Our opinions different, and quite frankly, you piss me off. So I'm no longer discussing the matter with you. I'm not telling you you are wrong, I am saying you are to respect me on my thread.
Have a good one.
Thankfully I am not beholden to you so my participation will continue. When you address divinity eg. Our God...The Sun? Then worship comes into the picture. It is not debasing to have respect and humility toward your creator.
It might be debasing if your ego will not allow you to accept any higher than yourself, is that the issue?
You speak of logic then delve into speculation. You talk about attributes of God well how about you use your logic and apply it to the sun and see if stands? It wont.
The sun is something tangible and observable. 'Our God' isn't.

Oh, so a god has to be intangible? Do tell me where you become so knowledgeable on the subject?edit on 10-11-2012 by AfterInfinity because: (no reason given)
And by that I mean the God defined in the dictionary. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. Or do I need to explain it to you?
Is the sun the creator and ruler of the universe and source of moral authority? I guess it may be too complicated for some.

Can't say I agree with that, because it could just as easily be coincidence. But whatever.

Cut the condescension crap, if you will. You don't need to be disrespectful - or do I need to explain that to you?

It's only too complicated if, by some twist of fate, you find yourself unable to pull your head out of the Church's ass.

Maybe the Elites worship the Hydrogen bomb...
Well I suppose you could have made it more clear. I should have know instead of talking about "our god," you were talking about your God.
In North America, the prevailing god is the God of the bible. If you were talking about Ra or other sun gods, you could have at least insinuated that. But you left it completely open for interpretation.
Oh and by the way, your attitude towards the other opinions in this thread, which are just as valid as yours, is mightily dogmatic of you. You should at least try to practice what you preach my friend.

I don't believe in any gods. I believe in a law, a principle, which can be compared to a god (thus the confusion) but has not a single anthropomorphic quality.

Again, I'm not talking about the traditional sense of the god. The only reason I used that word was because it's the easiest way to impart the general idea I was trying to convey.
I don't take well to being attacked or talked down to, and I often respond in kind.
