Not exactlySo you have nothing but your illogical opinion. Got it.Because logic says so.Because you say so?There must be a first cause and that first cause must be mind.At school?Right. But where did the aliens get their intelligence from?Not from you, that's for sure.I see. Where did the aliens get their intelligence from?That was from alien intervention that humans got smart around 100,000 to 200,000 years ago. Before that we were an ape-like species for like, 5 million years.Actually it's more narcissistic to believe you are your own god. As for being created in the image of God, I read it to mean that man is different than all of God's other creatures because man is a being which knows and creates. It should be fairly obvious to all that we are different than the other animals in the animal kingdom.It makes sense that the men who wrote the bible wanted to say they were made in the image of a god. It's called narcissism.The Bible (which is my final source of authority) tells us that we were made in His image, therefore He's not without a form. That's certainly one area where you and I differ on this issue.Just because you perceive God to be some magical fairy tale and skew everything to that end doesn't mean I have to. It's no wonder there is no evidence you will accept for God's existence.
Your (fucked up) perception of God is not my perception of God. My perception of God is consciousness without form. That Mind, rather than emerging as a late outgrowth in the evolution of life, has existed always as the matrix, the source and condition of physical reality. Such that Mind has composed a physical universe that breeds life, and so eventually evolves creatures that know and create. It's not a coincidence that the universe popped into existence hardwired to produce intelligence.
No goal post moving here. This has always been my assertion, dummy.![]()
This video is banned from our discussions, it shows nothing but some guy's OPINION. Got anything else? And quote the relevant part. It's a fail when you post a video or some other general link to nothing specific.
I'm sorry the universe popping into existence hardwired to produce intelligence freaks you out. But there it is.
