i have taken the bait myself in the past.. i think the correct answer is much more ordinary.
Vidqun - The following is perhaps the most outrageous lie in history of the internet...
For those that notice such things, sun is not coming up where it use to. The earth is 25 degrees or more out of kilter.
This is what happens when you are committed to seeing the fulfillment of "prophecy" at any cost.

The bible really would contain prophecies that could be verified using objective historical evidence. It wouldn't be necessary to rip verses out of context and interpret ambiguous phrases to try to make details fit post hoc.. - Cofty
Daniel warned of an impending “great tribulation” (Dan. 12:1). Jesus also referred to the Great Tribulation. If the days were not cut short, no flesh would be saved (Matt. 24:21, 22; Mark 13:20). Haggai warns: “Moreover, the LORD who rules over all says: ‘In just a little while I will once again shake the sky[1] and the earth, the sea and the dry ground’” (Hag. 2:6 NET; cf. Hebr. 12:26-29). - Vidqun
Vidqun, thank you for illustrating my point so eloquently.
alone, without my safety net of "god" being there to remember me when i die.
after much consideration, examining science, history and using logic, i have come to the conclusion that there is no "god" at least certainly no loving, personal "god.

My mother recently died......my father and elder brothers didn't even call me while she was in hospice......When I found out a month later, by only the sheer power of the Holy Spirit...... - Perry
Why did the holy spirit let you know a month too late?

I believe that in order to have a useful debate with somebody you should present their position in such a way that they would not want to correct it. From there you can discuss why you disagree.
You do the opposite of that every time.
I spend pages trying to correct your wilful distortions of my position and never make any progress on the actual conversation that matters.

There are just so many examples of strawman attacks, misrepresentations and distortions of my position every single time I engage with you.
I am convinced you are wilfully dishonest for reasons of your own self-aggrandisement. I have no interest in wasting time and energy trying to hold a conversation with you.

Fisherman - your bible knowledge is woeful.

The opneing post seems to demand a number of specific things from God in order for us to believe in him:
It does no such thing. I demand absolutely nothing.
Your reading comprehension skills are either very bad or you are just wilfully misrepresenting everything I say - yet again.

It's as if you go out your way to misunderstand and misrepresent my views at every opportunity.
I can't be bothered correcting your latest serving of disingenuous PoMo bullshit SBF.

Perry how typical of you to totally ignore every word of my OP and resort to generic rhetoric.
Anybody can copy- paste a list of links. I guarantee there won't be a single word in this links that could not explain even more clearly than you can.
Deal with the actual argument please.

Look for the evidence with your heart if you really want it - Fisherman
I have no idea what that means. I'm sure you don't either.
My "heart" says genocide and slavery is wrong. God's word says it's a moral good. What is a man to do?
There are arguably good reasons He doesn't prove His existence - Cold Steel
This is nothing but a bald assertion. Also, I didn't ask that there be "proof" of god's existence. What I said was, "If the god of christian theism did exist... it would be more difficult to reject the claims of christianity than to accept them".
