There are basic thermodynamic laws, which are independent of the mechanics of the universe, that rule this out.
>>72215640
copypasta now
By definition, God is a being than which none greater can be imagined.
A being that necessarily exists in reality is greater than a being that does not necessarily exist.
Thus, by definition, if God exists as an idea in the mind but does not necessarily exist in reality, then we can imagine something that is greater than God.
But we cannot imagine something that is greater than God.
Thus, if God exists in the mind as an idea, then God necessarily exists in reality.
God exists in the mind as an idea.
Therefore, God necessarily exists in reality

>>72214844
Nobody says that, though. The universe coming from nothing is a theory from the early 20th century
>>72214649
god, or "creator" can be said to be the unknown force/energy from what everything we know came to be in this version of the reality.
Theistic or atheistic view, there had to be something else existing in another plane of existence, where the energy has originated from. That being said, it isn't impossible that our own universe wouldn't have taken part in creating the other plane, that was needed in the creation of our own - just because time isn't linear and not everything follows rules of high school textbook physics.
In the end, both views do share the exact same dilemmas of creation / beginning of time. If you call it big bang or god or whatever, it doesn't make any difference and arguing over it is just silly.
tl;dr: Life is meaningless, we all are going to die without making any impact on anything. Death in inevitable.

2) There are 3000+ gods worshiped on this earth, all claiming that theirs and theirs only is the truth, while having no evidence what-so-ever. If there was an evidence, the religion with evidence would take over.

God does not exist in a sense most people comprehend this word.
There can be ontological god, but if there is it is a force of nature, demiurge, impersonal, unthinking, emotionless. But calling such a thing a god is false. You could as well call it a Force. Or whatever, cause it has nothing to do with any god.
Also, OP asked for "god" in general and then for your god.
So, there is a slim (like 0,00000000000000000000000001) chance that there might be a primordial force that there can be nothing greater, but calling this force a god is misleading.
Also, YOUR god doesn't exist at all and your religion and gods of all religions are lies and deception and nothing else.

Except that doesn't even factor in the possibility of other "universes" so they ruled it out as a possibility for ours as soon as they saw there wasn't enough matter to counteract the force of the universe expanding and actually bring everything together again.
But why couldn't there be other "universes", collections of matter originating from other big bangs, that could throw some matter our way, or ours to another

Why would we need such a God? The geometry of our universe potentially allows for creation of something from nothing
Why would a sentient God create a universe and spend billions of years waiting for life to form.
If time is irrelevant to a God, and the billions years were nothing to it, then why have them at all.
I guess that's what Last Thursdayism is broadly about.

It all depends on how you quantify God. I tend to believe that God and nature are one in the same and we all know that nature exists in many forms therefore God exists.

This is shooped put the dick back in.
>>72221025
Here you go.
My God exists because I have had spiritual experiences in which I feel I have been in touch with him/her.
I think all Gods are the same one being, but have just been lost in translation; just like there are many different languages for the same one purpose of verbal communication.
If you don't want to believe in God then that's your choice; all I'll say is it's an empty existence to completely shun the powers of spirituality.
I feel it's more blind to believe that they're aren't many things about the universe that are, and always will be, way beyond our realm of understanding, and for very good reason.
Atheism has become a religion in itself.
>>72220175
That's how sad and pathetic this entire argument is.
Religious retards such as yourself make stupid wild claims that are so absurd that they are literally IMPOSSIBLE to test or verify.
Your stance is a stupid one at best. Your only solace lies in the fact that no one can prove your absurdity wrong therefore you can continue the "faith" forever.
Imagine if I told you I believed in flying unicorns. You can't PROVE that flying unicorns don't exist can you? That's how stupid your argument is to people on the outside of your bullshit.
Correct, nobody can ever prove that your silly god exists but we can tell you how stupid you are for believing in dumb bullshit folklore. By the way. Atheism isn't some religion like you morons like to pretend. We shouldn't even use a word. Atheism is only A word that describes the state of not believing in theism. I don't believe believe In unicorns but I wouldn't call myself an A-unicornist.
People whodont believe in something just don't believe in it. If god comes forward tomorrow and let's it be known then guess what? Every atheist on earth will instantly become a believer because that's what the evidence would implicate. What about you? What evidence could there ever be that could get you to admit you were wrong? Nothing right? Yet another example of how pathetic your arrogant stance is.

Tldr: physical stimuli and the sensation of the stimuli are two qualitatively different things. Hence consciousness is something qualitatively different, emerging out of a sufficiently complex information network. Maybe some underlying feature of universe obeying to specific laws. Also, matter and energy can be actually reduced to information, and consciousness would be ontologically necessary to read information.

Why do athiests seem to think god is a literal human being floating around in space
ever though to think about "mother nature" or "nature" in general? maybe god is a metephorical word for the meaning of life and sceinces.
as in "it was nature that created the universe" replace nature with god. god the power that created the univers, not literally a man floating in space with his bare hands made the universe.
i'm an agnostic btw and its interesting to note most scientists atheists like to quote were very much religious.

Logic doesn't 'dictate' shit, it's a man-made concept. Reality is indifferent to what we think.
>>72221290
Arent you science fags the one always saying you have to prove your own points
Why dont you try and explain it
After you explain how nothing in your brain is the result of an outside source despite that going against science logic and religon all at once
>>72220894
So is nature sentient?
>>72221556
Let's slow this down since you are a complete idiot.
>christian makes an outrageous claim
>atheist ask christian to provide proof for said claim
>christian deflects the question while circling the wagon.
You see faggot. The atheist didn't start this. The atheist never claimed anything. The christian is the one who makes the extraordinary claim therefore the burden of proof lies on the christian to prove.

It's just an experiment showing how brain reacts to stimuli and what happens to your consciousness when a specific neuronal firing sequence is triggered.
It has nothing to do with God or Jesus or Spongebob. It doesn't prove nor disproves anything
>>72221862
Give us an example of said "ridiculous claims"?
>>72214649
Im gonna bite and actually offer some arguments for why God exists.
1. The modal ontological argument. To make it as oversimplified as possible, here it is: Is it possible (as in not logically incoherent) to imagine a being of maximum greatness? Yes. There are three levels of existence, impossible (square circle), possible (a unicorn, it could exist, but does not necessarily exist), and necessary (it cannot not exist, such as the number 2 or the law of non-contradiction). The greatest of these forms of existence is necessary, therefore a maximally great being would have necessary existence. Therefore, it must exist. You can no more imagine a world that does not have the number "2" or breaks the law of contradiction, than you can imagine one without God.
That is not to say that you cannot incorrectly assume you have imagined a world without them, you most certainly can. But then you are only fooling yourself.
This is argument 1, and the weakest.
>>72214649
Who said you that i can scientifically prove it?
>>72216957
OP was talking about "god(s)" not demons
Also, I'm not religious
>>72221933
They know what happened at the beginning of the universe
>>72222080
which is? and do atheists also "know" what happened in the beginning?
>>72221862
Christians do make outrageous claims, but fedora cucks trying to shove a reductionist approach everywhere aren't much better in that department.
>>72221933
>god exist
>the bible is a factual documentation
We can get into the thousands of ridiculous claims and stories within the bible that defy the lays of nature and physics but I'm sure you get the point
>>72221862
>The atheist didnt start this
Actually yeah one of you started this thread and most other threads like it
>The atheist never claimed anything
You idiots have been claiming shit this whole thread even things that go against science and logic as well as religon just to spite christians
How dense are you?
>>72214844
Ergo magic
>>72221961
Ontological argument being weak is to underestimate it, it's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy tier.
>Then, one day, a student who had been left to sweep up after a particularly unsuccessful party found himself reasoning in this way: If, he thought to himself, such a machine is a virtual impossibility, it must have finite improbability. So all I have to do in order to make one is to work out how exactly improbable it is, feed that figure into the finite improbability generator, give it a fresh cup of really hot tea... and turn it on!
>>72222080
Atheists claim this as well
>>72222172
>god exists
>implying god is a predetermined entity
>we could go into more claims
so give us some more?
>>72222156
That God created the universe. And no.
>>72222284
What would that claim be?
>>72222291
and what is god?
>>72222329
If you don't have a point I'm just going to stop responding to you
>>72221933
>>72222080
That the universe was created ex nihilo, which is what science is suggesting now
so "outrageous," I know.
>>72221681
>maybe god is a metephorical word
so, basically, god doesn't exist
>>72222313
Depends on the atheist the most common of the claims is the "big bang theory"
>>72214649
Don't take the bait Christians. Please don't From a former fedora tipper to you guys, please, just don't.
>>72214649
who's that spunk punk?
>>72222419
in the same sense that nature, physics and the laws of life don't exist.
>>72214649
you really belive that all what we have around was created from "nothing" ?
great architect/builder made this world, its obvious
There a lot of philosophical arguments that at least point towards the existence of God.I'm just going to argue why if God is real, then it's most likely the Christian one.
1) All serious historians, even religious or irreligious will tell you that Jesus was a historical person
2) Almost all religions after jesus' death mention him as enlightened or a prophet.
3) Most historical books today are based on the accounts of 1 or 2 historical people. The new testament is based on accounts of more than 12 people.
Again, i'm not arguing for the existence of God but i'm arguing that it's most likely if God is real and it's a personal God then it's the Christian one.
>>72215064
No it's because it's literally in the book you worship. It says he was a man. You're following bronze age myths for fuck's sake.
>>72214649
Give one that it doesn't.
It's a pointless endeavor to try because there's nothing ruling it in and nothing ruling it out.
>>72215033
What about polytheism? That is the oldest religion. Why must any of them necessarily be true?
>>72215664
'mURR ica. Founders of the worlds leading secular democracy.... and spiritual heartland of Judeism and the christian right.
I am an agnostic theist, please give me one (1) argument as to why you think all theists believe in Yahweh.
>>72222505
The big bang theory makes no claims of the origins of the universe.
>>72222413
No one is claiming to know for certain that is the origin of the universe. Christians and Islam and Jews though claim to know for certain the beginning of the universe.
>>72222794
Polytheism isnt a religon
Nice try though
>>72214649
All these mentally handicapped theistcucks and autistic fedora tippers
God exists because I want him to exist. The other gods don't exist unless I want them to.
Life is so much easier when you accept this.
But /pol/ won't accept this. Because this belief can't keep bumping these threads to the front page every fucking day.
>>72222732
You can believe in a creator God without believing in the Bible.
>>72222285
Yeah, next throw out some phrases your learned in high school bible study about how we cannot comprehend gods existence. Just another way of deflect the simple task of PROOF to back your absurd claims.
And you want more ridiculousness?
Resurrection.
6000 year old planet. (There is a nice lineage timeline that that can be added up from the first man Adam and his decedents that leaves us with this stupid number)
Ghost
Gods destroying entire cities
God flooding entire planet
People living to 200
Virgin births
Shils created in ston age times that can hold two of every creature without having them kill each or sink and created by a single family.
Like I said. We can go on forever. Do you want me to embarrass you some more euroshit?
>>72214844
Actually we just believe the Big Bang is the earliest known event. It also created space.
>>72214649
>>72221961
Now for the second argument.
2. Argument from materialism. If you assume, as a skeptic, that only that which you can empirically evaluate exists, then you are a materialist. This is a fine assumption, but self defeating. Material things are finite, tangible, and forceably follow cause and effect.
For example, if I kick a ball, it will roll. If the supposition is that only the material world exists, then a person need only find 1 immaterial thing that exists to show that materialism is inherently wrong. Thankfully, this is trivially easy.
"I perceive thoughts", the corrected version of Descartes' argument is a perfect example. Here he has shown two things that exist outside the material realm, "I" and "thoughts".
What is "I"? Simply put, it is who I perceive myself to be. Am I my body, certainly not! We can imagine a brain in a jar to defeat this idea. Therefore, "I" is now either my brain, or something immaterial. Well, one can also imagine a super-computer on which one's synaptic relations have been uploaded, such as Arnim Zola from Marvel comics. Thus, once every trace of what was originally, and materially "I" has been removed, "I" can still exist.
Therefore, "I" must exist outside the material realm. If "I" is supernatural, then it is not difficult to imagine a greater, or greatest "I".
The same argument can be applied to thoughts to show how thoughts exist outside the material realm as well. It is logically sound. You may refuse to accept it, but it is a logically sound argument for belief in the supernatural.
>>72222846
Why doesn't every christian just do this? It's called being logically consistent
>>72222884
Just claims of things that happened billions of years before the earth even existed right?
>>72222905
FUCKING LOSERS THINKING ABOUT THE PHILOSOPHICAL IMPLICATIONS OF THE EXISTENCE OF GOD
FUCKING SIMPLETONS JUST DON'T GET IT.
>>72222928
"God" is literally a title for Yahweh, like Adonai or Allah.
>>72222928
Well yes. Hindus do just that.
>>72222963
>we
Speak for yourself.
well there's actual evidence for my deity and he crashes planes to let you know hes real
It's easier to choose to believe without any consequences no matter the odds than it is not to believe and if the off chance is true then suffer the consequences.
When I found god, I found peace within myself. And through that I have never been happier before my 8 years of marriage ;)
>>72222928
so you're a deist? You believe god created the universe then had nothing to do with us?
Have you applied this >>72222846
test?
>>72222959
and your solid hard evidence to disprove these claims is?
>>72221961
So, let me get this straight. I am a Deist so i'm not trying to refute this argument. But i don't know how to refute the reverse ontological. Care to elaborate?
>>72222996
So then you think it's fucking bullshit when they use the exact same laws to calculate how to launch a satellite into orbit? You are literally claiming that relativity is false, got ANY evidence to back that up?
>>72222846
1. Thor
2. Housed in a Tree, the Thunder Oak/World Tree/Yggdrassil, was chopped down by Saint Boniface
3. Christian God doesn't live in a tree
4. Yeah I see it
God must exist because he is necessary to explain human condition...

If no God..they are unexplainable. You are left with these explanations...
>chemical reaction

>Self delusion

>illusion of universal rules

Its clear that the world is senseless and meaningless without God
>>72222905
Well, I want flying midgets to be real, thereFore they are real too.

>Why think for yourself when you can be told how and what to think?

The world is senseless and meaningless anon.
Look around you - chaos.
>>72222959
And yet well shitting on us for having no proof *other than first hand accounts*
You have none of your own
Stay salty and enjoy the eternal lake of fire if your wrong
If im wrong ill never even know lol
>>72223007
Fine, you can believe in a creator DIETY without believing in the Bible. Is that better?
>>72223315
It is, I have a great disdain for Semites and I do not appreciate people perpetuating their cult and it's culture.
>>72214649
God exists because of ontological reasoning.
Hashem exists as the one true god because of consistency in teaching while historically being the only god who has made his presence known infront of thousands. The offshoots of this faith are farther from the truth as their translations and transfer of the sacred text have greatly altered the original work while the original text in Judaism historically has at most a different of three letters between all copies made with intent in the original language.
>>72223105
No one has ever lived to 200
The earth has never been flooded and no evidence for this great flood exist nor is Noah's arc even possible to begin with
Resurrection after death we know is not a thing
The earth is 5 billion years old and not 6000 years old. We have trees that are older then 6000.
Just stop euroshit.
Just stop already.
>>72223096
Yes. What makes you think I believe in a specific deity? Why does it need to be specific? Even if every religion on Earth is wrong doesn't mean a God doesn't exist.
>>72223211
>debunk all your own arguments in your own post
Nice
