"It is not a Christians responsibility to prove there is a God. it is in the laps of the non believers to prove there is not. Impossible."
Huh?

Ah, circular logic. When faith alone isn't strong enough.

The onus of proof is on whoever suggests one or the other. When someone says. Prove there is a God? It is just as adequate to say prove there isn't.
As far as I am concerned believe whatever you will, it's only when you challenge the other you should bring proof.
Good day to you.

You Know? Madeline O'Hara who was an Atheist Managed to have Prayer removed from our schools. She Raised A Son as An Atheist......But Later in Life He Wanted Proof! He started Researching The Bible.....And could not come up with any..... Instead, He Found GOD, and Surrendered His Soul and Life to HIM! He became an out-standing Evangelist For Jesus........>> Needless to say, His Mother Dis-owned Him, and even took His inheritance From Him For Life.
I SAID ALL THIS TO SAY: "This non-believer set out to Prove there was no God.....and it was IMPOSSIBLE." He COULD NOT DO IT! "Thank You, Jesus" (smile)

It is not an arsonist's responsibility to stop setting fires. It is in the laps of the property owners to keep it from happening.
It was not the responsibility of government leaders to prove there were WMDs in Iraq. It was in the laps of the press and the citizens to prove there were not.

I don't know about the second part, but if Christians took the first part to heart the world would be a happier place. And the second part wouldn't matter.

Will people prove science wrong? Things from the Bible have been proven by science throughout the years!!!!!
Since we say there is a God...and that science is proving it for us...then it is up to those who say there is no God to prove to us that our belief, our faith, years of written and recorded history and science are all wrong!

I'm a Christian, and I know that's silly. You can not prove something does not exist. It can't be done.
Posing an impossible challenge does not count as a victory. *shakes head*

well, if this were a court of law, it would be the Christians responsibility to show by the preponderance of evidence that there is a God.

It is not my responsibility to prove that you owe me $10,000. It is in your lap to prove that you do not.

That question and the answers with most of the thumbs down are irrational, illogical, immoral, and very christian like. Ref:
