Do your beliefs imply a Necessary being exists?
RE: Do your beliefs imply a Necessary being exists?
Something necessary is necessary and therefore is necessary.

nb=necessary being

u=universe

ot=otiose being

pe=possibility of Earth's existence (possible Earth)

(+nb)=/=(+ot)

(-nb)=/=(+pe)

therefore

(+nb)(-ot)=(+pe)+(+u)

(-ot) would be the result if your beliefs did not imply that there is a necessary being (there would be no being, thusly the being would be otiose or unnecessary)

Thus you can have a universe without (+ot)

However

(-nb)(+/-ot)=(-pe)+(-u)

You cannot have (+pe)*(+u) without (+nb)

I love math.
You can't ignore the people who disagree and pretend it makes you right.
