It really doesn't matter where it can be proven to you, it matters that you realise that for them it is their reality. It is a big part of who they are.
It is you that must realise that to lose yourself in trying to confirm your own world you can never understand others.
I don't believe in a literal God but I do believe that for many it is a reality and it is how they justify and rationalise their very existance. I understand it is important for me to understand, just because I can't see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist for them.
God in the end is as powerful as the believer sees him to be. Faith is about just that and the degree of faith can be easily seen as how much they question Gods actions.
So if a believer in God is questioning his motives or actions we are learning about the questioner and his faith.
This thread is about discovering and understanding the faith and beliefs the others have as we have discovered about you.
Only god can answer the question posed in this thread and I don't know what his TFP name is -yet!
