God's Value Nonexistent?
#4
RE: God's Value Nonexistent?
I've always wondered this too. Theists always say god has objective value, but they never give any reason for it. Just like they never explain why god can come fully formed from nothing when the universe can't come unformed from nothing. Then there is the 'he is eternal' argument that somehow says 'nothing can be eternal, therefore god is the only eternal thing'. First of all, we don't know if the first premise is even true, and second, this is pure speculation. Just think about it; if no one had proposed god before, theorizing about a god would be raw and ultimately fruitless speculation, especially considering that it is one of the less plausible theories about...well, anything he's been invoked to explain.
