I have a confession to make...

Nope. Maybe that's the thing? A LONG time ago, I set aside certainty...I think it was right after Super Bowl XVIII...

Plus, my best friend is a psycho crazy man engineer that is into quantum and multi world theory for entertainment PLUS he believes in god. Not the Organized Religion one but, a supreme being, so, I've been immersed in questioning everything since we became pals 36 years ago. :buddies:

I have a reason to be certain. I've seen the signs. I don't mean the signs that are all pointed out in the Bible. I'm talking about signs that were just for me, and I'm not going into it any more than that.

I don't think you're friend is so psycho-crazy. Just because one believes in God, doesn't mean that man has not figured out how to do things that most of us would think impossible. Just because we don't know it's happening, doesn't mean it's not happening.

I can't imagine the type of proof that would cause me to change my opinion, but I have to admit that people who do have religious faith do seem to be happier people.

I say that with affection; not truly psycho. He says the same things; signs he's seen and sees. And that just because we're not aware doesn't mean it's not real.

I get that. :buddies:

Anyone who has been on this site for a while probably knows that I have been a devout atheist for some 20 odd years, or at least that I have been an atheist.

I've had some things happen in my life recently that has shown me that I have been wrong.

So, if my posts are a little out of character, that's why.

God bless us all.

I'm right there with you. The past 30 days have been life changing for me and I have encountered certain "signs" as well. Truth is, I believe these "signs" have been with me the whole time. I either chose to ignore or was oblivious to them. I considered myself agnostic w/ shades of atheism all of my life until recently. Figuring it out for me was all too simple. You don't have to put a face to God or even understand it. God is Love. Nice to hear about someone else experiencing something so similar. Very comforting.

:faint:

ok..I am staying on the floor the rest of the day....
 
Just had an odd thought... what if someone had the opposite realization, and announced they were now atheist ?

Would there be multitudes of people saying, "I'm so happy for you!!! Congratulations!!" ??


I'm thinking not.....

let us stop for a moment .... signs just for YOU, how awesome is that !!!


Matt. 22:14 "For many are called, but few are chosen."

Rev. 3:20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.
Psalm 34:4 I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears.
