Yes, but the idea of a God is much more extraordinary than the idea of those things, so more proof is necessary before accepting it as a justified truth. And besides, all of those can be proven. Emotions can be proven through examining hormones in the brain / body. And feelings of course can be proven by the fact that we have senses. Its quite obvious to everyone. And all conscious brings have thoughts. The idea of a God doesn't have anywhere near the objective justification as those three. Tying to use subjective experiences as proof doesn't work because not everyone had those experiences, so its not objective at all. So there is no justified reason to accept God as being real. |
You used a simple philosophy to reach that conclusion, philosophy... not science ( apart from the hormones), even though I agree, this can not by any chance considered a proof that leaves no room for doubt. It is quite obvious to everyone indeed, but the thing is, can it be objectively proven to someone who doesn't feel or sense those things ?. this reminds me of a conversation I had with one of my friends; he believes that "unconditional love" doesn't exist in our world ... I couldn't prove him wrong but I have faith that it exists.
However, I'm not trying to prove that God exist by all that, I was simply replying to Nem who claimed that If you cannot prove something exists then it doesn't exist.
To answer you main point of this thread, God existence is the only thing that makes sense for me... the source of all "causes". Islam is the only religion that gave me such a God "Before eveything, after everything, and nothing else is like him".
