RE: ...it is you who choose not to believe God
Can you "choose" to believe in space-aliens?
Don't you think that people who DO believe in space-aliens have been CONVINCED by either their own personal experience or by the testimony of what they consider credible witnesses?
And people who DON'T believe in space-aliens are simply NOT CONVINCED?
What I am saying is that cognitive dissonance will allow the 'believer' to believe in lies. Since they Choose to ignore the Truth, then they chose to Believe, instead of Know.
"Vaccines are dangerous, here is the evidence"
"No, I don't believe it, I BELIEVE my Doctor."
Did they choose to Believe, by choosing to Disbelieve?
Good point. People can seem to "choose" to believe a "trusted-source" BUT ONLY if they are first convinced that their "trusted-source" (genius, prophet, priest) is more reliable than their own judgement.
This is the root of the problem.
You should never trust (or distrust) any person or book 100%.
ACK. I AGREE! Oh no what will I do. Must find....something.....to argue...
Good stuff thank you :)
