Is there any evidence?

Do you know why you are a Christian?
Non-Christians seem to have all of the evidence in their court.

Accidental Christians.

Whatever We Call Eternal is Our God.

The mystery drives us to science.
Science drives us to theology.
Whatever has the ability to exist forever, is a god.

Look at the greeks.
Gaia being Mother Earth.

[Show Quote]
Many believe that the cosmos was created by something.

Crash Course in Philosophy

A premise is a justification for a conclusion.
A conclusion is a theory on truth.
If all of the premises are true, then the conclusion must be true.
If some of the premises of your belief system are false, then either ignore the falsehood, change the premise, or change the conclusion.
[Look at some examples]
