    most learn from others,some directly..

    why would taking responsibility for your own beliefs be a meta-religion?
    (i believe what i believe because I believe it,not because someone told me to believe it..)

    i think at this point you are reaching..

    so they (religion) would have you believe..

    No, you should have answered without looking at the image code or looking up the picture elsewhere.

    You should have also recognized Him as God.

    Ha!

    You're an extreme epistemic egoist.


    It's about whether you could know God without first learning who God is from other people.

    I am sure that God can "identify" Himself to people.
    I am not so sure people can identify God - at least not without reference to some existing theistic tradition.


    I find that a degree of questioning is necessary.


    I can only repeat:
    You only have your ideas of me.
    Which are only conditionally "yours", as they are largely defined by your specific cultural background.


    Did you ever try being a Muslim? A Hindu?


    I guess an extreme epistemic egoist does not care about such things.

    So you, too, are an extreme epistemic egoist.

    and apparently, you're a fucking idiot. ha!




    that's because you've never met god. i have, so i'm sure.




    god's answers are very clear. i think you'd rather spend your time questioning than ever attain any actual knowledge. what do you think about that?




    and i can only repeat, my ideas of you come from what you write on this forum.




    lol. no. i never tried being a christian. faith isn't something you try; it's something you have or you don't.




    and i guess idiots do.

    i couldn't help but look at the image code; it became apparent when i hit the quote button to respond to your post, silly.

    and why would i recognize that as god? why would i recognize any image as god? i've never seen god's face. i've never seen god in any apparent physical form except that part of creation i'm familiar with. none of the artistic depictions of christ are even correct, and he was a human.

    you don't make a lot of sense most of the time signal. you should consider that.

    Ironically, the only person here mocking that idea is you.

    and what do you know about logic? if you know anything about it at all, you surely don't put it to use on this forum...ever.

    Of course she does present good logic, but others emotions can block it.

    prove it. i have never known signal to present any logic, good or bad. signal is an evasive, dishonest troll who talks out both sides of his/her mouth. the only emotion signal ever incites is frustration because he/she never makes any sense. and speaking of emotion, the very reason signal is a troll is because he/she is jaded and having some martyr's pity party about the sad results of their own desires and actions. signal does nothing but look for someone to blame. signal is pathetic.
