I'm just saying, sounds like trying to seek the unfindable (by definition).

I thank you for your reply but it seems to me that further discussion is og no need because there is to får a part in our understanding of what is important when tryning to understand why there is very few evidence within spiritual practice. Those proof most if not all spiritual people will give is from within them self and not as in a physical evidence.The point of the analogy is to show how personal experience, is not a pathway to truth.

I assume this was a typo on your and you didn't mean "did belief" but rather "disbelief".
My disbelief of religions doesn't require much explaining.
The reason I disbelief, is lacking any reasons to believe.
I don't require reasons to NOT believe something.
Instead, I require reasons to believe something.
If there is no reason to believe something, then I don't believe it.
As The Hitch so famously said: "That which is asserted without evidence, can be dissmissed without evidence"
It's still experience and the exact same principles apply concerning its validity and epistemic value
That is what the point of the analogy is. The subject is irrelevant.
It's about the path towards the conclusion reached. Not about the destination.
But that's exactly what you are doing. And if you think that you are only using human speaking, then that's just the same as any atheist and theist. So why dismiss the required evidence of atheists as human thinking?Lol i would never demand anything from a God. And i speak with human language be pause i am a human in this life, if i become something Else in my next life i will speak as that.
But to explain God you can not use words or thoughts as a mundane human being.
For someone who has not read any spiritual teaching God can not be understood correctly. But for someone who has study spiritual teaching and practice for most of his or her life, they would understand a little more about what a God is.
This is why i say an atheist can not understand spiritual practice ør teaching.

What i dismiss is the way atheists ask for physical evidence of God or other proofs of spiritual practice, it is not physical evidence, everything happens within the person who Cultivate a spiritual teaching.But that's exactly what you are doing. And if you think that you are only using human speaking, then that's just the same as any atheist and theist. So why dismiss the required evidence of atheists as human thinking?
So god is incapable of making itself physical? Or have physical effects?What i dismiss is the way atheists ask for physical evidence of God or other proofs of spiritual practice, it is not physical evidence, everything happens within the person who Cultivate a spiritual teaching.
But again and again atheists ask for physical evidence.
And you failed to see why atheists don't believe? When you ask for specific kind of evidence atheists want and you dismiss that kind of evidence, then what's the use of even asking. So that would qualify as having no evidence. That's evidence for irrational thinking. In other words, it's evidence that a person is dumb.What i dismiss is the way atheists ask for physical evidence of God or other proofs of spiritual practice, it is not physical evidence, everything happens within the person who Cultivate a spiritual teaching.

Not me. But then again, I'm not primarily an atheist, I'm an Agnostic and subsequently an atheist.What i dismiss is the way atheists ask for physical evidence of God or other proofs of spiritual practice, it is not physical evidence, everything happens within the person who Cultivate a spiritual teaching.
