Infinete Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 i dint actually believe in god ii just very very bored and thought that this seemed clever. "If you do not believe in god, then you must believe you were an accident, therefor all of your bthoughts an actions are accidents, including your disbelief in god", what do you think, and do you have any conundrums.
Kav Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 good thought there but how about this we weren't created by accident, just by chance, it was neither a mistake nor deliberate. therefore i still don't believe in god
Rolf Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 An 'accident' can only exist within absolute parameters. And everybody knows that 'only the Sith deal in absolutes'.
MunKy Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 good thought there but how about this we weren't created by accident, just by chance, it was neither a mistake nor deliberate. therefore i still don't believe in god What he said. Lifes all about chances and choices.
Infinete Posted November 20, 2005 Author Posted November 20, 2005 What he said. Lifes all about chances and choices. but then i guess the ultimate question would be do we have a choice, or is it already made for us and we must find out why and accept it??
Indigo Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 good thought there but how about this we weren't created by accident, just by chance, it was neither a mistake nor deliberate. therefore i still don't believe in god Stating "we are simply here by chance, and thats all" doesn't answer the question of "why is there a universe?", and thus does nothing to disprove the existence of a divine being. As Copleston once said, "If one refuses to even sit down at the chess board and make a move, one cannot, of course, be checkmated."
Athriller Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 "Why is there something rather than nothing?"
Infinete Posted November 20, 2005 Author Posted November 20, 2005 another question i have always wondered is that if space is always expanding (which it is) then what is it filling, and can we go there, i also semi believe in hawking theory of black holes.
MoogleViper Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 "Why is there something rather than nothing?" The world we know is false. It is a mere illlusion from the realities of the other side.
Infinete Posted November 20, 2005 Author Posted November 20, 2005 id probably have to agree with you on this one
Athriller Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 Global scepticism is a stupid theory in my eyes. Is it possible? Yes. Is it likely? Fuck that.
MoogleViper Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 id probably have to agree with you on this one Yes. Finally a weirdo who thinks like me. Come on my fellow Phsychoped let us creep out the other forumers by pulling horrific faces at them. *gurns*
Infinete Posted November 20, 2005 Author Posted November 20, 2005 Yes. Finally a weirdo who thinks like me. Come on my fellow Phsychoped let us creep out the other forumers by pulling horrific faces at them. *gurns* indeed, as we need to lift the wool from our eyes and see the truth for once.
Rolf Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 The world we know is false. It is a mere illlusion from the realities of the other side.Would you care to elaborate on that for those of us who aren't pretentious and lame?
Arragaun Posted November 21, 2005 Posted November 21, 2005 How about the benevolent/omnipotent one? If God's benevolent and omnipotent, why does he let bad things happen? Maybe he's omnipotent, but not benevolent, in which case he is malevolent. Maybe he's benevolent, but not ominpotent, in which case, why call him God? (I recalled this from a program I watched in which some actor recited this verse of some guy, maybe Plato, in the same way I've recited it...ie pretentiously)
The3rdChildren Posted November 21, 2005 Posted November 21, 2005 do you have any conundrums. THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID. OOOOOH. [edit] My mom said it. My dad said no. Here I am. That's the joke.
blumeanie. Posted November 21, 2005 Posted November 21, 2005 Philosophy, good thread man . There is a god ,of sorts. It is too psychologicaly dangerous to consider ourselves without one (according to some anyway) . Belief in a god can be and is uttillised to absolve us from the responsibility of our actions so there will always be a god . Benevolence and Omnipotence are subjects experienced from the human perspective on reallity and therefor cannot be applied as a form of moral guidance to a being that is considered unearthly and all knowing. ( that dosent make me religious does it ?.)
