No one individual, or group of individuals for that matter, can provide a visual stimulation or a physically felt piece of evidence to give grounds for the claim of God's existence. Many occurrences or sights can be "interpreted" to be the work of the Lord but in the definition alone lays the word "individual" and therefore cannot be considered proof for everyone. The understanding that everyone will not concur on an individual's experience as evidence sets up the boundaries for disagreement between societies so that each can be compared to the other for their own conditions.

In the Scientific realms of life the case has little question. Is there measurable evidence that such a being exists? Many say there is and use the "unexplainable" occurrences as the evidence for support. The Scientific Method however, depends upon something being "known" to begin with and without the actual evidence of God existing cannot support the case. In the pursuit of science, many things hold contrary evidence to the existence of God have come to pass. The evolution of animals, the carbon dating of the earth and cosmological happenings all provide discredit for a "Supreme Being's" existenc

The separate interpretations do not slow societies as a whole from embracing some form of a religious stance. Many of these positions use the Bible as the cornerstone of their faith and beliefs. It is known that the earliest parts of the Hebrew Bible were written about 950 B.C., which was more than 300 years after the exodus from Egypt. It is also known that stories matching the likes of Noah existed in the Mesopotamian religion and were referred to as the Epic of Gilgamesh which has been documented as far back as 4000-3000 B.C. yet it leaves the believers undeterred. This book was written by someone, more than that, many individuals so what is it that makes this strength in belief, this faith, so unrelenting?

The fact that people as individuals or as a society can hold beliefs in God is somewhat remarkable. If this inner belief in something beyond the confines of a living body leads someone in life and provides purpose then it is a real aspect of their lives. Karl Marx may not see life in general the same as the norm. A scientist rarely does for the individual mindset is to prove not believe. The lack of physical evidence gives the scientist all that is needed to dismiss the idea of a God. Does the lack of physical evidence leave those who need none to believe as crazy or "malfunctioning"? I think Plantiga has the right insight in that how can an idea that is providing purpose and direction in one's life be conceived to be irrational or unreasonable. With the vast differences in cultures throughout the world, expectations of conflicting ideas through
