probably 2027 or so given current advancement (minus the robot iron-man-esque superpowers)

Ai is very different than what you are referring too.

Nobody is against technological advances that benefit people, but artificial intelligence is not the answer to our prayers.

It's the end times bud. We are witnessing the truth of God's word unravel in real time and our zombified generation is staring at this nonsense like it's the next best thing.

Why do you think your religion is true? I'm asking genuinely

I don't believe in the term religion, but rather the term Jesus.

Anytime I get this question I simply challenge them on what they are looking for because if you are trying to find the truth about Jesus through another source I feel you your experience to differ in how you would experience Jesus having faith and personally invested in getting to know him on your own.

We have countless testimonies and evidence of God throughout history and our world so there is plenty to go off of and sharing my story is just another experience that you can't relate to.

Having a moment of, "I want want they have" witnessing someone living as a new creation is an exciting and great thing being genuinely curious about it, but it'll need to be something you want and something you go after on your own.

I wish I could believe in something, but in my mind it's obviously all lies made up to control the populations of the time with no real grounding evidence, what do you think?

I was raised on jesus, then I started asking why and everyone got mad about it, then at around 18 years old I realized it was because nobody really had any answers and it was all just based on the "trust me bro" guarantee

You just proved my point.

Being raised/taught/listening to others experiences is not going to be your deciding factor on knowing Jesus.

I'm not someone to say, "trust me bro"

God is real and ever since 2011 I have seen and experienced the fruit of his word through my own faith and experiences. You will need to do the same, but that starts with you having faith and pursuing him.

how do you know that though? I really would like to know because nobody can every provide any actual proof and it's all faith based arguments, I think AI is more real than any "god" will ever be, due to the fact that it can be interacted with

I think religion is an artifact of a more primitive species which needs to seek meaning from outside because its uncomfortable with its own existence and lack of meaning

Your birth and the world around you is proof of a creator. We all did not come from nothing.

You're missing my point about faith. I'd be happy to share my testimony with you, but my experiences are not going to be something that changes you and your views on Jesus. You having faith in him and pursuing him will he reveal himself to you. In your eyes you are looking for something that you can apply all your senses to at once and you aren't going to find that through other sources.

Jeremiah 29:13: "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." This verse emphasizes wholehearted seeking to find God.
Deuteronomy 4:29: "But from there you will seek the Lord your God and you will find him, if you search after him with all your heart and with all your soul." This verse highlights the commitment and sincerity needed in seeking God.
Matthew 7:7-8: "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened." This passage speaks of God's responsiveness to those who actively seek Him.
