Somebody shared this last week. I need to finish up the interview. Not that it matters but FYI he's MAGA :hubie:


Its hard to explain without basically repeating him but basically, the fact that we have a word for "reality" and a relationship with it establishes that it has an identity. Not in the human being sense but an identity nonetheless. And it precedes and will remain beyond our lives, so... God.

He delves a bit deeper in the full interview relating it to a computer. We're in the screen interface (reality) but behind their a processes being input/output. The same way its all a computer, its all God.

He's not saying the Christian God or abrahamic God is real

He's saying the concept of reality itself fits the traits and functions of God as described in most world religions

Which is something a lot of us have thought before. But don't take this to mean you have proof Jesus is actually coming back or heaven and hell are real:mjlol:

This is only about creation and the complexity of the reality we live in. Not an indorsement for your religion of choice

Anyone honest with themselves agrees.

Prominent scientific theorists admit that the more we are understanding of our reality, the farther we get from comfortably saying this said reality is a “random” occurrence. It’s just statistically improbable.

Every design has a designer. Every creation has a creator. Why would we and life itself be different?

We can see into our cells and how they move like a supreme manufacturing plant, engineered with precision, with checkpoints and garbage disposals. Millions of them doing this all day every day from the second of our conception and we’re supposed just assume this happened by chance? Us, human beings, whose most intelligent minds working in tandem can’t create a single sentient life from scratch?

Hmm.

I came up to this conclusion on my own. Studying nature is an easy way to end up a believer in intelligent design.

So many of our natural ecosystems are both amazingly balanced & complementary. While at the same time being extremely delicate. No way all these complementary ecosystems and creatures all developed their roles by pure chance.

Well then that's kind of a stretch from what OP and others believe God to be.

I'm agnostic atheist but I do believe that if a "god" were to exist, it wouldn't give a shyt about us or anything really.

We're humanizing "him" far too much.

Meh. The interviewer didn't ask if Jesus exists he asked if God does and when he broke it his opinion down, the interviewer still found a way to relate.

I'm not religious, but I can allow some space in my mind for there being a creator of some sort...

What I'll never buy into is the notion of some omnipotent being that creates faulty organisms (those faults also being his creation, since he created all of this) that he keeps a record of their behavior for the sake of judging them upon death. If he could create something as deeply intricate as this entire universe, he could have created morally perfect beings who function solely within his way in the first place.

An omnipotent leader who threatens eternal punishment for those who corrupt his moral code, yet never intercedes in real-time on behalf of those who are innocent victims of the corrupt.

Children born with terminal defects and who's life will expire before they had a chance to even write the prologue of their life story.

A book of devotion that is full of easily debunked ideas such as a whale swallowing a human (and that human somehow escaping the horrors of the stomach and digestion), a lack of mention of organisms that existed for eons before us, warm blooded animals living for hundreds of years, zero mention of his creation at an atomic level as well as zero mention of a microscopic world that can eradicate mankind, but he allows to adapt and thrive better than his precious human beings. A book of misinformation and misdirection at best, and outright lies at worst.

And of course, has a convenient scapegoat for when things go wrong so he is absolved for any of his own fukk ups. A convenient scapegoat that he himself created, btw.

An arbitrary Creator? Sure, I can allow it.

A God who needs to be feared and worshipped or else there's literal hell to pay like an abusive parent who uses the worst tactics to control those he also granted free-will to? FUKK NO.
