Atheist and agnostics-have you ever?

Yeah, my Geo professor who is Catholic. He said something once that blended my beliefs (agnostic) with Christianity and makes me think that God may indeed be possible.

He was talking about the possibility of evolution and Christianity co-existing. The bible says God made the world in seven days. But "days" is a human measurement. To God, time is irrelevant. A day to God is not the same as a day to us. And if God is the beginning and the end, then maybe he is still creating, hence evolution. I’m not talking about the beginning of life here, just the possibility of evolution itself (a creature being able to evolve into a new species) and the beliefs of Christianity being able to fit together.

I’m still agnostic, but with this argument God seems, to me, at least plausible.

The problem is that people take the christian mythology literally and they are missing the point by doing so. God (or the ultimate reality) is beyond description and can only begin to be grasped if you see religion as metaphor, pointing the way to something that transcends human thought. I don't believe that God has a human personality that interacts in human affairs.

The exclusive divinity of the historical Jesus is highly improbable... though some would say he recognized the divine spark with-in himself that also lives in all of us.

No . Not one person including authors and lecturers can show me that an All Good , All Powerful God can exist in today's ( or the Biblical age's) world .

Furthermore I can not find any proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed .

I have never met anyone who made me think the existence of God is plausable

In my younger days yes. Now I have different opinions that are more firmly grounded and I doubt Christianity will ever make sense to me again. The supernatural, although I don't believe in it, is very interesting to me and I enjoy debating it.

No. It was not I have not spoken to well informed Christians, simply that none have ever offered a plausible reason to believe.

No.....I have talked with religious professors/clerics who are well informed and know their biblical history and translations. One of the most intelligent men I know believes in god/jesus and still comes to the same conclusion as me for the problems with the history, translations, and contradictions within the bible....he calls it faith...

I find him very intelligent....but his 'faith' is not based on any evidence....and actually contradicts evidence.

Most (not all) believers have little knowledge of the history of the church, the formation of the bible, the early church's varied beliefs, and the numerous problems with the bible/belief in said deity...

No, I have not spoken to anyone that made me rethink in the possibility of god, jesus or any other religious figure.

I respect anyone's right to believe what made the most sense for their own individual spiritual needs, but of course they've never said anything to sway me to reconsider my own beliefs.

It would take more than that, I am afraid to say.

I believed that they believed in the divinity of Jesus, but someone else's faith in the unknowable does not influence mine very much.
