Well other than that nothing. Creationism-belief is still only believed by those people without a reasonable mind or even a mind.

In other words, Jay we're calling you retarded.

Lolz

PS-PC... where the f*ck did you get that avvy?

I'm relatively new to this site, and just first saw this thread today. I'm not sure if DesCartes has ever been discussed on here, but he is/was a brilliant mathematician/philosopher and religious person. He wrote an essay on the existence of god which is rather ingenious. I am not a religious person, but religion and god are certainly not mutually exclusive.

Anyway, Rene' (yes, we're on a first name basis) deduced the existence of god by our ability to comprehend (or rather just that we have knowledge about) infinite things. He says that any finite being would not be able to acknowledge the possible existence of something finite UNLESS we had some infinite-type *impression* made on us at the beginning of our existence. Hence there must be some 'infinite creator' which impressed the possibility of the idea of infinity upon us.

I created the following analogy. Imagine that you (a person) are a small part of a circle. Without having some idea of what the whole *IS* you could never comprehend what an entire circle is just based upon the knowledge you have of the small piece you represent. Thus, the idea of the *whole* circle had to have been somehow ingrained in us for us to know what it looks like (I'm not using the circle as a direct example of this, just as a concrete analogue.)

Good post but many here might not have the capacity to think beyond a slinky concerning gravitational pull much less complex things as infinity.

Those who don't believe in God are still in the minority on this poll regardless of how loud they have been.

"Believe" is the key word here. There is no proof that god exist. It's a belief.

Religion is question of faith, not fact.

This is going to stir up a whole new can of worms but in another thread I saw Christians and atheists debate whether atheism was a non belief in the existence of God or was it a belief that there is no God.

I noticed in this article Penn Jillette said at least 3 times that "I believe there is no God". He also says that he is beyond atheism. I wonder if he thinks he is a more intelligent or better person than the average atheist because he says it that way.

That being said, holy f*ck he's a research fellow at the Cato Institute! I thought he just did magic routines.

Reminds me of what I often say when asked if I believe in God..... "No, I don't believe in God, I know there is a God and there is a difference."

And i know there's an elephant in the trunk of Penn's car.

Reminds me of why I told myself to stop reading this thread (which, for the most part, I have) - Retards 'knowing' there is a god --

There is no proof that God doesn't exist! However over thousands and thousand of years, The bible has survived, and Money, kings, Places, tombs, and other Remains are found, Which is more Proof that god does exist, rather than not.

Prove God doesn't exist? you can't! there is more proof of the existence than not.

Wha?? How does that prove god exists The bible survived because it made people powerfull. All that other stuff survives because thats what old stuff which doesn't corrode does. I dont see your point here.

There is no more proof of his existence than of his non existence, belief is based on faith non belief is based on material logic.

How the hell does that prove that God exists? It proves that some parts of the Bible has historical meaning, but other than that, WOW, GOD EXISTS BECAUSE MONEY WAS AROUND 2000 + YEARS AGO!

Seriously, Beastly, money doesn't prove that God exists. Kings of ages past does not prove that God exists. Places, tombs and other remains does not prove that God exists. It just proves that things were introduced into the Bible and put there as a historical meaning, nothing more, nothing less.

You know why that is? BECAUSE NOONE CAN COMPREHEND INFINITY!

Anyone who claims so is lying.

Descartes was a good philosopher, but he made many mistakes in his "proof" for god.

jay_a2j wrote:but many here might not have the capacity to think beyond a slinky concerning gravitational pull much less complex things as infinity.

The only thing you've talked about infinity is that God is ever lasting. Christ Jay you piss me off so much.

Proof that you should take perhaps a science class, or slap your mother in the face for making you go to church.

all you stated here is that people believe in god...

Jay, I'm still puzzling over how your logical argument results in the Abrahamic God... Any clarification on what indicates the type of creator?

Guiscard wrote:Jay, I'm still puzzling over how your logical argument results in the Abrahamic God... Any clarification on what indicates the type of creator?

The thread was not made to prove the Abrahamic God just that God must exist. Now deciding which God exists is a matter of faith. The Bible puts forth overwhelming evidence that it is true.

You think some stories is overwhelming evidence? That a burning bush speaking is evidence? That someone turning towards God by being blinded randomly? Having 7 years of good crops then 7 years of famine?

Overwhelming evidence I see.

Yes because parting an entire fucking sea actually happened...as did everything else Skittles! just said. Jay i've said this before and I'll say it again, you have down syndrome.
