I've seen threads of...
Theists: Does God Exist?
Atheist: Does God Exist?

IMO That refers to one certain God

So painting with a broader brush, does any supernatural god exist?

It is estimated that there are some 320 million gods, but there is only One Supernatural God who claims to have created everything that exists. We have documented records of the God who made the claim. We don't have any evidence to suggest that any of the others gods exist outside of our imagination.

We have independent eyewitness reports from many people from different parts of the world who never knew each other giving the same evidence.

The One who created the universe and every atom in it came into the world 2000 years ago. He proved He was God by performing miracles, including raising dead people back to life.

The Holy Bible is a documented, reliable record of the history of the universe and all life.

Oh that God! In that case no. The Bible has quite a few errors in it. Scientific errors, historic errors, moral errors. You name it, its got them.

Interesting how you completely ignore the fact that you are flat out wrong with "there is only One Supernatural God who claims to have created everything that exists."

The Holy Bible?
Which one?

There are many translations, but they all say the same thing. So there are no contradiction or false witnesses to speak of

Only in the realm of people's minds and imaginations is where supernatural gods exist and reside.

Who are these independent eyewitnesses?

The Bible is just a compilation of ancient mythological stories and writings with no known author or source other than its an old book among many old books.

It's certainly not documented nor remotely reliable, other than its implied value by its adherents.

Sorry to disappoint you but all the books of the bible are supported by other independent records and books. All the people were real historical people and nobody has ever found a error or fault with anything that is written in the Bible. The Bible is God communicating with mankind.

It's obvious to me that your simply regurgitating, what someone else has fed you and you can't support any of your claims.

IMO, "supernatural" is an impossible category. It can't apply to anything that actually exists, so anything labeled "supernatural" either is mislabelled or not real.

Since what is "natural" is inductively determined from observation, if all this is enough to establish that your god exists, then your god is natural... and therefore not supernatural.

No, your wrong. He created nature, but He also created many other things so we could be here all day going through the exhibits. The Creator God said, "they worship the creation rather than the Creator". There in lays the problem

We infer what nature is by observation and evidence: if we observe a thing, it's natural.

You say that we can infer God's existence from observation and evidence. If this were true, it would make God part of nature.

This would still be the case even if God behaves differently from other natural things or if God created parts of nature.

Not sure how that's relevant.

Unbelievers worship nature instead of the One who created nature. Created things prove that a creator created them, unless you can empty yourself of all common sense and embrace the sad pseudo science theory that "everything came from nothing", that defies logic
