You'd think that if there were a God, this all-seeing, all-knowing whatever, he'd speak to everyone and not just to people he knows are just going to end up getting crucified, impaled, or burned... seems like a waste. I don't believe in God and I'm only a Christian when it's "convenient."
Jesus did go around and let everyone he could know of his presence. Those who chose not to believe him condemned themselves.

Also, on the "today" end of the spectrum, I've heard a theory that I like. God doesn't speak to people today as he did back in "Biblical times." At least, we don't think he does. According to theory, this is because today there are so many adamant non-believers, that either God simply chooses not to say anything, or he knows that if he were to do anything short of uh.. say.. blowing up the sun and most of the planets in our SS, people still wouldn't believe it was an act of God. Or, God may be talking to people.

If this were true, it can be easilly explained that none of us know about it. Those who refuse to talk about it are numerous. Either they choose to keep it to themselves as something personal (a good example of this would be this thread. many people bash others for their beliefs) or they might disregard it as a strange occurance or a hallucination. Those who speak out... would, in today's society, generally be considered insane.

It's a sad world we live in today.
well...i think if god openly spoke to everybody a lot more people would believe that he is real. 6 billion people hearing the same thing is most probably not a hallucination. God would just prove himself by speaking to us causing 99% of ppl to believe in him...why he doesn't just do this if he is real is beyond my logic.
