Dear readers, please read first the quote below under the caption {For your orientation}, you will know what the thread is all about.
_________________________
It is quite ambitious but I can justify it because it is good for mankind, in re the access to knowledge of what is honest, what is intelligent, and what is productive.
Hear, dear mankind, think existence, and you don't need evidence, just look at yourselves.
Looking at yourself each one of us mankind, you know you exist and I exist and he, she, it exists.
There, that is the experience of existence, as opposed to non-existence or nothingness.
Do we know nothingness?
Yes and no, how and why?
Yes, we know nothingness indirectly by our knowledge of existence or the reality of sometihingness, and why and how?
Why know nothingness even indirectly: because then you will hold most precious the fact that you are in existence instead of in non-existence, or you are a part of nothing at all.
And how do you indirectly know nothingness?
This way, bang your nose against a concrete wall harder and harder and harder until you bleed and even sense that your skull is going to crack, and consciousness tells you that you will lose existence altogether, with death coming closer and closer,
That means you are nearing extinction of your self - the participation of nothingness.
Are you now, everyone here, loving existence, and even non-human entities they strive to stay in existence instead of in non-existence.
Next time you notice an ant on your dining table, and you extend your index finger to quench it of life, of existence, it will rush away fast, faster than proportionately man can run for dear life.
Next day I will lecture on the worth of insightful thinking on the implications of existence - that is for folks with honest intelligent productive thinking, for the opposite humans who are not into honest intelligent productive thinking, they can opt to participate in nothingness, by what Japanese call sepukka or hara kiri [just being funny, but you get the lesson, so don't go jumping out from a 10th floor window to the pavement below].
{For your orientation}
God in concept is the creator cause of man and the universe and everything with a beginning.
And here is the OP:
Marius Dejess said:
Title of thread: What I have found out about God.
I have found out that God in concept is the creator cause of man and the universe and everything with a beginning.
And how did I find that out?
By reasoning on truths, facts, logic, and the history of ideas.
What is the benefit to me from the concept of God as the creator cause of man and the universe and everything with a beginning?
It brings me to the certain knowledge that God exists, whereas before I had only the belief that God exists, but not the certain knowledge.
Still I can't get God to talk with me.
