Re: opinons on God argument: Eligance of God Hypothesis
Meta IF YOU BELIEVE IN EVOLUTION YOU MUST ACCEPT THE IDEA THAT A COMPLEX EFFECT NEED NOT ALWAYS HAVE A COMPLEX CAUSE! First an observation colours and capitals add nothing to your argument, however, I have never questioned that complex things can come from simple start points, however you propose a ...

Re: opinons on God argument: Eligance of God Hypothesis
Meta as I said before the principle of evolution assumes that a complex world like earth can begin from an single organism or from a ball of gas. The question atheist pundits imply that complex requires more complex is opposed their own world view. Complexity comes from his ability to create a unive...

Re: opinons on God argument: Eligance of God Hypothesis
Meta Please explain how god is simple is relation to his ability to create and maintain a whole universe? The assumption that god is complex comes from the fact that he is described that way in holy text, which you have to admit has to be the definitive source. Even if I accept there is a god, I see...

Re: opinons on God argument: Eligance of God Hypothesis
Sorry about the delay in responding, work has been crazy, i will respond to all the other posts as soon as i can As far as i can see there are a few problems with this elegance argument. God is simple Well no not really, a being capable of creating the universe could not be described as simple, part...

Re: God's hidden love?
I have tried to read Tillich, it is interesting and i don't pretend that i understood all or even most of what i got through, however i would like to point out that the Big Man in the Sky is how most religious people consider their god, particularly most of the ones that you run into being vocal on...

Re: God's hidden lov[quote="Metacrock"]Hey there LL glad you
Hey there LL glad you could make it. Yeah sorry about the hold up but major changes have been occuring in my life, mostly finding out that i am about to be a father again and my wife being ill. No, but it's false because it's not the case. Since I have a philosophy of love then it's empirical and d...

Re: God's hidden love?
Just got through having a dozen atheists on carm yet one more time as they have a hundred times before totally ignore the Tillich I quote and insist that any notion having love is big man in the sky. Not one single atheist there is willing to say "wait maybe there's another idea." I have tried to r...

Re: God's hidden love?
'that seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing they may hear and not understand, lest they may turn, and the sins may be forgiven them.' I only have a glimpse of this. The atheists have no idea what love is. One of the reasons they can't accept that God is personal is becuase they think lo...

Re: Free Will
What I think I had in the back of my mind with this example was the immutability of deterministic laws. The laws of nature - eg - aren't immutable, they're just generalizations derived from observations. So they could change at any time. (Well they could change conceptually too, but I mean in in re...
