and there's no real way to assail that
Ok let me try to follow ur asshat here
Literally any god could be real if you're for deism
in any form
period
xinyue are u chinese
The deist god is real
his name is Hitler and he fled to Argentina
Deism is the most tenable position to have in theism, because it makes no further claims on God than his existence
it could be any number of gods
including those not conceived of by mankind
but in billions of possible forms, those would not be yahweh
Deism is like being indecisive on the soap to shower with
you still need a fucking shower you smelly bastard
God is not "a", he "is". His existence lies in the fact that being is intelligible.
of all the possible forms, picking out the one that was part of a 4,000 year old jewish desert state cult is pretty bad bet at any rate
God is not something of a will other than existance.
like
its
really bad
*really really bad*
when I say 6 yo tier I mean it
there are 300 prophecies of Jesus in the old testament.
its probably the best bet, its philosophy is the most useful to a secular world due to its values of tolerance
> best bet
why would it be? Literally no reason to think it would be
literally no other religion is as useful to humanity as christianity in terms of good works and deeds
that's a blatant lie
*looks at communism*
Sure thing, bud
literally a bunch of religions can compete with Christianity on moral terms
its not even hard
Christianity being morally repugnant
on terms of physical works, not really
define "physical works"
on terms of influence on modern science and education, not really
The change of Jesus, not being God and the prophecies all being wrong is 1 in 10^17
infact platonic thought brought to the west by christian theologians is responsible for the foundation of multiple concepts used by physicists
aka big ass number
modern science is not a christian achievement, its an achievement of the Europeans of renaissance and enlightenment looking back to the pre-Christian graeco-roman culture and tradition for inspiration. Literally does not emerge out of the Christian doctrine.
all the fucking science u have xinyue was worked out and based of the church
