But what if that "something" is beyond the range of our 5 senses, does that mean it doesn't exist?
TWIDDLING AWAY by Mick
Atheists are like a radio operator with earphones on, hunched over his radio set twiddling the knob between just 5 wavelengths (analoguous to our 5 human senses) He doesn't know there are thousands more wavelengths out there.
In the past he's twiddled further looking for them, but all he got was mostly static, so he gave up and stuck with his trusty old 5.
Christians on the other hand have acquired the mindset of being able to tune into wavelengths that he can't -
"We look at things unseen rather than the seen,for the seen are temporary,but the unseen are eternal" (2 Cor 4:18 )
I had a radio once that had an "auto-search" option, it was fun putting it on "search" to automatically scan the airwaves, it locked onto a station for a few seconds, then scanned on to stop at another, and so on.
Most of the stops were crap, very faint or crackly with barely-audible foreign language coming through, it might have been Radio Timbuctoo for all i knew...
But every now and again it'd stop at a station that came through loud and clear and interesting, whether it be good music or interesting discussion in English, and i'd halt the scan and stick with it.
Likewise in real life I've scanned many religions in my own mind by reading about them and weighing them up, but there's only ONE that has ever reached out and grabbed me in a vice-like grip, -Christianity ;)
