Abstract

Can you prove the existence of God?

Dr. Martha Reineke discusses how those who believe in the existence of God often do not need or desire to “prove” the existence. Although she understands that proof exercises are important for philosophers and intellectual discussions, she finds them meaningless for the average religious believer.
