Semi-Serious Question about God.
Okay.

Assumption:

God exists.


Defining Constants:

God is all knowing, all powerful, all present.
An atheist does not follow any religion.


Logic path:

There is no one or no thing greater then god.
There is no entity for God to worship.

God is an Atheist.


Errors in my logic?
If you see something, say nothing, and drink to forget.

Error #1 in logic.

Defining Constants:

God is all knowing, all powerful, all present.
 Quoting: Bob

It's impossible to be all three, it's a logical false flag. If you're all knowing, then you know what is going to happen and therefore are powerless to prevent it or do anything besides what you know is going to happen.

Therefore nothing can be both all knowing and all powerful. That isn't even bringing up the all present, which even increases the logical impossibility of being both all knowing and all powerful.

An atheist does not follow any religion.

There is no one or no thing greater then god.

 Quoting: antaun


So you postulate that God believes that he IS a God, and therefore, worships himself.

I would counter with:
A God is a God only to a lesser being.
God IS God, the highest possible being.
God cannot be less then himself.
God cannot worship himself as a God.

I would also counter with:
Belief is faith.
Faith is not based on knowledge.
God KNOWS he exists, he does not BELIEVE he exists.
God has knowledge of his existence, not faith.
God doesn't believe in himself, he knows he exists and he wouldn't have any doubt.
God couldn't make that 'leap of faith' that most religions require.


So, again, I return to, God is an Atheist.

Ahem.

I point to the word on top: ASSUMPTION.
That mean that for the purposes of this argument, you have to assume that that God exists.

Ya know what? I was going to tear apart the rest of your post, but I just realized you are too stupid to have any opinion that I want to know. If you can't figure out what assumption means, there's no point in talking to you.

Stop posting on my thread. The guy who was talking about Dog Ass has more to contribute then you.

 Quoting: mTs


So, you are saying that God can do anything, even impossible things, so God is a Atheist and Not an Atheist at the same time?

If so, That's an interesting solution to the problem
God is a Quantum state of being.

I would counter with God is All things, which means he isn't the Absence of something.

God can be a Rock, but God can't be Not-Rock.

So God can be an Atheist, but not the Absence of Atheist.

Thread: i want my own planet someday :/ (Page 2)

I dont know how yet. LOL - you need to investigate the Mormons then. I think they believe when they die, they will be a god and have their own planet, or solar system, or something like that - I'm not sure... Perhaps one of them will shed some light for you -
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 676821
 

Latter-day Saints believe that we come to the earth to take a physical body, to be schooled and trained and gain experiences here that we could not have in the premortal life, and then to seek to grow in faith and spiritual graces until we can qualify to go where God and Christ are. But they believe that eternal life consists in more than being with God; it entails being like God. 

A study of the Christian church reveals that the doctrine of the deification of man was taught at least into the fifth century by such notables as Irenaeus, Clement of Alexandria, Justin Martyr, Athanasius, and Augustine. Latter-day Saints would probably not agree with most of what was taught about deification by the early Christian church leaders, because they believe that many of the plain and precious truths concerning God and man had been lost by then. But I mention this to illustrate that the idea was not foreign to the people of the early church; the names mentioned were not pagan or Gnostic spokesmen but Christian.

... Those holy beings are and forever will be the Gods men and women worship. Men and women, like Christ, are made in the image and likeness of God, that it is not robbery to be equal with God (Philippians 2:6), and that like any father, our Heavenly Father wants his children to become and be all that he is. Spiritual growth to this lofty plain is not something that comes merely through hard work, though men and women are expected to do their best to keep their covenantal obligations. Deification is accomplished finally through the grace and goodness of Jesus Christ, who seeks that all of us might become joint heirs, co-inheritors with him, to all the Father has. (Romans 8:14-18.) - [link to www.lightplanet.com]

Exactly.

If God exists and He is all knowing, All seeing, all powerful, and All present, then there is no free will, because all possible outcomes have already occurred.

Which is completely off topic to my question.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 804868




What an apex of Spiritual retardation, first, the "future" is the past as far as God is concerned, and all that could be done, is currently being done to prevent whatever your small mind thinks needs to be prevented.

Secondly, just because He is all Knowing, does not mean that He is powerless to do anything about something, for He is also "All Powerful".

And lastly, God's wisdom is far greater than anything human logic can conceive. He knows the Future, because to Him, it is the past, it is all one, and He has provided all things to work acording to His will. Nothing "slips by Him".

Hope this helps, but I doubt it.

But even though God is all these things, it still does not negate the personal responsibility that freewill provides to the individual. You can't blame God for your mistakes just because He knew you were going to commit them, The mistakes, and their consequences are still yours to have because He does honor freewill.

Just because He knows the future, does not release you from responsibility for you do have a choice. And that is why you are a spiritual retard.

No.

You state that God BELIEVES in himself.

Belief is an act of faith.
Example: I believe there is a salad on the table in the other room.

Now, I might be wrong, because I cannot see the other room and the salad may have been knocked to the floor by a cat in search of bacon bits. There is a possibility that I am wrong, so I cannot say with absolute certainty that there is a salad ON the table. I merely believe it so, since I have no evidence to the contrary.


So, By your statements, God is not an Atheist, because, on some level, he knows there is a possibility that he doesn't exist.

Correct?

good explanation.
The problem is you need a true definition of God.

He defines himself in the Holy bible as the generator of the flow of time.

This forward/backward time flow is being examined.

Sigh.

Okay, Off topic, but I'll deal with this one.

If God is as I defined him, then there is no free will in the classic sense.

That would mean, that all the choices have already been made and we're just living out the results of those choices. You can believe that means you have free will, and that you already made the choices before you were born.

Since we already made our choices, then this entire argument is pointless, since we already had it.

I would also counter with:

 Quoting: Bob

a=b is false

Belief is not faith

Belief is what a man thinks to be true

Faith is what a man knows to be true because it has been experienced

And yes I know, todays usage of faith is "I really really really believe so strongly, that it is true, to the contrary of any and all evidence."

In other words "I am willfully ignorant"
