And if your personal algorithms from family, environment, location, life experiences along with understanding of them all, along with a bigger world out there not realized by you maybe could have created a false reality in your mind?
You could place this question mark over every single one of us, including you and me.

I have put both questions and accretions to you and you disappear and don’t engage.
"Accretions"?

Things formed or added by gradual growth or increase.

What you hold to be absolutely true originates from your subjective speculation about supernatural things. And now you insist that all your "accretions" are absolutely true as well?

Yes, the water in your fishbowl is finally clear. On a human level shouldn’t this understanding of one another give us all more acceptance, love, and compassion for one another? Basic common ground for more peace instead of lashing out to crush in all directions for our in most cases uncontrollable differences? Then we would see the love of God shine through for all to see, my opinion.

Having this viewpoint, and then supporting certain people in society having their rights stripped from them is the epitome of hypocrisy.

But don't you live in a fishbowl too? Do you have convincing reasons to assert that the water I move through is not as clear or clearer as yours?

As is the case with many Muslims and Jews, of course, millions and millions of Christian supporters of the Abrahamic God exhibit way too little acceptance, love, and compassion for one another ~ quite the opposite, in fact. Do you exhibit acceptance, love, and compassion in your posting on this website and the things you say to people with whom you do not share the same beliefs?

When it comes to "lashing out to crush in all directions", you should perhaps [1] first take a look at yourself and some of the things you say egged on by your disinhibition, and [2] tackle your fellow Christians about their propensity for "lashing out to crush in all directions". Then, given your example, perhaps some non-Christian people might be drawn to the message of "acceptance, love, and compassion" that you seem to think you propagate.

Does "the love of God shine through" your demeanour and posting record here "for all to see"?

I don't know what you're on about here, but I've been around the 'bigger world out there' enough to understand that no religion has any more or less validity than any other, all of them are important for the people who practice them. I'm not 'brainwashed', 'conditioned' or however else one may put it into thinking or believing that the way I was born and raised (as a Christian) is the only way to be, and since I've had the capacity to think for myself I've not nailed my underpants to the mast of any creed or religion.

I only 'disappear' because I have other things to do beside reading or contributing to these forums. The only 'fact' that matters here is the fact that you cannot prove the existence of your particular god.

Never said I could so why is that important? Facts don’t change with new information they are better understood and confirmed. Opinions can change on a dime and people from time to time can hold conflicting points of view at the same time about the same thing. You disappearing is convenient for you not having to defend your beliefs, it keeps you free to insult, ridicule, move on as if those types of things matter.

You have trotted this out umpteen times. Your opinions are just your opinions. You seem to think that saying "Facts don’t change with new information they are better understood and confirmed" somehow adds weight to the subjective beliefs that constitute your faith.

Only by your comments, it’s hard to swim through through the currents you churn of hate and putting people down.
