A-G can introduce you to someone who CLAIMS to be her daughter, but is there ever really any way to PROVE that that is indeed her daughter?

Could she not fake the whole thing to mislead you?

In the end, all you have to depend on is various circumstantial evidence.

Much like gravity.

Interestingly, Scripture addresses those who do not believe and states that if someone does not believe the Law and the prophets, even if someone were to rise from the dead, they would be unconvinced.

Believing or disbelieving in God is not so much a matter of lack of evidence, because the world around us is filled with it, as much as a matter of the will.

There is nobody who denies its existence, and yet that existence is not because anyone has actually SEEN or TOUCHED gravitational waves, but knowledge of its existence is completely dependent on the effect it has on objects.

That is the only *proof* that anyone has about its existence.

And why should I believe that this scripture is the "word of god"? Why should I believe that it is anything more than a Tom Clancy novel?
