French Patriot Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Is belief in the supernatural an intelligent person’s game? Nothing that I know of, other than personal renderings or hear say, has ever been produced or provide to show the existence of a supernatural realm or entities. The ancients did not seem to think the supernatural was a reality. https://bigthink.com/videos/what-is-god-2-2 No entity, good or evil, have ever manifested itself in a provable way, even though some think god is Omni-present and that Satan was given the ability and power to deceive us all. I think that those who believe in supernatural entities are being taken advantage of by fraudulent preachers who recognize our propensity of over imagination, which we all have, as shown in the Princess Alice experiments. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWx_uVDh4Cw I can see some benefits in imaginary thinking to validate or refute ideas but that is about it. Is belief or faith in the supernatural a worthy idea for us or is it a tool used by lying preachers intent on fleecing sheeple? If there is no supernatural god, should we not seek a human leader or spiritual guide instead of idolizing imaginary supernatural gods that are demonstrably less moral than humans?

Marocc Posted July 16, 2019 Report Share Posted July 16, 2019 Thee are plenty of human leaders and spiritual guides and they have many many followers. But following them isn't all that different from following a religion, except that it is far more understandable to follow God than to follow a fellow human being.

You can question a god can you? Are you fond of the genocidal and infabticidal god that the majority of the world follows at present? Are you fond of the homophobic and misogynous religions that god has following him? Regards DL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I accepted and mostly agreed and spoke to what I did not agree with by questioning. If you need a pat on the back for everything you say that is half way correct, -------- I think you are accusing me of what you do, given that you did not attempt to answer my questions. That or you just chose to deflect away from them because you could not refute them with a decent answer. Regards DL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I care, in the case of Christians and Muslims, the majority of the world, that their moral sense has been corrupted by their beliefs and that they have created homophobic and misogynous religions that do a lot of harm as they deny women and gays equality without a just cause. Why do you not have a problem with that? Regards DL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
