LINK Why Won't God Heal Amputees?
"Is God real, or is he imaginary? It is one of the most important questions you can ask yourself.
If God is real and if God inspired the Bible, then we should worship God as the Bible demands. We should certainly post the Ten Commandments in our courthouses and shopping centers, put "In God We Trust" on the money and pray in our schools. We should focus our society on God and his infallible Word because our everlasting souls hang in the balance.
On the other hand, if God is imaginary, then religion is a complete illusion. Christianity, Judaism and Islam are pointless. Belief in God is nothing but a silly superstition, and this superstition leads a significant portion of the population to be delusional.
But how can we decide, conclusively, whether God is real or imaginary?
Since we are intelligent human beings living in the 21st century, we should take the time to look at some data. That is what we are doing when we ask, "Why won't God heal amputees?""

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Well, your opening statement would hold if the god that exists is the god described in the Bible. But, there are problems with that because "the god" of the Bible is so contradictory--this is what caused me to conclude that this god not only does not exist--it cannot exist. There are too many of its attributes that just can't be reconciled. Because I do not have all the knowledge of the universe, or universes, I can't 'know ' whether any other type of being, that we would call a god, exists-- but, I am quite certain this one doesn't. Thus, I conclude, this god won't heal amputees because it cannot exist.

Very well stated. I would often tell believers when they'd share their particular mythology, that I may not have the ultimste truth, but that I can pretty much dismiss theirs on its illogic alone.
