It’s a fascinating take @rickygervais
Where it falls down is the inescapable premise that one must define a God to not believe in.
Necessarily that definite thing not to believe in is inside creation and is therefore by definition not God.
So this reduces the argument to “I don’t believe in something I have predefined as not true”.
This however leaves something. Not nothing: Truth.
From here is perfectly reasonable to define God as that which is true and believe in that instead. It’s just to lose the straw man of the “God” one does not believe in by definition.
We can the add some other standard descriptions to that which is truthful, such as the light, the way, all knowing, ever present, judging the living and the dead (or inanimate if one prefers).
So now let’s do some kind of basic test. Say we throw a stone over a building and let’s say it hits an unseen pedestrian. Let’s say upon discovering this was the consequence of throwing the stone we say “oh God I don’t believe it”.
Consider the composition of the stone down to the infinitesimal detail of its mass distribution and topology, everywhere in the universe its elements have been before picking it up, that of every element of the air also, the exact flight path of the stone in relation to every physical reaction - on and on without limit. The thing that judges that in truth it should exactly on its actual trajectory according to any of the laws of physics we know about and are true and any that we have not yet discovered and in detail we cannot simulate to the last degree with any amount of compute. And so on if the aggrieved pedestrian points at us and we say it wasn’t us, that thing that was always there ever present and all knowing knows and it forever knows what happened and can be interrogated. That’s God only a fool struggles to believe in.
It’s also tautological that consciousness exists as a subset of this God (we’re it) and far from irrational to assume it’s a physical phenomenon imbued in creation generally of which we are nodes, literally an image thereof as observers of actors within the observable.
@MikeLevin He clearly is fit to run the Pentagon.
Only an enemy foreign or domestic had cause for complaint.
You should probably have thought this through.
That said, America’s enemies are morons.
Utterly false!
They were attacking federal officers.
One of them attempting vehicular manslaughter and the other after kicking lights off a police car engaged in a fist fight with police while carrying a deadly weapon.
These evil idiots are entirely responsible for the consequences.
🚨 JUST IN: President Trump announces executive order directing Sec. Scott Bessent to *SHUT DOWN* bank accounts used to facilitate illegal immigration or to give illegal aliens welfare
Trump is moving to DE-BANK illegals
LET'S GO, LONG OVERDUE 🔥
"Funds will ultimately face Impoundment and Seizure so they can to be returned to Taxpayers."
"It is not ludicrous, but profoundly dangerous, that any Illegal Alien can simply present a Blue State Drivers License, or Biden Border Document, and have unrestricted access to the U.S. Financial System."
"I recently signed a powerful new Executive Order, which will be led by the Treasury Department, to stop Banks, Credit Cards, and Financial Institutions from being used to facilitate Human Smuggling, Drug Trafficking, Illegal Immigration, and the Criminal Cartels who orchestrate these activities."
"Access to our Nation’s Financial Systems must be limited to those who have a Legal Right to be here, and who are engaged in Lawful and Legitimate Commerce. Bank Accounts being used to enable Illegal Immigration, or to store the Welfare received by Illegal Aliens, will be shut down."
"This also sends a clear message to the anti-ICE rioters that your violent disruptions are only strengthening our resolve. My Executive Order will also allow us to stop Billions in leaving our Country in all manner of criminal activity. It has been said this measure we are taking is the most effective means of reversing Biden’s Border Invasion. We shall soon find out!"
Bessent is going after fraudsters and illegals!
@MilesTaylorUSA Anyone who sets out to be an enemy of the duly elected President of the United States deserves to be destroyed, obviously.
The fact that these public enemies are common criminals is a legal duty to expose.
Any coverup is criminal.
@SarahLongwell25 He “Illegally” exposed Democrat criminals!?
Hello! The purpose of the law is NOT to hush up Democrat criminality.
It’s time for mass arrests of Democrat criminals with no fear or favor.
Past due by decades. Enough is enough!
And there it is:
More perjury:
@RogerJStoneJr CONFIRMED:
Hillary Clinton testified under oath that she had never met Jeffrey Pedostein or had any contact with him.
Jeffrey Pedostein funded:
A. Hillary Clinton’s Senate race
B. Her money-laundering operation—the Clinton Foundation
C. The TerraMar Project, headed by Ghislaine Maxwell
And
D. Hillary Clinton storms out of Pedopstein deposition because a photo of her was taken and posted on social media?
No. She lied under oath and needed any excuse to run out.
Hey Michael - the gig is up. The entire country knows that election was stolen & Tina Peters was punished because she got the only copy of voting machine servers before the evidence could be erased. So you can stop lying now.
@20committee It’s wonderful to see evil people panicking over Pulte’s appointment.
Congratulations America 🇺🇸
Maybe we finally see justice done and seem to be done.
🙏
