Would Atheists REALLY Believe if They got Proof w/ Michael Jones  

I love Michael, he is of good heart. He humbles himself and corrects himself and even admits how much that hurts... What an inspirstion ngl. God bless him !

0:36-0:40 evidence worked for me. After seeing the evidence I realized believing in God’s existence is the easiest thing ever. I would later find out that doing God’s will is the hardest thing ever.

When I was an atheist, I just wanted to believe what was true. Science seemed to be the best epidemiological tool, because I was raised without an understanding of faith. God, in His infinite mercy, answered the unspoken prayer of my heart & revealed truth: Himself. I later found out that many Christians had been praying for me. Please: pray for your atheists! The strongest apologetic for me was witnessing how my Christian friends loved me & lived their lives. It wasn't primarily, in the final analysis, the years of research into the evidence or the intellectual arguments, but the witness of the living Gospel in the lives of those who know Him. Love.🌹🙏

"Take a look at the evidence as objectively as you can. And accept that you can't." Beautifully said.

Too many faithful ppl cling to this nonsense idea that the only reason anyone wouldn't believe is willful rebellion. They refuse to acknowledge the fact that many people would rejoice if they knew God existed, wish He existed, but sadly don't think He does, and can't find a way to convince themselves. I think it just makes everything easier for many believers to impugn the motives of the nonbeliever, rather than wrestle with the real difficulty ppl genuinely have believing these things. The latter is inconvenient.

"If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead." -Luke 18 Sad but true 🤕 How many miracles do we have in the Gospels, history, and even modern day and yet people still brush it off? I'm shocked the Eucharist miracles aren't the FOREFRONT of the Church's evangelism! We don't like changing our minds. It can be hard! Christianity isn't a battle of knowledge. It's a battle of the heart. *Do you or do you not want to submit yourself to a higher power?* For whatever reason that might be. Abuse, corruption, cynicism, etc. You can give a PERFECT account, but it's not your fight. You've done your part. You planted the seed, now ask the Holy Spirit to water the person's heart. It's the Spirit's fight :)

I did, but before each level of proof I had a choice to demonstrate I was open enough to receiving the next step of evidence that I was wrong and willing to submit to the truth. In fact, I had previously become an atheist for the same reason, albeit lacking evidence I now have and leaning too much on my own understanding. So I do think many people, like me, can be atheist during a journey of genuine truth-seeking and I pray for these people and also for the hard hearted. I think the arguments are beside the point. We can point toward reality but the observer's honesty is more fundamental than what we generally consider peer-reviewable objectivity. We are real observing objects.

As an atheist, I agree that human psychology is incredibly complex and that if you could offer me objective undeniable proof of God, there's a possibility I could still not believe it. My question is how can I be blamed and condemned for my lack of belief if I am unable to override that part of my brain?

From personal experience: NO! As a self-proclaimed “convinced atheist” I mocked the religious and insisted I would believe if I ever encountered “evidence”. Then one day I had a supernatural encounter with the demonic in such a way that there could be no doubt (the things I learned and heard and saw I KNOW I had no prior knowledge of and turned out to be real, Occult related stuff). I got my precious “evidence”, the one thing I insisted would make me worship God, and it changed nothing. Actually it made my spiritual condition worse because I got into the Occult because of it. Atheism is an act of the will. I didn’t WANT God to exist. I found out the devil was real and my hardened heart preferred satan to God. I used reason to justify my decision. Do you think the spiritual state of most people who call themselves atheists (not agnostics) is any different? Yet God didn’t leave me to my sin but showed me the evil I was messing with for what it was. I didn’t deserve to be saved (none of us do). I eventually sought God again, eventually became a Christian, and eventually joined a Church- the Catholic Church. Fulton Sheen is spot on when he says: “As all men are touched by God’s love, so all are also touched by the desire for His intimacy. No one escapes this longing; we are all kings in exile, miserable without the Infinite. Those who reject the grace of God have a desire to avoid God, as those who accept it have a desire for God. The modern atheist does not disbelieve because of his intellect, but because of his will; it is not knowledge that makes him an atheist…The denial of God springs from a man’s desire not to have a God-from his wish that there were no Justice behind the universe, so that his injustices would fear not retribution; from his desire that there be no Law, so that he may not be judged by it; from his wish that there were no Absolute Goodness, that he might go on sinning with impunity. That is why the modern atheist is always angered when he hears anything said about God and religion-he would be incapable of such a resentment if God were only a myth. His feeling toward God is the same as that which a wicked man has for one whom he has wronged: he wishes he were dead so that he could do nothing to avenge the wrong. The betrayer of friendship knows his friend exists, but he wished he did not; the post-Christian atheist knows God exists, but he desires He should not.” -Fulton J. Sheen There is no such thing as atheism.

God was not hidden to the nation of Israel in the wilderness. They still disbelieved. Also, God was quite punitive for disbelief then. We are probably better off not offending God directly.

I think most atheists know God exists in their heart of hearts but would still oppose God even if they had definitive proof. They don't want to be accountable to anyone ...especially God. In this context, it's not a problem of the reason but of the will.

I don't care what anyone says but i believe in God and that's because i saw Mother Mary herself when i was at a young age . I guess you called it apparition.

It is impressive how in the gospel the ones that reject gos are his people, even he say’s with pain, the town where he came out did not believe in him, even though they were the ones with more evidence. Blessed those who believe without seeing.

What I get from this conversation is that it doesn’t matter what you tell Apologist like IP about why you reject their evidence, their arguments or their conclusions. To maintain their belief that the evidence is really good and to prevent cognitive dissonance they will simply assume that you reject the evidence for reasons that are independent of the quality of the evidence.

There is a difference between "not having evidence" and "not wanting evidence." Those who do not want evidence will always claim that there is none. This is the nature of personal bias. This is Atheism. What is the evidence of God? Literally everything in existence showcases the creative mind. Isaac Newton said, "In the absence of any other evidence, the thumb alone would convince me of God's existence." Nature has a lot more impressive artwork than the thumb. Perhaps a better question would be "can we objectively analyze the available facts without letting personal bias polute the conclusion?"

If Thor appears in front of you and many other people and show that he is real... say what you say, but you would believe in him.

When the foundation is "god created everything," you can always ask, "who's fault is that?" So if you say that people are resistant to changing their beliefs because the "lizard part" of the brain activates, who's fault is that? Who was it that designed humans again? If you have an answer that isn't "god did it," then I can just ask again, to that answer, "who's fault is _that?"_ Whatever rationalization you try to throw up, it will always come back to god, because _literally everything_ comes back to god. _That's _*_supposed_*_ to be the point,_ isn't it? Who decided what the consequences of a "fallen world" would be? Who decided that human brains would be too puny to even comprehend god? Who decided that the divine would be inaccessible to any objective kinds of investigation? Every problem, and every excuse, always _has_ to come back to god's decision to make things that way.

It's very even for Christians to still believe in Him. Most people wants to feel God, but God doesn't always work like that, most (if not all) of the time, you won't feel Him.

I saw a Netflix show “Messiah” which got me thinking like this! Now, assume for a min the main character WAS indeed the messiah, people STILL didn’t believe him!

Even with proof, they wouldn’t believe. Luke 16:31. “… they would not believe even if a man rises from the dead.”

I was an athiest and what made me believe in God was Jesus Christ his story.

How many people don't believe because they like their sins and don't want to believe there are any consequences for that? I know there are people who get quite upset when they are told they are sinners and the last thing they want is to spend time in a church where they are confronted with a message that tells them just that.

Well my lizard brain must be deactivated because I always change my views on even the most personal held beliefs, and I find it exciting to be wrong because it causes me to learn and increase my intelligence.

lol, always nice when someone tells other people, who he's never met, that he knows their minds better than they ever could... before claiming not to psychoanalyze anyone. Then, he contradicts his own argument by talking about his own experience regarding evolution. What utter garbage.

I did. I was a miraculous, on-the-spot convert from over 20 years of atheism, including years of activism with American Atheists. Jesus appeared to me after a TLM in an SSPX chapel, and then He performed a dramatic public medical miracle one minute later, proving that I hadn't just hallucinated. I had to change my mind and accept the truth on the spot. So, yeah. I loved the truth. True, though, that not all atheists do. But neither do all Catholics. Because a lot of people aren't going to like the following truth. Buckle in. God converted me at the SSPX. And this was AFTER He chose not to convert me at either the FSSP (Epiphany Vigil) earlier that week or at a regular Novus Ordo Sunday worship service/"Mass" the weekend before. I went to church for the first time in 20 years and visited the "reverent" NO I grew up in, but God didn't convert me there. Days later I checked out the cuck-sell-out FSSP out of curiosity. It wasn't awful like every NO, but God chose not to convert me there either. He chose to convert me the SSPX the following weekend, with a vision and a miracle that are a story one would never ever hear in a NO or FSSP. Pretty clear who He favors. The miracle was far more impressive than what was just used to beatify JP I, btw. I solemnly swear the above upon pain of Mortal Sin, before God and the entire heavenly court, and I call God as my witness. Given that, so God help anyone who dares to doubt the truth of my solemn testimony. And God help anyone who does not love the truth.

I believed Aquinas once said "With faith, no proof is nesscary. Without faith, to proof is possible."

"If you will not hear the truth, no one can tell you." - Claudia to Pontius Pilate in The Passion of The Christ.

"First, accept that you do want your current belief to be true." - absolute hogwash. Not everyone wants their current understanding of things to be true. Maybe he suffers from pride, but plenty of ppl think something is X when they wish it was Y.

I had a student once tell me "If Jesus Christ came from Heaven, appeared before me, and said 'I am God.,' then I would believe Him." I responded with "Not necessarily. Because He already did that, and we killed Him for it."

it’s a fair point though, because like what if you prayed and got a response? Then the simplest explanation is schizophrenia

Showed a friend the Eucharistic Miracles and still doesn’t believe.

my experience is that there are atheists who will say: 'There is no evidence'. I ask them: 'What evidence would you accept?' Then there is silence. They never really thought about it.

This is especially true for internet influencers. Most people don't want to accept that their biased, especially people who claim to "have no real position".

it really is a stupid idea that atheists have some prejudice against religion being true, i don't believe there is anything supernatural, but as a human i would have to be really dumb to say "it's impossible", if i got into an argument with someone about unicorns, i'm pretty certain that unicorns can't be found anywhere on earth, but to dismiss the possibility they can be found on arcturus would be extremely silly - i only bet on sure things. if you're an atheist and you are certain about anything, then you're not really aware of the scientific method, i'm happy to say god doesn't exist - in this universe, in this reality, in this part of the cosmos - god doesn't exist at all? how can i know that. same as a religist saying he does - as he's never put in an appearance then you can't say that god exists either. your "revelation" can be accounted for in any number of ways other than god. to say otherwise is lying to yourself.

It’s called cognitive dissonance

Trying to make peace with the fact that I am human and that means that I am de facto wrong on so many things, in so many ways has been the the most humbling factor in walking with God. I daily must forgive myself for being wrong and ask for grace not to hold it against God for being so.

Please have Nick Fuentes on! It would be such a great conversation.

eye roll

Great talk! Which book by Michael Licona is he recommending? The Case for the Resurrection of Jesus (2004) or The Resurrection of Jesus (2010)? The first seems like the best fit, but the second one looks like a continuation (?).

This was brilliant. I need to go watch the whole interview

I as an atheist would believe but not worship if it was truly the God of the old testament who is so jealous and had children killed by bears for calling a guy bald I would call him an immoral tyrant on my way to hell.

And thats just true facts people have reacted to this video literally making ur point true , man what have the society come to ,defending nihilistic views and no meaning to life and then they think that they are superior to the ones with meaning.

Would theists recognize that the things they are using as proof are not in fact proof if they are shown the evidence? Lol. I think it far less likely than vice versa

I don’t believe because I’m not convinced and every time I engage with theists, they either bring up fallacious arguments, follow a script, or they pretend they know what’s in my head better than me. I’m not convinced of your god and the fact your lot prefer to generalize why nonbelievers aren’t convinced of poor apologists talking points only fuels disbelief further. If neither you nor your hidden god cares enough to convince me, then why should I care?

I was an atheist who refused to listen to any "personal/miraculous" experiences that christians shared. I thought faith was superstitious nonsense. I only believed what I saw in the physical world around me, then I had an encounter with the living Christ which shocked my reptilian brain. I was filled with an unnerving urge had to find out who He was and what just happened but I was also frightened of knowing who He was because deep down I already knew it was Jesus.

I put this question to my atheist FB friends one If I could prove all of Christianity's claims were true , would you become a Christian I got 6 responses 4 basically said "no because God doesn't exist" (one clarified "because science" and another "because of all the gays that Christian's have stoned" 😳 ) 1 said "well I'd have to be I have a load of questions about why the world is so bad" 1 flipped the question "if I could prove he didn't would you become an Atheist?" His claim being that not believing in God, religion etc made one (or at least he felt had made him) a better, calmer, more compassionate person. I agreed I would be calmer because I'd be justified in caring less about things but that just someelse telling me that "just because you're an Atheist doesn't mean you don't care" and no amount of claiming that that wasn't what I was implying could convince him of that 🤷‍♂️

I find this very interesting. If it is an accepted fact that people have natural resistance to changing core beliefs that they associate with their identity; then surely damning people for lack of belief is even more counter-intuitive. It seems like the deck is being stacked against people who were born and raised outside of an explicitly Catholic setting, because the first time they encounter it might be after their "world view defences" are fully entrenched, and we know from psychology that we are hard-wired (literally born that way) to protect those pillar beliefs and the worldview they hold up. Likewise, this surely applies to the fact that I can present evidence for certain political or philosophical positions contrary to the ones that Matt and Michael hold, and they would dismiss that evidence in exactly the same fashion. I suppose the most honest thing I can say is "I hope that, should I be presented evidence of or have a personal encounter with Christ or such, I would have the intellectual honesty and fortitude to accept that, whatever it might mean."

Some of us would actually. And what y'all describe as miracles and divination would simple be natural science beyond our understanding. We aren't cynical, we're skeptical. Fantastical claims require fantastical evidence. And there is none. The bible like all other holy books are just great literature but a snapshot of humanities insecurities and imagination. We like answers, so we made stuff up until science caught up. It's easy now to come to this conclusion now after millennia of fumbling in the dark. But if I were born in 900 BC, illiterate and a cattle farmer or slave, I would have been a believer instead. Love your channel though. No hate.

Even if a person had proof God exists it does not mean they would follow him.

A dead man can do nothing. They can’t accept.

"No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them, and I will raise them up at the last day"

so why IP doesnt believe evolution anymore?

I got evidence and I started believed but it was over time and in multiple areas. I think people just need evidence in multiple areas and to dislodge multiple incorrect assumptions. Catholicism is a complex belief system- it's not really black or white. There are also emotional reasons where they hope that it is not true. Balancing the needs of the self vs society is difficult and catholicism may seem like a hopeless situation to some where additional coping and adapting skills are needed. Some ideas need time to digest.

Thank you.

who cares why god hides, why does satan hide is what puzzles me. all he has to do is say hello and bang goes free will and gods plan - god is such a weak character in this fight.

Who should decide what qualifies as compelling evidence for a god? I'm a Doctor of Atheism, so me, right? 🤣No! Our top scientists? Nuh uh. The Pope? Nope. I'll let any Xian decide! That's right! You say what you would accept as definitive, objective proof FOR - or short of that, rational justification for belief IN - a god _other than yours_ and we'll set that as the standard, 'kay? 🤣😎

the concept of salvation is incoherent tho

Mr. Jones you are brilliant thank you and may God bless you and yours

i wouldn't say im impartial but i struggled with the truth of Christianity as i had left but looking at the evidence i couldn't deny my lord

Don't you think a God could convince an atheist Instead of complaining about atheist you should try coming up with some proof to your claim

Somebody once said to me that the way you can tell what someone truly believes is for them to go through a life-or-death situation, or at least where they genuinely believe they may die, all I'm saying is that in the cut, how many of them look up?

J power enjoy ❤️ ohh it will last 7 days an 7 hours to the second could be long term it's always been yr choice..

I am still waiting to see Michael without a beard

Atheism is not the lack of knowing God existing. Rather is is the hope He doesn't exist". ~Bishop Fulton Sheen

The roman sun god was born december 25 th .. when Jesus was born their were shepherds grazing their sheep in nearby fields .. it snows in israel during winter. Jesus couldnt have been born in the December which is smack in the middle of winter .. christmas has a lot of pagan rituals .. plus Jesus never preached Christianity.. he said if you believe in Him you receive power to become children of God not a christian. You come into the kingdom of God not yoi come into the christian religion. The bible is about God, His kingdom and His children. Not about a religion called Christianity or judaism

Is Michael Jones willing to believe Allah if got proof? He is just projecting his own behavoir onto others.

This is some next level cope about not having any good evidence! This is, "I totally have a girlfriend but she lives in Canada" except for theism lol. The fact is that he knows there is no good evidence or we would all know it already. It's pathetic that these people have to be so incredibly childish rather than just grow up and acknowledge magic isn't real.

How I feel with defending my LDS faith. 😂

Mike is such a liar and a charlatan. He doesn’t use these studies about brain activity to better himself and try to make sure he’s accounting for his own resistances and biases. He uses them to add to the wall he puts between himself and objectivity. His response to reading a study about brain activity isn’t “oh, I should make extra sure I don’t fall into this trap.” It’s “oh, so _everyone else_ who disagrees with me is just biased and resistant to the truth.” That’s why he cries when he gets something as small as a fact about exodus wrong. Like he said in the video, he doesn’t want to believe true things, he wants the things he believes to be true. He’s diving headfirst as hard and fast as he can into being biased and resisting outside information.

That's true that it really doesn't matter how much evidence you show people. The Israelites themselves witnessed all of the plagues of Egypt and were saved from extermination by having the Red Sea open up for them and wash away Pharaoh's Army behind them. Even with all that, within weeks they wanted to go back to Egypt and accused God of wanting them to die.

I always say to atheists: “So. You believe all this _just happened_ ? That is so difficult to believe. How do you do it?!”

Not necessarily : After Jesus rules for 1000 years, the nations He ruled over will be deceived by satan and will rebel.

All this effort in a God that is a no effort God, doesnt even have the time to show up and ring the bell, and yet the Scientific Method has voluminous works and proofs that explain itself and put forth the progress of humanity. Meanwhile Christians be like... "If you only you JUST BELIEVE". Cry more.

That's why man speak, but it is the Holy Spirit that converts. Great chat with two great mates, IP and PWA.

Whenever I hear of a nonbeliever asking for evidence or asking for proof I think of the Lord at the crucifixion and those present telling Him to come down from the cross and they will believe. Most of them did not have a hopeful inquiring heart. Theirs was a mocking heart. Many people don't want to believe. They would be immediately dismissive of evidence without giving it serious consideration.

“Would Atheists REALLY Believe if They got Proof” brought to you by two people who believe without proof. At some point apologists need to understand that just because some piece or pieces of evidence acts as sufficient proof for you, it might not be for others. And further, the reason you might take it as proof is because you want the thing you believe to be true. So, just as you can psychologize about why atheists might not “want” to believe in God or are fleeing from God to justify your own belief, it’s just as easy to make the case from the other side that theists want to believe in God and so find proof in nearly anything.

probably not the best foresight to make a religion based off of belief in a proposition, then

what is up with this guy's voice?

This is very arrogant, there are many people in the world that would hope God existed, but truly can’t accept it based on the evidence we’ve been provided. I can understand this opinion, but to state it so aggressively is a mistake, in some sense it’s more an ad homonym attack

God exists. Creation is real. Science confirms this. There is empirical evidence written in our DNA that proves the one true Living God. I recommend reading the book The Code of Creation: The Seal of the Living God.

No, God's existence couldn't be more evident. God is an intangible being, without form, beginning or end. He isn't a being that can be detected by the natural senses or by natural means, if that is what people are erroneously going by. He is spirit and only those who seek him find him, and only those who live spiritual lives will experience him, unless he is seeking you out for some specific reason. But even then he knows who will be responsive to his call. Nobody stumbles upon God, and no one goes to heaven or hell by accident. God created us to mirror his own nature, meaning we are also spiritual beings with rational minds. We have enough within us to know he exists by logic and reason. Incidentally, although God cannot be detected through natural means, he did actually become a man and has offered us plenty of proof in the natural sense also. But they don't want to believe that either. And why? Because they suppress the truth in unrighteousness. They choose sin, the pleasures of 'this' world and the pursuits, ambitions and fascinations of this life instead of seeking God and his kingdom. This is why they can't see, why they can't perceive, why they can't rationalise with the logical mind God gave them his 'obvious' existence.

There are two different languages. There is the language of the atheist and there is the language of Yahweh. There is no communication between the two because the atheist does not want to communicate in the same way that Yahweh wants to communicate. For example, Yahweh says, “Let us reason together, though your sins be as scarlet...” (Isaiah 1:18). The first thing on Yahweh's lists for discussion is your sin. However, for the atheist that topic is the last thing on the list. Also, it's not what you believe in, it's about what you love (Mark 12:33). The atheist's remedy to explain all his theories and to discredit the Genesis story is to add the construct of billions of years. But on the other hand, everything in Genesis is created in its adult form from the beginning. The trees, the animals, mankind are all created in their adult form. That also includes the universe. And an adult universe would and should appear to be billions of years old. Atheist do not understand that consciousness is not a chemical formula which could ever be created in a lab. When we talk about the elements we are talking about our experience of the elements through the miracle of consciousness. I would agree that the churches today are defective. In fact, the Apostle Paul pronounced a curse on most churches today because the main Christian denominations of today preach a different gospel than what Paul preached. To quote exactly what Paul said, “But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.” (Galatians 1:8). Both apostle Paul and Peter preached the same gospel and quote from the prophet Joel (2:32) saying, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of Yahweh shall be saved." (Romans 10:13 and Acts 2:21). The English translations say “Lord” instead of “Yahweh.” But “Lord” does not translate “Yahweh” it is a substitution of a totally different word altogether. This substitution activates two additional curses because if you substitute a word you are both adding and subtracting at the same time. “For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” (Revelation 22:18, 19) We are commanded by Messiah that, “...repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.” (Luke 24:47). In other words, we are supposed to preach the gospel that came out of Jerusalem and not preach the gospel that came out of Antioch, or Rome, or England, or New York, or Chicago, etc. By the time the gospel got to Antioch it had already been perverted as we read, “...And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.” (Acts 11:26). The problem with this is that YHWH spoke of a people called by His name (Deuteronomy 28:10; 2 Chronicles 7:14; Isaiah 43:6, 7; Daniel 9:19; Amos 9:12; Acts 15:17). YHWH did not choose the name “Christian” for Himself. The people of Antioch chose that name and all the so called main denominations of today embrace that name “Christian” for themselves. When Peter and Paul preached the gospel they quote the prophet Joel, “Whosoever shall call on the name of YHWH shall be saved.” (Joel 2:32; Acts 2:21; Rom. 10:13). I ask you, how many of the church fathers and so called main denominations of today preach that gospel? None of them. Absolutely none! Paul makes it very clear that the end result of him preaching the gospel was that the people would call on the name YHWH. He says in (Rom. 10:14,15), The preachers are sent. They preach. The people hear. The people believe. The people call on the name YHWH (Rom. 10:13). I ask you, how many of the church fathers and so called main denominations of today preach that gospel? None of them. Absolutely none! It took only one generation after the death of Joshua for the children of Israel to forget the mighty works of YHWH which He had worked through Moses and Joshua and to began to serve the idols of the people around them (Judges 2:7-13). It took only one generation. .....

There were people in the Bible who actually witnessed Jesus's miracles and still denied him.

"They have Moses and the Prophets. If they do not believe them, they won't believe a man, even though he be raised from the dead!" - Jesus Christ

We're all atheists. You don't believe in 9,999 gods, I don't believe in 10,000. Just one more- _your_ god. If you, as an atheist with regards to Allah, saw proof that Allah was real, would you believe?

God is NOT a concept.

I suspect that asking whether someone believes the proposition "God exists" might be the wrong starting point. What matters is faith in Christ, and I don't think that comes down to a proposition either, because Abraham had it long before he had any chance of understanding the meaning of the proposition, "Jesus died on the cross to save us from our sins." Faith in Christ, I suspect, is faith in the Logos - the conviction that the cosmic order acts for our good and that our existence within it is worth our participation in its cross. To believe the prepositions without faith of that sort is to believe a demonic doppelganger is God, which is worse than just being an atheist both for one's own soul and because of the worse consequences such a mistaken understanding of God would bring down upon the world as a whole. In other words, the stubbornness of atheists is actually a good thing, because there's no one more dangerous than someone who believes that God supports their campaign against the Logos.

I find that the epistemology of most atheists wouldn’t allow for a belief in God.

Jesus's parable of Lazarus and the Rich Man shows us that even raising the dead doesn't always result in having to believe. In the end it's a choice.

He's gonna cry again because the earth is flat and stationary.

I don't have to ask if Christians will believe without proof.

Your gospel isn’t the gospel of the Bible. Yours is the Gospel according to Rome. The Bible isn’t from Rome, it’s from God. Rome is God in your religion. Your Jesus needs other mediator and my Jesus is The way, The truth and The life! No one comes to the Father but by Him in my Jesus! Your Jesus allows other ways in, like praying the rosary! ““Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbs up some other way, he is a thief and a robber. But he who enters by the door is a shepherd of the sheep. To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he brings all his own out, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice. A stranger they will never follow, but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.”” ‭‭John‬ ‭10‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭LSB‬‬

I don’t understand what’s wrong with believing in what we want

See Mister Deity for an appropriate response to this video.

Such "proof" does not and CANNOT exist!!
