So I was thinking of the ole question of what would change your mind about god.
I came down to two things, that though wouldn't change my mind to holy fuck yes there a god, but probably shift me from de facto atheist.
A data sheet that can't be misinterpreted, be it book, movie, play. What ever language it was translated into, it would be perfectly translated by whoever did the translation. Even if you play alta vista babel fish telephone, it will always be the same. All backgrounds, all parts of the world would read this information the same and come away with the same thing.
You can throw in some science truth in there too.
The other is a viable animal that has no genetic materiel.
What would connivence the other none delusional?
I would be convinced by millions of things.
1. The stars are realligned tommorow to spell "god is here".
2. God comes down from the heavens and starts smiting people.
3. If I can see or measure anything that even remotely suggests a god.
4. If I am able to perform amazing miracles myself, due to someone else (this is crucial. Seeing other people doing them isn't good enough. David Copperfield can perform "miracles".
All of these things are easily within god's infinite power, and they would convince almost anyone of the existance of a god. So why doesn't He do it?
Even if I were somehow convinced of the existance of Yahweh and Jesus, then I see no reason to worship them. Both are simply threatening me with violence to worship them, and I feel that I would not want to compromise my morals just to suit these two (or one, I don't care) bigots. Believers talk of atheists having to beg for forgiveness from god, but what kind of sick, twisted, non dwarven being forces people to beg for their own souls just for using their logic?
