I'm not followingg you ... In QM by "observer" I understand measurement apparatus (re: interaction of different systems).and not "consciousness"..

It's your caricature of 'atheists whom you are unable to counter with sound arguments'.

Well I guess so, seeing as you cannot, with any intellectual integrity, answer this

'Eyewitness testimony' is notoriously unreliable – uncorroborated it's only an opinion. Anyway, the context here is epistemological and neither forens...

Some might say 'there is compelling evidence – nature itself – that there is no (Biblical) god. :chin: (NB: I did for decades but have 'outgrown' mere...

You don't discern, or accept, there is a significant difference between evidence (i.e. fact) and anecdote (i.e. opinion)? The latter is subjective and...

Why do you assume that "Hell" isn't mostly filled with those who do not "lack religious faith or observance"? Anyway, if there was a "loving God" "He"...

So do I, members of my family included; and yet ... :fire: Where did I say or imply that a circle cannot be squared? No, son, that's just trolling, no...

Because it's tantamount to asking whether a circle can be squared. The answer to 'whether or not "God" can "divest" itself of its "omnipotence"' amoun...

You claim "there is evidence of God" and then call my request for you to present it "anti-religious bigotry". Typical apologetics. Evidence-free claim...

I did consider it when I studied S?t? Zen for over a year as an undergrad but found 'meditative practice' was not for me. Except for "meditating", I'v...

I only "smash" dogmatic, irrational, fideistic apologists – so no, in good Socratic Pyrrhonian Spinozist Humean Nietzschean or Zapffean fashion I will...

Nonetheless, I'm more willing to submit my statements and arguments to rational, evidence-based cross-examination than you 'woo-of-the-gaps bible-thum...

Big whup. "Omnipotence" does not entail 'doing what's logically impossible to do'; that's an ad hoc, arbitrary assumption – magical fiat. :sparkle:

Every theistic conception of "God" I'm familiar with, TC, is "a contradiction" personified, which is why "God" can only be "worshipped" and/or misunde...

I prefer rational speculation (i.e. philosophy) to mere magical thinking (e.g. "common definition of omnipotence"). . Why are there so damn many repea...

It's anti-"because I say so" bigotry, sir. :shade:

So you don't know, lil D-Ker. :ok:

Maybe. How do you know this to be the case?

Not a clue what you're talking about ... :yawn:

:lol:

I guess you D-Kers gotta stick together. :sweat:

Here's an old post addressing this question. Another sketch of understanding excerpted from a different old post.

An ad hominem via projection of him who hears his name without it even being mentioned. You tell on yourself, EW. :smirk:

I can't consider something "good evidence" (or not good) when there isn't any evidence given (by you et al) to consider. Trying answering the actual q...

Since the OP cannot answer this , I'll have to fend for myself just for the sake of this discussion (with myself): I just can't shake the oxymoronic s...

Well, your "untrained dilettante" ad hominems, sir, miss their mark by a wide country mile with projections of your own philosophical defects. :sweat:

Nonsense. This preferred "interest" may be only true – symptomatic – of idealists, platonists or cartesians. You need to study (more) modern philosoph...

What does that have to do with anything I've written here? I've neither mentioned nor implied anything about "evolution" or "novelty".

No. "The fact that it can't be described" only implies that it hasn't been described yet (either by you or maybe anyone). For instance, the ocean floo...

:ok:

How do you know it's "an exact structure" if it "can't be described exactly"? You're just begging the question (i.e. it's so because I say so" à la Hu...
