WHO SAYS THERE IS A GOD? You?

I do say that moral principles must originate from God, otherwise, there can't be any morals, only personal tastes. If the only logical source for morals is God, then that is evidence for God. Let me ask you - do you maek up your own moral rules or are there universal moral rules that exist independent of your beliefs?

But this matter of God allowing suffering is a meaty issue, exmarine. How could God have let this happen, for instance?: "Dozens Dead..."

I confess you skeptics about the goodness of God have given me food for thought, as it pertains to such a calamity. Could it be I've had my fill of the spoon fed doctrine I've leaned?

Do you know that you are offering a tautology as evidence? You seem so convinced that your logic is better than mine. Are you a polylogist?

I reasoned that the existence of God is not possible when I was a teenager. Nothing has changed my understanding of this in fifty years. You are hard worker in your attempts to prove His existence, but I remain totally unconvinced.
