All the evidence for God comes from sense data

Total rubbish. If god exists but he hasn’t made his presence felt during the known period of the sapiens existence, he is of no interest to me at all and doesn’t exist in any practical way. It is said Man is made to reflect god, but who would make this utterly vile, stupid, corrupt, venal and malicious creature as in his image. Using big words doesn’t mean philosophy, it’s sophistry to delude infant minds.

We cannot know if a god or gods exist pretty much obliterates the meaning of every belief systems humans have ever created. I agree. 👍🏼

Humans, by their nature, do not stop off at “I don’t know.” They always proceed haughtily forward as if they know or can gain to the position of knowing. And they do this because there was zero cost to one’s survival and reproductive chances by maintaining the opinion of knowing or potentially knowing. We are all arrogant because evolutionary biology never significantly punished us for being that way.

Kant gave a proto Darwinian proof of evolution as because human babies make so much noise that they would have alerted predators of their presence and therefore eradicated the species. Therefore, all that racket must have evolved later.

Good analogy. Then the next question is how do we tune in like the radio to know and experience Gods presence that include infinite miracles of co creation? Prayer and meditation. The vastness of the universe is connected by space. In that space should equal the universe. Thank you God! Thank Jesus for sharing your love and salvation.

How is reality defined?

God is the radio wave and the Bible is the radio, and we know God through the radio(the Bible)

Obvious from all the discussions that the existence or not of God depends on the majority opinion of humans. If it doesn't then why are humans discussing it? If not to influence the opinion of a majority of humans?

Very nice! Thank you. I began college life in 1972 as a philosophy major. (Changed to economics after getting my questions answered in existentialism class). Most classes were quite technical and deep so I appreciate these lovely insights.

God ( consciousness ) exists that's why u exist. It's simple

I read Kant more than 40 years ago. Kant would not consider this possibility: what about God revealed Himself through His Son to us? Kant didn't allow God to be able to reveal Himself through His Son. It looks Kant wanted to know God more than God knows about Himself. Now this is where philosophy comes to a stop and where theology begins.

Typical philosopher, full of bullshit

a radio does not experience or interpret...anything. Neither does a computer. We are not radios or computers. And as it turns out, we do know god, and he knows us. But there's a gap between us, who are created, and God, who is uncreated. Still, reducing God to a wave that can only be received by a dead technological object, also reduces our approach to god according to our modern technological thinking. Not true, or good, or beautiful.

If a God of wisdom exists, that would change everything. How do we test to see if a God of wisdom exists?

This is rubbish the smoke and mirrors of all religions. All Kant quotes are not fact they are a philosopher personal opinion, nothing more and nothing less, to use his quotes as fact to build a rational argument is pathetic, why Kant when we have lots of people who have opinions.

There are two reasons God most likely doesn't exist. 95% of the Biblical authors' identities are simply not known. Abraham didn't exist. No Abraham means no Judaism, Christianity, or Islam. The Bible is simply man-made b.s. from start to finish. This leads me to believe its God was made-up as well.

To the question "Does God exist?" only God can answer! To know His answer read His book Holy Quran!

Not likely...

The irony, in understanding what this man is attempting to describe, is the contradiction one faces when hearing what fundamentalist claim to be true.

Of course it doesnt exist, otherwise many would have returned back from the dead to tll us otherwise.

I have no sure answer to the question does God exist. But I know if there is truly a God, a supernatural being, then what we mankind think has zero to do with a God existing or not. God either exist or doesn't, and what men think on that has nothing to do with reality but is mere entertainment. For almost all humans, God is what a strong father in the family is. God is based on the strong father figure. He must be obeyed or Father will punish you when he gets home. But is this from human experience or from knowledge of the true God? Does human experience create the God figure rather than the other way around, God created us? There is no sure answer to my thinking. So it's all about being entertained.

as far as we know 3 + 2 = 5 is the only thing 100% certain, the rest, specially in politics and religion, is highly uncertain

I don't know if a god exists or not but I certainly don't believe in the god/gods that man has created.

Atheist & Believer these two system wrong way. The Nature is itself direct one type alternative god.

Any particular reason you offered a rebuttal to Epicurus but simply explained (and very well done by the way) Kant, Planling, Aquinas, and Hume?

Ele não acredita em nada alem dele proprio.

I wonder if Imannuel ever trod on a lego in his bare feet. That's pretty fckng real...even if it isn't. 🥺

God was created by the creator several years ago! God chose not to have a false past to a real past! Sincerely the senior foundation creator! note I am not Larry!

Well I listened carefully to know the answer but the answer was no answer. I find it very frustrating.

NO GOD.

God exists. What do I mean by “God”?

No one knows

The quote from Immanuel Kant makes perfect sense. Why do you act like it is difficult? He is saying if we are able to think about the infinite and the cosmos, it is because something in our minds allows us to do so, but at the same time we realize what we are doing is thinking rationally about that which we cannot measure. Infinity is beyond our senses, yet some power in our mind lets us use our senses to think about it.

It is 11:59 pm. Do I know whether I will exist in the next day, at 12:01 am. Since we are adjudicating Hume, I thought he was saying that ‘God’ is a preferable alternative in pursuit of order. I may be wrong, but not that wrong. Literalist drive me cookoo clock crazy.

How do you know I can't experience God?

Yes, God exists. But if you keep asking humans for proof, you’re never gonna find it. All the proof you need of God’s existence, is in the Bible.

Yes, God exist.

Life is a preparation for something that never happens

Start with explaining which god of the more than 3000 mankind created you are rambling about and then we can have an adult discussion.

The sentence or phrase "that's what philosophers do" undermines the idea that we should listen to what they have to say. They are just ideas. Notions that occurred in a human mind while it wasn't occupied with practical human existence.

A lot of talking about nothing

1. The Universe's existence is either necessary, contingent, or impossible. 2. It is not necessary. 3. It is not impossible. 4.Therefore, the Universe's existence is contingent. Everything that is contingent is contingent on something; otherwise, it's not contingent. If it's not contingent, then it's self-existent, in which case it's logically necessary.

Science can only seek relative truth (falsifiable), while religion seeks absolute truth (unfalsifiable). We must go beyond science to uncover the absolute truth or ultimate reality. Religion provides reason, assumption, and framework for science. Evidence of God or ultimate reality is everywhere. It is the fundamental substance of the universe. Science and religion know the nature of this substance well. Its laws were derived logically more than 3000 years ago. To have a good life, we must navigate these natural laws. Bad practice doesn't invalidate the ultimate reality. However, there is certainly a lot of harm perpetrated in the name of religion.

Reliance on a purported "sensus divinitatis" is embarrassing. It doesn't even qualify as philosophy. It's a circular theological maneuver. "Belief in God is based on the ability to believe in God."

describing god is like trying to describe humans on other planets...

btw, what actually is a god...?

The simple answer is yes.
