Remember when Richard Dawkins gave powerful arguments against the existence of God? Neither do I. What sort of evidence could God give Dawkins that could convince Dawkins to believe in God? Well, I used to say it would be very simple. It would be a second coming of Jesus or or a great big deep booming base Paul Robson voice saying, "I am God."
He used to say that the second coming of Jesus or an audible voice from God would convince him. But then he realized that these things wouldn't convince him at all. Even if there was this this booming voice and the second coming in clouds of glory. The more probable explanation is that it's a hallucination or conjuring trick by David Copperfield or something.
Notice if God did speak and if Jesus did return coming on the clouds of heaven with legions of angels, Dawkins still wouldn't believe in God because a more probable explanation to him would be that it's all a hallucination or a magic trick. But they're not finished. So if you, you know, if you walked out and there were these globes that were spinning around that said, you know, I am God, believe in me, or the famous Krauss thing, you walk out into the sky and tell spells out in the stars in different languages, I am God, believe in me.
So now we walk outside and we see a message written in the stars. The stars have been rearranged so that they spell out I am God. Believe in me in multiple languages. Surely that would convince these guys who always go where the evidence points, right? Any any aliens who could actually visit us would have to be so far beyond us in their technology that they probably could manipulate the stars to to um spell out words or what would convince him? Well, I'm starting to think nothing would. Nothing would. Why? Because they've adopted a methodology that is completely impervious to evidence.
