81. WHAT IS THE PROOF THAT GOD EXISTS? OR JUSTIFYING THE EXISTENCE OF GOD

WHAT IS THE PROOF THAT GOD EXISTS OR JUSTIFYING THE EXISTENCE OF GOD

As noted, this position does not negate the existence of GOD, and in any case does not clash head-on with theism. Theism makes an ontological claim: there is a GOD. This kind of atheism makes an epistemological claim: there is no proof of the existence of GOD. There is no contradiction between the two claims.

One can believe that GOD exists and at the same time agree that there is no way to prove it. There are many ideas or closely held beliefs that cannot be proved, and yet they may exist, e.g., extraterrestrial beings. Nor is it possible to prove whether a redheaded man named Fred lived in England 4,000 years ago, and yet it is quite possible that such a man existed. The question is, what to do with a lack of evidence to prove the existence or not of any belief? Does a rational person justify a decisive apostasy in the existence of the object sought, or is the rational choice to remain in doubt about any considered belief?

This is already a question of an “a priori” premise, how plausible the existence of the same object seems to be. If that object seems a priori to be manifestly unreasonable, then the lack of evidence for its existence justifies the conclusion that it probably does not exist.

But if the premise is that the existence of the same object is a reasonable idea, then this lack of evidence should not cause one to deny its existence, or at least the possibility of its existence.

So it is with aliens, Fred the redhead, and understandably it is also so with the idea of the existence of GOD. There will be more discussion on this line of reasoning in the next section on this topic.

"The Logical Proof Of GOD" book by HOLY LAND MAN

YOUR SOUL NEEDS SPIRITUALITY BUT YOU ONLY TRUST REALITY & FACTS

In the spiritual world reside the forces that operate our lives in daily reality. Get to know them, because your happiness depends on them.

While we are selfish creatures with survival mechanisms and animal instincts to achieve more than we need, we’re also wired (DNA & neurotheology) for spirituality and to live for the greater good, for the higher self. For that reason, we are wired to protect our spouse, our family, our country, and be connected to a higher spirituality we call GOD (whatever it is).

We seek to connect to the highest authority which is above human sensual perception. We seek a GOD to be our ultimate guide. Not the GOD that the religions created for us with endless restrictions and imaginary hell and heaven, but the true real GOD.

This book sums up thousands of years and debates to one practical conclusion: is it good for humans to have and believe in (a) GOD or not.

While emerging in the debate, keep an open mind and ignore any religious misconception of who GOD really is. You are here because you care to know if there is a higher authority and if your life will be more fulfilled with GOD in it. You want to know if spirituality is good for you.

WHEN DO YOU FEEL SPIRITUALITY?

The spirit is invisible, but it is revealed in every phenomenon in life that means oneness. It is revealed the moment you look into a person’s eyes and discover that you both feel the same. Spirituality is revealed as soon as you do something that makes others a caravan of joy. It is revealed the moment someone refers to you and you refer to him, and you are both aware of each other’s existence. As a Roman poet so beautifully put it: “Outside all the notions of good and evil there is a field. Will you meet me there?”

Socrates was said to have not come from Athens, but from the world. You and I are two aspects of one reality, united and all-embracing. In unity no differences are eliminated. For things to unite, they do not have to lose their individual identities.  In unity only the separation between them is abolished, which is the difference in value and importance. Then it turns out that everything is one thing.
