A TESTABLE THEORY

if the WHOLE brain is EXISTENTIAL, then, everything IN the brain is
EXISTENTIAL too

also, ALL fictional/mythical/imaginary/religious things that EXIST
within the brain, like God, are EXISTENTIAL, AT LEAST within the
individual mind set or conscious

if there is a collective conscious, then, all things thought of, exist
in the mind set of ALL individuals, EVERYWHERE THERE IS A BRAIN, AT LEAST

science can been able to crudely interpret conceptions and influence
conceptions and the brain, not far off is conceiving of God and
interpreting it IN/FROM the brain

Dale has been consistent through the year and ends it as he began it
with meaningless anti-grammatical twaddle. My filter grow ever
longer as he changes e-mail addresses.

Theroy is quickly proven false by this rational.
1. The definition of existential that applies to your use of the word
is this. <b : having being in time and space>

2.The brain does infact exist in time and space; however, thinking
doesnt.

3.Learn what words actually mean before you actually believe what some
preacher/priest tells you.

2.The brain does infact exist in time and space; however, thinking
doesnt.
my point is that thoughts and thinking ARE part of the brain as a whole,
which is existential, so the PARTS of the whole, like thoughts and
thinking are therefore existential TOO

unless you are saying that "thinking" exists outside of the brain in
some type of central server like a God's mind, I would entertain a
discussion like this
Post by b***@m.nu
Problem is of course that this approach gives you_all_ the gods, and
elves, unicorns, Cthulhu etc too. "X exists" becomes simply a trivial and
uninteresting statement, true for (almost all?) X. "How" they exist by
contrast, and how that affects the logic of statements about them,
becomes a quite interesting question.
the effect is the same, the stories might be different, then again if
you imagine a particular story to be true, that story IS existential as
well WITHIN the brain, AT LEAST

perhaps there is an overarching reality of God OUTSIDE THE BRAIN, but I
can't think of a proof of it

as well, even our EXPERIENCE of our senses of what is OUTSIDE THE BRAIN,
in your conscious, is your brain's INTERPRETATION AND REFLECTION of your
senses, not necessarily what is OUTSIDE THE BRAIN

can you think of a proof that anything exists outside the brain?

not that nothing does, but if you start saying that you have to PROVE
that God exists as something OUTSIDE the conscious, THEN, you have to
prove that ANYTHING exists outside the brain to maintain that critique
of God in particular

hey did you see santa flying th other day? Have you seen harry potter
doing his magic? have you seen the keebler elves making thier cerael?
Can you prove that any of those exist outside the brain? Can you prove
they dont?

so the brain has infinite capacity for such things?

you are saying that thoughts are invisible and mystical

of course, if you are a materialist, thoughts are material and take up
space and time like all other things

well to be honest noone knows the max storage capacity of the brain.
It is very possible that the same cell can store more than one memory
noone may ever know. No I am saying that a thought can occupy the same
area as say another thought. havent you ever thought of 2 things at
one time? in order for something to occupy time it must age. Does an
actual thought age? Sure the nurons age and the cells age but the
actual thought does it age? how is it an old man can remember
something that he did when he was 5 just like it happend yesterday but
he may have trouble remembering what he had for dinner last night.

There are probably higher dimensional information structures(whatever that
means). Said higher dimensional informational structures could well be messing
with the universe. In that context, 'humans' are probably epiphenomenal.
In that context 'humans' need their stories, including "God" stories. Our
hunter-gatherer evolution made us so, for pragmatic reasons.

Maybe replace existential with emergent, and you can
expand that universal concept to, well....life, the universe
and everything else (that matters) imho.
imho this is an true option to what I proposed

I proposed the brain was existential, and thoughts being a part of the
brain whether "real" or imaginary, are EXISTENTIAL

maybe we don't think

maybe we just "react" according to what is placed in us in conception,
our DNA, and what is stored in our brain's, etc., along the way

you could consider God the "central server" of thoughts/fate, and all of
us the "reactant" followers of God's thoughts/fate, this falsifies my
original proposal in a religious way

replace God with "the external physics" in the above statement and you
have falsified my original proposal in an atheistic way

I guess I follow your assertion when I have fear of God that we are
emergent, but anyway, my proposal is testable and falsifiable with your
proposal

I brought up imaginary numbers before ...

if they are EXISTENTIAL then we should have 8 axes instead of 4

but putting all seriousness aside, this kind of stuff does make it fun

to some communal type people religion and laws forthcoming are VERY serious

sometimes I wonder if the motivation of SOME atheists is to avoid
communal responsibility

personally I think fair competition is every area outside human need,
with a moderate safety net, is a better solution than socialism, as all
large implementations have shown, maybe Cuba is small enough to suceed

but to me that just makes me more communally responsible

some atheists are just plain anarchists I think, that is no fun for
anyone but God, in the long run, I AT LEAST want "my" piece of the fun

Well, atheists tend to be rational, logical thinkers. It's like the
saying, "God helps those who help themselves" - he respects and
admires individual initiative. Atheists tend to be intelligent.

Syncretism is the one way to get every believer to hate you even more
than they hate atheists. Atheists are merely unbelievers. Syncretists
are heretics.

Atheists are some of God's favorite people.
Is that because they never blame God for the evil they do?
Well, atheists tend to be rational, logical thinkers.
Really!! They proudly pronounce there is no God, but lack so much as a smidgen
of evidence to make that statement. They lie.
You have made it absolutely clear that you have no evidence that your
god exists. Why do you try to change the subject?
You have made it absolutely clear that you have no support what so ever that
God does not exist.
So the only solution to this dilemma is to hold np beliefs about gods.
the standard atheist solution
Neither a theist nor a contratheist be
Faith in almighty God and his teachings is the key.
because nothing taught about that god can be supported by evidence.
You're here, aren't you?

Aside from your unsubstantiated assertions, you have never made any
effort to tie your claim that God exists to the existence of the
universe or life on earth.

You have not made an argument. You have no supporting evidence.

Ok dune first let me say you are an idiot and then I will inform you
that once a gain you are speaking out of turn. NOONE SAID THE STUPID
PEOPLE IN TH CROWD COULD TALK.
now that has been said I will tell you what exactly an atheist is.
since I have told you this exact definitioin before I am sure it will
not be the last time. After all your god likes to keep its slaves
stupid.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atheism
Atheism is, in a broad sense, the rejection of belief in the existence
of deities. In a narrower sense, atheism is specifically the position
that there are no deities. Most inclusively, atheism is the absence of
belief that any deities exist. Atheism is contrasted with theism,
which in its most general form is the belief that at least one deity
exists.

belief requires faith. atheists REJECT A BELIEF...... did you read
that shit face REFECT BELIEF........
FUCKING IDIOT

actually ass hat I dont need to provide evidence that god doesnt exist
since there is no evidence that a god does exist. So you give me your
beswt evidence for the reasons that god exists then I will give you
proof that it doesnt. and after you have compiled all your data be
sure to add in an explanation of why is it your god exists and the
greek gods dont and the egyptian gods and the norse gods and the
native american gods.
Then after you are done with that part of the response then I want you
to explain to me why that guy next to you in church has a different
god than you do. Also please explain which of those 2 are actually the
real gods or do you count them both as real? and after that pleease
explain why is it the god that your priest believes in is actually
different than the god yyou believe in and which of those are real and
then lastly explain to me why when your dumb ass religon says do not
worship any other god but the one true god you people <chathicks>
acknowledge at least 4 seperate beings as idols and deitys that are
prayed to and worshiped

you stupid fucker it was your priests bishops and popes that did that
shit hundreds of years ago when someone did not believe what they did.
Man you are an ignorant fuck
They did not believe what they believed? And you call me stupid?

Can you offer me any support, any at all, that there is no God?

anyone but God, in the long run, I AT LEAST want "my" piece of the fun
in life
Are you really this stupid and hateful?
Atheists are some of God's favorite people.
I wonder why that would be? Maybe because atheists dont have to lie

communal responsibility
personally I think fair competition is every area outside human need,
with a moderate safety net, is a better solution than socialism, as all
large implementations have shown, maybe Cuba is small enough to suceed
but to me that just makes me more communally responsible
some atheists are just plain anarchists I think, that is no fun for

So you think that God was invented for communitarian purposes and to

undermining the religious con.

Sadly, many of the sociopaths are part of the religious con.

I will admit a way I could be wrong

thoughts might be "models" of what is true

for instance, a 4d animated model of a baby doll isn't a an EXISTENTIAL
baby, but to the mind, inside the mind, the effect is the same

so God may not exist when you think of him in your existential mind, but
a 4d model might be instantiated that effects the same thing TO THE

The term "God" is of Judeo-Christian construct.

Let me write briefly about "Paramatma". The word is made
up of "param" - supreme, and "aatmaa" - soul (approximate
translations). So Paramatma means Supreme Soul.

When writing in English we who follow Sanaatan Dharm,
also known as Hinduism, often use the terms "Paramatma"
and "God" interchangeably though not accurately.
Sanskrit, Hindi and other languages of Bharat (India)
came long before English, so the latter often lacks
backward compatibility in translation.

I am looking at the beautiful blue and turquoise ocean as
I write this.

Consider the ocean to be Paramatma, the Supreme Soul, in
this exercise. Now take an empty cup and immerse it in
the ocean. Keep it submerged. The cup is now filled with
water. Let's call it "individual soul". And the cup is
surrounded on all sides by the ocean or the Supreme Soul.
So although the cup does not contain the entire ocean, it
does contain the essence of the ocean.

Each of us is that cup, the "individual soul", and each
of us has in us the essence of Paramatma, or Supreme
Soul.

Thus Paramatma, or God if you will, exists within each
being.

yes, I am familiar with this term, I prefer it's definition, but use the
term God that most would be familiar without getting it to a war over
religion instead of just getting my point across, I think I will try to
use Paramatma more often and equate it with the word God, since I pick
and choose from various religions to form my own, Vedanta seems to be
the most detailed, although some others have a lot of good Dharma I add
to my collection too

True enough. But it's a different order of existence. The map is not the
territory. You can posses a detailed map which does not correspond to any
real territory. You can imagine all kinds of things which exist only
within the sphere of information.

Father Christmas.

Well people have to have faith in their own processes which deny the
existence of the object of faith of others. Or maybe they have never
made mistakes in the objective (no faith required) world
and so never had a reason to question their own capacity for rational

bliss - "let you and him fight"
I'm an atheist. I've made too many mistakes to count in the objective
world and in the subjective world. I constantly question my capacity
for rational decision. When it comes to "the object of faith of
others," I must admit I haven't considered all of them. The countless
gods mankind has invented throughout history makes doing so an
impossible task. Even if I were to restrict my consideration to the
god of today's three most common monotheistic religions - the
Judeo-Christian-Islamic god - I'd have to confront tens of thousands
of conflicting and incompatible beliefs held by their adherents. Given
that there is no credible verifiable objective evidence to assist me
in such consideration, I am forced to withhold belief in any of them.
As has often been said, they can't all be right but they can all be wrong.

I'm keen to learn how you chose between all of those beliefs before
choosing one. What evidence convinced you that you made the correct
choice? After all, people have to have faith in their own processes
which deny the existence of the object of faith of others. Maybe they
have never made mistakes in the objective (no faith required) world
and so never had a reason to question their own capacity for rational
decision.

bliss - "let you and him fight"
I'm an atheist. I've made too many mistakes to count in the objective
world and in the subjective world. I constantly question my capacity for
rational decision. When it comes to "the object of faith of others," I
must admit I haven't considered all of them. The countless gods mankind
has invented throughout history makes doing so an impossible task. Even
if I were to restrict my consideration to the god of today's three most
common monotheistic religions - the Judeo-Christian-Islamic god - I'd
have to confront tens of thousands of conflicting and incompatible
beliefs held by their adherents. Given that there is no credible
verifiable objective evidence to assist me in such consideration, I am
forced to withhold belief in any of them. As has often been said, they
can't all be right but they can all be wrong.
I'm keen to learn how you chose between all of those beliefs before
choosing one. What evidence convinced you that you made the correct
choice? After all, people have to have faith in their own processes
which deny the existence of the object of faith of others. Maybe they
have never made mistakes in the objective (no faith required) world and
so never had a reason to question their own capacity for rational decision.
I examined the evidence of my own life and the events of the world
whereupon it became clear to me that the Goddess of Discord rules
all especially those with fixed belief systems. You can call her Eris
or Discordia makes no difference to Her. All over the world people
shed blood because they disagree with their cousins as to the exact
nature of whatever divinity they bother.

Don't bother Eris as She will treat you no better than
Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus and Buddhists.

Are you having a good time in the Kali Yuga?
Then praise Kali!
Hare Kali, Hare Kali, Kali, Kali, Hare Kali!
to be repeated ad lib until you are satisfied.
Some Westerners think Kali is merely a witch but she is
the supreme personification of Time much like Cronus,
but more vivid in her inactive activity.

We deny nothing.

We just don't believe.

why are people like this so bereft of knowledge about life in general.
They think everyones brain must be as slow and ill mannered as thiers.
Then reason because they cant think we cant think either.
Idiots alll of them.

Does the fact that god's existence is beyond proof mean god doesn't
exist? Is it necessary to prove the existence of god?
If so _why_? To whom?

As usual, the "mistake" made above is thinking that not believing something
exists something is the same as having a positive belief that it does not
exist. I do not deny the existence of a god, ie I do not claim to know that
none exists; I simply do not believe in any in the same way that I do not
believe in the existence of giant rabbits living under the surface of the
planet Mars. Neither position requires faith only the total lack of any
evidence ever being presented to me. In short your accusation is based on a
strawman, one that many theists seem incapable of giving up.
