Your way of thinking is contingent perhaps though, although it seems logical to you. Spiritual pursuits search for higher necessary knowledge and is s...
Godel's theorems prove that, in the form in which we think now, mathematics is either inconsistent or has infinite propositions that can't be proven. ...
Through God they say we can know all truth through God himself as truth. So there won't be any abstract truth hidden but all understood under truth, b...
In Eastern Orthodox hesychasm they believe that the seat of the soul is in the belly button. They control the breath and the heart beat (as they pray ...
He can prove everything I imagine. He is logical perfectly atomized into simplicity, as theists might say. So 1) God's existence cannot be disproved, ...
My point is that God, if he exists, knows of and knows the proof of everything. In a divine way of course. If the mystics are right who say we will fu...
Because you don't understand his argument for God. First he says in the 3rd Meditation that he has an idea of a perfect being. Then he says the substa...
False. You don't know about theology Also, please explain the difference between the argument for God in the Third meditation and the one in the Fourt...
You misunderstood his third Meditation. He had two arguments for God. Your rationalism will fail you. God can do anything whatsoever and at the same t...
That is the argument in the 4th meditation. In the 3rd one who says the idea of God is so perfect that we can't have an idea of it without it existing...
I think he has a flawed argument. He get's into language games. Self-reference such as Russell's paradox is about how language can backfire. If we gav...
You believe God is contingent (contra Descartes) and perhaps don't understand God yet, so maybe your not at the place to discuss the Trinity. You thin...
Descartes himself said that God was necessary, eternal, and timeless. This is the highest being conceivable and Descartes thought it must exist a prio...
Been there, done that False. A teacher can sense where a student is going without going by the students exact words for example Every word And then yo...
Wittgenstein said life is lived as the flow and game of life. Language is the game of life. However, he said if lions could talk we couldn't understan...
Well I've read otherwise and I know he went to Paris to discuss his ideas in 1642 with the intellectual elite. He wrote his physics book next and then...
Divine love is nauseating? Maybe. But Deism leads to atheism while the Trinity as an idea can withstand doubts. If someone believes in God it is most ...
Descartes wrote his five meditations and Replies to Objections in 1641 and published them the next year. Ive read them many times in addition to 1) Ru...
I've read Descartes's full work from 1642. He had dissociative problems. And how do you know God did not divest herself of power this morning? Is it p...
Your idea that God can lessen his power stems from not understanding the Trinity. Your god doesn t seem to love anyone while my God love each other (s...
You believe you are nowhere but have a super-powerful (maybe today totally powerless) alien watching over you. Then mustn't you believe than that you ...
Because we are en-souled bodies, soul forming the matter into the form human eye can see. We are in a social system on earth, where we relate to other...
This is not an argument. God is perfectly simple, we are not. Why? Because we are bodies in the world. The soul and the body are the same thing. I've ...
The Trinity explains how God has an equal (two actually) to love. Otherwise a simple God would be a supreme king like Allah instead of pure activity l...
Souls exist in the world. This is what phenomenology proves. God doesn't have a location because he is MORE simple than a soul. He is on another realm...
Now you have a new argument. So far they are 1) One Gospel only talked about Jesus's divinity, so he couldn't be divine 2) Many religious sects claim ...
The Trinity makes sense because of God's utter simplicity. In humans the soul is always united to the body as its form. Immediately after death you fi...
I was arguing actually that you can't prove the story is consistent. You are saying that because three Gospels don't mention Jesus's divinity the reli...
What meds are you on or should be on? I try to talk ideas, it is you throwing arrogant shit everywhere. To me your theology sounds very hippie and no ...
Setting aside all that rubbish, I'll point out to you that humans have soul (life), reason as its power, and will is element mixed into reason so it c...
Your idea of God is anthromorphic still because human souls have parts while God's does not. Even calling God "she" doesn't mean God is not *perfectly...
That is their opinion and it's self-consistent. I am not saying it's true. I am saying you can't disprove Christianity from logic. Have many times hav...
You don't think with faith or pre-faith. Christians nowadays believed the apostles believed like they did and they and Paul converted thousands of peo...
Yes I have. Christians believe that early believers already knew Jesus was God. If a priest is to give 4 sermons to his followers, why is it odd that ...
Rationalists critique things that in reality they don't understand. I don't like how Christians try to prove their faith is true but they have every r...
They aren't stupid. They see things you don't. That's how life works. But your argument was that "you would uh think that all the Gospels would speak ...
Of course I didn't say that. Just because you believe only in reason, that doesn't make you reasonable. People who believe in things higher than reaso...
