Do you wish there was a God?
It doesn't have to be the God of Abraham. But just A God. Some supernatural supreme being out there who created us and loves us.... Do you wish that was real or do you prefer the idea of nothing like that existing?
Please explain why or why not.
There's no middle ground that satisfies me in in relation to explanation for a god.
I can't wish the god of the bible exists because that's just undeniable straight forward dopey talk. It's so primitive.
There's this being who was up there forever who can do everything then he all of a sudden decides to say let their be light, why does he say let their be light why didn't he just think it? Why are there angels? Why is god sending angels to find out things and do things for him when he can do anything anyway? The list, of what in my opinion is dopey shit, that is in the bible is endless. The bible pretty much depicts god as an angry dad who can turn a bit psychotic sometimes, you might aswell ask do I wish homer simpson created the universe.
On the other hand a complex/vague definition of god is just too overcomplicated for my brain to worry about. it's in the same area as time, space, nothingness, infinity.
Just stuff that if I focus on too much it's likely to drive me insane and make me end up living as a toothless hermit in a cave somewhere with diagrams drawn on the wall using my own bodily fluids.
I can't wish for a dopey character in a primitive book to have created the universe because....it's just dopey.
I can't wish for something I have no hope of understanding existing either because I just don't understand it.
I don't prefer the idea of nothing, the concept of this god is equal to the concept of nothing to me.
I've never seen nothing, I don't know what it is, I can't imagine it, the same applies with a god.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
