Sending Messengers.Then, what good is he for?
Not sufficient for you.You do not provide sufficient evidence for us to believe in your God or what you or your prophet said.
I don't agree with that. The universe cannot be "dead", as it contains us.We have evidence of universe, but no evidence of God or soul..
You Believe!!! That is the flaw. Perhaps, you should be working at Discovering the Real Truth instead of settling on mere beliefs.I never said that the Messengers spoke to God, I said that God spoke to the Messengers.
Clearly you do not know God at all since you ignore everything that the Messengers have revealed.
Who said that I want to hear what the Messenger revealed? I do not necessarily want to hear everything that Baha'u'llah revealed, and I certainly do not believe what He revealed is true because it is what I want to hear. I believe it is true because I believe He was a Messenger of God.
You believe your own blarney. That is the flaw. Perhaps you should listen to the Messengers instead of settling on mere beliefs.You Believe!!! That is the flaw. Perhaps, you should be working at Discovering the Real Truth instead of settling on mere beliefs.
You don't know that they don't come from God, you only believe it.If I ignored what the messengers said, how could I know they do not come from God?
Once again you deal in Beliefs. I do not. Why do you expect me to now? Discovering things is not about accepting or rejecting. It's about what is. Can you understand the difference?Are you blind or choosing to be blind? Clearly, you have much to learn but you will never learn anything about God or how He operates since you reject the Messengers of God.
AGAIN, I do not value any petty things mankind holds dear, I only value what God has revealed through the Messengers.
Sorry but no. People do not lack the understanding to be able to make the best choices. People are well aware of what is good and what is evil, and some people choose evil. That makes them evil.
I don't hate anyone. I am just pointing out that there is both good and evil in this world. For an evil person, nothing can be worse than Unconditional Love, because it makes them think that what they are doing is just fine o they continue in their evil behavior. Nobody can help people unless they want help.
That's what I see. It's very clear!!
Who said that the universe is dead? Every atom and even sub-atomic particles are active all the time. Our root is 'physical energy/space'.I don't agree with that. The universe cannot be "dead", as it contains us.
Are we higher than our root? I say not.
You make assumptions in order to make everything fit into your box of beliefs.So God has a physical form. Please describe it to me so I'll know it when I see it.
Self-awareness is a set of brain states and brain-processes. So are all brain functions including language, thought, sensory monitoring, memory, imagination, dreaming, and so on. Objective reality exists as the world external to the self which we know about through our senses. It continues to exist independently of any individual or collective. It will still be there when there are no more humans, for example.
Why would you think otherwise?
..so not dead then .. but dumb? non-aware?Who said that the universe is dead? Every atom and even sub-atomic particles are active all the time. Our root is 'physical energy/space'..
If the universe is aware, then there is G-dThe question I posted was 'What proof you have for God or messengers?'
Why do you ALWAYS duck that question?You make assumptions in order to make everything fit into your box of beliefs.
Universe is not aware, it is reactive because of four fundamental forces of nature...so not dead then .. but dumb? non-aware?
If the universe is aware, then there is G-d
It's a bit like looking in parallel mirrors .. it goes on and on.
"He said, he wrote" - Sure, what an uneducated 19th Century Iranian Shia, who never studied in a school, says or writes, and who claims to be a messenger from Allah without ever providing any other evidence - that alone is not sufficient enough for me in this 21st Century..Not sufficient for you.
I have beliefs but so do you. You just refuse to admit it. What you have are beliefs because they are not facts.Once again you deal in Beliefs. I do not. Why do you expect me to now? Discovering things is not about accepting or rejecting. It's about what is. Can you understand the difference?
No, you do not know God and you have had no interaction with God. I consider you to be delusional.I know God. I have had Interaction with God.
No, you do not know that, you only BELIEVE that.I know what the messengers are teaching is not God. If they were teaching God, you would see a Masterpiece instead of a mess. This is what is!!!
I have lived a lot longer than you have and I have discovered more than you have. My beliefs don't interfere with my living life.On the other hand, since you have done little Discovering on your own, all you have are Beliefs.
That is what you do, pick beliefs that make you happy. That is not what I do.If beliefs are all you value, does it really matter which beliefs you pick? Pick whatever makes you happy.
I have what I can know of the truth about God. You have nothing but your made up beliefs.Of course, there will come a time when truth will become more important to you. It appears this is not that time.
OK. Let's sum it up. You do not Understand anything about God. You call what God has revealed through Messengers petty.OK. Let's sum it up a bit. You do not Understand God. You do not Understand the petty things mankind holds so dear, You do not Understand Unconditional Love.
The universe contains us .. are you not aware???Universe is not aware, it is reactive because of four fundamental forces of nature.
Proof?How does that prove existence of God and his sending messengers to the world?
That is the error of assuming that what is true of a member of a group is true for the group as a whole.The universe contains us .. are you not aware???
What are we? Just one of the 8 million+ species of a small planet of a small sun in some 200 billion to 2 trillion galaxies in the observable universe each having perhaps 100 billion stars (if we take Milky Way galaxy as a model, it being one of the smaller galaxies, stats from Google Search). We (and other living beings, animals and vegetation) are aware because of the arrangement of atoms for a short period of time (shorter for animals as compared to some vegetation species). It is hardly anything to brag about.The universe contains us .. are you not aware???
Proof? It is elementary, my dear Watson.
It's no mistake!That is the error of assuming that what is true of a member of a group is true for the group as a whole.
You can think of yourself as "insignificant", if it pleases youWhat are we? Just one of the 8 million+ species of a small planet of a small sun in some 200 billion to 2 trillion galaxies in the observable universe..
Not only is assuming that what is true of a member of a group is true for the group as a whole an error, but it's a logical fallacy. Containers don't necessarily take on the characteristic of what they contain.It's no mistake!
Now, if I had said that we are aware, so a handful of dust is aware .. that would be a mistake.
..but the universe encompasses all.
It does not "become" aware .. a box is a box, and a human being is a human being.By your reasoning, if I put you in a steel box, the steel box becomes aware merely because it encompasses you.
