"Proving" God

On Saturday, two celebrity Christians debated a group called the Rational Response Squad about the existence of god for the televised "ABC Nightline Face-off." Evangelical author Ray Comfort and child actor Kirk Cameron intended to “prove god’s existence scientifically, without mentioning the bible or faith." After watching the clip (below), it's clear they failed. Not quite as funny as the banana video, though.

That's just painful to watch. They didn't really televise that (outside of YouTube), did they? It's like watching 2 high school drop outs (Cameron and what's-his-face) debate a couple freshman philosophy majors. I don't think the world needs to be subjected to that.

The guy who comes closest to making Christian faith rational is Edmund Burke.

Chris, re: freshman philosophy majors...lol you hit it right-on. Especially with that heavy metal introduction in the car...

Dad, re: Edmund Burke. I just Wikipedia-ed him..found this quote that could have come straight from your mouth:

"Manners are of more importance than laws. .. Manners are what vex or soothe, corrupt or purify, exalt or debase, barbarize or refine us, by a constant, steady, uniform, insensible operation like that of the air we breathe in."

God really does exist! How do I know this? Because tonight on History, there’s a terrific special, “Proving God,” that proves it, that’s how.

No, they won’t prove it by what the astrophysicist priests at the Vatican Observatory tell us they’ve found, nor what quantum physicists reveal, nor even what archeologists uncover in the show, but because History randomly decided to air the show today.divorce costs
