Ok fair enough, so what is this ''thing'' you wrote about in the days when this was being written? can you name it? oh I see, you say ''visible Universe''
Have you here now ANSWERED those TWO QUESTIONS that you 'were' ASKING me? Or, are you still wanting me to ANSWER them?

If you say this 'thing' was meant as proof or evidence, then what will a believer in God have to show as evidence and proof, so that you AGE can then tell the believer,yes indeed, you have provided me with what I asked for?
SOME 'thing' that EVERY one could AGREE WITH, and ACCEPT.
Which is JUST THE SAME as WITH EVERY 'thing' ELSE here regarding PROOF, Truth, Right, and Wrong.

Can you tell us what would need to show up, as proof and evidence?
Firstly, PLEASE just REMOVE the 'evidence' word COMPLETELY, as I ONLY deal WITH 'proof'. See, 'evidence' FOR some 'thing' does NOT mean that there IS 'proof' for 'that thing'. 'evidence' IS REFUTABLE, while ONLY 'proof' IS IRREFUTABLE.
Secondly, if you are ASKING here, what NEEDS to SHOW UP as 'proof' for 'God' ONLY, then what NEEDS to SHOW UP 'HAS', ALREADY. In Fact what 'It' IS, HAS BEEN 'sitting HERE', BEFORE 'us' FOREVER. Thus, 'It', THE PROOF, IS BEFORE, for ALL TO LOOK AT, and SEE, ALWAYS IN the HERE-NOW. BUT because human beings ARE an evolving 'thing', NOT EVERY 'thing' COMES-TO-LIGHT, or IS SEEN, and thus in a sense SHOWS UP, ALL, AT ONCE.
What IS, ALWAYS, SHOWING UP IS the Universe, Itself. Which IS JUST God, in the visible sense.

If you say the visible Universe is proof and evidence of the belief in God, then why call it God, why not just call it the visible Universe ?
Because 'me', "age", did NOT personally LIST ALL of the words. I am just USING the words that ARE ALREADY IN LANGUAGE, and IN USE.
Also, WHILE one is BELIEVING IN God, or has A BELIEF in or of God, then 'that one' does NOT NEED ACTUAL 'evidence' NOR even ANY 'proof'. 'They' have ALREADY FORMED A BELIEF, which WHILE MAINTAINED IS UNCHANGEABLE, anyway.
The visible Universe also does NOT PROVIDE the True AND Right IMAGE, or Picture, for ALL-THERE-IS.
The word 'God' brings with 'It' a connotation or perception of A Creator. Which is WHERE the, non visible, 'Mind' COMES IN.
WITHOUT the 'Mind', after all, EVERY human made CREATION would NOT have COME-TO-EXIST. And, if 'we' were to be ABSOLUTELY and Truly Honest here, human made 'creations' are REALLY ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, and even BEYOND BELIEF sometimes. Although 'they' are ONLY 'now' REALLY STARTING TO TAKE OFF, and BE EVEN MORE AMAZING.
AND, absolutely EVERY one of these 'creations', originally, CAME FROM IMAGINATION, itself, which ONLY exists in and from THE Truly OPEN Mind.

Why does the visible Universe have to be given another title other than what it is already?
But the title 'God' is NOT here being GIVEN to 'the visible Universe'.
I will SAY 'this' AGAIN:
God, in the visible sense, IS the Universe, Itself.
God, in the visible sense, IS the Mind, Itself.
God, HAS TO BE EXPLAINED IN and FROM these two senses BECAUSE 'you', human beings, talk ABOUT God IN the 'Spiritual' sense, AND, IN the 'physically Created' sense.
Now, obviously, one is visible while one is not.
