There are those who say that the Christian God is unfalsifiable, and transcendent, but they are so deeply wrong. Let's just briefly outline what an unfalsifiable claim is and what it means to be transcendent for those of you who might not be aware.
1. An unfalsifiable claim is any claim made that cannot be proven or disproven.
Example: There is a giant purple dragon outside of the universe. Is it possible? I suppose. Can it be disproven? Well, no. We cannot see outside of the universe so there is no way to verify one way or the other. There exists an infinite number of these and the idea of a creator or a "God" of the universe is one of these unfalsifiable claims.
In fact, it's completely irrational to single out a single unfalsifiable claim as truth as there exists an infinite number of those and each are equally unknowable and equally as valid in terms of evidence. If one were to assert that a single unfalsifiable claim were true then logically one would then have to conclude that all these possible claims are true.
However, the Christian God lives inside the universe and actually seems to have a real physical form. The God in the Torah is activity interacting and even communicating with people all the time. Communication via sound waves requires a physical form of matter and matter obeys the laws of the universe. Therefore this God must obey the laws of the universe. This "God" must then by his very nature exist inside the universe and must be subject to the laws of the universe and therefore can be disproven.
If we then accept that the God of the Torah does in fact exist in this universe (which the Torah supports) then he is no longer unfalsifiable. So, is there anything that this God is claimed to have done that is literally impossible according to the laws of the universe?

The Torah claims that this God created the world in 7 days. This is false.

If you're talking about Jesus and let's be honest the whole "father son" thing is completely insane but Jesus was said to have walked on water. For that to be possible Jesus (being made of matter) would have to have a lower density than water which is impossible for a human being.
Jesus was a human no? And Jesus was made of matter no? It's impossible for a human to walk on water. God disproven.
Well, that was easy. Maybe Buddhism will be harder?
-
That bit about walking on water is an argument I've never heard before. And an interesting one at that. Science FTW!

This guy spent so much time analyzing life that he forgot to get one.
-
Actually wrong Lincoln the Jews believe that God himself is the invitees with so he doesn't have to obey any of the laws of the universe if he so chooses
-
Jesus is the son of God he can kinda do anything and u don't need a lower density to walk on water u just gotta be super fast

Little did u know that the Torah was for Jews not Christians [spoiler]i just felt like typing something [/spoiler]

Why do you spend so much time trying to prove something you believe doesn't exist? If it doesn't exist there is no point. Furthermore why so much hate for Christianity? How can you have hate for something that doesn't exist?
-
All right I saw your post and decided to comment. The way this works Jesus is God. God is Jesus. God is the holy spirit. Jesus is the holy spirit. Now since you don't understand because you look for logic with your matter claims God is God he can make anything happen or not He can make you exist or cease to He can do anything and the bible supports that and number 2 Jews don't believe Jesus is God's son and that He is God at the same time.

Modificato da Thoth: 12/17/2015 4:46:32 AMEven if we had proof, would someone like you seriously waste your time with reading the proof? I mean come on man, all you are going to do is deny that the proof is real and because we don't have proof to claim the proof is actual proof then you'll just say "if you don't have proof, then God isn't real." Well here is my proof: 1 day before my father was taken by the cancer that had spread through his body, he look up in the air and smiled. I asked him, "what are you looking at? He said to me, "don't you see that man up there?" Of course I couldn't see anything but he just kept smiling. He raised his arms in the air and quietly said to himself "I'm ready to go now, you can take me now." Now up until this day I'll never know who he was actually talking to but I have a feeling that it wasn't me. Now you can disregard this as false if you want but I was in the room with him alone and what I've heard him say and do make me believe that there is more to life than just us bag of meat and bones. He wasn't on any drugs at the moment and I was having a conversation with him before this happened. Do what you will with this information I have just given you.
