But he’s also quite perceptive to demand that someone tell him about God through how they live, not just how they felt or even what they read. The Christian concept earned its way to the top of the heap in the world for excellent reasons. Any hypothetically better grasp of God is going to have to put out a better performance than this before it could be acceptable. But many people don’t have the patience to let their minds be expanded to grasp those reasons.
