No, He cannot know that I do something and opposite of it at the same time since I cannot do something and opposite of it at the same time.
January 15, 2018 at 22:45
So I just do opposite of what God told me. That is leads into a contradiction. Therefore God cannot have foreknowledge.
January 15, 2018 at 22:42
I ask God. Can God tells me what I am going to do in a situation?
January 15, 2018 at 22:37
No, I am not talking about doctrine of predestination. I asked if God can tell you what you are trying to do in a situation? He knows things so He of ...
January 15, 2018 at 22:30
And how God knows what you are trying to do? Yes, He is not bounded by time. Can God tell you what you are trying to do?

Is 1+1=1 if 1 in both side are same?
January 15, 2018 at 21:53
Attributes of anything of course don't change. If God is same before and after your praying then your praying couldn't affect Him. How He could then r...

Is God same before and after your praying?
January 15, 2018 at 21:41
What you are doing is merely redefining the concept of "1" so your theory applies. Two drops of rain of course could form one but the quantities of wa...

You are saying two glasses of water is equal to three glasses of water?
January 15, 2018 at 20:37
I am saying that something which is unimaginable cannot have any instance in reality. And yes, if you give two apples to God He only have two apples.

The laws of physics could be different but they should respect something. "One apple+one apple=two apples". I cannot even imagine "one apple+one apple...

How can God hear what you are praying if He is changeless?
January 15, 2018 at 17:06
There should be a minimal amount of self-interest, otherwise we wouldn't be here to live. That is another matter if you don't like life.
January 15, 2018 at 16:30
I am sorry. I have to correct myself. I wanted to write "Self-contradictory ideas cannot exist in reality". They are impossible in any world. Cognitiv...
January 15, 2018 at 16:10
There is no such a thing as Zeno's paradox. You can move along infinite instants if the duration between instants is good function of distance. Self-c...
January 15, 2018 at 16:06
To me such a person is impossible.
January 15, 2018 at 15:46
1+1=2 represent something in reality.
January 15, 2018 at 15:45
I cannot agree more.
January 15, 2018 at 15:34
What free will has to do with our current discussion?
January 15, 2018 at 15:32
I don't think such a world exist.
January 15, 2018 at 15:30
I agree. I agree.
January 15, 2018 at 15:22
I am arguing that 1+1=2 is symbolic equation which tells something we can assign to reality we observe, one apple plus one apple is equal two apples. ...
January 15, 2018 at 15:19
What you call mind or self is byproduct of brain activity. It is no wonder that we can only move our body because the movement of our body also is the...
January 15, 2018 at 10:52
Great. All I wanted to hear was that 1+1=3 is illogical. I will open a thread to know the opinion of others on this issue.
January 14, 2018 at 18:15
Interesting. But aren't the concept of changeless and changing contrary?
January 14, 2018 at 13:17
What God being inside and outside us has to do with relationship with God? There is a gap in line of your reasoning.
January 14, 2018 at 13:15
Yes, English is my second language and I am physicist. Where do you think I lack understanding?
January 14, 2018 at 13:10
Isn't 1+1=3 illogical?
January 13, 2018 at 20:23
It could mean anything. if 1+1=3 is possible then 1+God=whatever is also possible. You accept illogic is possible, 1+1=3?
January 13, 2018 at 20:17
I think I understand you and didn't understand me. 1+God could be whatever if we strive on illogic.
January 13, 2018 at 20:05
There cannot be any beginning if there is still a before.
January 13, 2018 at 20:03
You have the problem of before the beginning. It cannot be anything before the beginning.
January 13, 2018 at 19:59
One has to tell why the act of creation out of noting is logically possible and the process of noting to something is logically impossible. What if th...

What is the point of defining religious concepts when there is no logic behind it? 1+G=whatever.
January 13, 2018 at 19:39
I am talking about free will. I most of the time choose between right and left whether they have advantage for me. I can also do things which brings d...
January 12, 2018 at 13:19
Are you trying to define free will? I perhaps would not but I can.
January 12, 2018 at 13:14
So what is the domain of philosophy of religion? Could God make 1+1=3?
January 11, 2018 at 19:05
I agree with what you stated. The question however is whether we can do opposite of what God reveals?
January 11, 2018 at 12:34
Therefore you don't have free will.
January 11, 2018 at 12:12
What do you mean with above time? Doing consecutive tasks and acts require time.
January 11, 2018 at 12:10
I see. I have an argument which shows time cannot be created. You can find it here.
January 11, 2018 at 12:07
We are talking about philosophy of religion with God as one of its item using logic. Do you think that God can defy logic?
January 11, 2018 at 12:01
Some people call timeless state as eternal now. The present.

Could we learn about 3D image without sensing it? Everything becomes indifferent if there was no shape to experience.
