Super-beings and supra-physical beings

We need to distinguish between an external super-being living in the sky and a supra-physical spiritual Being.

To no longer delude ourselves in the matter of actuality.

Sorry that you think you are deluding youself.

 

Have you not met Spellbound?

 

Haha. NO HE HAS NOT!

 

How do you know for sure?! Hmmmmm?
Maybe I work at the library....

 

Supra-physical Beings are real because to be supra-physical is simply to exist in a realm that is beyond what we interact with in the everyday human world. A super-being is like a god. And an external super-being is a god that exists separately from everything and everyone. Including you.

The matter of actuality is that there is a God and He is so Great that nothing in the multi-verse could exist without Him. Including the lesser gods.

Then Job answered the LORD and said, "I know that You can do all things, And that no purpose of Yours can be thwarted.

 

If we don't interact with them, how can you be so sure they are real? Where is your evidence for their existence, given that you say we don't interact with them?

So not God then, given that God - at least God described within scriptures - does not exist separately.

So you believe. Now, where's your evidence / support for such a claim?

"I am what I am" - Popeye.
See - I can provide quotes as well.

 

I fail to see how you could have missed this part "in a realm that is beyond what we interact with".

I've already provided logical evidence. If you need empirical evidence move to a Shaolin temple or become like God (loving, kind and good).

Coooooool.

 

Right, so if we don't interact with them, why do you think they're real?

 

Because we do.

 

Actually, Mars was real before discover it. And may be there are many intelligent creature than human on earth or in our universe. If it isn't, so what about to search aliens ? May be they can prove themselves to us but we can't prove them.

 

'Supra' is just Latin for 'above'. So 'supra-being' suggests 'higher-being' which suggests 'super-being'.

I do think that a valid distinction can be made between non-physical being and divine being. Just because a hypothetical being isn't physical wouldn't necessarily make it superior in a religious or moral sense. Being non-physical wouldn't make something worthy of worship.

Which is?
Oh, sorry saw you already answered that.

 

I didn't miss it, hence my question: how can you be so sure they are real if we can't/don't interact with them? Are you going to answer that question, which a number of people have asked?

No, you've provided, as ever, merely a claim. Where is this "logical evidence"? And what do you even mean by "logical evidence"? If you mean it is evidence that, if taken as a premise, leads validly to the conclusion that such things do exist, then please post the logical argument, starting with the evidence. We can then move from there to assessing the validity and then the soundness of the argument.
Can you do that for us, please? Is it too much to ask?

 

Spellbound: your question contains the implicit premise that supernatural beings exist. As is apparent, this is not an accepted premise for many of the rest of us.

Would it make sense to start with "This discussion is applicable to believers in (or granters of) supernatural entities only"?

Otherwise, as has happened, your discussion will never get off the ground unless you can get others to grant the initial premise, even if only for argument's sake.

To others: I put to you the same thing: given the implicit premise (possibly soon-to-be explicit) that supernatural creatures do exist (even if only for argument's sake), I would argue that it is technically off-topic to ask for evidence of that premise.

Seems to me, if anyone is going to participate meaningfully in such a discussion, they ought to grant the premise, or be silent on the subject.

Spellbound? Your call.
