What should be taken into consideration when reflecting on the question 'Does God exist?'" Many have asked this question in a very simple way.

Let us now consider the realities of these alternatives:

        If God does not exist

If this is the case, nothing supernatural has ever happened, at least during the existence of humankind. A person might think it impossible to understand events that took place in the early stages of the universe. Such 'miracles' are not what is meant here. Nor would there be any kind of spirit world. One who supports this option does not need to provide any convincing evidence for their viewpoint. It is enough to simply believe that God does not exist. In the name of honesty, however, it should be mentioned that the statement “I can’t believe it” only proves the person’s own abilities to relate to the matter, not the reality of the matter itself.

       If God does exist

This alternative should take into account the following realities: God is invisible (a reality often overlooked by those who think otherwise). God has performed miracles in the past and can perform them in the future. When we look at it from an astronomical perspective, the question arises: is there evidence in creation of miracles performed by God? It can be noted that the Bible tells of two miracles that had an impact on astronomical observations. The first was in the days of Joshua around 1472 BCE. At that time, the earth’s rotation stopped for about 8 hours. The second was in the days of Hezekiah around 731 BCE. At that.time, the earth rotated backward for about an hour. Is there any astronomical evidence for this? NASA has compiled a list of ancient solar eclipses. This list goes back many thousands of years. Are there any records of solar eclipses in history? There are several. They all testify that these miracles mentioned in the Bible really happened. Solar eclipses are found precisely according to the periods stated in the Bible, that the position of the Earth has changed by up to 9 hours in the old world time compared to this time. Here, the rotation of the Earth refers to its rotation around its axis, not the Earth's orbit around the Sun. Someone may say that such is not possible. Then the realities must be taken into account:

If God exists, then it is possible. Secondly, the realities of God's existence are different from if we consider based on the assumption that God does not exist.

        A brief assessment can be made

The shifting of these solar eclipse locations on NASA maps to different time zones than how people originally saw them would seem to prove clearly that God exists, regardless of what people want to believe. This is because it is unlikely that such solar eclipses would occur in exactly the right year and month by pure chance. This conclusion is emphasized by the fact that there is more than one of these solar eclipses and they have all been “shifted” the same number of time zones to the side from where they are reported to have occurred.

This evidence is not going away, no matter how much people want to believe otherwise.

   APPENDIX:

Since someone might wonder what could be the solar eclipses like the one mentioned above, which archaeology tells us about, a short list is made here. The archaeological mention is in parentheses.

In this list, attention may be drawn, for example, to the reigns of the kings of Assyria and Babylon. Here, the feature that concerns the option “If God exists” must be taken into account. When applying that option, a few other things must be taken into account. In this option, the Bible is the most accurate chronologist of history, while human research is mere guesswork.

2nd April 824 BCE (In the month of Simanu, in the 9th year of the reign of Ashur-Dan III, king of Assyria)

20th May 1078 BCE (In the month of Simanu, in the 7th year of Shimbar-Shibak, king of Babylon)

8th January 1340 BCE (In the 10th year of the reign of the Hittite king Mursili II)

22nd July 1472 BCE. (Mentioned only in the pages of the Bible during the battle of Joshua. According to Israeli scholars, a solar eclipse occurred at that time)

19th October 1746 BCE (One year after the birth of Assyrian king Shamsi-Adad I)

15th October 1979 BCE (In the 23rd year of the reign of King Shulgi of the Ur III dynasty)

23rd January 2207 BCE (During the reign of Sargon of Akkad, while he was on his way to conquer Simurru)

Note: There is an interesting and rather peculiar coincidence associated with these solar eclipses: the solar eclipses of 1746 BCE, 1979 BCE, and 2207 BCE all occurred according to the Babylonian ultra low chronology and fall in the correct years.
