88. DO LOGICALLY REASONED ASSUMPTIONS AFFIRM PROOF OF GOD?
Ultimately, any proof is based on assumptions that the decision of whether to accept or reject the proof cannot be logically reasoned.
87. WHY DO ATHEISTS RAISE THE BAR ON THE PROOF OF GOD?
To claim that “there is no evidence for the existence of GOD,” atheists raise the bar of what is considered proof, by placing strict acceptance requirements on any argument of the sort, and sometimes the bar is much higher than they require in other areas.
86. THE SUCCESSFUL OR UNSUCCESSFUL NATURE OF EVIDENCE IN GOD
Clearly, there is much and varied evidence of the existence of GOD. What will the atheist say about this? An atheist will of course argue that this evidence is inadequate and fails to prove the existence of GOD.
84. EVIDENCE MOVING TOWARDS PROOF OF THE EXISTENCE OF GOD
But after all this, the question arises: Is there really no evidence for the existence of GOD? And the answer is of course that there is and there will continue to be proof of GOD existing.
83. TRUSTING BASIC BELIEFS IN THE ABSENCE OF DOUBT
Accordingly, this is, for example, the approach of Alvin Plantinga, a great contemporary philosopher of religion. This approach claims that our basic beliefs can be trusted, as long as we have no reason to doubt them.
78. THE RATIONALE OF “THERE IS NO GOD”
We refuted the ontological atheistic proposition that “there is no GOD,” and showed that no rational person would make such a statement.
76. Yet, logic requires the existence of God
On the other hand, some have argued that logic actually requires the existence of GOD. The most famous proof of this kind is Descartes’ ontological evidence that the concept of GOD contains only perfection, and since part of it is existence, GOD necessarily exists.
49. EVIDENCE BASED ON THE HISTORY OF THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL (PEOPLE OF THE BIBLE)
It is said that the King of France once asked the philosopher Belz Pascal to give him evidence of the existence of GOD. Pascal replied without hesitation: “The Jews, Your Excellency.”
BE OPEN TO EVIDENCE, WHATEVER IT MAY BE
He who rejects in advance any testimony that sounds “delusional” to him only because of his prejudices about reality, and what may or may not be in it, is not a rational person but dogmatic and closed. Anyone who is willing to accept extraordinary evidence after reasonable criticism may indeed sometimes err and believe wrong […]
PROOF OF A GOD
This vision is good only for those people who do feel that there is absolute good and evil and are not willing to see this feeling as a “mistake.” But there are many such people, and this observation can definitely prove the existence of a GOD for them.
