The one that holds true for everyone, whether we are aware of it or not.
That's the problem Sarkus, I haven't claimed that God exists, in this thread. I've shown that I haven't, so there is nowhere to go in this discussion. It is clear that you need me to make a claim of God' existence, and if I don't, you're going to say I did anyway.
You HAVE claimed it. It is a clear logical implication as explained to you on numerous occasions. It is your subsequent and continued denial that is frustrating. Everyone apart from you has seen that you have claimed it... and that you have subsequently denied claiming it.
It's pathetic. You seem to think if something is not explicitly stated then it isn't stated, and that we're not allowed to follow valid and sound logical reasoning to identify your implicit claims?
I am precise in what I say.
Au contraire, as shown with the examples of inconsistencies previously highlighted.
God exists, in some form or other. We live in a world where the majority believes in God, and some other don't. It all revolves around God, so regardless of belief God exists, or we wouldn't be wasting our time with these long discussions.
Again with the inconsistencies of your posts:
You have previously stated, which started this whole mess: "
A world with no God, means no ability to imagine, and a world where imagination exists is a world with God." Now, if we all admit that God exists in some form or other, the only way would be to include in that "some form or other" the notion that God is simply a concept, albeit defined as "Original Cause", but simply a concept nonetheless.
But your words: "
A world with no God, means no ability to imagine,..." does not fit with this... because if God
is just a concept then a world with no such concept does NOT mean that there is no ability to imagine. Thus you are claiming in that original post (#662) that God is more than just a concept. You even say in another post (#702): "
This is where you keep going wrong. God isn't just a theory, God is the original cause everything".
QED - you claim one thing in one post, deny it in another, change it in yet another.
Inconsistency upon inconsistency; imprecision upon imprecision.
In order to prove something exists, you need to have a definition of that thing.
Indeed. And we're working with "God is the Original Cause" - after all, if you can't prove the single attribute that you claim makes God God, then what hope have you got.
So unless we have a definition, there's is no hope of proving anything. It seems I'm the only one concerned with this. Everyone else seems content with just using the term ''God'', without knowledge of what God means.
Not true. You have insisted upon the definition, and we're rumbling along with it. Where's the issue with that?
But as soon as I move towards comprehending who and what God is, I am charged with claiming that God actually exist, and am incapable of dissociating myself from that idea.
Because of the imprecision of your wording that leads (albeit unintentionally by yourself, it seems) to such logical implications. If you want to avoid those implications then improve the precision of what you say so as to avoid it. Simply denying it doesn't alter that you
did claim it. And you have not shown how the logical deduction is flawed - you have merely bleated "you're wrong" or words to that effect.
You and others on here, are not concerned with trying to find proof of God's existence.
Again not true. I would think it a Nobel winning achievement to be able to prove that God exists. But if your starting point is that God is the "Original Cause" you surely need to show that such a cause is a necessity.
So let's start there. If you can't show that an Original Cause is a necessity, what hope have you of proving that there was one?
