Atheists: What would be the greatest proof to you that God exists?

If there was one absolute truth that could prove to you that God exists (yes, this is a hypothetical situation and I know it probably doesn't currently exist), what would it be?

Examples:

- He would have to show himself to you physically

- give you everything you've ever wanted

- stop world hunger and violence

I'm honestly and Sincerely curious. I won't argue anything.

    Well, many people like to test it and say, "If there is a God, may he strike me with lightning!"

    But you also have to deal with people who accuse them of using special effects or something.

    I guess with all the brilliant illusionists and people who are skilled with technology could easily replicate anything that we atheists could come up with. Aside from actually seeing a giant hand come out of the sky (in real life, not tv)....I can't really think of anything. If I saw the giant hand come out of the sky, and nobody else saw it, I'd be considered a loon.

    The whole thing about God is that Gods can not be proved! Faith is knowing without proof! Faith is a form of knowing. I think you have to have some years on you before you understand what Faith is like, or the quality of Faith.

    Faith is seeing without eyes, touching without a body, smelling without the nose and hearing beyond any sound made by any conflict between two parts. Faith is a unification, a marriage if you well, a congregation or a wise old Nation.

    Faith is seeing a smile on an infants face and knowing all the faces of mankind are faces of infants.

    What made the foot steps in the sand?

    The answer is conception! You have to concieve it for it to come alive. There were no foot steps until some human figured it out and pointed it out to others.

    You identify God in the garb of human.God is Love. All possess love whether theists or Atheists. Theists love at least their kith and kin. This love is nothing but God though a little sub standard since all human love are either waxing or waning according to circumstances. True selfless love can be exhibited by godly personalities. They are in a way very near to godhead since they exhibit the same quality god possess. If you want to see him physically, you can see him now itself in this world. Precisely He is doing all what you want. Have patience.

    you're asking an somewhat honest question and that i'm giving it a famous man or woman. BTW, any atheist who provides grief in this could be happening momentum from a prior argument. one element God is traditionally properly-widespread for is miracles. If I observed some thing that replaced right into a miracle, quite if it replaced into predicted, i could have faith. And it must be a real miracle, like those interior the bible. of direction, God performing interior the sky and saying himself could fall into that type. yet I might desire to admit, in spite of if I observed a bona fide miracle, i could nevertheless look for a extra prosaic clarification. that's usually the main appropriate element to do. looking none, i could might desire to settle for the existence of God. and that i does no longer in ordinary terms brush it off because of fact that's contradictory to my perspectives. i does no longer settle for an illogical denial from myself. Then i could decide to ask him some questions that are no longer likely to get me into heaven.

    If God exist whats the purpose of him staying hidden. And don't say if a person were to look upon God he would die. That's just an excuse used because there is no God to look upon. Sorry no proof of God no God, just a fairy tale.

    Okay, it would be serveral things:

    A) He shows up

    B) He explains all of my questions (Shows wisdom)

    C) He then performs some supernaturalact that only I am thinking of (probably something grand, like removing an entire galaxy and then recreate it)

    Um hellllooooo. I tired of trying. I showed up at atheists party with two forms of photo ID, my mother, a police officer, three preachers and a judge from the supreme court and they still didn't believe in me.

    The greatest proof God exists would be if people stopped bothering me about my religious (or lackthereof) beliefs and trying to convince me that there is a god. Then I would be convinced!!!

    Show himself to me, and give me supernatural power to stop hunger and war. If I pulled that off, then I would believe.

    If a god itself to me, that'd be enough. I think I'd know a god if I saw one and I wouldn't worry about being insane. Perception is reality, or so I believe.
