Typical modern day Christians are basically atheists when you think about it.

 

Atheists obviously don't believe God exists. Which is equivalent to saying that God is nothing because nothing is something that doesn't exist.

If you ask a Christian who created God you'll get some nonsensical answer like "God is outside of everything, outside all of time and space and therefore doesn't need a cause". And it's like wait a minute, the only thing that can be outside of everything is nothing. Because if something was outside of everything then everything wouldn't be everything, it be something's. Christians literally believe that God is nothing, which again is something that doesn't exist. How is that different from atheism?

If you're familiar with my posts then you of course know that I believe, or rather know, that God is everything, and that everything created itself from nothing. Christians say my beliefs are heretical. And I ask them shouldn't God mean everything to you rather than nothing?

Another atheistic belief of theirs is that God is supernatural. If you think God is supernatural you might as well call him a dumb unconscious idiot that applied no intelligent effort when creating us. He just snapped his fingers and we popped into existence. Again how is this different than the atheistic belief that reality is a unconscious idiot that made us by accident?

I of course know that reality is conscious and intelligent. It's evident that reality expresses it's consciousness through us for we are conscious and we are made out of reality and dictated by the forces of reality. So obviously if the forces of nature is solely responsible for causing every thought that occurs then reality is obviously conscious and intelligent.

Logically it's so obvious that God is the fundamental forces of nature. If all of reality exists because of God then by definition that would make God fundamental to reality. So what else would God be if not the fundamental forces of nature? How else would God create everything? By not applying force? But Christians hear this and cry heresy and continue to claim that God is not everything but outside everything while refusing to acknowledge that this means they believe God is nothing.

Another commonly held belief of theirs that bothers me is their belief that God doesn't need a cause. It bothers me because it contradicts their belief that God is independent of all things. Being independent of all things means God only depends upon himself. But if God always existed that means that God is not the reason he exists. If he is not the reason he exists then his existence would be dependent upon some external factor outside God's control, making him not independent of all things.

So if God is truly independent of all things, which he is, then God must be the reason God exists. Meaning that God is his own Creator. And I spelled out how all of that is possible in my previous post. Christians hear that and they cry heresy. I don't see why they have such an issue with God being his own Creator, or being everything, or not being supernatural. What's so offensive about that?

Are we just emotionally attached to beliefs we grew up with but never questioned?

Love unbound

 A QUESTION FOR BELIEVERS ONLY.  Matthew 16:4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign, John 4:48 Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will by no means believe. John 20:29 because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed. Why do we need to see signs and miracles to believe in the truth? Don't we as an intelligent species have the capacity to discern truth from fiction? If Jesus had performed no miracles but only spoke the truth that love, compassion, forgiveness, and good will toward men is the path to life, would you believe and accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior? These questions are rhetorical, but the next one is not.  Obviously if someone came along and made the claim that he's God or prophet, but gave no compelling explanation as to why we should believe, then we should not believe him. Because anyone could make a baseless claim. But what if someone came with a compelling explanation as to...

Love is a crazy crazy thing part 1

So I have a pretty crazy story to tell. At first it won't sound crazy at all. It'll sound pretty ordinary and at times boring. But if you keep reading I'm sure you'll be surprised by just how crazy it gets. It was pretty hard to figure out where to even start. This story seems like it has so many beginnings. I guess I'll start in the mid to late 2000's.  So over a decade ago I developed this theory that everything works in patterns. When I say everything I mean everything from how it all began to the thoughts we think and the actions we commit. With the billions of people on earth today there must be trillions upon trillions of interactions occuring every second. Despite all these interactions just looking like a ocean of random chaos there must be a pattern to it all. A grand design maybe. Hell if I'll be able to figure out what that pattern is. Around this time when I was thinking this it was also new years eve so I'm also reflecting on the past year o...

Connecting Cain to Moses, Moses to the two witnesses, and the two witnesses to God.

CONNECTING CAIN TO MOSES Cain was cursed to be a wanderer and a fugitive. But we never see Cain endure this curse during the life of Cain. Moses endured this curse though. For forty years Moses was a fugitive after killing an Egyptian. Then for another forty years Cain was a wanderer, wandering the desert with the Jews he freed from Egypt. Just like how Cain founded a great city Moses founded a great nation. CONNECTING MOSES TO THE TWO WITNESSES Moses came down the mountain and after seeing the lewdness of his people out of anger Moses broke the tablets, foreshadowing his breaking of the law that would prevent him from inheriting the promised land. If the first time he came down the mountain foreshadowed his breaking of the law what about the second time he came down the mountain and kept the law and his face shown like the sun?  This clearly foreshadows the fact that Moses will return in the future. And the only ones prophesied to come who has not come yet are the two witnesses....
