Much is made about no proof of God. I can’t observe something, then it can’t be real. Science, don’t you know.

We believe in electricity but cannot observe an electron. We can predict it, but not observe it. Is electricity a hoax? No

We believe in gravity, but cannot observe the gravitational pull mechanism. Does gravity exist? Yes

It is a rule of physics that matter cannot be created nor destroyed. Yet everything came from something. The Big Bang does not answer this. The matter from the explosion had to come from somewhere or this basic rule of physics is incorrect. If someone can explain this, I have not heard a reasonable explanation yet.

What about time? When did time start? Be interested to hear how time just came to be.

There are many things in science that are believed because of predictability, not through observation.

I believe that both can coexist. Even Einstein deeply believed in God.

I personally spent a lot of my life as an agnostic, but that is the easy path. Not in one camp or the other. Once I opened my self to the existence of God and opened my mind to asking God to help guide me I have seen a remarkable change in my life. Now people will say that is psychological and not God. Not true! I cannot count the number of times that my prayers have been answered. Not just simple coincidences, but direct pleas that are answered.

I expect to be ridiculed and I am fine with that. I have faith in science and God.

I just ask that before responding negatively please answer the mysteries above
Are you able to provide the specifics of how god answered your prayers and why it couldn’t have possibly been a coincidence that you prayed for an outcome and it occurred? Basically you’re saying there was divine intervention at play here so the specifics should help prove your point to anyone who disagrees with you.
