[When pressed to give non-believers sound proof of God's existance]
OK, here you go:
1) Jesus proved his authority by his resurrection from the dead.
2) Jesus affirmed that the Lord made all of creation.
= Therefore, everything is proof of God.

I'm reading the rest of that thread, and it's really sad... so much blind Christian blathering on "truth," "light," and other such hypnopaedic mumblings.
Problem, the resurrection of Christ has never been empirically proved and it´s not meant to be. Again, MATTER OF FAITH, and unintentional humor for non-believers.
Goody! now you just have to prove that:
1. Jesus existed.
2. God exists.
3. The words of Jesus were properly recorded and remain unaltered by time, political manipulation, copy error or mistranslation.
4. The words of Jesus were truthful and correct.
And you can't use the Bible.
Have fun!
1) Jesus proved his authority by his resurrection from the dead.
Can you prove that he rose from the dead? Didn't think so.
I can prove the existence of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. How? He once created a fifty-foot-long noodle. Praised be His Noodly Appendage, RAmen.
Hey, makes as much sense as this guy's "proof".
One could say the same thing about Osiris. In fact, Osiris is quoted as saying, "I am the life! I am the resurrection" long before the Jesus myth was coined. What makes your myth more credible than the myth of Osiris?

Okay. Very good. Now, how about making this 'God of yours actually appear to everyone, in hard, solid, physical form? Even if he was the cliche'd image of an old man in long robes and white hair & a beard - even if he was the size of Galactus? Or just him looking like Morgan Freeman (he'd look cool like that, IMO), just as long as he could also demonstrate he is who he says he is, via demonstrations of his power to our satisfaction. Surely it wouldn't be beyond his means to do so, Linux98.
...oh, and speaking of such, do you realise that Linus Torvalds, the inventor of Linux, is an Atheist?
So, where's your sound proof of Jesus' existence?
1. Harry Potter also came back from the dead.
2. J K Rowling created everything in his world.
= Therefore, everything is proof of Dementors.
1) His resurrection proves his authority, sure, but what proves His resurrection? (Note: the answer to this question is unknown)
2) If the previous question's answer is "nothing", you lose, good day sir, and all that. If the previous question's answer is "some manuscript that right now is in the ground and is not dug up yet", then you are right. But since the answer is currently up for debate, this is not proof at all.
Confused?
