The question I pose to you all, and myself, is what would need to occur to demonstrate irrefutable proof of a 'supreme' being.
I think my definition of god doesnt work with this exercise. If i believed in A god( a sentient, self aware, self contained entity) then i would say i'd have to have some otherwise impossible and grandois feat that was of a permanent nature....something like giant(100 ft tall+) stone letters appearing overnight that say "There IS a god"

however, my definition of GOD is the GOOD in all people. I am convinced of it's existence on a daily basis whenever i witness a kind act, or love between two people.

as far as slarti and hmonkey's debate, i think monkey is right.....if there was a specific omnipotent "god", he could prove his existence to any and all by simply making it so.
