so a little update on my reading which i found it very interesting;
let me first define the short definition of Omniscient – all knowing
Omnipotence – all powerful; unlimited power
the thing is you can’t have omniscience and omnipotence together…they are incompatible with one another.
Richard Dawkins:
If God is omniscient, he must already know how he is going to intervene to change the course of history using his omnipotence. But that means he can’t change his mind about his intervention, which means he is not omnipotent.
Karen Owens made an equally engaging verse with this paradox
Can omniscient God, who
Knows the future, find
The omnipotence to
Change His future mind?
that about that carefully. im sure you really can’t answer that. because it contradicts.
I definitely suggest reading richard dawkins’ “The God Delusion”
even if you are a believer, read it and seriously think about what is being said and how it is definitely related
open up your mind
Richard Dawkins narrowed it down to what type of people there are. there’s 7 strengths/categories i guess
1. Strong Theist. 100% probability of god.
2. Very high probability but short of 100%. De facto theist. ‘I cannot know for certain, but strongly believe in God and live my life on the assumption that he is there.’
3. Higher than 50% but not very high. Technically agnostic(someone who is doubtful) but leaning towards theism. ‘I am very uncertain, but I am inclined to believe in God.’
4. Exactly 50%. Completely mutual.
5. Lower than 50% but not very low. Leaning towards atheism. ‘I don’t know whether God exists but I’m inclined to be sceptical.’
6. Very low probability, but short of zero. De facto atheist. ‘I cannot know for certain but I think God is very improbable, and I live my life on the assumption that he is not there.’
7. Strong atheist. ‘I know there is no God.’
Now most people are #6 that are atheist. I, myself, is #6. why? because i can’t prove there’s no god, but neither can #1 can prove it.
I have an open mind, if there’s proof, i will believe there’s god..my condition. I need to see God and speak to him personally. (not thru praying)
Now im not sure, my cousin might believe in God, because of “spirits.”
If you are reading this; don’t get me wrong, i believe there are spirits as much as you do, but it doesn’t necessarily mean theres God that created the whole world and how he has a plan for everything.
Spirits are another form of energy. Energy can’t be created or destroyed. Energy was always there.
So its possible to have spirits. since we did experience it together before, remember?
for my readers that doesn’t know the story
me, my lil brother (lets call him W), my older cuzin(girl..well woman now lol let call her A), my other cuzin(boy/guy, same age as me,lets call him B)
we all were at her place. we heard some a tetris music coming from the first generation GameBoy
anyways the back of it had no batteries…we heard it directly from it…all four of us…so it was just one person’s hearing problem
well..B picked it up and the music stopped…’A’ went to the bathroom, a moment later, she ran out screaming and all red…she said my water gun was floating a bit or something…don’t remember the details since it was like almost 20 years ago
well when i was there, i wasn’t so sure what’s going on, i thought it was just a joke…but scared…
and then as soon as happened…the tv was turning on and off…this is when i thought it was funny anymore
turns out the remote was on top of the tv! after that…Nintendo was going on and off also…but as soon as we started to yell out the window, my cousins’ friends came and everything stopped…
now that i think about it…it was probably a ghost kid playing with us…since we were kids back then…
gameboy, water gun, tv prank, and nintendo…oh yeah i remember what was in the nintendo…the game was ghost busters II, the irony lol
but yeah that was one experience we all remembered
