then he is no god i would EVER embrace.
The point is that Spinoza/Einstein's God is not a person.
No, your god is limited.thedoc wrote:chaz wyman wrote:

Then your 'God' is very limited and I do not see God as having limits.
BTW, God does not 'give' you anything that you do not ask for.

Human imagination knows no limits but the truth is somewhat more limited in scope, so since most philosophers are just making shit up that would lead to quite a variety of nonsense being published, as opposed to a very small amount of actual knowledge.

That's the whole point. only a limited god would give you what you asked for.
I don't 'have a god', I was talking about Spinoza's and Einstein's concept.

You asked the dumb question not me!
The designer gave us life. In designing a universe where life exists.
Prove it! What designer?
And we live . But what upsets, is that we are an effect. In designing this universe. The Designer
forgot the roaches. Thats us.
No, the roaches are the roaches- we are the humans (or I am, don't know about you)

God answers nothing whatever- it only adds more questions.

I would leave off now. Just a suggestion.
You DO NOT want Doc and Prill on yo ass about god.While doc is a traditionalist and forgiving.. Im a lot less forgiving in the use of
my skills to put down idiots.
Have you ever watched a butcher at his trade.
But , you may be so stupid in reason as to not know you are.. like a cow.

You quoted me "Why is 'a' god required to give anyone anything."
and thus.. you are fair game... hehe
level 0ne [01]
What designer? Step one. what is hydrogen. a proton and an electron.
why do they have opposite charges .. thus being atoms. or 'pairs'
They were the FIRST material thing produced by the bang.
Even at the bang. deuterium. a neutron.. where did neutron come from.?
Why was it required>
Laws.
Like why you quiver when confronted by policemen with guns.
Laws
just a very small taste.

There is no evidence, religion does not deal in evidence only belief. If you want evidence as proof you are in the wrong place, you need to be in math or science. In religion the question often is the answer.chaz wyman wrote:Stupid?
