The "skeptic" is only this: A person who analyzes the evidence before him and then makes up their mind about whether to accept something. <br /><br /><i>The skeptic sees God revealed in nature and doubts Him</i><br /> <br />Oh? Which "God" do we "see"? Can you go by just nature itself and guess which "God" is supposed to be real, from all the man-made "gods" out there?<br /><br />You can't.<br /><br />Besides that, the evidence that we see from nature contradicts Genesis big time. Read <b>The Creationists</b> by Ronald Numbers. People <b>wanted</b> to believe the OT version of events, but exposure to the field shot that down.<br /><br /><i>sees God revealed in Scripture and doubts Him</i><br /> <br />Given the <a href="http://www.virtualyeshiva.com/counter-index.html" rel="nofollow">failed messianic prophecies</a>, bad science, etc...duh!Reynoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07316048340050664487noreply@blogger.com
