Title: To Atheists and Agnostics: The futility of asking for physical evidence of God
Posted By: owinojesse 2009-09-24 01:56:31

So suppose somebody showed you God, a powerful deity in all his magnificence, sitting on your living room couch.Will you accept this as evidence?

How would you disprove the evidence, using available empirical methods?

A) You can't rely on the miracles the deity is performing, because;

1. No immediate scientific explanation for a miracle, means that either the scientific method is not as advanced yet, or there is not enough data to make a conclusion about your findings.

2.An existing scientific method can be used to recreate a similar miraculous occurrence. For example, its been proven that the introduction of some kind of electromagnetic field can create a feeling of a supernatural presence. Yet this does not negate the presence of the supernatural.

B) You can't rely on any known scientific method today to measure the presence of a deity. Why? This is simply because no one in history has ever gathered any scientific data on the physical manifestations of a deity. In fact no scientific method has been designed thus far to measure the physical evidence provided by any deity.

C) Even if you have the right scientific method, you would not know what to measure if you were shown a deity. An electromagnetic field? A gravitational change? How about a change in resistance?

D) You do not have any solid theories(putting aside the history of religion) on God. Is God made of matter? Antimatter? Does God have a body? How many dimensions does God have?

So even if someone came to you and said he/she is a god in human avatar, you wouldn't know what to do with the available evidence. Or would you?
