It just occurs to me, & seems logical, that more than one infinite being would not really be infinite. If two beings existed & both claimed to be supreme, that wouldn't make sense, as supreme means there is none as high or higher.Quote:

WHO MADE GOD?? - No religious person can answer this one but it's a reasonable question.
WHY MAKE A GOD?
Why do gods enjoy making all the people trying to be good feel guilty, whilst ignoring the bad deeds of people who don't care?
:D It is easy to avoid difficult questions,but other than that I try to stay away from things I may not know about:)Quote:

He is unique from any of His creations. As the Creator, He has no characteristics similar to His creations, so He is not born nor has he begotten.He does not die.If He had to have a birth and a death, I would think that would make Him cease to be God.
And God does not have to be made.He always existed, it is just that humans and jinns are forgetting His existence.All other created beings acknowledge and bow down to His will.
And about ignoring the bad deeds of people, some people are left to their own vices until they die when everyone will be judged on their deeds good or bad and each will have their due.
That I believe is the truth, even if no one accepts or believes it.
:) Think about what?Quote:

What about all the other languages?:)
That's so much crap, as there is always a price to pay for whatever you do!! You may not pay the price now, but you will. You may not get the blessings now, BUT YOU WILL!!Quote:

Blessings will also be given now or later,and there's no avoiding that either:)
Who made God? - Ignorance, God is used to explain things we don't understand yet.
Why make God? - to make other people do your will. How else do you ask a man to give his life for something he otherwise wouldn't care about. You run around crying holy war - you have to do it for God or you won't go to heaven. Religion is a way of manipulating people into doing something you couldn't normally convince them to do. It's also used as a pacifier to comfort people when tragedy strikes. It makes people feel better to know that that person has gone to heaven etc.
Knowledge will be the end of religion eventually. This is clear. Do you still fear that god is angry with you when there is a thunder storm - think about it. Do you feel like you have done wrong and that is the reason for the storm like people used to? Or do you watch the weather forecast and know that the storm will be over in the morning - whether you have been bad or good.
Thanks for the chat guys, I'm sure we'll never agree on this stuff but I wish you all a nice life anyway.

God was not made. He simply Is. If there were ever a time when nothing existed then there would be nothing today. Something does not come from nothing. Nothing plus nothing equals nothing. Yet, here we are. So, I think that something must be uncreated, something that has always existed. To me, that something is God. God does not have a beginning, so He does not have a cause.Quote:
