Human foible to question existence of God


PHILIPPINES President Rodrigo Duterte is not the first person to challenge the existence of a divine creator or God, “I’ll resign if anybody can prove God exists” (Sunday Star, July 8).

People like him think God’s existence can be proven in the science lab, much like water can be proven to be a compound of oxygen and hydrogen. Human beings are trying hard to use their logic to analyse the spiritual domain. They treat God as an object which can be proved to exist or not to exist.
