Do your beliefs imply a Necessary being exists?
#40
RE: Do your beliefs imply a Necessary being exists?
Rasmussen makes it quite clear what he means by Essential Being, whether by definition or logical gymnastics makes no difference.

I've played this survey, several times. I can make it come out each of the three ways merely by picking options at random. None of this maps onto anything tangible and I'm not interested in logic for logic's sake. I do enjoy logical problem solving for fun, however, the difference being I know for a fact I'm not expected to pretend they're referring to anything real.

And for the final time, I have no beliefs regarding gods and related detritus. Necessary Beings are a wasted concept on me.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
