Question:
Atheist cannot prove God exists and that is the basis for their non belief.
Something has to be proven before it is to be believed after all that is the
definition of faith. Faith is based on proof. I don't deny this. BUT I do
believe something even though I cannot prove it. Between the age of about 4
and 7 my wife said that she used to listen to stories told to her by her
granddad. Usually stories of his life but other times he would just sit with
her while she played or sit on the end of her bed before she went to sleep.
The unusual part is that he had already been dead since before her birth.
Now she never thought this weird because she was so used to him being around
that everything was normal to her. I told her that she could have imagined
it bit she said that her gran had later on admitted to her that some of the
stories were only known to her and her deceased husband. Most of the stories
impossible for a little girl to dream up.
That is strange. Do we deny or just ignore stories like this because they
are unexplainable? I can understand how fortune tellers con the needy but I
believe my wife's stories wholeheartedly. She had no need or longing for
someone that she had never known and no reason to make up a childhood story
like this because she is just like me, needs proof. But that is something we
both cannot explain.
Answer:
You have a misleading title. "Divine intervention". The supernatural
beliefs you're showing here are not "theistic", divine, they are more like
"animism", "spiritism", or something.
