Ocean Book posted:I don't know if it gets mentioned anywhere in this thread, but there is a line of thought that says 'Yahweh' is actually a petty spirit that horned in on a greater beings creation so it could prop itself up as King poo poo. That's why Yahweh in the old testament is so jealous, arbitrary, and spiteful. This school of thought generally refers to the spirit as the 'Demiurge'. just lol if you think you could possibly perceive the nature of god through the limitations of human cognition

the problem of evil is dumb because whos to say that a monotheistic god, if existent, really is omniscent, omnipresent, and omnibenevolent? It's just something people said in early antiquity. It's exactly what small children believe of their parents and the small children aren't actually correct. basically this vvvvv rap music posted:just lol if you think you could possibly perceive the nature of god through the limitations of human cognition Separately, in response to this ^^^^ I dont believe in the demiurge thing, but if Judaism and its children are literally true (and its holy texts are literally true and accurately report the nature of god) the demiurge theory as i described it is the most coherent explanation in my view.

Pick, I am an atheist, but I respect your Catholicism as the true Christianity and consider Protestants a different (worse) thing, just like Mormons. Also you have a cool pope right now so I can't hate on Catholics. Who What Now posted:Why would you avoid nihilism? Nihilism rules. Nihilism is dumb and lazy (and wrong) metaethics, although Nihilists are nowhere near as annoying as Deontologists, who I consider to be worse than Scientologists
