God is incredible and beyond our imagination
GOD IS INCREDIBLE AND BEYOND OUR IMAGINATION

    They say "God isnt a thing that we can prove, experiment” etc.
Then immediate question pops in my mind is then how do you know about his existence?
Science doesnt work that way.
There are many things, phenomenon that we cant see with our eyes but we know their existence with experiments (UV rays, Gamma rays, Infrared light, etc).
Our senses are definitely not perfect to sense everything but we know existence of things by our experiments. And most important thing about it is that these experiments if repeated give same results.

People usually say that God is incredible, almighty, with infinite power and so so.
But cant accept that universe is infinite, its beyond our imagination, and it may be just a probability to have life on earth. They cant believe evolution which is evidence based and timely proved.

A theist IIT student gave me an example to prove how imperfect our senses are and that God is beyond our imagination. He explained it logically through the refraction of light as-
When we put a pencil in a glass of water it appears to be bent where it passes from air to water. But actually the pencil is not bent. It appears to be so. This proves that our senses are not perfect to see/hear/feel everything and so the God.
Here it should be understood that he is comparing two things with other two things as being analogous-
Pencil is not bent (pencil is straight) with God is present.
We falsely see the pencil to be bent with we falsely cant see the God (as our senses are not perfect).
But we should also understand that these two things are not analogous and hence cannot be compared. We now know the law of refraction and hence we can explain why we see the pencil to be bent. But for considering that God does exist we dont have any such law. Similarly before scientist Snell described the laws of refraction we still knew that the pencil is not bent as we could simply draw the pencil outside water and see it to be straight. But in case of Gods existence we cant directly observe so. And hence these things are not comparable.
But yes, its true that our senses are not perfect to observe many things from surroundings. But with the help of developing science we are now able to observe many things which we were not able to observe due to limitations of our senses.
We cant see in dark but night vision cameras make us able to see in dark.
We cant here ultrasonic sound waves which the bats use to communicate, navigate. But have developed detectors which can sense those sounds.
We cant see many planets with naked eye in the night sky but infrared light gives us the power to see rouge planets.
We cant see minerals and fossil fuels hidden deep in the earths crust but science makes it possible to find exact locations of that.
With the help of science only we have discovered the micro cosmos of atoms, molecules, DNAs, cells etc and macro cosmos of planets, solar systems, galaxies, local group, Virgo super cluster, etc.

Still some will say, few years ago- before the discovery of different light spectrum we were unaware of many things which we now know with the help of UV light, infrared light, etc. and similarly we are yet to discover the technology which can detect the existence of God.
Well, the argument is purely logical. It can be possible. We might not have any such technology which can detect God’s existence but till we develop such technology we have no reason to believe the concept of God and its existence.
So the God is incredible and beyond our imagination and capacity or God does exist is just a belief which can be true or false.
