Please tell me you don't consider the bible objective evidence
How do you know god exists?
Because the bible says so!
But how do you know what the bible says is true?
Because the bible is the word of god!
But how do you know god exists?
Because the bible says so!
Circular "logic" at its best

LOL... I think thats what I could fairly say about you too...
Believe as you like... it is a free world and I make no attempt to sway your feelings...
Don't fault me or criticize me for searching for real proof of the truth... neither this video or anything else I have seen or read to date produces tangible proof...
It is an attempt by someone who believes to force their belief on others with cherry picked, loosely interupted theroy.
Peace

Your a closed mind. You creationist you.
For you see, you are partially right! Creationism is Correct! HOWEVER!
Satan created the Universe! Yup, Satan did.
According to the oh so logical creationists, and there incredible scientific minds, everything was created you see by only ONE God, because you see EVERYTHING has to have CAUSE and EFFECT, and thus God has no creator, because everything has one!
Yet, SATAN created the Universe!
Every single non-bible based creationist evidence and argument for a God, works for a Satan-God
And like most of the Bible-based evidence, if read and interpreted in the original language, also points to Satan God.
Thus, I have compelling and Convincing Evidence that Life was Created by Satan! What say YOU?
A: because the evidence points to it! From the micro to the Macro - they reveal purposeful and guided design. Something that accidental chance event is not and will not be able to do in million billion years. The Origin Of Life also points to an Intelligent Creator.
A: Nope, not just because the Bible says so but because it's the ONLY reasonable and commonsensical satisfying explanation to the Origin Of Life.
A: because its been proven to be true over and over again. Prophecy is one of its biggest and strongest proof that the Bible is true.
A: and that too - of course .
A: many more factors also show that God exist - like the spiritual side of man and the way how life was designed and created.
Again please explain to me if God is capable of badness, why did Jesus said the following: “And as he was going out on his way, a certain man ran up and fell upon his knees before him and put the question to him: “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit everlasting life?” Jesus said to him: “Why do you call me good? Nobody is good, except one, God.” (Mark 10:17, 18) If Jesus is the epitome of goodness why did he say that "Nobody is good, except one, God"? Why did Jesus gave the glory to his father and God if you say that God is bad? Let's start here.

That is not possible. If somebody is Omniscient, it means that they know every that has ever happened or ever will happen AT ALL TIMES. They can't just turn the knowledge off. It's always there.
Says who? You?
Haha, in a loving way? God told them to listen to what he commanded OR ELSE. How many loving parents give their children 1 chance and then kick them out of the house as soon as they make a mistake based on complete ignorance on their part?
ehovah God simply chose not to know what Adam and Eve are going to do. It's a loving way - rather than force them to obey, he let them make the decision. He wants them to make up their mind. Just like you if you have kids, would you rather have them love and obey you willingly? Me - of course. And that's all the test was.
How could it be murder if Jehovah God warned the people of the coming flood? How could it be if God gave everyone a chance to get saved? Forty years it took Noah and his family to construct the Ark but what did the majority of people do? Ridicule and make fun of Noah, his family and God. In that forty years Noah and his family were not only carpenters/farmers but preachers.
It's a continuation of the command, besides why should God start the creation again if a sample/representative of each of the animal "kind" can be saved alive and reproduced again? Makes sense?
The bible talks about worshiping god in MANY sections. It seems to me like I know more about the bible than you do.
OKay, then who did Jesus say is the god of this world?
And why did Jesus call his Father his God?
So it's the Fundamentalists Christians your talking about then that are insane?
I'm not a Fundamentalists but are lumping me with them?
Here's just a small portion of the DNA code and this webpage - using critical thinking which code is more complex to program?

Difference between you and me is that I consider all evidence as suspect until proven to be the correct one.
For example - can the information contained in the the DNA create itself? Can chance event organized and program the genetic code? What's the probability of it happening by chance? What does the evidence show? Evidence upon evidence shows us that it's impossible - not in million billion years. Blind unguided chance can not create such complex, orderly and purposeful design as the DNA.
Thus the logical conclusion - it's a result of a masterful orderly purposeful design!
Do the facts support it? Yes of course.
Here's just a small portion of the DNA code and this webpage - using critical thinking which code is more complex to program?
The DNA code
or the ATS webpage code?
Can unguided programing of the the DNA code or the ATS webpage code possible?
Only someone who has a close mind will say it is.

It is very unlikely that the universe would make the website's code. The universe would have to randomly put the letters and they'll just have to match English words which spaces and proper punctuation by chance.
It is much so more logical to believe that the universe DID make the DNA code by chance. It is just 4 letters repeating in different ways...
And that ladies and gentlemen is a BELIEF! I can't believe you're still doing this nonsense. You state "the evidence points to it", but then completely fail at presenting any OBJECTIVE evidence. Ridiculous...especially after others have pointed out what hogwash this argument is.
Talking about "reasonable" and "commonsensical" when it comes to the bible and your creationist nonsense is ironic given that you completely fail at applying logic and presenting objective evidence.
Proven, huh? A TON of bible prophecies are demonstrably wrong (link) and it's a FACT that many prophecised outcomes were in fact added to the bible AFTER they occurred. But hey, let's just ignore facts, right? That way, that illogical fantasy world doesn't collapse...right?
So the bible is the word of god even though it was written by MEN? Care to present evidence of this? Or is this also one of those "you have to believe first to believe" hogwash claims?
How on earth is spirituality proof of god's existence? It could just as well be a sign of how people try to fill gaps in knowledge with myths to "make themselves feel better" about not really knowing. They're essentially claiming to "know" when in reality they simply fill a gap in knowledge with magic...kinda like you. And given that evolution explains how life evolved from single celled organisms to what we see today...how on earth does that prove god?
Well, first of all, there's no objective evidence of Jesus' existence and his doings in the first place. But even if you assume he existed, there's still no proof of him being the son of some god. But hey, even if all that stuff were true, I'm still at a loss of why Jesus would say that given the horrible genocide god committed, and of course given that worms can dig into little children eyes and turn them blind...which given that the worm is also a creation of god according to your (lol) "logic" makes god a pretty nasty son of a bitch.
What you're doing is simply claiming god is only responsible for the good things, but you simply ignore all the genocide and condoning slavery in the bible that is ALSO attributed to god. I guess whatever allows you (in your mind) to pretend that fantasy world is real...because I don't think you agree with genocide and the other stuff god supposedly did according to the bible, which explains why you refuse to admit those things are attributed to god. You're self-delusional!!!
"having complete or unlimited knowledge, awareness, or understanding; perceiving all things.'
According to the bible, god is omniscient. Complete / unlimited knowledge. If I knew what the weather was going to be tomorrow I couldn't just turn that knowledge off.
What's the difference? He's all powerful. He could do anything. You keep attributing human characteristics to god, yet claim he's omnipotent. He could snap his fingers and get the people to repent or remove them while preserving everything else, but instead he does it the tedious way and has a 40 day rain that floods the entire planet. Intelligent? No. Loving? No. Logical? No. What power does this guy actually have?

Just like you said - " If I knew what the weather was going to be tomorrow I couldn't just turn that knowledge off."
The KEY words are "If I knew". If you have the information then you will know what the weather will be like in the following days but it doesn't mean that you lack the ability to know.
And if does that people like you will say that God is what? So no matter what God does he can't win, know what I mean?
