falsie number one. where is it said that general consciousness is god.
i think there for i am. alive.
>>
"God" has these traditional attributes that consciousness itself doesn't have.
This is an extremely weak argument and an extremely weak thread.

But at least it isn't one of those frog threads.
Don't answer frog threads. They're likely glowies.

God = the mug of hot cocoa sitting on my desk
Is there a mug of hot cocoa sitting on my desk?
*Slurrrrrp*
Nope. The mug is empty and the hot cocoa is in my tummy, so God has been broken down into his constituents and ceased to exist. In fact this was only a thought experiment, and there never was a mug of hot cocoa sitting on my desk, so God has never existed.

Doesn't work on those who (wrongly) believe consciousness emerges from some complex physical process.

Gnosis brings with it a metaphysical reorientation in which awareness is recognized as the most basic thing there is: pure unconditioned being.

Also doesn't work on those who don't think consciousness maps very well onto the concept of God.

What is (a) God? I've seen this word used very interchangeably and very often, what does it mean?

Is it a name? Is it a title? Is it a type of entity or being? Is it a position of status? Is it a job role or duty? Is it a spirit of a thing? Is it a threshold of ability? Is it the ideal top imagined most high possible of all things? Is it just some dude that made everything, is it everything that exists and doesn't exist but with a personality? Is it something else? Is it some sort of alien race? Is it some kind of pattern?

What do you mean when you say God, the way it has been used in my life it seems very ambiguous. I've heard things all the way from basically God is just a government that you can't disobey to God is just the essense of a thing all the way to God is the spirit that makes everything, to God is just consciousness, to God is just a family of Dudes that are like humans but they have magic powers and live in the sky to God is language understanding and logos to God is just a status position that is the highest that exists etc. etc.

It's all rather ambigious... would you care to clarify what you mean and what the importance of ''proving it exists'' is? If something is or isn't doesn't it not matter if something else validates that it is when it is? I know I am... as far as I can tell you've never actually known me or yourself. But I could be wrong, so how could I validate but is it really important to know I exist? I know, that seems ok enough. It would be nice if more knew or if my own kind were a plural and I could be with them, but I'm not sure that's how it works.

Respond if you are capable I suppose.

If OP is a faggot, then God does not exist.
OP is a faggot.
Therefore, God does not exist.

God must be conscious before it can do anything else. God is not some automaton.

but does it need to be intelligent? or can it be as a baby.
