One God, many pictures.
And each and every one of them are useless due to the fact that
deities are figments of imagination.
What else is just a figment of imagination
in your scheme of things?
Afterlife.
How about the honor of your country?
Does that mean deities are real? Make your point.
Do you just act as if you care
for the honor of your country,
or you actually believe in it?
Going nowhere with this. Try harder.
You believe in many things
without even realizing that you do so.
Do you believe in the unconscious?
Connect to deities.
|
If you can believe in the unconscious,
you probably can believe in God.
What does it mean for you
to believe in the unconscious?

Pssstt......He has no point. He just keeps asking questions of the
type "Do you consider this incorporeal thing to be 'real'?"
I have given him direct answers, and I have asked him direct quetions.
All
to no avail. He has no answers and no cogent points.
You can see him flailing about trying to grasp anything that he can use
to
justify his silly little superstition.
Believe it or not,
to believe in God is not to believe that
you already know of everything that can be real.
Nonsense.

Do you really think you know
whether God is real or not?

How does he feel about UFOs? There is more evidence for UFOs than there
is for God.
Monkfish: Can you believe in UFOs?

The book you thump makes astronomical claims. Do you want to defend them? |

You don't even know much
about what is real in your mind.
What makes you think you know
all about what is real outside your mind?
