That would depend upon your perception of Gods, your experiences, personality and also your physical genetic makeup. A one god fits all is impossible. That is why we must depend upon our ownself to be resonsible not a God. We must know and raise ourself to a higher standard,
A god cannot do this, unless it physically aproaches the vast majority of humans with the same idealogy. Right now all humans can do is is have faith that other humans may know what they are talking about when it comes to Gods. We don’t trust the God as much as we put faith in other humans. Humans do not trust others that are not of their group. So until a god puts in an actual physical appearence well, we must depend upon ourselves and others.
I’ve actually observed the same trend. An amusing observation I had in one of Mick’s threads
Which is one of the reasons why I think there is great value to be found in religious authority or authority of any sort, really. Of course, that immediately segues into a discussion on “good authority” vs. “bad authority” but for the moment we can put that aside.
If all a philosophy does is justify what you are already doing, why bother having studied it in the first place?
You see,… someone called the sun a God because it was the only thing vast enough to fullfill the idea of God in their mind. But God isn’t forged by physical definitions. Physical definitions are our limitation of understanding God.
Man’s will alone will only recieve what man is willing to admit.
Reality is that energy independent of space and time and matter would allow God to be omnipotent by nature. Thus one God for all is the truth. Definitions of God’s will is limited by the user. Don’t tell me your better then me at seeing God’s will.
Well, I won’t tell you that I am better at seeing God’s will then you. Never had any intentions of that, in fact, I am just utterly amazed that you know God’s will. Finally a human that sees God’s will. So what is God’s will?
I learned to understand God. I wasn’t pompus enough to assume I could create a philosophy that is inharently right. I assumed that we as people are inept, and all we could do is look to God for the answers.
Jeez make up your mind will you , is it nature or will you want? First God’s will, now God’s nature, pick one will you. I would put a foot tappin emoticon here but, since there is not one please insert your imagination of one here…
Lol!!! I really don’t know how to respond to this other than just laughing. You obviously jump to too many conclusions faster than I can dissect your reasoning for the things you say.
I guess I just get irritated. Imagine reducing the infinacy of God to a scientific mindset that only admits the facts that fit a certain formula. They are willing to give theories baced on an admitted limited perspective. But I am willing to make definitions based on the effect of God as witnessed by me. I guess I am inharently bias or ignorant by nature, and science is created to remove common sence, and concious, and moral thought.
Now these same scientific minds will create huge theories of belief, but will use science as a crutch to dominate philosophy. They eliminate any theory that doesn’t have a bacis of pre-ordained thought. So doing the ideal thing of catching science in the midst of action, and theorizing on the cause and effect without knowing the source, well that’s pompus and arrogant to them. Yet, to call them assumptious because they are admitted to having a limited perspective, but still make theories…
