[QUOTE="aiki, post: 72030644, member: 178791"] I have faith in numbers; I believe numbers exist. They aren't visible, or tangible, however. You can't boil the number 5 in a test tube, or weigh the number 5 on a scale. Same thing with, say, integrity. I believe integrity exists, but it isn't accessible to my physical senses. I can't tell you where you can go to buy a pound of integrity. You can't bend or stretch integrity, or burn it with a torch. Nonetheless, integrity exists. If I can believe confidently that these intangible, invisible things exist, why should it be a problem for me to believe in God who is likewise invisible and intangible and beyond the boundaries of empirical testing? As for proving God exists, well, there is certainly ample evidence that He does. And there are many logically airtight arguments that prove Him to be real: the Kalam Cosmological Argument, the Ontological Argument, the many Teleological Arguments, the Argument from Morality, etc. I don't, then, believe in something for which I have no evidence.
