| May 9, 2021 at 17:47 | comment | added | Nelson Alexander | I am wondering how one would claim, demonstrate, communicate, or even state these proofs without recourse to the senses? Such appeal to the evidence of the senses is built into the discussion from the very beginning. Or at least this is the "modern" paradigm since roughly Bacon. To prove that God exists by appeal to the authority of the Bible is still an appeal to experience and to the accounts of the experiences of witnesses. It is a matter or how this material "evidence" is to be organized and repeated to provide intuitive agreement. Finding ways to disagree is never a problem. | |

While unlikely, the existence of a coexisting unknown hominid in our recent past is possible, though increasingly unlikely in modern mapped & satellited times. There's an account of what seems to have been a woolly rhino being loaded on to a train in Siberia only a century and a half ago - best candidate for unicorns, apparently they scooped waterholes in the steppe that others could drink from, getting their association with purifying waters. Fossils & frozen bodies are extremely rare. The cases remain open. | |

Why would we assume there is a supernatural reality in the first place? In order for me to assume anything about the supernatural, I would have to first be convinced that it exists. Also I think you are missing the point that you, as a believer, need to convince people of the existence of the supernatural (assuming you want them to believe like you do. But if you don't then why care at all?) you need to provide arguments to change their mind. Telling them they have to prove you are wrong won't work. | |
