The existence of higher power can be proven but it's not something all people believe.

Your perspective on the existence of a higher power is quite interesting, and it highlights the complex interplay between belief, spirituality, and individual experiences. It's true that many people associate the concept of a higher power or deity with organized religion, but there are also individuals who may not identify with a particular religion while still feeling a connection to something greater than themselves. This can manifest in various forms, such as a sense of awe about the universe, nature, or human connections.

It's also important to acknowledge the diversity of beliefs and experiences regarding spirituality. Some people find meaning and fulfillment outside traditional religious frameworks, exploring philosophical or personal interpretations of a higher power. Conversely, others derive their sense of purpose and understanding of the world through structured religious practices and teachings.

Respecting differing beliefs is crucial, as you noted. Open dialogue and mutual understanding can foster a more inclusive environment where people feel valued, regardless of whether they subscribe to a particular belief system. Ultimately, everyone's journey in exploring the concept of a higher power is personal, and it's vital to approach these conversations with empathy and respect for different viewpoints.
