'You don’t honestly expect to prove that God exists, do you?'
 

I think that would be pretty tough. I could show you a ton of circumstantial evidence, and many people would still say that they are unconvinced. But I do think it is possible to demonstrate that the existence of God is reasonable.
 

'But isn’t there just as much evidence out there that proves that God doesn’t exist?'
 

Actually there are a number of competing theories that attempt to explain our origin. But these secular theories are simply alternatives. None of them negate the possibility that God exists; they simply offer an alternative explanation. In essence, it cannot be proven that God does NOT exist.
 

'So if God can’t be proven one way or the other, why even post this page?'
 

I simply want believers and seekers to understand that the evidence brings us to a stand still. To take either side, then, will require a step of faith. Both positions require us to believe in something that cannot be proven conclusively.
 

'But if both positions are possible, why should I even consider believing in God (the position of theism)?'
 

Well, both sides try to answer the question, “How did we get here?” and it can probably be argued that both sides do a pretty good job of answering that question. Theists believe we are the product of design, while atheists believe we are the product of undirected random forces over a great period of time. And while both sides answer the first question to their satisfaction, only theism has a satisfactory answer to an equally important question: “WHY are we here?” If the atheists are right, we are merely the product of random chance; there is no purpose to our existence. If theists are right, we have been specially designed, our lives are part of a larger plan, and we have a purpose waiting to be discovered. If theism is an equally viable intellectual position to hold, based on the circumstantial physical evidence that we can observe, why not step out in faith and explore the possibilities?
