Humanity is not in a fallen and sinful state. We are not at risk of damnation. Reincarnation is more likely to be true than the Judeo-Christian concept of the afterlife.>inb4 you are IndianI denounce Vishnu and besides, the Druids and Norse believed in reincarnation. So too did the Ancient Greeks and Romans.
>>18751594A man who is not jealous of his wife does not love his wife. If you can see your wife flirting with your neighbor and it doesn't bother you then you don't love that woman.
>>18751614You are missing the points. Gods must be perfect and beyond human emotion since they are perfect beings, thus for a god experience anger or jealously is illogical.
>>18751594I don't believe in it, but I think reincarnation appeals to many people on an intuitive level. So many processes within nature are cyclical it almost seems to make sense that conciousness would be as well.
You will burn in hell forever
>>18751594>Reincarnation
>>18752022Don't expect him to get it. People like this are far beyond critical thinking
>>18752022God doesn't have human emotions, God experienced those emotions before mankind even existed. Those are godly emotions that God has allowed mankind to experience.Loving someone so much that you are zealous for them is the sign of a perfect being who loves beyond measure.It is your own flawed mind that sees anger as a lowly emotion, so you think a God must not be allowed to experience them.It is your inflated ego and pride that kames you believe you are in a position to dictate what God should and shouldn't be. You think you understand how to be God better than God himself.>Hur hur in my own mind God is not allowed to be angry at me no matter what I do and must accept me and love the way I decide to be me no matter what so any God who gets angry at me must not be a real God.It's a rather childish understanding.
>>18752022>>18752158>God has to be what I define God asLol
>>18753459Theists would never
>>18751614Jeleausy is the feeling that arises when one wants something they cannot get. Obviously impossible for a perfect being.
>>18751594Jealousy in this case refers to God not wanting to lose what is His by right. It is not to be confused with envy, which involves coveting what others have. It is good that God is jealous for us just as it is good that the shepherd is jealous for His sheep. Of course the Bible itself affirms that God created us in His own image and called creation very good, so the idea that the Torah is opposed to what Plato is saying here is absurd.
>>18753459If god is logic itself, then he should not contradict himself. A truly perfect being must be beyond the need for human behaviors and emotion. The God of the bible is far too anthropomorphic to be treated as factual or historical.
>>18753477In all it's divinity choose to be human like or do anything
>>18753466That is envy you fool, jealousy is when you're afraid of losing something or someone you love. Do you dumb people really think God is saying "I am an Envious God"? Lmao!Sign of low IQ is being unable to tell the difference between jealousy and envy.
>>18753477God created the world and all that is in it, it is not a separate entity unrelated to him, the whole world came from him. Humans were invented by him in his imagination based on his knowledge and understanding and created in his image. We get our behavior from him, not the other way around.You want God to be an emotionless robot? Is that what to think perfection is? A numb being who feels nothing and does not care about anything below him?One of the biggest virtues of God is that he loves the small and lonely and insignificant and despised and unloved above those who believe to be great and important. His heart is greater than yours by an eternal margin, you despise the lowly but he cares for them.He created the peacock and also the cockroach.
>>18753486>Do you dumb people really think God is saying "I am an Envious God"? Lmao!He might as well be if he gets offended by people not worshipping him>>18753495>You want God to be an emotionless robot? Is that what to think perfection is? A numb being who feels nothing and does not care about anything below him?It's illogical for the omnipotent source of everything to micromanage everything and care about the affairs of beings who might as well be ants in the cosmic scale.
>>18753688He created happiness, love, sex, pleasure, food, joy, beauty, strength, intelligence, eyes, tongues, ears, noses, hearts, blood, oxigen, everything you love and need to survive, he made you higher than animals and just a bit lower than angels, the least you can do is worship him. You worship the work of his hands, you adore all the pleasures he allowed you to have, but you hate him because he didn't give you even more.
>>18753688>who might as well be ants in the cosmic scale.Just because you are unconcerned with those beneath you doesn't mean God is as uncaring as you. This world is not as insignificant as science made you think it was. Mankind was made in the image of the God of all existence. God loves his creation.He cares about what we do because his heart is pure and loves beyond measure.
>>18753708Stockholm syndrome. By your logic he also gave you pain and suffering and everything bad in the world
>>18753742OK then, if he decides to take away all your joy and your ability to have an orgasm and your ability to see and walk and removes all the food around you and withholds the water from falling in your land, you cannot complain because you despised him and never appreciated when he gave you all those things.What can you say against him? You would have to acknowledge that he gave you all those priceless treasures for free that you did not deserve because you have no way of getting any of those things back by your own effort and power, in order to complain that he took them away from you.
