Argomento: Re: So, depending on whether you believe in God or not, here are our options... we can worship a God who created us in His image, or we can be the gods who create tools in our image.
JungleBurger: I say a lot of stuff that's been said before. I'm starting to wonder if there is anything that has never been said.
You strike me as someone who was maybe raised in a particular denomination, but doesn't quite buy into it. You refered to God as him or her. If I refered to you as either being a him or a her, would you be able to tell me if it was one or the other? The reason I ask is because someone who doesn't believe in His existence will assume any discussion of him is like doing thought experiments. Like, "hhhhmmm I wonder how many angels can dance on the head of a pin?"
I'm not really picking on you, just trying to understand where you are coming from. There are so called Christian priests and theologins who don't know if there really is a God or not, and it's never occured to them to open that door I mentioned before. Everyone acts on faith, every day. It just takes more faith to peek around some corners than it does to, say, believe gravity will always achor you to the earth and not take a day off from doing that.
A better example is explorers who go places no one has been to before. It's easier to believe what you see every day than to believe in the existence of someplace you (personally) have never gone to.
