Therefore, you cannot deduce the cause of that feeling from the feeling itself. If you have a general feeling of love or being watched over by a larger being, and you refer to this feeling as "God" - then the relation between the meaning you personally ascribe to God and the religious concept of God still remains completely indeterminate.
To you, not to me. Which is the entire point. We each have our own choice

My word.

Ok then.
This from the man that crows of being taught to "memorise the whole bible from a very early age".

let me remind you Reverend, is this near enough?

I just love your double standards, Reverend.

LOL @ you. 

I am not decrying wikapedia.  I asked you for some real sources and studies.  Wiki has its place. But it is not as a a reliable source. It is useful. It contains lots of information. but it is not corroborated. Nor is it to be relied upon as authoritative. 

I use it for definitions - etc. And as a source from time to time.  Yet, it is not a primary source. You do understand the difference don't you? Actually I am not sure you do.

Of course you are. And now you have shown to be a hypocrite HERE above>> #182 you are attempting to backpedal and excuse you blatant double standards.

Wiki has its place

It does when YOU  to reference it to support your own claims, yet it is unacceptable for anyone else to reference it.  Your a fraud Reverend.

Evidence for GOD.

Is as loose a concept as is the concept of GOD.

Primary sources do not exist.

Other than a fairly firm assumption that something happened quite a long time ago, that can variously be labelled as GOD or BOOM or KPOW or WHOOSH.....Or anything one chooses.

Evidence for God
Every theistic religion provides the evidence for God and the various ways man has tried to Worship God.

But the personification of God is the individual struggle. Trying to create an image of God that each can personify.

Even Jesus lamented about God on the cross.
Matthew 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is to say, “My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?”

Yes indeed, Shila. The son of god losing his faith in god.

No religion has proof of any god. Anyone that says they do is lying.

But there is proof all religions worship a God.
