What's God made of?

For debate:

What's God made of?

[JoeyKnothead]

This is getting funnier and funnier with each new attempt at what TRUTH(tm) can be put to the OP.

Are you suggesting I made any claim of truth regarding the OP?

I can only conclude post comments comply with site rules on staying on topic to the OP. To conclude otherwise is to accuse em of violating those rules.

Had you not snipped my comments, you'd see I'm absolutely certain you can't, or won't, put you no TRUTH(tm) the OP. The observer's left to ponder why you think your belief puts any TRUTH(tm) to it.


Look, this ain't my problem. As one who promotes TRUTH(tm), it'd be rightly on you to present you some of it, but all you do is wanna carry on about your beliefs.

You're the self-professed promoter of TRUTH(tm) - don't fuss at me when you fail at the task.

Folks claim there's a god.

They're correct.

What evidence do you find most confirmatory for this conclusion?

The presence of the universe, my own existence within that universe.

What, specifically, about the universe shows us a god exists?

What, specifically, about your existence shows us there's a god?

Ain't it a bit prideful to think, "Well here's ol fancy me, there must be a god!"?

What is empty space made from? it too exists.

So God's empty space?

No, you misunderstood, I was asking you what is space made from to show others here that you don't know, and you don't know otherwise I'm sure you'd have answered rather than evaded.

Please consult site rules. As I've not made claims in this regard, I'm under no obligation to support em.

Space might well be made of stuff we've yet to figure out.

I told you, God is made from God, composed from God, why won't you listen to common sense?

And tautologies are made from tautologies.

What confirmatory evidence can you provide for your claim?

The presence of the universe, my own existence within that universe.

As above, please provide some means to confirm these links.

How do you get from, "Well howdy there, ya big ol universe", to "So proud there's a god"?

What is anything made of?

Depends on what anything, and to what level of detail we can provide.

I like to build stuff. Metal, wood, nails or screws, glue, and cussing're the most common materials, but not necessarily in that order.

Snip request for composition of stuff I ain't claimed to exist.

Do you know what love is made of?

I make no claims regarding the makeup of love.

Do you know what love's made of?

Is love made if God? Is God made of love?
Please show your work.

What I'm trying to teach you here is that the question "What is God made of" is one of a class of questions, it isn't hard to answer because it's asking about God, it's hard to answer because the subject cannot be decomposed, like "love" we cannot apply reduction to the subject of the question.

So we disregard reduction and seek some other means of sorting out how this alledged sentient, acting entity might've come to be.

Basically asking the question and seeing no answer that satisfies you is not some kind of proof that God does not exist or cannot exist,

The observer's expected to draw their own conclusions. But for me, I ain't yet seen evidence sufficient to draw the conclusions you seem to have drawn, namely that whole 'universe, so God' angle.

I've spent enough time now genuinely trying to help you, if this isn't valued or you just want a back-n-forth then I'm done.

I agree you're being as open and honest as ya can, no shenanigans nor nothing. I'd tell it in court.

I find our exchange quite valuable, as it gives us all more data.

I seek to understand the validity of your conclusions.

You'll either engage or not. As for me, I'd hate for the observer to go away possibly thinking I ran off when the questioning got to be it too much.

Thats fine then; if you dont have anything else you would like to ask me, I'll wish you a most excellent weekend.


Carry on,

And you and yours.

Carry on,

So ya know, though it may seem otherwise, I ain't ever hating on ya, as you're typically pleasant and quite intelligent. You hone my skills, and make me think about real or potential errors in my own thinking.

It's just I like to, as you say, "carry on"

Do you know what love is made of?

Love is not an entity. Does love exist in the absence of an intelligent mind? Do intelligent minds exist in the absence of a suitable substrate capable of formulating ideas and feelings and so on? Can a God exist in the absence of those things?

Is that your attempt at an answer to "What's love made of"? because if you don't just say that.

The presence of the universe, my own existence within that universe.

What, specifically, about the universe shows us a god exists?

What, specifically, about your existence shows us there's a god?

Its' presence, my presence.

If you find a coin in the desert then you can infer that something must have lead to the coin being there, inferring God when we find the universe, the vast, huge, universe is entirely rational and reasonable.

Ain't it a bit prideful to think, "Well here's ol fancy me, there must be a god!"?

I have no idea.

What is empty space made from? it too exists.

So God's empty space?

What's empty space made from I asked, do you know or don't you?

Just give honest answers to my questions, or is that asking too much from you?

[Diogenes]

"What is God made of" is a good question. It has no answer... or it has so many answers it is again rendered meaningless. All this fuss over a term, a concept that cannot be defined... except to say it is beyond definition... an absurd idea to merely put a label on what we do not know.

Good ole intelligent design. That horse's been beat dead so many times, yet some Christians still try to resurrect it.

What's empty space made from I asked, do you know or don't you?

I'm not the one claiming space is empty, so I'm under no obligation to try to support your claim.

Just give honest answers to my questions, or is that asking too much from you?

I'm content to leave the observer to decide who's doing the honest answering.

Even Dawkins advocates intelligent design, I guess you never knew that did you?



Very well, our conversation is at and end, continuing with it can serve no purpose.
