Anyone looking for “proof” of God in the mathematical or scientific sense is, IMHO, going to be very disappointed. We have to look at all the evidence and choose whether or not we believe, but for those who believe there is always going to be an element of faith and an element of doubt. I was very blessed to have crossed paths with some very intelligent Christians who were willing to share their faith with me and answer my toughest questions. > **[Answers in Genesis](https://answersingenesis.org)** > > Answers in Genesis is an apologetics ministry, dedicated to helping Christians defend their faith and proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ effectively. ---

Actually, modern modal logic [has proved God’s existence](http://www.angelfire.com/mn2/tisthammerw/rlgn&phil/ontological.html) as long as you’re willing to define Him as “Supreme Being”.
