The universe couldn't have just created itself right?And in theory something had to create it right?But creating something before the start of the universe must be extremely difficult, it would have had to be some type of power that can transcend time AND matter.Even then, lets say the universe was first, something must have created the first element right? You must be pretty powerful to create an element from nothingnesst. Agnostic but might be awakening im not sure
Yes if something happens then SOMEONE must have done it. Just like every evil in the world must have been puppeteered by Jews

>Which came first the chicken or the egg?
>>542261212If it's true that matter and energy can't be created or destroyed, then the universe is simply eternal and needs no creator. Maybe there is a server admin but who knows.
>>542261254too*
>>542261212there is no creation or destruction. nobody created or destroyed any matter or energy. everything always was.>But creating something before the start of the universe must be extremely difficult, it would have had to be some type of power that can transcend time AND matter.time is a measure of change. you cannot have change without time, makes no sense. cause/effect implies time. time started with the big bang. there was no time before it. therefore no change. no cause. everything just is. always was really.since time started with the big bang, then saying everything always was makes perfect sense. since always starts with time. which started with the big bang.

>>542261254I have been lurking for years thats why im asking this question nowT. Oldfag from 2014
Read Plato and Aristotle, you absolute brainlet. It's called the unmoved mover/prime mover/One/Absolute. Then read Parmenides and realize that nothing does not exist and that in all likelihood we exist within an infinite/eternal continuum that has never not been, never came into existence, and will never cease to exist. It simply always is.
>>542261286Thats called Steady State Theory and no one believes it. Read a book
>>542261212>The universe couldn't have just created itself right?The universe can't create itself but God can magically create himself. The universe can't come out of nothing and needs God to create it, but not God. This is where the theist pretends not to understand.
>>542261437OP is agnostic

>>542261436fuck does it matter if you believe it or not lmao

>>542261486Yes it is, idiot.>>542261489No one believes it and it's ridiculed
>>542261212>The universe couldn't have just created itself right?Why not?

>>542261519No it's not tardfag.
CausalityMaxxermaybe it don't work that way...One thing "causing" another lol that's an oversimplification to say the least. There is never a single cause, there may be a proximate cause (immediately proceeding the effect) but this is different. as per usual, human folly attributable to ignorance

>>542261437>The universe can't create itself but God can magically create himselfWell the thing is, in order to create the universe you have to be able to ascend time since the universe only goes forward. So if you can ascend time or somehow not account it into the equation, you should be able to create yourself, since there was no time from before when you didn't exist
>>542261212The universe doesn't need a creation point. It doesn't need to have an initial mover, a birth, it could always just been in motion. And God doesn't need to be found at such non existent beginning, God is everywhere, a temporal, and eternal.
>>542261212>The universe couldn't have just created itself right?IT WAS AN ACCIDENT
>>542261212What created the creator?
>>542261519>No one believes it and it's ridiculeddoesn't matter what you or anyone believes. universe just is, in a way. regardless of what you think about it.if every single human on this planet thinks and votes something is real, universe don't give a shit about it, it literally discards your opinion. the only power you have is to get it right, or get it wrong. if you get it right sometimes you can do useful shit with it.

>>542261212if there was ever truly nothing, there would be nothing to begin, nothing to begin in, and nothing to begin from. nothing cannot be
>>542261999>God couldn't just have created itself, right?to create something means it didn't exist before, so a thing cannot create itself since it doesn't exist.also creation is a nonsensical idea. it doesn't exist. it's human mind brainrot.humans think if they put one shit on top of another shit they created something. that is not creation. that is arranging already existing stuff.creation means making matter/energy out of literal nothing. anything else is not creation, it's arrangement of existing stuff.creation is a fantasy, a theory at most, never been witnessed. it's not something that even makes the sense you think it does, it's human brainrot.

>>542262312not sure why anyone is stresses about creation of the universe. or why anyone thinks it was "created'. makes no sense. it's a linguistic issue and scientists are to blame for it.there is no reason to need the universe to be "created". most people just cannot understand this.they think if they shit in the toilet they "created" the shit ergo the universe must have been "created" just like they created the shit in their toilet.this is fundamental logic issue and almost nobody seems to understand it. the universe doesn't need an explanation of existing. because there's nothing else similar to it. nobody created shit ergo something must have created everything. that's not how it works, it's just linguistic and logical issue that is very hard to explain to people. their brains default to asking something which is nonsensical.

>>542261212Anon. Assume an ontological premise. The things that plainly are can witness to what is not immediately made known. You and I have a limited epistemic scope, and Kant liked to think that the limit of being unable to totally understand reality, because you are processing it from within it, is a flaw. It’s literally supposed to be like that if you are not God, And none of us are. The entire point of the law in the Bible was to show you that in a moral context. Evil is a misorientation expressing itself against an absolute. There is nothing ontologically evil. The issue is man assumes expression in this context is moral ontology. It’s a category error, we’re limited by our epistemic scope, but it doesn’t mean that God doesn’t exist, agnosticism likes to pretend like because the limit to derivative ontology is there, there is no absolute, that does not follow, is paradoxical and almost philosophically childish and incredibly naive. Since when can you have an intelligible universe that exceeds the scope of your understanding but never the less be totally comprehensible to everything currently within it? You don’t need to know everything to know God.

Were they created by your mind or are they an arrangement of matter causing your neurons to produce a certain thought pattern?I do agree that we are limited in our understanding of things by seeing everything through what makes sense to us. Just see how most of these people will consider logic to be this absolute truth that guides everything instead of taking a step back and understand it's the process of our minds that forms the baseline of our cognition but there's no reason why everything in the universe has to conform to human logic.

This would imply either an infinite multiverse (all paths) or something outside of space time was able to observe the big bang into existence. Don't jump to infinite multiverse yet my angsty atheist frens. One of the infinite universes would necessarily contain a being that transcends space time and has therefore observed the big bang (they see all time as a flat disc) and is therefore paradoxically the creator.

Until that moment comes I dont' see the problem with saying the idea was created. I guess we're talking about 'free will'.

For example, minute structural and genetic differences result in distinct harmonics in an individual - producing different personalities in human beings. Taking psychedelic drugs can produce profound changes to the frequency filter, demuxing nearly all spectral consciousness fields simultaneously. Regardless, long story short - we are all essentially the same person, just experiencing that person through a different lens. When you die, your particular combination of universal consciousness frequencies dissipates, but the universal consciousness persists - eternal. You are everyone and everything.

>>542264153Worshipping the material itself isn't enough to claim it's devine. That's just macro/micro animism, which is a projection. There would still have to be some kind of actor, which can't be explain by going "wow gravity"
>>542264192I have already died. My Will remains Free.
The problem is that you are assuming the universe was created, as in everything needs to be created. I fail to see why would that need to be the case. Hypothetically he universe could have existed forever, hence never created.
There's only two possibilities. Either an uncreated deity created time from outside it, or the present is eternal and potentially (not actually) infinite. These are literally the only two options. Pick your poison.
>>542264225I created myself. My convictions are my own.
>>542264230>some nonsense answerplease I beg you anon, explain how free your will is, completely uninfluenced by nothing, and how that is not the actual definition of insanity
>>542264251Well it is inexplicable, the trouble is figuring out if somebody shook the snow globe or not
>>542264258surely you haven't read anything written by anyone else, did you? never ... heard anything else anyone said to you? never...seen anything that would influence your "convictions", did you?
>>542262837denying that the universe arose from absolute nothing does not imply time must extend infinitely backward
>>542264273My Will is Free. I think what I want. Don't you? Where are you posting from?
>>542264295It's possible it reaches a maximum distance and then collapses back in on itself in cycles
>>542264291I read lots of things, and then I contemplate what I read, freely. Are you a mindless robot?
>>542263898>a random idea that makes senseI don't believe anything is 'random' in the sense that it's commonly used. If everything is material then it stands to reason that if you had infinite knowledge nothing would be 'random'. 'Random' just means 'unknown'. If we were both on the same room right now and I flipped a coin and we decide to bet on heads or tails, the reason we consider it 'random' is because there's no way we could calculate the result. But if I had infinite knowledge I could calculate it. So that's why I have a problem with the word 'random' in general.The reason this is relevant and not a nitpick is because you are implying that there are arrangements of matter that are randomly causing ideas to emerge but I think these ideas are created by you.I don't really have a defense for it I just think it's harmful to us to believe otherwise. I like to think I'm the creator of my ideas.
>>542261212If the Holy Spirit enters you then the existence of God becomes undeniable.
>>542264284I would rather figure out things for what I have thesis for. God has none.
>>542263762>Inductive and deductive reasoningPlease do tell why is causality an universal rule, especially on the quantum level and for your god
>>542264303>My Will is Free.awful lot of ™s in your replies that's for sure>I think what I wantno you don't, you have been programmed like a good little drone. you have less freedom of choices than people who don't believe in your ™ bullshitalso do notice my use of "freedom of choice", it's not by mistake.see, what we really have is freedom of choice, which can be constricted or expanded. the people selling ™ are looking to restrict this freedom of choice, and determine you choose what they want you to choose. it's quite the opposite really, one of the biggest scams.if you start thinking in terms of freedom of choice, you start to notice how they are taking those choices from you, leaving you with just a few convenient ones to choose from, using of-course, your Free Will ™. or else. kek
>>542264228But you must understand that, due to the prime mover(primum movens) argument, there must be a condition of the being that was prior to the existence of matter, and in that condition there would be no time either. Thus you needn’t, as you put it, “worship matter” because matter is not the uncreated source of all being. Matter is rather a created thing.The question I’d like you to answer for a change is how do you answer the problem of infinite regression in your own ontological worldview/understanding?
>>542264427My Will is Free. You sound like a mindless robot and I think you're covering up an Israeli flag.
>>542264295I thought you were implying the opposite
>>542264379of-course there are random events, stochastic more exactly. just study some quantum physics. it's literal science.if that's too abstract for you, then study radioactive decay, another stochastic process.if you want to know more about the human brain, know that it samples brownian noise. I read some studies a few years back that there's actually a strong corelation between IQ and how much brownian noise is sampled. also this stochastic noise is crucial to how good AIs perform, obviously, since they're trying to do the same thing in a sense.so yeah, the higher this stochastic noise sampling the higher the IQ, and thus your ever sought after genius ideas if you will.one just has to start actually learniing instead of consuming slop, and one can start to understand what is going on.

>>542264422I have to sleep with my wife now but make a thread tomorrow at a similar time and we’ll pick up where we left off
>>542261212this poem from rigveda is also about this question from 3000yrs agoi feel like universe is always existing infinite and there are multiuniverse which bang , expand or die a cold deaththis question on nothingness is what lead us to the creation of 0 number in india and search of it has been the basic fundamental of Question of Dharma based religions!
>>542264476you behave like a drone anon. at no point in our interactions did you leave any impression you are willing to change your ideas in face of new information.that is legit drone behavior, completely and utterly determined. your message is clear, there is nothing that could change your mind.which says it all isn't it? you're a literal joke
>>542263885I just gotta say, I used to be an edgelord like this and I had a profound experience that made me change my waysAbrahamic religions sure do have a way of just hooking people
>>542262900A song isn't an arrangement of particles it is entirely conceptual. Note a song isnt the same thing as a recording of a song.
>>542264448Purely theoretically that must be the 5th dimension. Then your "god" is a grain in the 5th dimension or something
>>542261212Look up the univocity of Being. Being itself must proceed the existence of either God or Nature, because both must be existent in exactly the same way (there is no partial existence, it's all or nothing). It then comes down to whether there is a necessary existent
>>542264704>proceedprecede
>>542264634a song is your perception. that is what we call a song. certain sounds we hear in certain order. sound is merely air molecules bumping in eachother, bumping in your eardrum, triggering other particles to move around reaching and triggering your neurons
>>542261212The beginning is created in the end.
>>542264742cyclical universe could also be possible, resets everything once in a while.
>>542264790It's an open loop, consciousness evolves to the point it can create the circumstances for It's own birth and evolution. It exists because it's a possibility for it to exist.
>>542261212Nope not necessarily. The entire universe can be one system of chaos which through pure chance over time entered into a state which we would consider coherent.
>>542264511There are objections to the example you are giving about radioctive decay and quantum physics. I'm not going to pretend to be familiar with it since I just looked it up but it's called the De Broglie-Bohm theory.Anyways the idea that our understanding of quantum physics is extensive enough to assert that randomness is a thing... doesn't have enough merit to it. The first thing they will tel you in a quantum physics class is that you will never understand it. Also it seems ludicrous to claim that human beings are somehow cognitively capable of figuring out the answers to all material things. 'Randomness' is all that is unknown or unknowable, from this point of view.I am not familiar with our understanding of brown noise and IQ but I would of course accept the idea that some people have a certain arrangement of neural pathways and connections that makes their minds more conducive to come up with ground-breaking ideas in specific fields of their mastery. At this point it feels a bit semantic to argue if these ideas are 'created' or not, and does it really matter? Until we can predict future human actions with satisfying accuracy I will be a proponent of free will and against randomness. I don't use 'free will' in the spiritual manner religious people do but rather it just means to say our will is free from knowledge because our will is unknowable to us. The only way I'm changing this position is by being proven wrong through demonstrable precise predictions of future behavior.
>>542261212>So in theory there should be a god right?Sure. But I doubt it's a bearded kike in the sky.Most likely some cosmic horror beyond our comprehension, which (thankfully) doesn't give any number of shits about us.
>>542265251The poster literally just used arrangement and creation interchangeably. Do you think someone sitting down and drawing a picture doesn’t know, if he stops to think about it, that wverything he is using to make the drawing including his memory of anatomy and so on isn’t a culmination of an arrangement of an arrangement and so on? It doesn’t really matter what term you use. It’s just semantic arguments at the end of the day.
>>542264656yeah multiverse theory is pretty gay, all universes started as 1 dimensional points and transitioned to the higher dimension. The "5th dimension" isn't actually a thing, it's the entropy of the 1 dimensional explosion
>>542261275The cell.It’s always smaller building blocks that lead to bigger things in this universe.
>>542265531Hmm... But the starting point of this argument is the idea that nothing is ever 'created' but rather 'arranged'. Which is a funny idea that I might employ myself in the future. When looking at outside things like arranging matter into a planet or a tree it makes sense but when it comes to giving rise to ideas it feels weird. I don't really have a good argument against it other than claiming that knowing our own will in full is impossible because we are not able to look inwards like that. So the same way we say something is 'random' we might as well say some things are 'created'. It's really all based on lack of knowledge imo. I'm sure all of these objections can be articulated in a much cleaner way so I apologize for what I feel is a muddy argument I'm making here.
>>542261275The egg, by either millions of years or a a day or so. Depending on who you ask.
>>542261212Soon we'll argue whether the Great Pyramids also had creators or whether they happened by a fluke of the universe. Deism is the bare minimum one should believe. The REAL question is what God wants from us.
>>542266893We know the Pyramids were built because they look so much different to the land around them. But this doesn't apply to existence itself because there's nothing else to compare to. If everything is designed, then 'designed' stops being a worthwhile descriptor. At that point you're basically saying 'Existence exists.'
>>542261212>i dont understand X so it was magic
>>542267285Who says "everything" is designed. Plenty of material is floating around with no apparent use. Besides the absence of alternatives doesn't nullify the notion of intention unless "it couldn't be any other way" which is on you to prove.rare bad opinion from a Serb flag
