I do not believe anyone who truly believes in a god is ever going to accept that fact. You will not be able to prove it to that person, regardless of the facts you might present. As I had stated earlier, faith is based on acceptance without proven facts.
To someone who believes in a god, that god is as real as your vehicle, house, television, and excreta. Someone might be able to present all kinds of facts as to why these things do not exist, but obviously you can see them so they must exist. I insert that individuals who truly believe in a god are able to see them, in their own way. Therefore, you could never convince them that there god is not real.[/QUOTE]Homer, I am NOT trying to convince anybody that their God is not real ! How presumptuous would that be !
I don't know if a God exists or not. No, I only stated that in my opinion a scientist should accept that anything, I mean ANYTHING he currently thinks is true may be one day proven false by facts.
