God... He or She?

[mikkel_the_dane]

Im sorry if the tone sounded a bit different to you..
I was just sharing my belief and wanted a rational discussion..
I didn't mean to say that you shouldn't share yours, that would be pure radicalism,
Sorry didn't mean to sound rude

Well, I will try to be nice.
The problem is that if you don't consider yourself special for how you understand, you can learn that in some cases we just understand differently.
And while proof can work, it doesn't work on religion and morality.

I understand that people have different opinions.
I wanted to understand your belief in a better way
I wasn't trying to enforce my belief on you.. That is your choice not mine

Have you ever read Isaac Asimov’s “The Gods Themselves”?

Gods come in three genders, Rationals, Emotionals, and Hard Ones, if I recall correctly.

I was a kid then, so maybe I got it all wrong.

Yes God or Gods come in many varieties from the fallible human ancient cultural perspective. That is problem and the argument afainst any on religion.

The many different conflicting claims of God or Gods further complicates the problem of any one fallible human ancient effort to defne Gods, and seriously brings to question the validity of any one ancient religion beyond their beliefs in the cultural context of the rime.

So, the purpose of war is war?

Isn’t that a little simplistic?

It is best to simplify with basic English definitions and actual Holy Wars in history

If the purpose of math is defined by math, then why do you believe that mathematicians don’t understand the purpose of math?

Mathematicians very well understand the purpose of Math as defined, The problem is your contorted view of the simple English language to justify your agenda

What is your opinion on our creation..
Are you theist or atheist?

 

[shunyadragon]

And there's this....

The Christian ancient tribal mythology most definitely blame Eve.

 

[shunyadragon]

God does not have a gender.

The Pentateuch God id most definitely described as a man.

What is your opinion on our creation..

I am a Theistic Evolutionist and believe in the harmony of religion and science.

The evolving knowledge of science is the overwhelming factual understanding of the billions of years of the evolution of life and the natural history of out physical existence. God Created Naturally,

Ancient mythical views of anthropomorphic Gods have nothing to offer today.

Okay, my belief is that I live in an everyday world and I don't know if it is natrual or supernatural.
Rather I am a limited cogntive, moral and cultural relativist.

Interesting.. according to your studies, which religion do you consider most reliable?
I agree that God created our physical reality in harmony with nature.

So your point is:
I accept life as it is and go with the flow

Just clarifying if what i interpreted you correctly

Well, yes, sort of. But I am neurodiverse so it is not that easy just to go with the flow.

 

[RhySantos]

Well, yes, sort of. But I am neurodiverse so it is not that easy just to go with the flow.

Your idea is that you accept all religions
That is similar to a religion called Bahá'í (belief that all Gods are one, ie acceptance of all religion)

As a Christian my answer to the "Is God a He or a She" Goes like this:
You see, God is a creator who created human beings in his image.. Which also includes women too btw..
Therefore logically you will conclude that in the context of gender..God is neither.

Many therefore will go one to say that God's pronoun is 'it' , but as we know God is an omnipotent,all powerful, all knowing entity with conscience therefore he cannot be characterised that.

God the Father's love towards human beings is illustrated as having fatherly qualities.. As a protector.. And it also shows his superiority in comparison to his children.

Jesus is called the Son of God because he was inferior at the time to God the Father
Because Jesus humbled himself to be human and when in human form Jesus wasn't omni-present as he was (at the time) not in his spirit/spiritual form

Therefore we refer to God as a he

Ohh now that explains your logo

Well, I am not a theist. But yes, we all use different points of views.

Good spotting that.

So an atheist who accepts all point of views

 

[mikkel_the_dane]

So an atheist who accepts all point of views

Well, yes. I tried to figure out if I was right and other people wrong for how we live. I found I couldn't prove that in any sense for both right and wrong.
Now off course I have my personal norms, but they are neither right or wrong. They are just how I do it as it makes sense to me.

Good spotting that.

You made the logo yourself?
