...amongst us? Its 4 paragraphs so this might scare illiterate people, click the back button right now if your brain cant handle the overload.
If I told my doc I read a book that told me how the earth came to be and I started worshiping a guy named 'Ping'. I feel 'Ping' in my soul and he talks to me, and when I die I will finally meet 'Ping' and live with him forever. Upon hearing this my doctor would think I am crazy or delusional since I cant separate fact from fiction. Yet still millions of Christians do it everyday but they are considered sane.
Atheists dont believe in God because they never saw him and there is no proof that he exists. The human brain was actually made to operate like this, hence the reason we have 5 senses. If none of your senses can detect something then it might not be there.
eg, you can touch a car, hear it, see it, taste it (if you want), and you can smell a car. So the car is real. Now we know gravity is real because we can feel it although we cant see it, we may not be able to apply all our senses but one is enough. we feel gravity every time we jump or go on a roller coaster so we know its real. astronauts can vouch for this better since they have been to space and back. I know some sarcastic person will bring up air, but the last time I checked you can feel the wind and wind is comprised of air.
Christians believe in God and the bible because........well I dont really know but they have lots of weird reasons. I heard things like miracles, free will, holy spirit, 'he spoke to me', 'he put thoughts in my mind'.....etc. But none of these things cant be proven, sure you may think you felt Jesus but can you get a stranger to feel him as well? same goes for seeing, hearing, tasting and smelling. So stating that you know God is real makes you somewhat crazy, your mind is not working properly because its not using your senses to come up with a conclusion. Just imagine a person walking into a kitchen with his eyes closed and nose covered. He then says 'there is a bowl of cereal on the table', how is this person not crazy or deluded? A sane person would use his eyes, hands, nose and tongue to determine if there is cereal on the table or not.......its just the human thing to do.
Christians refuse to use logic, instead they use something called 'faith'. Faith makes them believe in things that they know are impossible. Any christian would run at the sight of a talking serpent but yet still they dont think the story is ridiculous when they read it in the bible. If a christian mother heard her virgin daughter got pregnant she would never believe it, but yet still faith makes the virgin Mary believable. So a christian is crazy believe it or not, their brains dont function correctly. A 6 years old has more logic than a grown christian, but we all know that 6 year old is gonna get brainwashed and hop right in the 'bible belt' where logic is not allowed. Then that child grows up into believing God and the cycle goes on
