Discussion Is God real?

Is God real? Just curious?

 

[evanescent_eva]

Hi, it's me, my name is Eva - short for Jehevah! I am the God you refer to. And yeah, all that fucked up shit that I made life suffer through was on purpose. But you'll never know whhhhhhhhhyyyyyyyyy

 

[WakingNightmare]

If he's real he really fucked me up big time

 

[davidtorez]

As real as the tooth fairy

 

[Withered]

The supposition of a god in any transcendent form is unfalsifiable, meaning that no one can prove to you the answer of "yes" nor "no." It is my opinion, however, that no such god (or gods, for that matter) exist.

If you are really interested in this question, I have some academic papers that I can share from the standard Cartesian ontology of self-assured intuition to more modern arguments of Gödel and the like.

Do you see god answering one person's prayers on this site?people here aren't even asking for anything much,just a normal life and the possibility of happiness.

 

[badkarma4618]

god? real? bro i have been on hold with the suicide hotline longer than i have felt his presence. so prolly not.

 

[Dejected 55]

No disrespect to any believers... but if God does exist, he's a dick who gets no love from me for all the fuckery I've endured.

 

[not-2-b-the-answer]

I go back and forth on this.
If there is, it could be like "The Force" from Star Wars
I have trouble with the religious freaks who try to enforce their beliefs on others.
Or if something does or doesn't happen it's "God's Will"

I don't know. I doubt anyone knows for sure, otherwise we'd surely all have heard.

 

[-nobodyknows-]

I hope so

 

[Gustav Hartmann]

God is as real as all human inventions.

 

[FuneralCry]

I don't believe in such rather I believe anything to do with religion to be completely fictional invented by humans, I just see existence as the most terrible tragic mistake and it's all so futile and dreadful to me, existing to me is just suffering all for the sake of it with no meaning or purpose behind it and as long as I exist I'll just hope to never suffer ever again. I just wish for an eternal sleep free from all cruelty and suffering, only non-existence can bring me the peace I search for and is all I'll hope for, I just wish to be unconscious for all eternity with this torturous, futile existence finally all gone and forgotten about.

 

[Hollowman]

No

 

[Endlichkeit]

yes

 

[dearlydeparted44]

It's frightening, liberating, and empowering to come to the understanding that "god" doesn't exist. And if one does, fuck him/her/it.

 

[HereWeGo!]

Yes, as a Christian I believe in God. I really wish he could give me some kind of sign and power to get rid of my suicidal thoughts. So my relationship with Him is very strained at the moment.

If the question was is the devil real everyone would say yes. Only doubt rises when God is in question. Think about it.

 

[HumanoidMonster]

I stopped believing in God years ago. That does not mean you can't feel the "help of God" via placebo effect. All it takes is convincing yourself that God is there to help you to feel (keyword: feel) like you're actually being helped. Truth is, at least in my humble opinion, there is no superior entity that's actually helping you, but rather you are helping yourself but labelling it as a third party helping you. As for the afterlife, there is no such thing. Our concept of "soul" is just a poetic way of describing the conscience that makes us who we are. As soon as the brain stops working definitely, it's over. Blank. Nothing.

Yes I thought about this many times. There are people denying God and think believers to be weird. But at the same they think the Devil and hell to be cool. I especially thinking about people in the heavy metal scene who are using all that that 666 and Devil stuff to be cool. And when musicians in the scene claim to be believers in God they are usually mocked. I don't get it. Without a loving God there is no evil Devil. And why would you hail the Devil and eternal pain instead for an eternity of a loving God in heaven? Really weird - actually kinda stupid.

 

[Rynalia]

Okay but like, shouldn't this go into the philosophy section?

Or at least add a line about how cruel and unjust life is to somewhat be relevant or something.

The devil isn't real either. At least not as depicted by religion.

In a sense, "God" is our conscience while the "Devil" is our propensity for evil. Religions try to manifest these components of human psychology as actual beings. Maybe that makes it easier for people to understand the concepts? In any case, as beings involved in the creation of or governance of our behaviors... neither exists. We here on the planet are it.

 

[Ch4in3dcr0w]

if he exists he for sure is not the perfect being most religions try to make him

I think it's a lot easier to believe that there is a force of evil making all the bad things happen in your life than a force of good that permits all those bad things to happen

Only you can answer that, I'm afraid.

 

[misanthropemurder]

no. anyone who believes otherwise is only using religion to calm their fears about the afterlife.
