He also has shown Himself to us through His son Jesus Christ. We know this because God has given us His word. He is powerful enough to both know that He exists and to convince us of this.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07306854704766653209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987271399653590272.post-40938264691914062642010-06-17T18:23:39.918-04:002010-06-17T18:23:39.918-04:00Are you really using Ray Comfort's "Only ...Are you really using Ray Comfort's "Only an all-knowing being can make an absolute statement" argument? Because that works just as well for theism. Only an all-knowing God can know with absolute certainty that an all-knowing God exists, therefore neither you nor any other Christians know that God exists, therefore there are no Christians, as there are no Atheists.<br /><br />"But," you might say, "I believe there is a God wholeheartedly." Which, you know, is fine. But a belief is not absolute knowledge.<br /><br />Atheists believe that there is no God, just as you believe there is a god. We are not claiming absolute knowledge, we are simply making a judgment based on the evidence presented to us.<br /><br />Similarly, while you believe in the Christian God, you obviously do not believe in the Islamic Allah or the Jewish version of God, and probably not Papua New Guinean mud god, Pikkiwoki or any of the other cultural Gods. But, using your own argument, only an all-knowing being, such as any one of these Gods, can know for certain that they do not exist, so you therefore believe in all of them, even if you reject them.<br /><br />Think before you post poorly presented and tired out arguments next time, yeah?KatieLikeLovesYouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11169696192435820271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987271399653590272.post-67798147444809504322010-02-24T11:47:31.755-05:002010-02-24T11:47:31.755-05:00Panda,
