Believe:

[Edwardo Piet]

Hey,
To EvF I can only explain that I just assume there must be god, because it is the only thing that personally makes sense.

And why is, what personally makes sense to you, a good reason? I mean: have you got any more substance to your reasoning simply than 'personally makes sense'? Lots of people's beliefs simply make 'personal sense' to them. That doesn't make them true - it doesn't add any remote evidence in and of itself. It needs to make sense BECAUSE of a good reason - just 'making sense' itself - isn't a good reason or evidence at all.

Why does it make sense to you? And if we are talking a bout the actual existence of something here (a God) - then it isn't just a personal thing. I mean you believe that the God you believe in (whatever it is) exists outside your own mind don't you? So it's not just a personal belief - you believe it exists OUTSIDE your head - in 'reality', right?

I suppose there could not be, but to me that makes no sense. I need there to be a why. Not 'why did fido have to die?' kind of why, but 'why does fido die?' way.

Why do you assume there needs to be a reason? Just because you want there to be?

Why is the system the way it is and not another? It just does not add up

Well, it had to be SOME way. And if it WAS a different way - in an alternative reality - you could still be asking exactly the same question. However the universe is, 'you' (whatever you'd be in that universe), could theoretically - be asking the same question: "Why THIS universe? Why THIS way?" - well, it's gotta be SOME way hasn't it? Because we're here asking that question - and if it WAS another way -we could still be asking it.

Why do you assume it has to be THIS way for a reason? It's not like it's been perfectly created. There are a lot of fucked up things in the world - and as far as we know, so far, out of all the known planets in the universe - ours is the only one with life on it - what a waste eh?

God is a little girl because it keeps me honest. You can't stay mad at or hate a little girl, so I think is much better (and more appropriate) that she be that.

It's much better? Well if it's much better, how does that remotely make it any more likely to be true? I mean, how can you be so specific?
