Someone recently said to me that, “People just learn things in a certain order”.
I think there is a lot of truth to this idea. If I hadn’t learned certain things by a certain time, I would probably be an atheist by now considering the terrible things that go on in this world.
Religious belief requires acceptance of the paranormal. In fact, the first thing you read about in the New Testament is Jesus’ connection to Old Testament prophecy.
This is what “that God somewhere out there” gives us for guidance. Is that the best He can do? I’m sure there’s much more clear ways to show us the path. Perhaps that’s why we’re instructed by various scriptures to “knock”, and to “ask”. There is such a thing as “assistance and confirmation”.
