Why Your God?
#20
RE: Why Your God?
Quote:1. That's not provable AGREED (at present ...)
2. God is very accurately defined Which of the many hundreds of definitions for god that I (alone have heard are you referring to about (please post it)?

2b. Is therefore bollocks No comment as I didn't understand what Giff said
3. Christians have a very accurate idea of what God is, and can rationally justify why they might take the step of faith to belief rather than acceptance. You may not understand it, but then to you rationally you see most justification for not believing, also a philosophical opinion. See 2

In will try to explain what I meant.

1. What I meant was: Just because someone make something up just out of the blue without anything to support it doesn't say that such thing is possible. Is like saying Matrix is real or that Shwazingwa is true because it just is.

2b. That it's hard to understand is nothing that suprised me, since I personally don't know what they really mean with what they are saying. But as I priest here in Sweden told me when he explianed about God and religion is following:

God= Life. Is not an object and is undefinble. Is also something that we all have to be humble about and have to accept that there are a mystery that we will never understand. Confusing but that pretty much is what he said.

Religion= Everything and everyone. He said everyone is religious. Also that we shouldn't live by defintions. That's why he say everyone is religious as long as they have some sort of philosophy about life. Very strange I know.

But that that what he explained.

So the answers on 2 and 3 is that a lot of christians have a certain definition of their god.
