The Secret of "God"

[Human][-ity] doesn’t absolutely know [God]. (Christians, in particular, are blatant, lying hypocrites to the spiritually divine eyes)

[God] doesn’t absolutely know [human][-ity]. (The Secret of “God”)

Huh?

Yeah, I consider myself pretty well-adapted to thinking about God (I’m sort of a neo-atheist-theist, supposing that makes any sense to anyone but me), and even I have no idea what this is supposed to mean.

The secret of ‘God’ or the secret of those who claim not to judge but rather allow ‘God’ to judge and by doing do allow themselves to judge?

I am an avid theist and am moved by atheist rhetoric, because it helps to temper and strengthen faith and understanding. I do concur that humanity does not know that God exists, but is called to believe that He exists, because God has endowed us with the freedom of religion and the ability to doubt or deny. This freedom allows for a non-coercive relationship. I believe that we are called to believe and that no one knows about God’s existence because if we did, we would have certainty that would lead us to laziness and would have no challenge to grow, whereas if we knew that God did not exist, we would be more inclined to despair, indulge in every pleasure, etc. One does not have to engage in those consequential actions because of our freedom to act, but those are the general inclinations.

As regards the idea of the absolute, it really only has to be anything that is qualitatively more than relativity. For example, infinity is qualitatively more than any finite number; infinity is always larger than any finite number. Absolute standards are always more absolute than any relative standard. So, God really just has to be above any relative standard, and thus the absolute is possible and God can absolutely know humanity. I think that humanity can absolutely know God, but has not been given that access yet. Examine how your faith moves you to accomplish things and to defend your beliefs.

Additionally, in an agnostic vein, if one would challenge any argument, one would see that there is a counter-argument or pro or con in everything. We have to qualitatively choose what we value and are totally existentially free to do so, and I think that both atheists and theists would profit from having faith that they can dismantle their own beliefs.

I am not willing to fall into any religious arguments Yet AGAIN. Although I do believe that the very point of religion is to keep one satisfied, under control, and with an ultimate goal in life. Whether He exists or not, I do not care to debate about. That is one’s choice to believe, not for me to make them believe.

God secretly wears pink boxers with hearts on them… :-"

Jeez, now I really would prefer hell , thanks joker.

Personally, since “know” does not take an adjective, some men are illiterate.

I mean, even as simple as Aristotle was, he knew that if a word took one of a pair it could take the other

[God] doesn’t relatively know [human][-ity]. #-o

And I would be ashamed to say what God did or did not know, if I did not know what God was, or if it existed. I would tend to think that if names are conventional, and they must be to effect language, that if one has not been able to abstract any reference from that which is named, that word was a NOP.

It is written that Lucid Dreaming would be taken from man for such a long time that he would forget what it was, well it is back. See if you know how it works—relatively that is. :blush:

I personally do not profess any religion–but personal experience, well, it can really scare you, if you realize the meaning of it all.

What does it mean when you are shown things that come to pass? What does it have to do with the definition of the mind, and will? Study Gorgias.

Hypocracy starts with the vanity of thinking you know what you do not know–and that, my friend, has no boundaries other than the entire human race.

He is as ignorant of us as we are ignorant of Him.

Assuming God exists.

The secret of God is a secret, and hes not going to tell you what it is.

Unless you get him stoned.

Id love to get stoned with God

No kidding. Especially if he provides the weed. I picture his weed looking like this:

I don’t know, I am sure he could mess with your head better than any one could, Just think what he could do if he thought you were Bogarting the smoke… I think I would rather get drunk with God on just beer then I might be somewhat in control, maybe, probably not but it sure would be fun to try. He probably would want the last beer, that could cause an issue. :laughing:

Im more in control on weed, way more
