Stop lying.

My question is where is the evidence. I am constantly investigating.

You know this. You know that if you provide decent evidence of the existance of somethoing like God I will be fascinated. You know this. Who do you think believes your lies? I don't, nobody else will consider them reasonable. So it must be lying to yourself. Stop iit you are damaging your own sanity.

You and I will agree that the Zoranastrionists have it wrong. They believe as much as you do.

When I debate with somebody and we are able to exhange with honesty and frankness then I know we are both not lying. We might have a difference of ideas or opinion but I know I am not being lied to.

When people are evaisive or they simply will not change their argument after obvious information showed them that that bit was wrong last time or a host of similar brick wall tactics I know they know they have no argument.

You know this as well.

I am not the one making unsupported claims. I just want you to back up your assertions. It you said 'I believe' that would be one thing. But you assert a belief as a fact.

NOBODY (least of all me) knows for certain what God is, much less whether or not it tangibly exists.

I don't prefer labels. They're used as mechanisms to generalize others by those in this forum who favor rejecting logic. I prefer instead to describe my beliefs as I have done so for your benefit.

It's called "faith" for a reason, and thus no certainty involved. The only thing that is certain are the assertions that people know what God is, and that it exists; but such strong and emotional feelings have nothing to do with certainty.

Faith is not a reason, faith is the TRUST in something, belief stems from evidence and seeing it

Trust is not certainty; same thing. Believers think they know. They know they believe. But they don't know for certain.
