WE cannot prove God empiracally BUT he can prove himsepf empiracally? or am I being an idiot again?No, we cannot prove God empirically because God isn't physical. God doesn't have to prove Himself to Himself; moreover, this is placing finite, human standards and knowledge on a supposed infinite, omniscient being. ![]() |

It's not that He "can't" it's that the concept is a paradox. It simply can't exist. If God has anything but knowledge (faith) then He isn't omniscient. ![]() |

Just saying that if he cannot have faith he cannot be omnipotent. I therefore call your god "a paradox. It simply can't exist." |

The paradox simply can't exist under the finite realm (when we apply God to our understandings); however, if you apply God to His own understanding (whether or not He exists), it has to be compared to the infinite, which can very much support a paradox.(08-01-2013 09:37 PM)DLJ Wrote: I stated that I did not wish to distract but it appears that have.

Sorry.You're asking another version of the God-Rock Paradox... only this time it's about omniscience and not omnipotence. I'm stumbling in. I get what you're saying. Do you believe god knows everything? There's a lot of schools of thought. Some believe god knows all -- everything.....others when it suits their purpose says that god can't know because he gave us free will. Which do you think it is? It did occur to me this might be better in the "ask a theist" section, however this thread was already here. But as if to knock me down, reality came around And without so much as a mere touch, cut me into little pieces |

After this, I think RIED needs to decide what he wants to do with the debate.(08-01-2013 09:46 PM)kingschosen Wrote: You're asking another version of the God-Rock Paradox... only this time it's about omniscience and not omnipotence. RIED, you either need to concede or keep going... this hasn't ended in a stalemate because you haven't brought an argument to the table yet. Anyway, MSBB, we do not have freewill. God knows all in its most infinite sense. ![]() |

Thank you for replying.
Anyway, thought RIED already gave up...sorry to butt in. But as if to knock me down, reality came around And without so much as a mere touch, cut me into little pieces |

He's not getting out of it that easy. If he cannot provide evidence for his claim nor make arguments against mine, then he needs to concede. ![]() |

(08-01-2013 10:39 PM)Momsurroundedbyboys Wrote: Thank you for replying. I agree. It looked like RIED did concede. I would like to ask you KC, not to debate-just asking. How would the world that we live in change if God did not exist? Of course I'm asking a hypothetical situation for you to describe. But what makes our world what it is since God is real in your opinion and what key things would change if he suddenly lost interest in this pale blue dot we call Earth? |
