Since many (all?!) threads here seem to devolve into a 'prove God!' debate, why not do it straight up, so philosophizing on other subjects won't be distracted?
I propose an examination of evidence for the existence of God, perhaps the most Important Question in the universe, especially in these modern times.
This is a general philosophy topic, not specific to any religious belief. I think this is an appropriate subforum for the topic.
Defining God specifically is not important, nor are caricatures from anyone helpful in examining the evidence.
But i propose this as a light hearted inquiry.. no dogmatism.. no preaching about personal opinions.. and please, no bigoted hostility.. just evidence for God.
Circumstantial, historical, testimonial, empirical, sensual.. subjective, objective, or anecdotal.. anything you want that is evidence for, or against, the existence of God.
Any reasoning is welcome, but not endless repetition of talking points. Make your case, offer rebuttals, and let the reasoning stand on its own. Pounding a propaganda drum does not improve the arguments.
