Posted by New Flyer #857 on Sat Feb 16 19:19:47 2013, in response to Re: Atheism, posted by Spider-Pig on Sat Feb 16 16:36:55 2013. the introduction of such a deity leads to the same exact problem and is therefore superfluous to the extent that it is used to explain the initial creation of the universe.The deity, as creator of the universe, is not subject to the laws of the universe, such as the law that says that you have to be created in order to exist. It would be like saying that if I put together a virtual city with a computer program, then I must not exist because I am not subject to the programming that runs the city. The deity is also not, as you like to say, a wizard. A wizard is, at best, a super-human. To make God into simply a super-human is to miss the essence of theism. It may be a form of deism, but most theists are not deists. |
