    Ok let’s go with your premise that God only reveals himself to those he “intends” to reveal himself to.

    Where ones that leave the rest?

    You have not understood the OP. If you read it again and get what it's actually about, it would be interesting to hear your response to it. I haven't made any "unsupportable assertions" in the OP. I haven't said any "rumours" exist. That's got absolutely nothing to do with the OP. You've been hasty; you're gabbling. You've gone off half-cocked. Take a deep breath and read the OP again.
    Defending an OP you wrote to make people stay on topic, interesting.
    So you think God could have done a better job of convincing people about Him being real?
    You know what God is looking for inside of people, is it just enough to know God is real?
    What if God has something He wants and what He wants can only come through faith
    and that in the face of all the things that we see around us today?
    Exactly what is it you are looking for, what is this OP about if I have missed it so far?

    Given my lack of belief in your god figure and the revelation story you believe in, it's an interesting thing to speculate about.

    If you don't get the OP, don't worry about it.

    Not worried about it, I was just wondering why it was important to you to keep yours on
    topic, but not mine?

    Are you upset about one of the other threads?
