Well believe it or not, oblivion to some maybe the preferred choice, given some people's rejection of God or the idea of God and rejecting all ultimate accountability. See, no matter what you present before me, whose book says this or whose book says this and this person says the bible is false and this is their idea of proof and this new age guru has ALL the answers etc etc. Cannot do much to disprove the fruits of the bible and God's word that has so far, not failed regardless of time or the attacks but continues to live in men's hearts, showing itself in many fruits around the world.

Mans' word however is not so steadfast and is prone to failure time and time again. The bible is also a personal test, rather than simply believing in a "book". The words on the pages are inspired we believe by the Holy spirit and it is more than a mere "book" to us. How about the testing in ones own life? Does that not apply? How about miracles? Can you so easily explain them away when even doctors are often mystified? The impossible is done because nothing is impossible with God. There have been proofs with xrays, medical examinations/certificates etc. But that doesn't even compare with conversions and incredible changes of life. People cripped by drugs, criminal behaviours, abuse etc, trying everything and getting nowhere and finding God and being healed of their addiction or damage readily and completely, rather than suffering long term side effects and the continuation of cravings.

Tell me, can you explain to me the public miracle I was witness to in 1996 overseas as being "mass hallucination or delusion"? Since you were not there and I was, this is something no atheist will ever be able to remove from my life experience and defy my witness to God's control over nature. I can give you marks for trying though. Thousands saw it by the way, I guess one would have to try and explain all that away also. Or maybe insist I'm lying? Perhaps they were all drugged and me too without realising it? Or who knows? First time miracle for me and only time admittedly (in that area anyway), but not something one can ever erase from my mind and many others who saw it also.

See, I am well aware that no matter WHAT happens, there are people who will deny even on their deathbeds. They say "prove it" yet when any proof does occur from the supernatural pointing to God, they deny it. Even if it's been proven inexplicable. Why? Because they honestly didn't want to know in the first place. Instead they will go after any that have been proven false and point to those as being proof that there is no God, and ignore the genuine miracles. See if they had really done their research on the right side of the fence, they would not be so quick to ignore or deny (unless they are so against God, that they would lie rather than make any admissions).

But evenso, miracles do not have to be grand fireworks displays, there can be miracles of conversion, which really are far more important and actually the entire point of our lives. God isn't a show off, but there are times when He can and certainly has suspended the laws of nature (since He's outside of it). It is a shocking experience when you are a witness to it. Something that is mind blowing.

I have so much proof in my own life of God's existence, not just in the blatant miracle, but many other personal aspects, that you could come up with anybody's new age interpretation or swing, any gurus cry of "god is dead" OR "we are god" and it would fall completely flat in comparison.

Man's limitations, ego and denials and new age gurus and "answers" will oneday cease. However, in the meantime, they prevail, just as the bible told us would happen.

There is so much in history and to this day of the miraculous, that I personally think it's inexcusable that people play ignorance. I very much doubt they'll be able to use this excuse when finally facing their maker.
