Ultimately, regardless of where you stand on this issue, none of us can prove or dissprove GOD's existance.
For every cuddily puppy, there is a scorpion. For every beautiful sunset or water fall, there is a tornadoe, earthquake and hurricane. For every smile there is a tear, for every birth there is death. We can speak of the order in the Universe, yet it's littered with debris hurling thru space, comets, asteriods from objects dying out, exploding or running into each other. Yes it's wonderous, but far from looking like the handy work of all knowing,limitless intelligence who doesn't make mistakes. Or...dying stars, planets forming, asteriods belts are GOD's way of order.
While I find myself believing less and less in a GOD, I keep my eyes and ears open to the debate and appreciate the dialogue found here.
For me it currently comes down to two things, If you believe in a creator, then death,disease should be his to explain, if you don't believe, imperfection all around isn't a mystery. Our current condition based on Adam and Eve's actions still makes no sense at all, to me that is.
Secondly, I've asked myself if the Bible could of been written today and I keep coming back to... No.
It's funny, the Bible was written during a time when people would believe almost anything, It should of been written today with science and all the dialogue to prove or dissprove It's validity firsthand. Sadly and why we debate it, non of us were there.
Wouldn't all of us like to read about currents events that include new languages formed out of building a tower, the sea being parted to allow former slaves to escape or fire from the skies destroying cities and people turning into salt. Or Nephilim and Angels appearing, speaking or killing armies all by themself, just think of the debate then? This just in... Man walks on water.
There are two sides to every fence so this too will continue...
