God and the Totality of Being as a Hallucination
God and the Totality of Being as a Hallucination
A definition of God includes "all that exists" thus equating a belief in all existence as existing to a hallucination, ie God is a hallucination, is to result in contradiction given one is calling the very totality of reality they live in to a hallucination.

Re: God and the Totality of Being as a Hallucination
I posted this thread;
Your brain hallucinates your conscious reality
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=25316&p=379628&hil ... ty#p379628
Thus reality - all-there-is in one perspective is a hallucination or illusion as argued above.
But note illusions come in many types and in various degrees along a continuum.
In general there are empirical related illusion and transcendental illusions.
Empirical related illusions can be verified empirically and philosophically.
A 'mirage' of an oasis in the middle of a desert can be verified empirically whether it is real empirically or not.
An empirical oasis, albeit a meta-illusion, can be verified to be empirically real or false.
On the other hand, God as a transcendental illusion is based on Pure Reasoning i.e. based on thoughts only which cannot be verified empirically to be real at all.
Note again,
God is an Impossibility to be real.

Point is theists are using their Pure Reason to pseudo-reason that God is not an illusion but transcend reason and unreason.Belinda wrote: ↑Fri Dec 18, 2020 12:32 pm Veritas Aequitas wrote:

Point is 'pure reason' is very naked [empty of reality], raw and crude which has the tendency to jump to conclusion quickly based on some rickety syllogism. This tendency as I had argued is driven by some existential crisis.
The principle of 'cause and effect' is very basic and obvious within empiricism.
But pure reason relies on the cause-effect in jumping to a hasty conclusion into la la land, i.e. there is a final-cause without any solid justification.
Note this thread;
From 'No Man's Land' to 'La La Land'
This is why Kant in his Critique of Pure Reason came up with severe criticisms of Plato, the Theologians [Schoolmen], and theists who jumped to the conclusion "God exists as real" without solid justifications.

From what I am observing here, you are just 'trying to' provide some 'thing', which you think, believe, or hope, would back up and support your ALREADY gained and held beliefs and assumptions.
By the way, you are FAILING. See, the very reason WHY I define 'God', in the physical sense, as the physical Universe, itself, was so to overcome what 'you' are now 'trying to' insist here is true, and which 'you' are 'trying to' argue for.

Oh, and by the way, if 'God' is an empirical 'Thing', then, OBVIOUSLY, God can BE verified empirically to be REAL, and True.

God as the physical universe itself is not only your underlying belief and assumption but "you are just 'trying to' provide some 'thing', which you think, believe, or hope, would back up and support your ALREADY gained and held beliefs and assumptions" in this case a belief in matter as a thing in itself.
God would be matter self referencing itself through various shapes and forms, matter is self referencing and as self referential has a degree of consciousness. The totality of matter, with matter being the foundation of being, necessitates God, as all being (with all being being material), being material or rather matter itself.

Re: God and the Totality of Being as a Hallucination
Sinning is the absence of God as the limits of Gods existence within a particular context. Sin is the limits of God existence through being thus underlying only that which exists as good.

Re: God and the Totality of Being as a Hallucination
Therefore, THE definition of 'God', which, supposedly, includes "all that exists", would NOT WORK within the True and FULL, particular, context.Eodnhoj7 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 3:20 amSinning is the absence of God as the limits of Gods existence within a particular context.Age wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 3:01 am'Being omnipresent' also relates to 'being present', that is; in relation to what is 'being observed'. SEE, what is observed is physical matter, and since, according to 'you', God is mandated to be connected through all being under observation, then this STILL fits PERFECTLY with what I have observed and with 'That', which UNIFIES and EXPLAINS ALL-OF-THIS.
Your definition of, and for the, word 'God' here STILL fits PERFECTLY, with what 'God' ACTUALLY IS. Which is NOT "all that exists".
If, and when, you become curious ENOUGH, then you ALSO will SEE and UNDERSTAND 'this'.
So, what you are essentially saying here is, to 'you', if 'you' perceive 'God' to be the SINNING and the WRONG, which ONLY adult human beings do, then that IS what 'you' ARE. However, if this is Wrong or Incorrect, then PLEASE feel FREE to CORRECT 'me' here.

SEE, ' 'God' as the physical universe itself' is NOT some thing that I BELIEVE, NOR ASSUME, AT ALL.
That is what I have OBSERVED, which COULD BE COMPLETELY and UTTERLY False, Wrong, and/or Incorrect. BUT, I can ACTUALLY back up AND support this VIEW, with ACTUAL EVIDENCE and PROOF.
So, 'you' were COMPLETELY WRONG, AGAIN.
I have ALREADY AGREED with this.
And, by the way, I can ACTUALLY back this up AND support this with ACTUAL EVIDENCE and PROOF.
Okay, if you say so.
"FAILING" in 'what', EXACTLY?
WHAT?
Since when has there been a, so called, "natural law", which has a conception or preconception of 'bad'.
IF the, so called, "formation of a child" is 'good' or 'bad', then this is ONLY because of what 'you', human beings, think or BELIEVE.
'good' or 'bad' are only views, or 'things', from and of human beings ONLY. For example, 'rape', itself, is NEITHER 'good' NOR 'bad', just like, 'the formation of a child is NEITHER 'good' NOR 'bad'. These 'things' HAPPEN, and HAPPEN NATURALLY.
If you say so, then okay.
For one, where you wrote:
A definition of God includes "all that exists"
I do NOT agree with this. As EXPLAINED above.
'That', which you are (badly worded) "WRONG ON", is by starting a sentence with:
A definition of God includes "all that exists"
And then using 'that' OBVIOUSLY Wrong AND Incorrect definition to 'try to' "back up" and "support" ABSOLUTELY ANY thing else which you want to CLAIM is true.
I suggest that if you want to 'fight' or 'argue' against other human beings, then just use 'that' what is ACTUALLY True, Right, and/or Correct.
But I am NOT assuming ANY thing AT ALL like this what YOU CLAIM here. I have NEVER EVEN ASSUMED ANY thing AT ALL like this. In fact, I do NOT even agree with ANY thing AT ALL like this.
So, WHY have 'you' ASSUMED what 'you' have, HERE?
I have NEVER even said, let alone meant, ANY thing even remotely close to what you have said here. So, what the 'things' were which caused 'you' to come to ASSUME such a thing as 'you' have here, only 'you' would Truly KNOW.

If you SAY SO, and BELIEVE SO, then 'it' MUST BE SO, correct?Eodnhoj7 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 3:23 amThe act of imprinting, as accepting a phenomenon for what it is, is assumption.Age wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 3:17 amANY argument that uses words that are NOT "assumed" to mean some 'thing' but which are ACTUALLY AGREED WITH and ACCEPTED to mean some 'thing' IS an example of an argument which is NOT grounded in an ASSUMPTION.
Also, EVERY 'thing' which is OBSERVED, or NOTICED, and EXPERIENCED imprints itself upon the 'psyche'. But how much or for how long is another matter.
And, if this IS CORRECT, and therefore is just YOUR OWN ASSUMPTION, then are you FULLY AWARE that 'ASSUMPTIONS', themselves could be COMPLETELY and UTTERLY False, Wrong, and/or Incorrect?
If no, then you are NOW.
NOW, remember that ALL ASSUMPTIONS are based on NOTHING AT ALL but just a GUESS, which ALL guesses can OBVIOUSLY be False, Wrong and/or Incorrect. I have informed 'you', enough times now, that EVERY time 'you' want to INSIST, and ARGUE, that ALL of Y/OUR VIEWS are grounded on ASSUMPTION, then this GUESS of YOURS could be COMPLETELY and UTTERLY False, Wrong, and/or Incorrect. Therefore, EVERY time you 'try to' INSIST the above 'you' are ALWAYS going to fall into this 'trap' of YOUR OWN MAKING.
Also, BE AWARE that until a view is BACKED UP and SUPPORTED, then it is essentially REMAINS only just an 'assumption', a 'guess', or just a 'theory', AND, by definition, YOUR ASSUMPTION and GUESS here MEANS that it will ALWAYS remain just an 'ASSUMPTION' and a 'GUESS', ONLY.
Therefore, 'you', "eodnhoj7", will ALWAYS REMAIN in YOUR OWN TRAP.
LOL 'you' have NOT EVEN got CORRECT what I have CLEARLY SAID, in WRITTEN, thus PROVEN WORDS.
I suggest using thee ACTUAL WORDS that I have USED, that is; IF you REALLY WANT to 'try to' use them to argue AGAINST 'me'.
ALSO, and by the way, ONCE AGAIN, I am NOT EVEN ASSUMING what 'you', AGAIN, CLAIM HERE.
Get back to 'me' when either 'you' use MY 'words' CORRECTLY, or when 'you' CLARIFY with 'me' FIRST.
