RE: Let's Talk about God: YOUR Most Important Dilemma

in #religion6 years ago

I think we need a notion of god simply to stop humans from indulging in being gods themselves. The rise of the religion of atheism is indeed very disturbing as they seek to put humans at the top of the tree of power. As you say, we well know what this leads to. I do not understand anyone who claims to know god (which is the same as claiming there is no god). Surely there can be no bigger folly than to claim divine knowledge.

Sort:  

Well said, agreed.

The premise that humans should stop indulging in being gods themselves, however, is one that bears discussion.

Perhaps humans could adopt the mindset of assuming the position of being lesser gods, in their ability to even recognize the possible existence of an all-powerful, omniscient & omnipotent symbol which defies description; in whatever manner an individual may attempt to characterize that idea without going mad...

Semantics confound the idea of a 'lesser god,' akin to claiming that someone is "a little bit pregnant."

Stretching our minds in heretofore fresh positions promotes neurogenic growth...

Together, let's all work a little harder:
At encouraging our minds to be greater tomorrow than what they are today.
