    INDISPUTABLE Rational Proof That God Exists (Or Existed)

    All of your arguments do nothing to impress upon me that God exists or existed. There is no such thing as indisputable proof of God because he does not exist.

    INDISPUTABLE Rational Proof That God Exists (Or Existed)

    Here's the thing about God. He may exist or he may not. That's as close as we can get to an answer. You could even argue that he exists if You want him to. There is no proof positive or negative of God's existence. Believe if you wish, but know that faith does not equal fact.

    Hello Again

    I'm not a new member, but I've been away for so long and changed so much I feel like I need to reintroduce myself. Hi. :-)

    The Ontological Argument for God's existence

    Your argument is flawed. I don't list all of my grievances here but theses are my main ones. 1. You cannot prove God's necessity, especially on a specific plane of existence. 2. You cannot prove his maximal greatness. 3. Because there is no logical way to disprove your argument, it is not a...

    Anthropomorphizing God

    There's a simple answer to this: it makes God easier to relate to. When you can more easily make his views your own, whether right or wrong, he becomes easier to follow.

    Jesus went to Hell

    Your last line intrigues me. If he didn't die for our sins what did he die for?

    Did God create evil?

    I like Dante's Inferno, the game is pretty fun too. If God created existence, all that is in it is directly or indirectly created by him and as such, is his responsibility. Either way, God at least knew about evil ahead of time.

    Jesus went to Hell

    A seemingly obvious bit of Christ's journey that was conveniently left out of the Bible is that when Jesus died on the cross he went to hell. This is supported by the fact that "sin cannot exist I'm God's presence" and poor Jesus just absorbed the sum total of all of humanity's sin. In fact, if...

    Black and White: Science Explains Relativism

    I actually have an interest in both, and try to combine them whenever feasible. I think I may check out the Semantic Theory of Truth.

    Black and White: Science Explains Relativism

    Your last sentence just gave us an example of relativism. On a computer screen, a red image is truly red, but off screen, a red object is not truly red. Both views of red are true within their own domains (with the exception of red light bulbs in your friendly neighborhood "Red Light District").

    Black and White: Science Explains Relativism

    That is why I said "to put it simply", I didn't want to risk losing the reader's attention with that. Thanks for noticing though, I was wondering if anyone would catch onto that. I agree with you that perception varies from person to person, but with each perception comes what a person...

    The Danger of Chaos Magic

    No thank you, not right now at least. I'm still trying to forget my bad mentors words >.>

    Black and White: Science Explains Relativism

    My apologies if this is in the wrong forum, please move it if it belongs elsewhere. What is relativism you ask? To put it simply, relativism is the belief that truth varies from person to person, based on how the perceive an event or series of events. Relativism is the bane of many...

    Steven Hawking warns not to talk to aliens

    The problem with talking to aliens is the unpredictability it brings to the table. If they are anything like us biologically (breathe oxygen, need water, arrogant as hell), don't you find it even remotely possible that they may wipe out humanity and colonize earth. I'd rather not risk it. I...

    Sociopathy and Salvation

    psychopathy and sociopathy are often considered synonymous, but really they're two different sides of the same disorder. Antisocial Personality Disorder is the root of both conditions, a psychopath is impulsive, emotional, amoral, and quite violent when worked up (they are more likely to become...

    Original Sin: We Exist, Therefore we are Bad

    Eh, it's horribly cliche, but it's true to some extent. If God exists, we are unworthy of his affections.

    "God" is such a nebulous term.

    I've never heard of God pertaining to the sum total of reality. It sounds interesting. To me, God is the Abrahamic god. Though I don't have a choke hold on the name, I accept that other religions use the name and will even use God to refer to other deities if it comes up. But the first thing...

    Sociopathy and Salvation

    Before we begin, I need to define Sociopathy: To put it simply, the person in question has little to no emotional response. Hannibal Lecter is a good example, as he was a cold, calculating person. Now that we have that out of the way, I've been wondering about this for a while but I'd...

    The Danger of Chaos Magic

    Go back and reread my posts, I explain why I said what I said. I'm not typing it all again.

    Why do you teach your children your belief?

    For this sentence alone, you have my respect. Any parent who is willing to allow their child to search for the answers they want, thus allowing that child to develop an open mind and a very respectable intellect, is a good parent. Regardless of their faith or lack thereof.
