Consciousness is a cognitive action that would include conceptualization, imagination and self-awareness within them, it would be a little silly to presume you can conceptualize something without consciousness, or perhaps you can, but you would have no concept of what you was doing, therefore it...
Simplest answer.....you can be secularist and religious (I.E. Christian) it just means you want politics to rule your reality and god to rule your conscious understanding of the world...
in my opinion, which doesnt seem to count for much, the government in some sense is a religion, the government seems the only large scale organisation that manipulates reality(mathematics and science) to adhere to our consciousnesses needs (spirituality) such as creating a comfortable living for...
If you believe in the specific god you mock, you may also incur your own wrath (mostly extremist behaviour) such as whipping your back and all that stuff when you commit sin and of such
if you see yourself as god then it may be liberating to mock yourself, that is too say you have a good...
i wasnt ever for sale, no religion would ever be able to answer my question, i already knew the outcome, a good debate on important subjects that link me to spirituality and possibly religion, Orias was right, i am here to gain knowledge on different religions and beliefs relative to imagination...
"Secularism is the concept that government or other entities should exist separately from religion and/or religious beliefs" - Wiki
Nah i dont but i think politics is actually idealism's aswell which makes them religions in there own right's, infact they have alot more impact on most of our...
ok, firstly i presume to much to say that we would presume ourselves god without imagination, this point is irrelivant, weather we think were god or not is irrelivant to my orignal statement regarding the real fact that god is a pigment of our imagination and this is because it is the best thing...

"The matrix is the universe.
Which may or may not be infinite, but nature is however. The very representation of my philosophical belief."
i believe the opposite, i believe the universe may be some form of the matrix, but that makes the matrix infinite and not nature, nature could...
yes your right, it was that sort of question and your right just because we cant imagine something better than us doesnt mean it doesnt exist, however, there wouldnt be billions of people running around saying there god is the only god etc etc because if they couldnt imagine anything, im fairly...
@Eliot Wild lol at where gods bum hole may be situated
@zenzero i can relate to what your saying to some extents, that everything only exists because your mind renders the existence of it, i.e. that plant may exist in the physical world, but im say colour blind, my mind might not render the...
"The real answer to your question rests on how one defines God. The Abrihamic religions would claim that yes God would exist independent of the imagination. But it all depends on your concept of God." - how would you know this, if the specific subject of the abrahamic faith had no imagination...
infinity in any mathematical term is a number that increments or decrements infinitely that is; to never stop, how is it we can put numbers to angles and lines and all of a sudden the world looks like the matrix? ask your imagination ;)
mathamatics is solely something that can be figured out by numbers alone, no language, no emotions, theres also a very important branch of mathematics which is more relevant when talking about god and that ovcourse is logic, logic being the difference between true and false, existing and not...
