If I am honest, since leaving I have tried to gain an education in the university of life. I wouldn't say I have majored in it, in fact I have failed on quite a few assignments, but I am enjoying the education.

i am curious if my observations are correct.
i noticed alot of exjws end up majoring in the social sciences.
i am also interested in what educational choices people have made either while fading or while completely out.

however, i haven't found any evidence to support that belief.. have you?
if so please, show me the evidence that god exists, and i will believe along with you.. criteria:.
(1) you must specify which god you are talking about;.
Sorry folks back again with my conclusion on the thread.
I do not believe in a God, and I feel no one has managed to make a convincing argument that he exists to me. I am not saying that God, CAN not exist, neither am I opposed to the idea of the supernatural, although I am pretty sure the world was not created by an omni-potent and omni-benevolent entity and I disagree with the notion that there has to be a God because something cannot become out of nothing or similar arguments.
OK bottom line, I believe no one can prove Gods existence at THIS MOMENT in time ( except himself theoretically) and even if there is an omnipotent monothestic creator, diety of some kind, there is no reason to believe one person over another when it comes to the nature of that said entity.
Thats my personal position based on the thread, and thanks for the insightful comments.

Outlaw :- Threads like this have been done before,....No one ever comes up with " Solid proof of Gods Existence" ....Ever.
The Rebel :- Agreed, but they do give some people an opportunity to make a fool of themselves. :-)

Qcmbr (Q)" is it possible to make some stand out points from the History of Cathalisiam? I won't be reading it I am afraid even if it is a worthy endeavour.
The Rebel (A) Sorry " Qcmbr" I was joking, but if I had Belottis 47 volumes of "History of Cathalisim" ( which I don't because they don't exist) they would remain on my bookshelf unread, as I hope I have better things to do with my time :-)

Well the O.P was always going to create an explosive thread. Yet it's basically a matter of FAITH & BELIEF, for those who believe in God, no proof/ explanation is necessary. For those that don't believe in God, no proof/explanation is not a satisfactory answer. However maybe the trick is not to take things so seriously and try to get along?
The Rebel.
p.s if anyone is really interested in "proof of Gods existence" may I reccomend you read Belottis, 47 volumes of " History of Catholicism" It not cheap but if you are down to your last £547.17pence, buy it , you won't regret it.

instead of being ignorant read the bible and get the answers.
you are not worshiping people you should weork towards woirshiping god.
Having my book " How do you measure up as a lover" ridiculed on Amazon, I can fully understand the disappointment of bad reviews. On chapter one of my book " How do you measure up as a lover" I asked this important question.
When you go out on that so important first date with a girl what do you look at first?
1. Her Eyes
2. Her Hair
3. Her Teeth
4. Her Husband
I followed this up with other challenging questions i.e. Chapter 80 which asked, " When you meet a girl on a first date do you give her:
1.flowers
2. Chocolates
3 . One
Now I thought these thought provoking and helpful questions, would get good reviews,
Other chapters asked these challenging questions " Do you believe in holding hands before marriage" and " Do you know where deodorant comes from? So I had hoped I would have got me on the best seller list. Sadly to recite one of my Amazon negative reviews " I put it to you that you are a virgin, and nothing more than a disgusting evil-minded creep" Well the review may be true, but if anybody wants a personal signed copy of my book " How do you measure up as a lover?" it's yours absolutely free, because I have 10,000 of them taking space in the garage.

Thank you for the reply Cofty.
Cofty : (A) "We could but would it not be easier just to dispense with the word God?
The Rebel: (A) " We could but doesn't that then avoid answering the question?
Cofty: ( A) you would have to say a lot more to define " all persuasive wisdom" and " indestructible nature of reality and life"
"Both these phrases seem to luck substance "
The Rebel ( A) I would define " all persuasive wisdom" as wisdom that cannot exist without facts. Now to my understanding a fact is something that exists or has happened, so we are no further forward, because if God exists that is a fact, even if it can't be proven.
Personally I won't deny the existence of God, because this debate has been going on for centuries without proof either way, instead I would rather focus my attention on myself, and to understand how I can make a positive impact on my neighborhood.

Thank you for quoting me Outlaw, but not to derail the Cofty, Outlaw despute, I did feel my question on my last post about " proof of Gods existence" warranted a reply....if I do get a reply to my question I feel it's more on topic.
Its a shame that sincere questions get lost in the shuffle of a thread, but then again I may have assumed my question was an important question, now what was my question again, as I've forgotten?
Oh Yes, I remember " Could I therefore assume that if we all define God as all persuasive and existing wisdom, that God is the indestructible nature of reality and life, then could we not agree there is scope for accepting God?
Ok my question may be stupid, in fact it probably is stupid, but nevertheless I feel it's a valid question, based on my early studies of trying to find an answer to the O.P " proof of Gods existence" from a Buddhist perspective.
The Rebel:- who would be the envy of all his friends if he could proove God either exists or doesn't exist :-)
