How does God work?

[blup]

W C Fields was a famous atheist whose wife caught him reading the bible. Shocked, she asked what he was doing. He replied “Looking for loopholes dear, looking for loopholes”

I get that people have no belief because they see no logic or rationality in a higher being but what is their god? Money, power? and what is the basis of their morality if not Judeo- Christian principles?

You're presuming morality didn't exist until Christianity.

No one has proof that God exists.

No one has proof that God doesn't exist.

I really don't think that DIYNot can handle the God question.

Disagree, I think we've nailed it. Do you have proof otherwise?

 

[denso13]

No need, no value.

You may think that. I was only stating a fact to someone who seemed to think otherwise.

If there is a god, simply explain...

Why there are so many different variations of belief that can't get on with each other, although the major overriding point of religion is to live correctly and help 1 another.

Why criminals get away with all sorts and innocent children are born with major life issues.

Why is so much money involved.

I can go on, but they will do for now.

Do humans actually need a God to worship, to live a moral and worthwhile life - I would argue not.

Then why do you still capitalise Dog?

Because, it's the name of a person, even though that person is just a figment.

 

[Deleted member 174758]

But if you don't believe...

Do humans need emotions? You could argue until you are blue in the face, but unless you understand human nature you will NEVER get it. As I said, the ability to reach out to ethereal entities is within all humans. And we all do it whether you like it or not, boyo.

Can you prove that?

Can you prove it does exist?

Thought not!

Of course god botherers/brexiteers have abdicated their thinking process to a cult/belief because they are too stupid to think for themselves!

Something you demonstrate so well

 

[denso13]

Already answered, you need to concentrate.

Of course god botherers/brexiteers

You're barking up the wrong tree there. Again.

Many certainly, but not all. Many would strongly resist it

Someone seems to have mixed up the first and third letter yet again...

Your stupidity knows no bounds...

PS. Dogs tend to 'bound'...

Could you enlighten us on the 'moves' that the imaginary friend(s) executes?

How can imaginary friends execute any moves?
