Weird things happen all the time though, we can't explain everything yet. I'm sure they are mostly the imagination (For lack of a better term)of the person who experienced it.*
I'm an Athiest.
I don't believe in God and I won't until I see some evidence.
I honestly can't see why people readily accept such absurd concepts and rituals as long as they are old, new religeons are generally looked down upon as nonsense despite having the same level of proof as older ones.
The thing is (and I'm trying not to argue here OK, that isn't the point of this thread) that, as a Christian I have felt the presence of God within me and around me. Several other people I know via the church have felt the same.
You will never know if those were the same experiences you felt
The question is: Was that the presence of God, or something more normal that you chose (Whether you knew it or not) to interpret as the presence of god?
Would you have though so much of this experience if you were an Athiest?
These cannot yet be answered and so religeon is a fruitless debate.
...But then, their is nothing that your all organic robots programmed to believe that your human by a giant, invisible melon in the sky. Perhaps me and David Hasselhoff are the only humans left? Perhaps people would be more inclined to believe it if it was written a few thousand years ago?
The robots, they're watching...*
[Edit, for Seer Fox who posted while I was typing] For example a while back I was visiting relatives in the north of England. I woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of voices speaking what sounded like German. They talked a few words to each other then stopped. Suffice to say I had trouble sleeping that night. I was the only one who had heard anything despite them being quite loud and clear.
Where they Ghosts, Aliens or was I just half alseep and dreaming?
