Do you interprete scripture in a literal way .... the way the fundamentalists interprete scripture ?

This is pure rubbish. It's merely the anthropic principle again. Existence proves only that we exist, and says nothing about how we got here. Penguin is completely correct, you say it was God, ahosyney says Allah, I say it was the Big Bang, who is right? The evidence is not equal for them all though. On my side is the cosmic background radiation, the echo of the bang. You have a book.

Perhaps we could agree that Agerg physically exists and God philosophically exists, according to Aquinas.
Originally posted by lucifershammerEr.. no. The "truth of facts" (whatever that means) would be the facts themselves. If the evidence were such that God were the only logical possible explanation then it would constitute part of a logical proof.
[b]Firstly...lets assume that there was some factual physical evidence available to us all (that can be attributed to nothing other than your god (not the flying spaghetti monster, Muffy etc...))...well then in light of such evidence you wouldn't need to have faith would you!!...more you would be accepting the truth of facts...
Er.. no. The "tr physical evidence for the existence of God is more convincing than that for your existence.[/b]
Originally posted by AgergHang on a minute, Agerg. You do not exist. You have been obliterated with pure logic, or something (green and invisible) philosophical.
[b]Er.. no. The "truth of facts" (whatever that means) would be the facts themselves. If the evidence were such that God were the only logical possible explanation then it would constitute part of a logical proof.
there are some people that cannot accept any truth in the fact that the earth is not 6000 years old, or that in base 2 arithmetic 1+1 = 10 ...[text shortened]... le than invisible green sprouts...they are both ridiculous, as is my view with God.[/b]

If you can't see the point,.... well, actually, you're a Christian - we know you can't see the point!
