    There are also many solid arguments as to why a higher power exists.

    Bullshit. You can’t provide any, because they do not exist.

    After researching this subject, I came to the conclusion that those arguments for God are more compelling than the ones against, and Christianity carries the most solid and watertight explanation to who God is.

    What you call “research” I call cherry-picking until you find that which confirms what you already want it to.

    I wish you’d looked for therapy instead of a religious pablum to find your peace.

      Can you prove that God doesn’t exist?

      Also I have had therapy. It was moderately effective. Christianity isn’t a replacement for therapy.

        This is not how the burden of proof works. “God exists” is an assertion that requires evidence to prove. That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. It is not up to us to disprove something that doesn’t have evidence to support it in the first place, just like you don’t have to disprove that there’s an invisible purple dragon living in my garage when I claim there is. The claim never had any merit in the first place, so it should be dismissed.

        Let me ask you an equally absurd question: Can you prove an invisible, intangible, pink elephant doesn’t exist? If not then it must right? Does that sound like reasonable logic to you?

          But did this invisible intangible pink elephant come from a virgin, committed no wrong, performed miracles, was executed, then rose again from the dead and later on ascended into heaven?

            Sure did. He also has three heads, controls your dreams, and lives in your underwear drawer when you’re not looking. I saw him. There, I’ve given just as much proof that the pink elephant exists as you have that your God exists. Also FYI the concept of infinity is not evidence that the specific book you choose to follow that was written by humans, not even that long ago on the scale of earth history, was in any way influenced by a higher power.

              Do you have 500 people to attest to it and are you willing to be executed for your attestation?

              I literally said this in my comment
