Everyone wants God to perform a miracle. Do you want a magic show----or would just seeing that God is God be good enough?

Crow James---I agree---but what actual proof would be proof enough?

Many think that seeing is believing.
God has NOT set it up that way...His way is that of faith. Of not seeing, yet believing.
Unfortunately, what will happen,(it's prophecied that it will) is when the AntiChrist comes on the scene, there WILL be miracles performed. People will believe because of them, BUT, they will be falling for the one that cannot save, they will follow the one that will lead them right to hell.

Forget magic, forget proof, some unambiguous evidence would work for me. As in, evidence that could not be interpreted any other way. And why should such a all-powerful all-present all-knowing entity need to operate on blind faith anyway? It should be bloody obvious to everyone on this planet. Yet only 33% believe in your version of god (and that is only when we add all denominations with sometimes wildly varying Christian beliefs together), the rest has completely different ideas.

I don't expect magic, though I would point out that 3,000-odd years ago God was a lot more publicly boastful about his abilities than he seems to have been at any time since.
Just something unequivocally inexplicable by anything other than the laws of nature would do for me. I don't want seas parted, just something that utterly confounds the efforts of the most scrutinous mind.
And why SHOULDN'T God do the occasional impressive feat? He's God! If he wanted he could halt Venus in its orbit and send it on the opposite direction! Otherwise, he seems content to offer up this big empty nothing, never doing a thing, not answering prayers, not offering anything to anyone that they don't do themselves, not helping make the world a better place.
So we conclude: he just ain't there.

We are used to seeing in the world what we are seeing. But actually every single particle that we see in this world, is a magic in itself. Don't we feel bewildered when we see the rising and setting of the sun with amazing precision in terms of time? Doesn't the chirping of the birds every morning and thereafter, make us feel wonder?
It is so, that man made magics appeal to us and the God created wonders are no magic to us.

Your argument is that, considering the fact that i can't practice with one hundred pc certainity that G-d wasn't created from magic goo, he grow to be created from magic goo. Your command of dialectic staggers me. First, you call for that I practice a unfavourable, that's logically impossible. 2d, you work together interior the fallacy of argumentum advert ignorantum (meaning, in case you are able to no longer practice some thing isn't "x," that's "x"). And 0.33, devoid of any justification in any respect, you assign me the burden of knowledge. (in case you're questioning of a occupation direction, do no longer p.c. regulation--this could be thrown out on a action to push aside on the pleadings formerly you obtain back to the place of work.) considering the fact which you are the single advancing the thesis, the burden of knowledge is on you, and you have shown me no data, the two direct or circumstantial. considering the fact which you haven't any longer met your burden, even via a preponderance of the data, I win via a default judgment. I in simple terms wish my expert life grow to be that easy. Grace be unto you and peace.

unambiguous evidence that a god exists is necessarily a miracle don't you think? how would god show that he is god without doing something that only a god could do? all you seem to be doing here is rationalising why god hides from those who don't believe in him.

Have a faith-healer, through your god, restore a missing limb to an amoutee. Right there before our eyes.
