afaik its estimated the earth is 4.5 billion years of age. to my mind thats proof that god is either lazy (before he got around to creating mankind), or does not exist.

everyone is free to their own opinions and beliefs and its normal in backward societies around the world to believe in otherworldly deities. and yes, by this i mean all societies are still backwards. While this can be considered a failing of our species I would not deem it a failure of society but rather a product of our current level of mental strength / comprehension.


consider this

Abrahamic perspective: God created the universe in an instant from nothing

Scientific perspective: The universe was created from a singularity (i.e. nothing) in an instant (the big bang theory)

The religious perspective came thousands of years before science caught up.

This proves that God is indeed real.

evidently not because you believe earth it what? 5000 years old? :bonk:


I have never made that argument. what your doing is called a strawman. It is a logical fallacy. Its an admission on your part that you have lost the argument. :)

to make things simple. to date the place first you would have to know the original conditions of what your dating. assumptions are made to get that date. In other word "they making chit up". what I am saying it the age of the place in unknowable.

then the big pain come with simulation hypothesis and that is from the institution of science. how quickly the super duper "scientific" atheist/antitheists dismiss science and reason when it conflicts with their woo woo religion. what I am saying is atheists/antitheists are the biggest woo woo religious nutters there is.

you're quoting a script as a rebuttle that replaces your own autonomy. the bible would call what you just did "dead via a dead letter" rather than a living personal testimony.

you are both alike, unbelievers.

God is Everything and Everything is God - He is usually personified as 'He' only because we have no other way to describe it and humans are made in His image so the idea is that our human form is His chosen form

My personal belief is that God is both Transcendent and Immanent

We cannot even begin to comprehend a physical form of God. He is above our level of knowledge, essentially. He is an idea, a feeling, the origin of the transcendent moral good.

Think of God as such:

First start with a thought experiment: Does Fear exist? Does Love exist?

We can both probably agree with the answer of 'yes' to each proposal.

But: What is fear? is fear a man, a woman, sentient, or self-aware?

We can easily say no to all these questions. Fear does not have a physical form, sentience, or any kind of material explanation.

We can both probably agree that fear and love are emotions.

This is why if you look at old-school polytheism, the Gods all represented some form of emotion or other intangible idea - like Janus, the God of "new beginnings" or "open doors" in Rome, who represents uncertainty in a sense. (January is named after Janus, the first month of the year). So, if you practiced Roman polytheism, you might pray to Janus before starting a new job (a new beginning)

Then there is Mars, the God of War (representing the emotion of Anger or Wrath)

The monotheistic God is all emotion, feeling, and transcendent truth rolled together into a singularity.
