If it were possible to prove God's non-existence, it would be possible to prove his existence, and may the best theory win. > Consider. I believe that God does indeed exist as the wellspring of love, the source of all goodness, the marvelous mind that created the universe in all its age and infinite complexity. I believe that God has sustained me through the trials in my life, that he is the home of the faithful and the comfort of those who mourn. He is every good thing that I have ever dreamed of and all those I have not yet thought to dream. A lot of y'all don't think so. But, imagine how my worldview would be pulverized if, again, impossibly, God were to be proven not to exist. Imagine, also, since I *do* believe God exists, how I must feel about the thought that someone wants to surgically remove my belief. If that happened, in my view, God would *still* exist, and I would be crippled in my response to him. Mia
