¶ … convince my audience that God exists
Although God cannot be seen, heard or touched in a real sense, he exists as a real entity.
There is something that we use every single second of our lives which we cannot see, hear or touch.
This is something that drives our life force, and allows us to live.
Without it, we would die a painful death within a matter of minutes!
Every living creature on this planet requires it to continue its existence
This thing that I am talking about is oxygen!
Until the 18th century, no one knew what oxygen was, nor could they define it. Yet we still use it in every single breathe that we take.
Without the use of scientific instrumentation we cannot see, hear or touch oxygen yet we all assume that it exists nonetheless.
The average person cannot hear, see, or touch God and yet fully one third of the world believes that he exists. I am here with you for us to develop an understanding of why God exists.
A.I have carefully researched this topic and now I will share the most topical information I have found (establish credibility)

The majority of people who do not believe in God explain their incredulity in several ways.
No one can prove the existence of God and therefore he must not exist

People have committed many wrongs under the name of God such as the crusades, destruction of indigenous cultures, etc. And since God did not stop these actions he must not exist.
B. These arguments however are all counter-intuitive because they argue that just believe there is no proof of God
Human history has only spanned slightly over one hundred thousand years, and we know less than one percent of all of the knowledge in this universe
Until the three hundred years ago we did not know the existence of the atom
We have explored less than one-billionth of the known universe
Is it implausible to believe that out of the 99.9999% of unknown things in the universe, that God could be somewhere within that space?
God is not restricted by the mandates of time, and therefore we will never fully appreciate his plan for us a.
Humans can only see a very small slice of life because we are mortal, therefore we can never know if the actions that we view as "harmful and bad" will not ultimately be beneficial in some other way.
b. We as humans are naturally pre-disposed to taking…
