Comparing god to a Narcissist.

[Huggy Bear]

But I'm not a god and I don't claim to be one. And if I was, I sure wouldn't be narcissistic about it. I doubt you even know what narcissism really is. Anyone can read about it but actually dealing with a person who has it and is malicious about it, is an entirely different thing.

I started this thread based upon who and what I have dealt with in my personal life. I feel I'm spot on with my assessment and the similarities between the two. The comparisons made are as accurate as I see them. You can argue away all you like. You will never convince me that your god and a narcissist are different from one another.

You might as well give up right now.

So you define God based on who and what you've had to deal with in your personal life? So the universe revolves around Judi? pretty narcissistic, no?

Make no mistake, i have no interest of trying to convince you of anything...

Get off the free will crap. No... the only way the problem lies with man is man's mistake in believing a magical creature placed us all here in the first place.

If god really did put us all here, then he's got the means and the ability to make sure no one starves, gets sick or suffers in any other way possible

Revelation 21
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

He'd have the means and the ability to speak to each of us

God at one time DID speak to people, he gathered the Hebrews to mount Sinai and spoke audibly to them, but it terrified them so bad that from then on he only spoke to the people through a prophet. So if anyone claims that God spoke audibly to them, know that they are lying.

Prove he actually was responsible for creating the universe.
Oh and using the bible doesn't count as a proper reference since it's a work of fiction.

I didn't bring God up sweetheart, you did. This whole conversation is predicated on the fact that God exists. YOU can't start a discussion about God, and then claim he doesn't exist. I already get that you dont believe in God, were simply discussing a scenario (hypothetical in your case) where he does exist.
You starting the discussion about God,then announcing you don't believe in God, is what YOU call a circular argument.

Yeah.. about that... can't strike me down if you don't exist. Duh.

See above paragraph...

Yeah so has every single point you've ever tried to make. I don't need years on this forum to know that. Your circular arguments are obvious.

Years? you haven't been here a week, and apparently you already know every single point I've tried to make.
You must be a real delight.

And yeah, I don't commit murder because I AM afraid of the death penalty. That and I obey the laws because Prison Orange isn't my color. I have a list of five people who I would happily off right now if I knew that I could get away with it. So your argument is invalid.

Hmmm, thought you didn't murder because you were a "moral" person... Hey, at least you're honest.

It's You're not your. Your implies ownership. You're means You Are. I am not a murder. Murder is an action word. I'm not an action word, last time I checked. And yes, to many people the penalty for murder WOULD most certainly factor in the decision. Especially one that is well thought out and executed (pardon the pun).

I'm aware of the difference between "your" and "you're" sweetheart, it's not the first time I've had a typo in my post and it won't be the last.

One - I don't serve any god. Period.
Two - I very well CAN mentally conceive how horrific it might be. I don't have to believe in hell to do this. When you read a work of fiction, as you are reading, you mentally conceive what the characters look like, what their surroundings look like, what they are doing looks like. Imagination is wonderful that way. Do not assume to know what my thoughts are.

First of all, I was speaking generally.
Secondly, can guarantee your imaginings of Hell are way off.

Wait... so now YOU are telling me HOW horrific hell actually is?
Didn't you JUST SAY not more than two sentences ago, in the same damn paragraph that I cannot mentally conceive how horrific hell is? So how is it that you can but I can't?
I guess you can tell me what hell is actually like because you speak from experience? Or did you just mentally conceive how horrific it is in order to come off as a smart guy?

Nope, I'm telling what hell is not, big difference.
I have no clue how big the universe is, but i'll tell you what it's not....small.

I'd like to see a show of hands from those here who think my OP is most certainly NOT nonsense.

Are we not on an Atheist forum? Am I not posting something worthy of discussion?

You start a discussion about God, and when someone engages with you, you announce you don't believe in God, making the OP nonsense...
