I am a pixieist, what do you think of my proof that universe creating pixies exist?

I am a pixieist, what do you think of my proof that universe creating pixies exist?
1. Formulate the information of the concept of universe creating pixies, thus:
"Universe creating pixies in concept are first and foremost the creators and operators of the universe and man and everything with a beginning."

2. Look for instances of causation in reality outside of concepts in our mind.

3. We find countless examples of causation in reality outside of concepts in our mind.

4. From the countless instances of causation in reality, we infer to the existence of a first and ultimate cause.

5. We find that the first and ultimate cause of all instances of causation in reality corresponds to our information on the concept of universe creating pixies, namely, the creator and operator of the universe and man and everything with a beginning.

6. Conclusion: universe creating pixies exists in concept as first and foremost the creators and operators of the universe and man and everything with a beginning.

Ta Da!

This is fun.

What else can be logiced into existence?

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

LOL

Looks like you went to the Mariosep school of logical proofs.

Good try but here's the thing, universe creating pixies is not the same as God creating the universe.

Questions arising from the argument.
  • Are pixies all powerful like God?
  • Are pixies all knowing like God?
  • Are pixies All Good like God?
  • Are pixies all perfect like God?
  • Are there any miracles related to pixies and if so are they demonic?
  • Do anyone worship pixies?
  • Is there an so called holy revelation of the pixies and does those revelations correspond to absolute truth and morals?
  • Are those revelations historically accurate?
  • Does worshipping pixies make you Good or Bad morally?
  • Are there any fulfilled prophecies concerning pixies, like in the Bible?
  • Are pixies powerful enough like God to create the universe?

This argument is an example of an incomplete understanding of Christian theology, missing as it does a major philosophical and historical aspect of Christian thought: the idea that there are positive reasons suggesting the existence of God.

Points 1-4 and 7-10 and off the mark, as it is not established that the comparison is an apt one (eg, the 'fulfilled prophecies' of the Bible are highly problematic, both textually and factually).

Points 5 and 6, however, can be answered with a resounding 'yes'. Belief in pixies persists even now in some areas of Cornwall - they are known to miraculously perform house and farm chores, and in return require gifts and thoughtful consideration from humans (worship).

They don't have to be all powerful, all good, or all knowing.

In fact, they are more happy not being those things. They don't like the logically contradictory state they create.

They only have to be powerful enough to create the universe. And since we see that the universe does exist, that proves they were responsible.

They do have one really big advantage over the Christian god however. They actually exist. My proof was successful in proving they exist.

Hmmm I have to say that I am not yet convinced by your argument.

I suggest that you post it repeatedly for 72 pages while ignoring everything that anybody says to you.

That may convince me.

You are presupposing that God, a Christian god at that, exists.

He doesn't. Your argument is completely irrelevant to the OP.

Fucking Heretics! Everyone knows Universe Creating Pixies uncreated themselves afterwards, leaving no evidence of their existence.

BRILLIANT!! Based on that argument - and with your permission - I would like to create TCOTUCP (The Church Of The Universe Creating Pixies). We can spread the truth of our doctrine by having no doctrine.

We'll be turning converts away in droves.

Screw your pixies. I am the Goddess of Creation. I would never make pixies.

Prove me wrong.
