Everyone who is certain a deist God does not exist, please raise your hand. In the last thread in which I asked this, we got one, maybe we can do better here.

I go further than just a "deist" concept. There are new agers who think the universe itself is some sort of cognition, which would be nothing more than a si fi version of superstition.

I do assert that as it stands scientifically, knowing that the only place thoughts occur is in evolutionary processes, to postulate any "God" or "god" is absurd.

Thoughts are an emergent property of evolution, not a starting point. And there is far too much baggage that Ocham's Razor and the problem with infinite regress cause to make any god claim credible, either logically or scientifically.

So I do assert that when given the following choices.

1. Gods are real

vs

2. Humans make up gods

I don't think there is a debate at all. There are just humans who like the idea of having a super hero.

So no, god as the popular concepts postulated now are an absurdity. I do assert that a God or god cannot exist.
