thank you for this Smile

i'm sorry you can't understand a simple concept an 8 year old can understand.

Maybe read what I posted?

Only 8 year olds have invisible friends, if you are 50 and still have an invisible friend I don't think you have any basis to lecture others about reality. I grew up, I don't think you have.

Allah is invisible too. No one has ever seen Thor or Apollo either. Silly you thinks your god claim is the first in human history and that everyone has a duty to fold and not call it silly. Your god claim is silly. It is 2014 and there has never been any evidence for ANY god ever. Nor is a ANY god claim needed to explain anything.

Oh and FYI, quoting a holy book to prove a holy book is called circular reasoning. It doesn't work when Muslims or Jews do it either.

God is a human concocted concept reflecting the TOTALITY OF ALL EXISTENCE...

A word to mean ALL THAT EXISTS AND WHATEVER MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE CREATED THAT. (see 1st post)

So we can EXPRESS it to EACH OTHER.

I am not quoting the Book to prove the book I am saying the Book PROVES the DEFINITION of the WORD used IN IT.

How can you know the meaning of a word without CONTEXT?

The Bible could be TOTALLY FALSE yet the DEFINTIONS of the WORDS used to describe that falseness would have to be VALID!

i can write a book about a snarg that flerns to casia to cobblate some pikipones and if i CHOOSE as the AUTHOR any of those words to MEAN GOD. Then they that word would STILL MEAN GOD even though my story is entirely made up. ANALOGIES... METAPHORS....
describing an OBVIOUSLY REAL THING.

use your heads guys.

keep trying one day you will get It Smile

The bible describes god as an immortal human living in heaven above earth. And that since he is immortal he has supernatural creative powers. That is how the text of the bible describes him. You are trying to put your own ideas about god onto the bible to make it more palatable.

Or, to put it another way,

OMG
ROFLOL ROFLOL
iTS SO SUMPLEZ YOU GUYS!!! TEH BIBLEZ SEZ gOD IS A PERSON!!!!!!

It so clear!!!!!!

IF YOUZ WAS ONLY SMRT ENUFF TO SEE PAST YOUR DELUSHION!!!

Well, there's your problem. No way to differentiate between what is or isn't god, so you're trapped by your belief.

If Losty shows up at my doorstep topless, I'd shout "GOD IS THE TITS!" And then we'll spend the rest of the afternoon doing things that would make Satan blush.

You, meanwhile, are busy genuflecting to a birdbath, because it is god. When the men in white coats escort you to an ambulance, you follow quietly because they are god. When they bring the straitjacket, you willingly put your arms through it because it is god. When they show you your padded cell, you enter cheerfully because it is god. When the orderly with the crazy eyes and the holy cross earring enters the room, you welcome him because he is god. When he fondles your balls for the next half-hour, you consider it a sort of prayer meeting.

So for you, god is a deranged orderly squeezing your testicles. For me, god is a pair of soft, warm breasts with nipples that perk up if you blow on them gently. You might want to revise your beliefs. You're missing out on some great tits.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

It's not that we don't 'understand' - We understand (sort of) what you're typing.

It's just that they sound like the thoughts of an 8 year old.

See, when I was around 8 in fact, I started to realise that the god hypothesis being presented to me was un-evidenced bullshit. A particularly fundie Xtian teacher used to talk to us about Jésus and this god thing, and I realised that they used to give a lot rhetoric, but very little (no) evidence.

It's the same with your posts. You retort with things like "well just look around you! Everything is evidence of god!", when in reality Occam's Razor demolishes that argument right off the bat.

Then you'll retort with further things like "the bible proves a god", which is circular reasoning because all the bible in fact does is claim that there's a god; it doesn't evidence it. Homer's Odyssey isn't evidence of Odysseus' adventures is it? Or indeed Odysseus himself. Why should the bible be treated any different?

Indeed, we know who wrote the Odysssey, we know who wrote the Iliad. We have no idea who wrote or indeed edited large swathes of the biblical text.

Regardless, I'm growing tired of you. Up your game. I don't what you're trying to achieve with the whole "write posts like someone who's never typed on a keyboard before", but it's pissing me off. And bad things happen to those who piss me off.

you make me laugh too hahahah

YOU may INTERPRET the Bible to mean 'an immortal human living in heaven'
But where you missed when you read it is that it says he is LIKE a KING. So people of that day and age could COMPREHEND.

LIKE
an ANALOGY.

That means something more to those that CAN understand it.
This is ESOTERIC LANGUAGE.

Read it AGAIN or post what you think says that and i can clearly show you the error in your logic backed up by literally hundreds of religious texts in the Bible and from around the world in cultures of ALL types.

YOU ARE CLOSE!!!! just switch the HIGHLY IMPLAUSIBLE human on a throne for the OMG he is LIKE a King on a Throne

and as CLEARLY posted in my FIRST POST there are several quotes from the bible to get you started on your new discovery.

Noone said anything about normal.

And yes, I've read through the diatribe. It just gives the impression of another theist believing to have found the sorcerer's stone to make his claims more plausible. So you came up with some bible verses, big deal. They're as obscure and open to interpreation as they always are. Yet suddenly you're convinced it would leave an impression here of all places. Why is your concept supposed to be any better than the ones presented to us on a daily basis?

Have you actually tried your thesis on a christian board to see how well it sits there?

God wrestles with Jacob. God has a physical human body.

God in the garden of Eden clearly states that all that distinguishes him from Adam and Eve is his immortality.

God destroys the Tower of Babel because it is close to reaching his home in heaven.

God possesses Human traits such as jealousy and anger.

God lies.

God is not omnipotent or omniscient.

oh please it is pretty easy to differentiate between what is and isn't God....
if it EXISTS then it is PART OF GOD.
if it does NOT exist then it does not exist! lol

How can this possibly be hard for you guys to get? lol

And I never miss out on tits hahaha Smile

they LOVE me in piles Smile

I am a good, intelligent, and kind man that is very generous with his wealth.

God rewards ALL muahahahahaha Smile
