Originally posted by 667joeI will actually try to answer your question at least for me why I indirectly believe in a god. I see design in the universe. You see a painting but not the artist yet you know an artist painted it. (I know that is simplistic) I can also say some direct knowledge of god although I have never heard god speak to me with a voice. I've prayed to him and have had answers to those prayers. No joke! You would be right to say can I prove god's existence directly I would say no. There will be a day when this will no longer be true. How do we know about anyone that was a historical figure in the past ? Prove to me that Abraham Lincoln lived? Prove to me that the ancients lived? Prove to me that millions of electrons flow through copper wire to provide me with light. I think there is a certain amount of faith that must be exercised to live in this world.
If god is so powerful, why can't we verify his existence directly. Everyone who believes in god today is taking other peoples' word(s) for it. Given that people often are in error reporting on current events, why should we believe people from 2000 or more years ago especially when it is likely many were acting in there own self interest.

Even in the past, the only one who came close to his comic genius was RBHILL.

You don't believe in evolution because noone was there witnessed it?
And yet you believe blindly in the creation, even though noone was there before Adam?
Now look here who's dumb...

so the reason you are dismissing the earth being 4.6 billions of years is because nobody gave any written records since then?
write when? when the earth was an amorphous blob of super heated star leftovers? when it didn't have any oceans? how about when the biggest creature was a virus?
humans have a less than 100000 year history. and only when they ...[text shortened]... the need to record things. as in written. the paintings in the caves are much older than that.
I am telling you that if evolution was at all true, there would be two things that would stand out to proof this stupid theory...
1. There would have been billions and billions of fossils
2. We would have been extremely far in technology (far beyond a nano age)
Now to answer the questions myself...
1. Some fossils are found maybe daily, and we can not even tell with our technology of today the age of any fossil, not even can our technology even tell the age of a tree.
2. Our technology is evolving each day, but if you look at what we have achieved in the past few years, it really ain't that much of a wow. We are not even close to nano technology and there has been some claims of people developing stuff claiming its is nano technology, but how would the world really know.
Evolution proofs to be wrong and the big flaw is that it claims that everything came out of nothing - now that really is dumb.
I have just lately watched the DVD series of Dr Kent Hovind - I bet some of the evolutionist will rethink evolution once they have watched is too, he explains it best and really good. Watch it, all of it before you make comments.

Originally posted by NickstenI am really thankful that you are not in a position of authority. Where did god (if it exists) come from? The usual answer of theists is that god was always here. But, if god could have always been here, why can't the universe have always been here. Or the other side of the coin, if everything requires a beginning, what was responsible for the beginning of god?

Nicksten, why would we have billions of billions of fossils? We're lucky to even have them and preserved. It's not exactly an easy process, considering life is biodegradable.
And why would we have higher technology? You have start somewhere and we're progressing towards greater technology. I mean, relatively speaking (evolution wise) we just hopped out of the trees for goodness sake. I don't see why there's a specific timeline for rate of technology.

God's power is directly seen in all that exists. How can one look into the night sky and not say to himself, "how did all this come into existence"?
The answer doesn't come from man.
