Just Look, This Proves It!

“Just look at the protein, Laminin

it’s shaped just like a CROSS!

This just PROVES that God is REAL!

It just COULDN’T if He WASN’T!”

but wait

do we really need such things to prove God’s reality?

a proof one sees one way another may anotherwise

each one’s “Ah ha!” is by another claimed

the Bible sure isn’t written like we must prove Him

it says no more than “The heavens declare His glory!”

and “What can be known of God is plainly seen.”

and at no point does any Biblical scribe

do any more than assume that God already is

so Joseph, refusing ‘Mrs. Potiphar’

said only “How can I sin against God?”

knowing she really knew what she denied

so Jesus in Jerusalem, so Paul in Athens

would each confirm to any doubter who asked

the truth they didn’t really want to know

so no

we need not grasp at obscurities

odd perspective dependent observations

shaped like this or arranged like that

to prove to anyone that God is real

a thing’s shape or arrangement is irrelevant

that the thing itself exists is sufficient

to prove God to any who care to see

for all who live already know

the reality of God cannot be denied
