9 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. 14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. macof: 1 Like |

PastorAIO: And how does this dispute my claim that in order to understand something, its location is of huge importance? |

baye2023: So is God in feces and urine? |
Re: Where Is God? by plaetton: 9:42pm On Nov 29, 2014 |
Mrval20:Ha ha. So believing in god is an insurance policy against judgement day? Big laugh. But what exactly is being judged on judgement day, quality and contribution to life while on Earth, or the quality of one's superstitious belief while on Earth? You christians make it seem that judgement day is where god supposedly judges people for what they believed or did not believe. That would make god as silly as the people that believe in him, even he really exists. 2 Likes |

baye2023: Oh but we not talking about ownership here but presence If God is not present in feces, then he is not present everywhere and in everything, hence ur god is not omnipresent |

Mrval20: That he that lives in heaven(another planet) is also part of God,because you are also a God who lives on another heaven called planet Earth. |

macof: macof: Things are shifting. 'Understanding something' is a lot broader than 'understanding the identity of a thing'. In order to understand something in the broadest sense I would dispute that its location was that big a deal. You might understand women very well without needing to locate them anywhere. I was addressing the matter of identity. For that I think location is important. a red ball in london will be identified as a different object from a red ball in Beijing. But A red ball on my office table in ikeja, if I come back an hour later and find a red ball in the same place I am very likely to believe it is the same red ball. Only one and the same thing can share a precise location with itself. But the issue is that if God cannot be precisely located does that call into question his existence? |

PastorAIO: Here's ur emotional attachments to Christian dogmas playing out You might as well tell a kid not to ask the whereabouts of his father, whom he has never seen, and yet believe his father is fair, tall, kind and handsome because his neighbor, who also hasn't seen his father says so |
Re: Where Is God? by PastorAIO: 12:11pm On Nov 30, 2014 |
macof: Duuuuuudddeee!!!! I don't believe that I was emotional in the slightest. In fact as I wrote it last night I was feeling quite tired and made myself respond because I believed that if I didn't respond there and then I might not come back to the thread again. I made very objective arguments based on the philosophy of identity. I tried not to bring God into my argument but simply spoke on the relationship between identity and location. Your example of a kid and a father is excellent. It demonstrates exactly where you're missing the point. No one in their right senses with dispute that the kid has a father. only someone that believes in immaculate conception with entertain the notion that his father doesn't exist. We cannot locate the father. That does not mean that the father doesn't exist. (you get my drift). Location and ontological status are not so connected as you seem to believe. We might believe various characteristics of the father, or we might disbelieve the neighbours accounts of father, BUT that has no bearing on the ontological status of the father. That has no bearing on whether he exists or not. We might even hear contradictory accounts of the father but they do not affect the ontological status of the father. |

Re: Where Is God? by davien(m): 1:16pm On Nov 30, 2014 |
PastorAIO:It is...but then again how can one say anything certain about "god" when it represents many paradoxical statements? |
Re: Where Is God? by macof(m): 7:41pm On Nov 30, 2014 |
PastorAIO: and who says anything about denying God or disbelief in his existence? I might not believe ur God but for the sake of this thread I am indifferent And I ask the location of ur God whom u Christians claim to know so well, so well that u know his likes and dislikes, so well you talk to him in prayer everyday his location shouldn't be such a difficult thing to decipher |
Re: Where Is God? by PastorAIO: 4:28pm On Dec 06, 2014 |
macof: Okay, I must have misunderstood you. I thought you were implying that not knowing God's location suggests that God may not exist. So you are really saying that you don't think Christians know God as well as they presume because they don't know his location. I don't think many christians will disagree with you. Our knowledge of God is limited. That's a fact, and one that I'm comfortable with. |

whre is heaven? can you by mathematical reasoning prove that GOD is omnipresent? yes ithink i can but i'd love to read your thoughts. Mrval20: |
Re: Where Is God? by Mrval20(m): 10:55pm On Dec 06, 2014 |
gatiano:Mathematically? I don't need mathematical proof to believe He's omnipresent. Anywaay, I'm willing to be your student tonight. |
