Now, both the theists and the atheists, are on the same boat, they do not have the empirical proofs on their respective platforms about a material world view and a Creator God.
The atheists believe that man comes from a stardust turning into a soup into an organic chemical and eventually into a man and to top it all these things happen in random given an infinite number of time _ there is no God, or so they claim, God is dead! The theists believe that man and his surroundings are a creation of God the Father of all spirits, probably, the more plausible argument unless there is an adverse claim and evidence refuting it.
It goes to say, that in theism people believe in God's existence because they have been with God and have heard, seen, and learned from Him. Needless to say, God in presence is a MAN but in essence God is a Spirit.
If one were to follow the thread of my argument it can be concluded that the debates pervading and prevailing among and between the, so called, believers and the non-believers are all but a vanity at best.
How can anyone claim and testify of a God he has not seen? How can one claim creation by mere theory and human imagination out of natural selection and random mutation, and big bang, and Cambrian explosion, and evolution?
Truly, all these actors are the very antichrists themselves because they do not believe God is a man or that God is come in the flesh. That God by power can appear to all men and by Spirit can speak to all men unto them who seek Him with all their heart, with all their soul, with all their mind, and with all their might.
Now, to know God as a man look for the fruit of the Spirit which is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance because Jesus said, by their fruits ye shall know them.
Now, to know God by the Spirit is to try the spirit whether they are of God: but, how can a man know God if he is none of his and reject knowledge? Who shall teach man the truth? Verily, verily, this world is in a death spin unto the grave.
Romans 1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, DEBATE, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
2 Corinthians 12:20 For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there be DEBATES, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:
1 Timothy 6:5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
One cannot help but wonder why in the world wold people debate on God whose thoughts are not our thoughts and whose ways are not our ways? Behold, the logic of man is by a human thought process which they say is a critical thinking using reason. But God is not a man_ God has mysteries and secrets which is only accessible by the Spirit of revelation from God. Additionally, The things of God is accessible by Faith and not by observation, hence, the need to have the discerning spirit.
Now, possibility is a human thought and imagination in the absence of an evidence. Probability is a human thought used in an uncertain condition and situation. Given that humans are finite and is limited in his experience (in the visible and the invisible) and further constrained, or else, restrained by the natural laws to get an evidence in the spiritual it is but foolish for humans to debate on the things they do not know!
The problem with humans in trying to prove the existence of God is that they limit God by giving a definition when God is not definable and is unknowable. When God sent His servants and saviors to men these declared the the purpose and will in a particular time and generation. His works and ways in the past are only seen as a pattern to compare spiritual with spiritual which is characterized by change.
To interpret God by what is written is no different from limiting God as the Almighty, all-knowing, and omni-present Being. The words all powerful, all knowing, and all present God is not even the description of God. The concept of a maximally great being is not even enough so so why argue on the unknown and the uncertain. Just walk through life challenge and try all of the teachings, reason-based principle, authorities like faith, and to include the a priori. Seek to find your grove in this life because God is the "s!@sf?xxs" [sic] - simply put, no word can describe Him.
Play your game of life and understand what is in it for surely the natural man is limited by his physical attributes, senses, and conscious mind and cannot even scratch the surface of the subconscious and unconscious mind. Thus, debate on God is vain and useless because humans are innately natural filled with frailties, weakness and flaws.
However, here is the catch. If God were powerful as one of the attributes he possess then He must be able to come down and teach and declare his stories for us to heed. Then, God would be knowable at least for his sojourn here on earth but not the plenitude. Remember we have no word to describe him.
