    Hi! I'm back!

    Hi guys, I'm back after a couple of thousand years. What do I have to do to convince you I'm God?

    Evaluate this statement for logic

    I will preface this by saying that I've read most of this guys blog and he makes many, many good points. He says he is all about rationality, scientific thinking and skepticism and there is evidence all over his blog that points to just that. I fact, I've had a few e-mail conversations with...

    The Omnipotence of God - A Serious Question

    To any believers in an all-powerful God, I have a question for you. It may seem stupid at first, but it is a serious question, and I'm interested in seeing serious responses to this question. Here goes... If an all-powerful God exists, could God make a rock so heavy that He couldn't lift it...

    A History of God

    I just ran across this little gem explaining the history of the Hebrew god. MlnnWbkMlbg A lot of this I already knew, but a few bits were new to me. In particular, knowing that Yahweh was originally the Hebrew god of war makes so many of the passages about him in the Bible make far more sense.

    What did God do on the eighth day?

    To me one of the most obvious things in the Bible that shows humans have made it up is the idea that God had to rest after finishing the job of creating everything. Only human beings could have thought of giving God a resting period (how very altruistic of them). Why would an omnipotent and...

    Evidentialism "Proves" Atheists Wrong.

    This was sent to me by someone on another list as something to convince me that God exists. It did not. :( http://www.philosophynow.org/issue78/78antony.htm Does it convince anyone here? :hit:

    Argument from Consciousness

    My next, and I promise the last, in my series of Theism's best case. Again, this is from Blackwell's Companion to Natural Theology and it is called the "Argument from Consciousness", by JP Moreland. For some reason I had expected to be more challenged by this argument. There are a lot of...

    Modal Perfection Argument

    Previously I introduced a thread about the Gale-Pruss Ontological argument. This is one of the arguments that is regarded as Theism's best case. Another such is Robert Maydole's "Modal Perfection" argument. It is presented in the "Blackwell Companion to Natural Theology", however I found in...

    Is God necessary for (objective) morality?

    I just finished watching this debate between William Lane Craig and Shelly Kagan on the topic "Is God Necessary for Morality?" I have seen a lot of debates with Craig and I think this is probably the only debate where his opponent outperformed him. Kagan does this by arguing that objective...

    The Gale-Pruss Cosmological Argument

    I thought that maybe God needs a better champion than Yrreg. This argument does not seem to have been discussed here before, so I thought I would run it up the flagpole www.lastseminary.com/cosmological-argument/A%20New%20Cosmological%20Argument.pdf and see what people made of it. My...

    What is your opoinion of this Tachikoma's take on "God"?

    "I think I'm starting to understand it now. Maybe, just maybe, it's a concept that's similar to a zero in mathematics. In other words, it's a symbol that denies the absence of meaning, the meaning that's necessitated by the delineation of one system from another. In analog, that's God. In...

    Is Christianity Really Monotheism?

    When I read a description of Christianity, it is often described as being Monotheistic. Is this really the case? Unless I misunderstand, it seems that God is not the only "deity" that exists within the Christian belief system. There is also Satan, as well as various angles and demons. A number...

    Ever heard of this argument?

    After reading Warren's The Purpose Driven Life, I came across this bit on page 43: "One day you will stand before God, and he will do an audit of your life...before you enter eternity." Next paragraph. "First, 'What did you do with my Son, Jesus Christ?' God won't ask you about your religious...

    God is Mental (or Dr. Righteous Ideal Dung)

    Case for Christ by an Atheist and evidence for God.

    Why does God hate sex?

    This is a question that occurred to me while catching up on the "Love the Christian" thread. God hates sex. You can't have sex unless you are married - it's a sin. You can't have homosexual sex - it's a sin. You can't use birth control - it's a sin. You can't show bare skin in public - it's a...

    God is an outdated concept

    I believe that the concept of God is obsolete by at least 1000 years. When people did not have the proper technology, it was essential to create myths about the origin of the universe, the Earth, and life in general. We know factually now, through science, that the universe began at a definite...
