: So I'm supposed to give physical evidence that God exists?

: I did that earlier when I quoted from Romans that the invisible things of God are clearly seen from the visible things which are seen. However, you chose not to accept the fact that physical evidence points to a logical conclusion of a Creator of that physical substance.

: And yes, I continue to use the word "logical" even though you argue that it is alogical. It is perfectly logical to me to conclude that if I have a watch, it required a designer and manufacturer. It is also logical to me to conclude that if I have a world and life and atoms and electrons and anything else, they must have had a Designer and Manufacturer.

: No, I'm unable to logically explain how God can be an eternal Being with no creator Himself. That part I accept by faith. But since that faith is placed in the One Who created me, it is perfectly logical to me to have that faith.

: I don't suppose that you'd accept evidence of how God has worked in my life personally as evidence, or would you? I'd be glad to share some of many, many incidents in which God has used physical means (providing food, clothing, cars, refigerators, finances, etc.) to meet personal needs of me, my family, and others I know, but the fact that God supplied a car -- specific make and model -- that we prayed for specifically isn't "physical" evidence of God's existence, is it. Nor the fact that He supplied the money to pay for a replacement transmission when we needed one but couldn't afford it, etc.

: The physical creation is just one area of many in this world that point directly to God. It is up to each one of us to accept it.

: John 20:29 "Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed."

When will people learn that some things exist and cannot be expained phisically, science can't explain everything, and never will. Keep your mind open and your head up. Bring down materialists like McDonalds. Progress is pointless if purely phisical.
