    God is a Duality not a Trinity

    I'm curious to know how these people who allegedly added the Holy Ghost into the doctrinal mix as some sort of personage hundreds of years after Jesus died viewed using some sort of "great spirit" for making doctrinal proclamations before Christianity. Is this a pagan practice?

    Answer to Paradox of Stone

    It's not that it's self-defeating; it's just beyond human comprehension.

    Answer to Paradox of Stone

    Well in that case God is able to time travel to an imaginary future (I'm talking imaginary as in imaginary numbers because a rock that endlessly gains weight never arrives at this perfect future) and pick up the rock at the end of all times and at the end of all things then time travel back to...

    Answer to Paradox of Stone

    In the end I'm going to use Kilgore Trout's comments as a copout. It's just a silly, little world game that tries illustrate God's omnipotence. But it has its glitch.

    Answer to Paradox of Stone

    Yes it would because a God made it. God can make something that NEVER STOPS having weight added to it.

    Any Atheists Ever Had A "Spiritual" Experience?

    Pretty smart. You think both theism and atheism lead to unfulfilled expectations just like the person stuck in the schizophrenia and the outside observer won't find any evidence of their contradicting theories as to the cause of the delusions. I still have to disagree on the hatchet theory...

    God is a Duality not a Trinity

    I think you're wrong. The Holy Ghost is a person just as much as the Father and the Son are persons. But, unlike the Father and the Son, he is only a spirit and does not have a body of flesh and bones. He looks like the preexistent Jesus (Jehovah). In the beginning of Genesis 1, Ruach Elohim...

    God is a Duality not a Trinity

    Interesting, but I'll stick to my beliefs on this one because I happen to know the Jews of the time were looking for a human sacrifice to fulfill the law of Moses and some saw this foretold-of Messiah who was supposed to be the king of Israel as the perfect "Lamb of God" (Jews sacrificed lambs...

    God is a Duality not a Trinity

    Please tell more about son of God and crucifixion stories emerging 40 to 50 years after Jesus was murdered. What were the stories before that?

    God is a Duality not a Trinity

    All it's trying to say is that Mary conceiving Jesus was an act of the Holy Ghost i.e. it didn't require sex and thus Mary was still a virgin after the affair. But Jesus is the Son of the Father, not of the Holy Ghost, and when the Holy Ghost impregnated Mary it was with God the Father's sperm...

    Why Did God Create Man?

    In the beginning, God was a spirit surrounded by nothing. Either a minute spec of sentience without what we would call physical matter, or a vast mist of intelligence that enveloped the infinite realm of space (outer space). We know that God was once a spirit because God calls himself a spirit...

    Answer to Paradox of Stone

    This opens up a can of philosophical worms. First, I am considering that God is greater than any of his creations. So to call the rock in this paradox God seems somewhat blasphemous. That would be like calling a fly God. Also, any of God's creative activity is not as great as God Himself...

    Answer to Paradox of Stone

    But a rock of increasing weight cannot be lifted instantly...He has to keep applying force as the weight increases. Thus, he never finishes the work of lifting the rock. Yet, at every instant, he is holding the rock up.

    Any Atheists Ever Had A "Spiritual" Experience?

    That's not rational at all. If there was ever nothing, there would still be nothing. But we have a lot more than nothing in our universe. We have intelligent life. Just like humans can create electronic computers that can practically think, humans had to have an intelligent designer. The...

    Communication with God

    I think when you said that repeatedly talking to an entity that never responds is psychologically unsound you were trying to make it sound as if God talking to us through prayer is very possible. Sort of like flaunting your high level of spirituality. But the truth is that most people never...

    Any Atheists Ever Had A "Spiritual" Experience?

    If you found a bronze hatchet on the ground in a cave, would you assume that the hatchet formed by random processes or that an intelligent designer i.e. a human crafted it? This thought experiment undermines how I see nature and even man-made creations. I see something even as ugly as a fly or...

    Historicity Of Christ?

    I don't get why people automatically want to assume that some of Jesus' stories had to have been mythical. They're not that hard to believe, IMO. For example, there are magicians who have done more perplexing magic tricks than drawing enough fish and bread to feed a whole village from a few...

    Any Atheists Ever Had A "Spiritual" Experience?

    I think knowing for certain that there is a God is utterly irrational as even my own religion teaches that we're not supposed to know God in this life like we knew him when we lived with Him or like we will know him when we return to live with Him. But it is not utterly irrational to see the...

    You are very lucky if you haven't encountered any proof for the existence of gods as they have the power to totally f up your life!
