What would count as evidence of God's existence?

Question

Specific examples?

Sorry, too many good answers. I'm gonna have to let this one go to vote.

Answer 1

Earth, Planets, Dirt, Air, Animals, Humans, Fish, Everything. Is that enough?

Answer 2

Pretty much anything that science and the "laws" of nature say is impossible. The list of impossible things is very very long.

I would be accepting of him manifesting himself physically in some unequivocal and convincing way. And assuming everybody else saw the same apparition, and there were photographs etc. Even then, I would be more likely to think of a physical manifestation as more likely an alien lifeform.

The bottom line is, there are literally an infinite number of things that God could do to prove his existence to a non-believer who is not willing to accept his existence on faith only. God, if he exists, has so far chosen not to do any of those things. I guess he really does work in mysterious ways.


Or it doesn't exist.

Answer 3

Maybe something more than a image of the Virgin Mary on a Grilled Cheese sandwich. Why not just put a big made by God Copyright on the moon, large enough that everyone could read it.

ehrhoff_is_my_hero -- The problem with your argument from ignorance fallacy as proof for god is that I am just not very ignorant.

ImJust bob I see all these things but I attribute them to mathematical laws of physics not a make believe sky fairy.

Answer 4

How about this: All at once, at exactly the same time, all over the world, all communications devices, i.e., radio, television, radar, computers, etc. stopped broadcasting and remained silent and then a voice can be heard coming from those communications devices in all languages that says "I am God. How are you?"

Answer 5

Have you looked at some of the photos from space recently? Have you looked at the face of a newborn child?
Have you driven the coast Hi way of the Pacific Coast and witnessed the vastness of the ocean?
Have you pondered the complexity of your own hand?
These are just 4 questions of the countless millions of questions that would count as evidence of God's existence.

Are you asking because you doubt? Or are you a believer fishing for doubters?

al 4 now B

Answer 6

Oh, geez... He could cure AIDS. He could stop little babies from dying in the cradle. Or bring about World Peace.

Or if he wants to be less pro-active, he could show up in person - you know, on a mountaintop or something. Perform a few miracles. The options are limitless.

Apparently he chooses to prove his existence only to people who already believe - in things like visions at night or images in mouldy bread.

That seems to me to be a limited use of unlimited strength, but who am I to judge?

Answer 7

Which deity? There not being now known impossibilities with the major organized religions would help. Any evidence at all would be a start, for any religion.

Answer 8

If god were to come to me, and say "I am god. What proof do you require?", I would reply: "Teach me the ultimate theory of everything, and show how it leads to the observed values of the physical constants of the universe." Einstein spent the last years of his life looking for such a theory; he never found it, and neither has anyone else.

Answer 9

If we got a memo signed by God that said "tomorrow 2+2 will equal 5", and then it did.

Answer 10

Ill take physics being broken.

Refract light differently, as before the flood, when rainbows didnt exist...

Answer 11

A God coming to me while I am awake and saying "I exist" at a time when I can be sure that it was not a hallucination.
