If there is scientific proof then can you replicate in a lab with the same results?
No preaching please just proof.

I have thought and studied for many years and I can' t come up with a logical reason why we even need god.

God only exists in the minds of the fearful.

Rationality is a tool for understanding and manipulating the phsyical world, it is a human mutation that has been a great benefit to our species' survival. However, rationality and the various human-created systems of logic within it (Aristotelian, Cartesian, etc) don't explain irrational experiences by definition - love, intuition, needs, emotions, connection, acceptance, etc. These things are not about our experience of the material world, they are questions involved with experiences that [currently, at least] defy rationality altogether. The experience of the spiritual transcends rationality in the same way.

Logic cannot deduce God or a reason we need to have a God. It also can't explain why I love my wife, unless you really do experience such connections as merely your selfish gene created an illusion in your robotic, inexplicable singular consciousness and that relationships are really just cons to further our DNA strands.

In which case your experience significantly diverges from humanity's over the long term.

I agree that scientific proof is irrelevant to the faithful, and I have always said throughout my life that is takes a busload of faith to get by.

I choose however to put my faith in ME, I don't believe there is a god. Never really have.

That doesn't mean however that I am out to prove to the entire religious community that there isn't. I just disagree with where they put there faith.

Some of us who are non-believers seem to want to mock and ridicule the folks who are religious, that's never been something I've done. With the exception of fanatics I don't have a problem with religious people at all.

For the person who said that "near death experiences" should be considered......I've been dead twice in my life and neither time was there any lights, or tunnels, or out of body experience. The simple fact is that I never would have known one way or the other until the doctors told me I had been gone.

actually, your proof is in the lab, under the microscope and all around you.

if you recall, a certain young man was told to be careful not to get molds into his cultures or it would kill the bacteria. You know the story

he saw a cure, others saw having to do the experiments again.

It is point of view. In the eye of the beholder, if you have open eyes, and a mind that challenges what you are being taught, Not fight, just challenge it, I think you will start to see the hand of God.

Dr. Crick does not think life started here, he thinks it came from somewhere else, space aliens perhaps. Do you know more about genetics than him?

No, and there cannot be. Science is the study of the natural. The direct proof of the supernatural is, therefore, not part of the modality of science. The supernatural might be inferred if there were actually something in the natural world that could only be explained by the supernatural.

PROOF - SCIENTIFIC PROOF ... THAT IS, IF YOU BELIEVE IN REALITY!


I'm glad you brought this topic up, also, because it allows me to call upon your response to the work I recently published via Xulon Press.com, “TWO BIRDS ... ONE STONE!!” [by Denis Towers], which, my experience has been, during its brief and limited exposure so far, has proven a powerful faith-promoter.
It actually illustrates, following a 9 year research into the fact – one Heavenly-inspired [I believe] – a discovery I made 10 years ago, being a long-time specialist in Kinesiology and applied anatomy, that the typical ground snake presents as the precise antithesis of Man in ALL aspects, both – anatomically-functionally and psycho-behaviorally.
For many, this has proven quite an eerie finding!
But once one has recovered from the sheer gravitating shock of this perfectly central, yet simple, discovery, it is usually immediately realized that only a true and absolute brilliant Master mind could possibly have engineered such – that such an outcome could only be the result of meaningful deliberation and conscious decision, and, therefore, that “random mutation” [per the belief of ‘evolutionary theory’] certainly wasn't 'random", if at all!!
Overall, it has proven a highly intriguing, most fascinating and enormously revelatory study.
Of course, this finding not only tends to disprove 'evolution', but it also Powerfully supports the Biblical Adam and Eve account, wherein it was the very serpent – through whom Satan (a spirit only) was able to speak to Adam and Eve in the natural world – that same serpent which first set Man in opposition to God; and it was the serpent, therefore, that God chose to “curse above all the beasts of the field” [per description in holy writ] for its trouble.
As indicated, as 'fruits of its labor', God cursed the serpent 'above all the beasts of the field' ... hence making significant changes to it (a passing few recorded in scripture).
What this study appears to show is that those changes made were so as to symbolize or represent this very act of opposition of the snake as described – an act which effectively became the most transcendent single decision and most significant event among ALL events in the entire history and progress of Man, barring the All and Most important of all – that of redemption from this very event – the Atonement of Christ Himself.
Meantime, as stated, it seems that the Creator has temporarily signified, in effect, the serpent’s complete opposition to Man and God [in whose image we were created] … so that, in typical life-ironic fashion, what has tended to be the most unbelievable account concerning Man in the entire holy record: that which claims that a snake spoke to a man (all the more so since today the creature cannot even vocalize) – has become the very one that we have most scientifically proven took place (or supported)!!!!!
… but isn’t this, though, just so typical of the genuine ironies of real life?!

It has, indeed, become a most intriguing, diabolical world since the snake expressed its opposition to Man and God.
It has, likewise, been a most encompassing, intriguing and faith-promoting study to undertake.
From the reader’s viewpoint, I have known people so inspired by the work as to read it twice in the first week or so that they had accessed it.

I personally invite you to search it for yourself, and inform me of your experience.
Thank you very much.

Are you looking for a "god" you can fit under a microscope?
No, I'm afraid you will never find "scientific" proof of God.
The only proof of God you will ever find will be inside of yourself...
I wish I could help you with that...

You know there is no proof except for the testimonies of christians and how God has changed their life. I think the near death experience is something we need to consider. Believing in God is an act of faith. I don't think it would be so interesting if there were proof. Do you?

Yes, but the necessary technology is not yet understood and accepted by the current scientific community. No lab can contain the infinite. You will have to wait if you can't experience religion or the mystical.

Personally, I don't need scientific proof, but I realize that others are not like me and that they may need this. so...I did a quick search of "scientific proof of god". I suggest you do the same.

Yes. Many scientific studies have been documented with the use of prayer. Studies using groups of people being prayed for showed a difference between individuals who were being prayed for and those who were not being prayed for. Also individuals with their brains being wired during prayer showed activity on gauges that were unlike those that were not praying.
