Theists & Atheists Com In Here And Know Your Belief Scale by SenatePresdo(m): 8:34am On Jul 07, 2016 |
Examine your view/belief very well, before you choose. 1. Strong Theist: I do not question the existence of God, I KNOW he exists. 2. De-facto Theist: I cannot know for certain but I strongly believe in God and I live my life on the assumption that he is there. 3. Weak Theist: I am very uncertain, but I am inclined to believe in God. 4. Pure Agnostic: God’s existence and non- existence are exactly equiprobable (equally likely to occur; having equal probability) 5. Weak Atheist: I do not know whether God exists but I’m inclined to be skeptical. 6. De-facto Atheist: I cannot know for certain but I think God is very improbable and I live my life under the assumption that he is not there. 7. Strong Atheist: I am 100% sure that there is no God. As for me, I fall in Number(1). My reasons are; (1). Biblically, I believe in God because of the event that happened between 'Elijah and the prophets of baal. And also John 3:16; for God so love the world that he gave his only begotten son....... That was very kind of him (God) (2). Personally, I believe in God and that he exists because I have experienced his presence and manifestation. (3) Mathematically, The Force/Energy that is doing all the miracles I experience, especially when the name of jesus/God is being used, is special. Or; [calling upon the name of God] + [healing the sick/handicapped] - [scientific explanation] = Special force/energy hence; let that special force/energy be God. That is how I mathematically believe in God. Now, you can tell us where you fall in and why you fall in there. Some people who may not be well informed both theist/atheist might as well learn one or few things from your own reason(s). . 4 Likes |

jayriginal: Funny you. I didn't claim to be the original writer because I know many have read the Delusion of God, by Richard D. |
Re: Theists & Atheists Com In Here And Know Your Belief Scale by jayriginal: 8:05am On Jul 08, 2016 |
SenatePresdo: Then cite your source dammit! Failure to do so is known as plagiarism. |

Hello. @Op If people are to answer your question, it would be of some help to first define what you mean by god. It is very unclear what you mean and from your comments it seems you speak about god as presented by the bible. Further, I find the answers too simplistic. For instance Yahweh may exist but no be the ultimate god, or just be a deity among others, even be the union of the thought-forms/egregore of some. Well, the devil is in the details. greetings. |

LoJ: God; should be the first source of everything, even if you personally doesn't believe it is yahweh. |
Re: Theists & Atheists Com In Here And Know Your Belief Scale by Nobody: 7:49am On Jul 09, 2016 |
SenatePresdo:If that's what you meant, then most atheist also think there is a first source to everything. Greetings. |
Re: Theists & Atheists Com In Here And Know Your Belief Scale by SenatePresdo(m): 8:22am On Jul 09, 2016 |
LoJ: As in, Ad infinitum? Surely there must be a first source. Does it sound rational to you that nothing is the first source to everything? If you accepts that it goes backward till infinity, then God is INFINITY. |

SenatePresdo:Hello SenatePresdo, I don't know what you think my convictions are, but it looks erroneous. I just pointed out why I could not answer your question, (namely due to the way it was structured) while avoiding to answer. The questions determines the answer,s and in this case, I could not say much. But no offense, you are free to have your opinions about me, and everything else. Greetings. |
Re: Theists & Atheists Com In Here And Know Your Belief Scale by SenatePresdo(m): 1:05pm On Jul 09, 2016 |
LoJ: I see. But on most occasions, the term 'God' is viewed by many as the first source, whilst god(s) are viewed as deities. So you should've known that we are talking about the first source which is 'God'. You are welcome. |
