't assume God exist all because you can't think of anything else

3. The bible isn't evidence. Anybody could have written that. They're more contradictions in the bible than all the science books combined

Answer 1

1. The unexplained is also NOT evidence that there is no God.
2. Assumptions aren't facts. But Christians use inference, intuition, and the Holy Spirit to guide their rationale. Consider the FACT that 90% of the world has been spiritually inclined. This OVERWHELMING FACT leads to a REASONED INFERENCE that there is a spiritual facet of life. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion
3. The Bible is supplemented by other historians of the time (e.g. Josephus [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josephus]).

Answer 2

Even HONEST renown atheist scientists have said that they can not absolutely rule out the existence of God, even though they personally do not believe.

They go on to say that if such a God exists - they have no idea of what he is made of, or on what level he exists. Without some clue - science has no methods to test for the existence of God.

Therefore there is not evidence that disproves God and non belief in God is just another belief. This is our evidence in part. Other evidence you don't accept because of your opinion that its not evidence.

FYI The 3 you mentioned is not the evidences we use. We use experiences for the most part in conjunction with the Biblical evidence..., not one apart from the other.

Answer 3

You really are stupid aren't you to even suggest that. Science catches up to the Bible. Not the other way around. Also if you were smart and studied Gods Word with understanding,you would know there are no contradicions in His Word. Stop being ignorant,and get with reality.

Answer 4

The Bible itself has been very good evidence for me that a higher power exists. If you can find me a book just like it then I may just perhaps think twice about my faith...
Unfortunately I'm convinced you won't find anything else like this written... ever. It is absolutely unique.

Answer 5

Jesus confirmed the Old Testament and promised the New Testament. Since Jesus fulfilled the Bible prophecy, He is reliable evidence for Christianity. Christianity bases on something that happened in the history. Historical fact. : )

Answer 6

You want evidence? Look outside and all around you! All this did not just happen. God created the universe and everything in it. If you choose not to believe it, that's your prerogative, but there are eternal consequences to face for not believing. Why not rather choose the eternal rewards?

Answer 7

I don't assume anything, I know God does exist.
The Bible is the Word of God and a science book isn't going to get me to heaven.

Answer 8

Well--they fought against facts when the earth was found not to be flat & standing on pillars as their Holy Word of God stated!!---Now they have to fight over the almost daily finds of more & more fossils--filling more & more gaps in our knowledge as far the evolution of life theory.One wonders why they bicker so--instead of just living a Christian life.

Answer 9

All nature is evidence there is a God. In addition there are millions who claim to know He exists, including myself.

You have nothing.

Answer 10

We have no prood to anyone who is not seeking God. All Christians have received the Holy Spirit, and we know inwardly that God is real. I know that does not in anyway constitute worldly proof. The bible says "without faith you cannot please God"
