Atheists, what would it take to convince you there is a God?

Answer 1

God healing an amputee in my presence.
I'll supply the amputee.
You supply the God.

So far I've had no takers.

Answer 2

Why would it take 98,000 years give or take a million, for this g_d to show up, then disappear? What has this g_d done for anyone in 2000 years except cause hatred, murder, and unprovable church dogma?

Mankind has made so many advances [after they stopped listening the church and that has only been the last 200 or so years]. If your g_d knows so much why didn't he have men landing on the moon in 4 AD or BC. It took hundreds of years of men's testing and learning. Your g_d offers nothing - NOTHING!

So what will it take? You tell me....Your arguments rest on mythical supernatural ancient beliefs. I choose to be realistic and logical, unfortunately those early myths hold nothing for me and those so called miracles are ridiculous. Why weren't they something like - teaching about the universe or handing over a cell phone to Pilot, now that would have been a miracle - so you say, they didn't know about cell phones, No technology you say, then I rest my case. I thought your almighty deity knows all things, surely it must have known about a cell phone and could have passed that information along instead of how many people should be killed if they didn't believe.

Our early ancestors believed that the gods lived in the clouds, I think we know better today [at least in the sane world!] We know the laws of nature are constant, they do not allow people to have mystical births and have lifetimes of hundreds of years. It's a matter of pure common sense.

Answer 3

I am not atheistic but, rather, agnostic, but I can not imagine what would convince me beyond the slightest doubt of the existence of God. Even the arrival in the flesh of an entity claiming to be God would leave me skeptical; he would have to be capable of performing feats for which there was no rational explanation such as actually resurrecting the dead, returning them to youthful good health, rejuvenating the aging members of the populace, altering time. In those instances, I might be persuaded of the existence of a deity; however, I would not respect him if he proved to be the narrow-minded, petty, wrathful figure of religious traditions. He would have to be as great as his Cosmic genius in order to impress me!

Answer 4

Why would you want to convince me?

Isn't the whole point of believing in the existence of a deity, faith which is believing without proof or convincing?

Maybe I am missing something, maybe you believe the point of believing in the existence of a deity is being convinced it's real rather than simply having faith.. :)

Were you convinced your deity of choice exists and that's why you believe?

Answer 5

To see him descend from the sky in a golden chariot being pulled by ten flaming winged horses, then for him to come out, grow 1000 times in size and stomp the streets of new york and climb the empire state building like King Kong and scream "I AM GOD!!!!!" That should just about do it for me.

Answer 6

What would convince me that there's a God?

Answer 7

You couldn't convince me.

If goD himself spoke to me he would have to answer some hard questions and perform some great feats before I could believe I wasn't being tricked or hallucinating.

So?

Answer 8

Evidence of it's existence.
Just one, single, solitary shred of credible evidence that suggests that such a being exists. That's all I ask.
But in the 1900 or so years since this cult was formed, not one of it's leaders or followers has been able to provide anyone, with such evidence.
Gee, I wonder why?

Answer 9

Evidence.

Answer 10

God!

What the heck is he doing? Where is he? Why is he hiding? Why the dumb "tests?" Why doesn't he just come forward if he exists? Or can he not because human beings can't create a living, talking deity?
