But this person's definition of God is described as "what is", and this the exact definition in the pantheistic view which has been used since ancient times...
"Faith is the substance of things hoped for; the evidence of things not seen... For the things which are seen are not made of things which are visible." -Hebrews 11
all because he gave us fire our first true piece of technology, fire. 100,000 BC: stone tools, 4000 BC: the wheel, 9th century AD: Gun powder, a bit of a game changer that one, 19th century, Eureka! : The light bulb, 20th Century: The automobile, television, nuclear weapons, space craft, internet, 21st Century: biotech, nano tech, fusion and fission and M theory and that was just the first decade. We are not three months into the year of our Lord, 2023. At this moment in our civilization, we can create cybernetic individuals who in just a few short years will be completely indistinguishable from us, which leads to an obvious conclusion, we are the Gods now.

So you are then saying that this is irrefutable evidence that god exists?
Because, all in all a definition or idea is still a belief, regardless of how broad it may be

if god is reality, does it care about you? is it intelligent? is it worth worshiping or just admiring?

If god has all the characteristics that religion speaks of, then WHY would god need MAN to write a book for him when god could just simply show us humans everything through real-life experiences?
Religious people just refuse to use the brain that they were given to USE...edit on 21-4-2012 by HangTheTraitors because: (no reason given)

your giving reality a face, human traits. the universe doesnt have consciousness. there are conscious beings in it but itself is just energy and matter.

hmm I dont know if I accept that.
see, the theory of every god or deity,supreme,entity,creator,omni,thing is. that they usually are seperate from the whole. The fundamentals of a hologram are that each part reflects the whole. So with this in mind, how can something be "separate" from this world, as in (exists outside,before,after) this reality, yet still have power and ability within it. while being disconnected.
