Could it be possible to have Mass? without Gravity? or Matter without Consciousness?
By: jamesregmorris. on 23 Jan 12, 02:11:57
I'm an atheist, I too don't discount the possibility of stef's definition of a god, consciousness without mater, etc, because I don't know and can't prove it, but I wouldn't call it god. I would call it a product of nature we don't know about, life as we don't know it. Maybe you can have consciousness without matter, but it would be a complete unknown, so how can I say I know about a complete unknown. It's very unlikely to exist and if it does I definitely dont? beleive in religion,100% on that

Atheists and religious folk are peas in the same pod, IMHO...both deal with absolutes...in essence, the acknowledgement of absence of a diety is the same as believing in one because one way or another, you think you KNOW. One thing that human history can teach? us is that we don't know jackshit

I have to disagree with Stef here. He uses laws of nature as we currently know them, but I would contend that we do not understand a tenth of what there is to truly know about the laws of nature and the true form of the universe. We are barely scratching the surface. In our reality consiousness may require physical form but this discounts the possibilities presented by string theory M-theory? and parallel dimensions which may have other physical realities. That's is why I'm agnostic.
By: americaninkorea. on 04 Oct 11, 14:01:38
But Stef, if we go with the definition of God you offered at the beginning, and if there were such an all powerful God (the origin of all things and the author of the laws of nature) it sounds rational to admit that that God could violate the laws of nature. Hence there would be contradiction with the existence of a consciousness independent? of matter.

read the definitions of the words and pick one. ? no need for debate. everyone is agnostic!!!

Panentheism is really the belief in an ultimate totality which? one names God, without interjection of the supernatural or theism.
By: osheaad. on 11 Jul 11, 22:00:47
I do not know the ultimate nature of reality; God is proposed as an ultimate nature, thus I know not whether God is real. So, to answer the question "does God exist?", I say "I? cannot answer that question, and to do so is a delusion that one is knowledgable, where one is ignorant." Do you believe in God? "I cannot judge honestly, but it seems inconsistent to say 'there exists God', so I don't believe per se." Do you not believe in God? Yes, but I cannot say, "God does not exist" either.

a black hole is an inverted god hypothesis. it can be measured, calculated but don't actually exist because singularity can't exist in reality. it's a math trick? to cover all the dead ends no one can answer without it. when you look at the universe you can't see beyond the horizon. floating in the middle of the ocean, all you can see is water. there is a horizon you can't breach. leave a possibility that there is something beyond. we don't know and until we do no one can truly be an atheist.

stef says a square circle can't exist but at the beginning he defined god as a omnipotent, eternal consciousness without material form and later says it has to be a supernatural being that you can measure which is a square circle definition by itself. a god people usually talk about is the creator god. the fact that stuff exists something had to make the stuff. if people in space are to god what bacteria in petri dish are to a? lab technician how can we ever be aware of god/lab technician?

@dougtraceur It sounds to me like you? are an atheist, or someone who accepts that contradictory entities with no physical manifestation do not exist. :)
By: dougtraceur. on 24 May 11, 23:14:51
Could someone explain what my belief is? I'm a physicist so naturally I feel if I? can't measure something like whether a god exists or not or I can't fit it into a standard model of science, then it doesn't make sense to argue whether it may or may not be true. Like in quantum physics, a particle doesn't have a definite position until you measure it, experiments and models can't show where that particle might be before so it debating about where it was is essentially meaningless.

can agnostics be agnostic about unicorns? Santa Clause?? or any other mythical beings/creatures?
By: alistairproductions. on 29 Apr 11, 10:36:44
Lets be honest. The guy on the right? mostly believes in Doritos
By: Sklujan. on 29 Apr 11, 04:53:25
@JoseMejiaV The burden of proof? is generally on the person making the claim.

DMT=? near death religious experiences.
By: originalmiller. on 29 Apr 11, 04:26:07
@JoseMejiaV You CANNOT prove that pink unicorns are not prancing around my room right? now so if I assert that pink unicorns are dancing around my room what would you say?
By: MrGarky. on 08 Apr 11, 00:43:10
@JoseMejiaV By asserting that you can't be 100% sure despite all the logical contradictions, you're putting yourself into the self? contradictory philosophical camp of "You can't be sure of anything" which includes the statement that you can't be sure of anything.

stefan wins hand down? for me.
By: TurboDally. on 15 Mar 11, 01:10:24
Another example, I believe that extra-terrestial life exists, I don't KNOW this- hence? "theist/ET" agnostic. I don't have to assert no gods, exist to reject a claim I find insufficiently supported w/ evidence. I also don't have to assert Zeus doesn't exist to reject the claim of his existence. There's also another problem which peopel forget, when asking what you BELIEVE- we're not asking what you KNOW.
By: TurboDally. on 15 Mar 11, 01:07:46
@IcyWeazel And you're what? Dishonest? I'd think? so. Atheist: prefix "a" means "without", theist- belief in gods. Therefore "atheist" is without belief in gods. Atheism and agnosticism are not mutually exclusive as one of the definitions of agnosticism addresses knowledge. I for example do not believe there is a gold core in the Moon (atheist), but I don't KNOW this for sure (agnostic). There's another defn for agnostic which asserts "it's unknowable", which I think is far fetched.
By: IcyWeazel. on 14 Mar 11, 20:09:51
Athiests: a) actually agnostics who say "atheist" because they're ill-informed,? want to sound cool, or want to fit into an "atheist" group or culture or b) stupid people almost as bad as fundamental christians/muslims/etc.
By: theclinger. on 26 Feb 11, 05:41:23
@JoseMejiaV I also cannot prove that? the FSM does not exist. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
By: kuronity. on 15 Jan 11, 23:47:38
@JoseMejiaV Well I can't be sure there aren't invisible non-smelly turds flying around my head either, nor can I be sure that there aren't someone who's lightning fast standing behind me that I can never see because he's invisible in mirrors and that the rest of the people around me never tell me about.? It's just a silly argument, personally I just sort some shit out as bullshit and it makes stuff a lot easier.
By: Nyax727. on 11 Jan 11, 22:24:39
Does anyone else think the Agnostic? doesn't seem to make any sense. Nothing he is saying seems to meaning anything. He is playing words games with no real logic or evidence.
