William James Philosopher/Psychologist writes "Any attempt to demonstrate by an intellectual process to the deliver the truth to God 's existence is impossible. Science establishes no beliefs it only destroys old ones.

The gods we stand by are the gods we need and use, the gods whose demands on us are reinforcements of our demands on ourselves and one another. Most require a more personal God

The role of religion, is not its consideration of logic but the role it has played in that mysterious entity known as human nature which is itself outside the realm of reason.

I remain neutral. I remain a bystander"

Like I said I don't know?


PS I hope we have many more substantive discussions like this one
I agree! VPL posed a sincere question - "If our body is a temple for God, how come I don't recall any religious people on the health board promoting a healthier lifestyle?" and so far I have not seen any sincere responses. I have seen attacking the poster and dismissing the topic without response. Instead, I'd like to see people respect and respond to the question!
