Christian Brehs: Why would God make some people smarter than others?

[Apollo Creed]

hard to disprove that which doesn't exist.

maybe the thing THEY are targeting is your errant thinking and reasoning - which does happen to exist.

i might be wrong tho.

ask them the next time someone does it.

And my response is that how miserable is your existance that you waste your time on this especially with people who wouldn't care nore be impacted if you died right now.

I would think someone who doesn't believe in God would also acknowledging and understand that they are also just as irrelevant and maybe even useless in the grand scheme of reality thus their arrogance to police thought is comedic (because as mentioned if they died a brutal death now it wouldn't even matter in the grand scheme of life).

And that is because you cannot stop thinking and approaching this emotionally.

Seeking answers, broadening the mind, learning, new concepts.

These things are never a waste of time.

if you’re not referring to IQ then clarify what you’re referring to…

ok.

1 answer. 2 questionw. if i may.

answer 1: i am talking about intelligence not just about iq.

question 1: do you understand what getting bogged down in the weeds means in the context of an argument/discussion?

question 2: do you understand how getting bogged down in the weeds can be used against subtle arguments?

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

People who aren’t religious are treated like outcast.

This sounds like a personal problem

 

[RamsayBolton]

im not even religious but i dont understand how us not having the same intelligence is a gotcha against religion?

 

[The Half-Blood FKA Prince]

what's funny is nikkas like start praying to "God" when they about to die.

 

[bourgeoisie tall freak]

the bottom line is that we are all god's children, black white, smart, not so smart, rich poor, whatever.
so i think if you are asking this question, you are forgetting the lesson that no distinctions really matter.
ima pray for you.

this doesn’t provide any specificity or clarity on how you’re defining intelligence…

to answer your two questions, yes and yes. If you’re considering wanting clarity on how you’re defining a term that’s at the core of your question “getting in the weeds” then i don’t believe you’re actually looking for an answer…

 

[Savvir]

I'm agnostic myself...

but it's funny when people ask for reasons "why" God did something...

like we as humans, with a limited understanding of just the planet we are on let alone the entire universe and our own existence, with our finite lifespans and severely limited perception of the world itself.... would even be able to comprehend an omniscient God's reasoning....

 

[Black Hans]

Because you can't build a house when all tools are the same.

 

[Secure Da Bag]

variety is the spice of life. plus your definition of smart is quite myopic. which probably explains why you're not a god much less the God.

 

[MBwithadream]

First some of you have to believe that the devil exist before you think about God

 

[MBwithadream]

You gotta read the other books of the bible.

another reason not to answer ... ?

maybe there is an OBVIOUS alternate approach.

one that is often used to avoid getting "bogged down in the weeds."

how about: i am willing for the purposes of this discussion" to accept your (or anyone else's) definition as long as the definition doesn't stray too far away from the/my middle path.

that way distracting arguments can be postponed and do not become blockers.

how about it eh
