Images, belief, and faith

Images, belief, and faith



People believe what they want to believe. Some make their own "reality". Some have delusions, hallucinations, and weird dreams.

Some believe in atheism, Hinduism, Islam, and Christianity. Some believe anything they read or see in the media. It may be a lie (anything from a full-blown lie to a little-twisting-of-the-truth). It may be real.

Is seeing believing? Most, if not all, atheists are empiricists and/or philosophic naturalists. The only reality is what our senses sense. Sense may be extended with instruments as a microscope, telescope, or computer.

Is the person in the video real or imaginary? You probably know it IS imaginary, but it is close to the real thing isn't it? I'm sure improvements will happen in the future.

What is truth? It has to be measured not by what works, what our senses sense, or what somebody tells us is truth. It has to be measured by a standard. That standard can be identified by a person. An objective look at the Lord Jesus Christ will tell you that He is that person. You can read the evidence here.
