    Exclamation Re: The Definition and Existence of God

    After all the time I talked to TCV in the EB Tavern, I had learned not to touch the topic of religion. Backroomers would do well to learn the same. It is the very definitive of pointless to debate with TCV on religion. No offense or personal attack here, just an observation. We all have things we are not good at debating about, and religion is TCV's. No matter what you say, TCV will always disagree with you on religion, and he will never admit to sharing anything with your arguments. TCV is not looking for a debate, but simply to refute every point thrown at him, no matter the validity of that point.

    That is not my impression at all. I have found Philipvs to be a good prize-fighter who gave me a run for my money every time. I enjoy this sort of thing and so does he.

    It's just that once in a while I have to draw a line in the sand.

    One can not, I repeat can not, profess in one thread to know nothing about God's substance, yet in another thread discuss Gods triple substance and even pretend to know where he sits, i.e. on God's right hand side.

    Or was that Christ's left hand side? And where's the Holy Ghost in all this - is it doing the driving? For crying out loud. And to think that millions believe this blatant nonsense.

    Enough for today. I need a drink.

    God is a name given to the unexplainable, both inward and outward.

    "God" represents nothing more than our conscience and power of will. That there is an omniscient creature watching/controlling all our moves is incorrect.

    All above statements are my opinion and might very well not be the truth. After all, there is no such thing as "The" truth. Truth is a relative concept which differs between people.

    But what is God in the true sense of the word for people? What defines it?

    IMO, God is a State of Mind. An opinion, a preference, an option. A moral code.
    BLARGH!

    Whoah, whoa! I never said PVC was lacking. No, he and Sarmatian are my role-models and idols here. No, I was speaking of TCV. I never said anything bad about Phillipvs. Read my post more carefully one more time .

    Or, it may be that I misunderstood you, as for some reason, your post was not very clear to me.
