man=god?

this is where we discuss the relationship between man and god. if you do not believe in a god (human or otherwise) the please do not post, as this discussion is rooted in belief that God exists.

question
1. what is the nature of man as he relates to god?


my answer:
Man is the physical expression of God, all aspects of God are represented in man. identical in nature but not in magnitude.

i will elaborate as the discussion continues.

Question: Can an individual observe your god? Can your god be detected by using the five senses?

the 5 senses do not define what is real and what is not.

can you see infra red light ?
can you prove love exists with any of your senses?
prove that anger is real.
explain how a dog whistle works.

the 5 senses are your minds interpretation of external stimuli.
human senses are subject to the range of stimuli they csn detect.

but stick to the topic.

I AM STICKING TO THE TOPIC.

INFRA RED LIGHT CAN BE DETECTED BY USING THE FIVE SENSES. I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU CALL LOVE, BUT I CAN DETECT LOVE USING MY FIVE SENSES JUST AS I CAN WITH ANGER.

the relationship between man and god

MY QUESTION STILL STANDS.

how? you can see beyond the visible light spectrum?!?!

prove that anger is real. i suggest that anger is nothing more than an electro chemical reaction that is characterized by a set of standard behavior. but the emotion of anger is not real.

How can you distinguish between love and someone acting like they love you? or does the behavior determine the reality? meaning ,if they do the things that lovers do then they are in love?

yes. now answer my Original question

1. what is the nature of man as he relates to god?

STAY ON TOPIC PLEASE. INFRARED LIGHT, LOVE, ANGER.....YOUR WAY OFF TOPIC. IF YOU WANT TO DISCUSS THOSE TOPICS....LOVE, ANGER, INFRARED LIGHT WE CAN, BUT THIS THREAD ISN'T ABOUT THAT.

I SEE YOU EITHER CAN'T ANSWER MY QUESTION OR SIMPLY DON'T WANT TO ANSWER MY QUESTION.

(BLACK)MAN IS GOD.

[Black Man]

JUST IN CASE YOU FORGOT MY QUESTION

Question: Can an individual observe your god? Can your god be detected by using the five senses?

Answer : yes and yes. the universe itself is observable.

but i'm not going to keep asking you questions then you respond with a question.

if this build is to be meaningful, it is critical that you inject your own understanding into it. i think the 1st thing to do is to define who/what god is, and how he relates to man.
then we can explore the reasoning behind that definition.

if you wanna play mental chess then we need to remove the confines of "keeping on topic"

[Black Man]

Answer : yes and yes. the universe itself is observable.

I DIDN'T ASK IF THE UNIVERSE ITSELF IS OBSERVABLE I ASKED IS YOUR GOD OBSERVABLE.

but i'm not going to keep asking you questions then you respond with a question.

YOU'RE ASKING ME QUESTIONS BECAUSE OF MY QUESTION. ASKING ABOUT LOVE AND ANGER AND INFRARED LIGHT AS IF THAT HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE SUBJECT. MY QUESTION WAS A DIRECT QUESTION BASED ON THE TOPIC AT HAND.

if this build is to be meaningful, it is critical that you inject your own understanding into it. i think the 1st thing to do is to define who/what god is, and how he relates to man.

I CAN'T GIVE YOU MY UNDERSTANDING ALL I CAN DO IS GIVE YOU KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM. UNDERSTANDING...YOU GOTTA GET THAT ON YOUR OWN FOR NO PERSON CAN GIVE ANOTHER PERSON UNDERSTANDING.

I ASKED QUESTIONS TO THE "AUTHOR" OF THIS THREAD SO I CAN BETTER UNDERSTAND WHERE YOU'RE COMING FROM WITH "GOD" "MAN" AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP.

if you wanna play mental chess then we need to remove the confines of "keeping on topic"

IT SOUNDS LIKE THATS WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO DO. I INITIALLY ASKED TWO QUESTIONS AND YOU RESPONDED WITH A FEW QUESTIONS THAT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR TOPIC.

AND I ALREADY ANSWERED YOUR QUESTION.....(BLACK)MAN IS GOD

okay i play b y your rules since you can't play by mine.

yes you can observe god using the 5 senses.


i didn't ask u to give me understanding. i asked you to inject your understanding into the conversation. in other words, filter the info thru your own reasoning. but since we are on that subject, you can't give knowledge or wisdom either. when you share those things, they become information which i must process into my own knowledge and wisdom.

you would have to be absolutely positive of what god is and isn't to be able to answer these questions - people have ideas of what god is, most if not all of these ideas were put into peoples heads by other people who had ideas of what this god is -


your answer is like a b-ball show - the players are out on the field being watched and admired by an entertained audience - while the coach is on the side lines...coaching. But God (the owner) is in the nose bleed sections in the dark somewhere, no one knows who he is.

too many concepts - too many beliefs

So basically you're saying that you want this to be a one-sided discussion.

[diggy]

To know the relationship of man to god, we have to know what is man and what is god.

How can you know the one is like the other? What comparisons do we have?

this is a more specific conversation. we know where u stand and thats cool. this thread is for believers. atheistic comments will do nothing but distract.
You feel left out? welcome to earth. you, as an atheist, are part of a very small minority.


to address the other comments... well what do you believe?

i remember in grade 12 philosophy learning about "common sense realism" which is a philosophical standpoint that states the truth is only definable through the five senses, or basic common sense.

unfortunately, it was only one theory amongst many.

too many people believe that it is the only intellectual path.
