Then you do not have faith.

That's quite a statement from a Godless soul. For your consideration: God reveals Himself whenever, however, and to whomever He chooses. You apparently either can't or won't accept that. Maybe you're upset because you weren't chosen. If you want Him to hand you a bag of M&M's to reveal Himself to you, I can just about guarantee it ain't gonna happen. The Pharisees demanded a miracle from Jesus; it wasn't forthcoming. Why? Not that Jesus couldn't and didn't perform many miracles in His short ministry, but He only performed miracles for believers; the faithful if you will. You see, faith is only the beginning of the relationship with God. It can only get better from there.

Belief in the existence of God requires nothing tangible to tell you god exists. The whole point of Christianity is that it's a system based on faith in the unknown. There's no tangible proof in God. God says he refuses to prove he exists because proof denies faith and without faith God is nothing. So all the real tangible experiences people are having with God, they're either mistaking something else for a tangible experience with God or they have created in their own mind the proof they've needed and destroyed God in their own heads.

Remarkable rant from a clueless non-believer. You are sadly, a presumptuous simpleton. Something else for you to consider: Yakboy has apparently been blessed with a certain knowledge of God. I'm willing to bet there's a reason for that. God uses His followers as His messengers, and is there a better messenger than one who has an unshakable knowledge of the Creator? I don't believe so.

I doubt any of this will influence you one way or the other, but at least you will not be able to deny you were told the story when you stand before Him knowing full well you will not be able to explain away your foolishness.

P.S. He's really not hard to find or see, and reaching Him is easier than you think. Just give Him a call; He answers on the first ring...
