Since when is FreeRepublic a site where people are asked to disprove God??? That's about as Liberal as it gets. No, I guess you could be asking me to disprove God for the sake of Communism, that would be a bit more Liberal, but seriously....

FYI, when we talk about proof or disproof, we assume a definition of proof. You might think of a legal type of proof (beyond reasonable doubt) and the materialist likely assumes a laboratory proof. The question for the materialist is, would he hold his shaky theory to the same standard of proof as he demands for the existence of God?

There is also the problem of what the FR atheist will accept for proof. On one thread, a poster said he wouln't believe unless God Himself appeared before him and proved that He really was God and not a fake. No one can take such a position seriously. It is an act of not only intellectual suicide to hold such a position but open rebellion that lets the glands control the brain instead of the brain controlling the glands.

Finally, the existence of God is provable. The problem is not lack of evidence or proof for the existence of a Creator, the problem is most decidedly the closed mind of the skeptic who choses different and inconsistent standards of proof to suit his lifestyle.

So I've heard, but I've never actually seen it proven. I've seen strings of logical fallacies tossed together and touted as "proof", typically involving non-sequiturs but also strawmen and wishful thinking. If there is a proof of a "God", I would love to see it. It would also be nice of this 'proof' established and confirmed certain properties of this 'God'.

Such arrogance is just unbelievable to me.

You guys talk as if, if you don't believe the way I do, then you are not human. You have absolutely NO respect for those that do not have the same religious belief as you do.

you have no tolerance at all, you continue to domonize, and of course laugh at a theory that you just can't seem to grasp.

This is closemindedness at it's worst.

THe Taliban comparison is getting closer and closer to the real truth here.

You CANNOT Tolerate a person or persons, or theories or science that disagrees with your religious beliefs.

It is quite sad, I find such closed minds are the first to jump on the bandwagon to destruction when given the opportunity to have power over those that they disagree with.

In this respect, you're not a very good Christian. The Fathers of the Church, from Paul to Martin Luther, have repeatedly stressed that Christianity is a matter of faith. Luther went so far as to state that the statements of the devil are fully in accord with reason, whereas faith is not. One does not need to have faith in what can be proven (c.f. Hebrews 11:1) .
