I have heard that before, that God can’t be understood by man. And this property of being “unknowable” is somehow proof that God exists. Yet there are countless texts which indeed pretend to know God, and these too are given as proof that he exists. You (generic theist you) used to say that look at the amazing diversity of life, it must have been planned by someone or something intelligent. Then as evolution becomes more and more obvious, you now say that the Big Bang itself had to have been done by God.

If you guys had one coherent message to prove that God exists, you might get more people to buy it. As it is it seems like a cacaphony of competing ideas and theories, documents and miracles, all claiming to be proof. None of which is hard scientific evidence, but, hell, science can’t detect the unknowable, right?

Seems like a lot of grasping at straws.
