I am infinitely more powerful than "God" the so called "creator", why? Because I don't need to 'prove' that I exist. Grin Grin Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy



If I don't have to prove that I exist, it does not mean I am more powerful than God, it means I don't know how to appear invisible  Grin

God has the ability to be invisible and can hide from even the best scientific instruments, therefore God is more powerful than me Smiley

Once you are dead, then you will REALLY need to prove that you exist. God will do it for you, in the resurrection.

Cool

To be fair BADecker, I would not want to come back to earth if I die. If there is an afterlife, I'm sure the afterlife world must be better than this earth Smiley

We've had this discussion between members of our team which includes people from several different countries and cultures. Normally USA people tend accept religion a bit more which is understandable because USA was built on religious "principles" and values. Plus several hundred years ago, everyone was a theist. The idea that there is not a god was preposterous in the 19th century. To be honest, personally, I do not know. It depends on what your definition of a "god" is.



True. I think Badecker is referring to a personal, powerful God with omnipotence, immortality, and omniscience who created this universe and therefore exists outside this universe.

As opposed to the pantheist version of God which equates God to the all-encompassing universe that holds everything and that nothing exists outside of the universe.

Cool
What He says in the bible? Or He can speak to you?


I KNOW God exists via the scientific proof that He exists.

I understand this point, it is very clear. Thank you

Good insight into the world of decentralization and why it's here to upend the current centralized world: https://www.axel.org/blog/decentralization-is-inevitable-and-heres-why/

To sum up what the article said, centralization is bad because when something goes wrong, the whole network goes awry, so it is better to have a decentralized network so that we would be independent of a network crash.

Badecker, I read your discourse on man's free will to choose evil over good. It was well-written, thanks!

Some people choose evil over good, this is a fact of life. How can we blame God for evil existing? Either we are created as robots who can do no harm and live in an evil-free world (what would be the point), or we are created as human beings with free will but the price we pay is evil existing among us for we can choose evil whenever we want to.

To be fair, the concept of God is extremely difficult to imagine. How can a being exist forever with no beginning? Infinity is so hard to grasp, it is much easier for me to believe in something that has a beginning and an end.

229  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Would a country ever support a decentralized cryptocurrency? on: December 13, 2018, 08:00:50 PM
There is no such thing as a decentralized cryptocurrency because the company or the lab that created it have a direct control over it because they can make infinite numbers of coins and manipulate the prices for profits in their advantage. For me, even Bitcoin is not decentralized that's why not a single government is going to support a cryptocurrency

So essentially this means cryptocurrency=fiat

Do not do good, but happiness. Good is also evil, dark rod, now you will understand why. Religions say that the souls come here to develop high qualities: forgiveness, compassion, etc., and divided according to level of development. BUT! Who are the souls - are we or the demons who come to feed on our suffering? Good and evil are facets of the same coin, no good without evil, but whether it actually is good? No development is necessary, man is created perfect, just apparent imperfection is the result of temptation, also perfect. Perfection can never be lost, it can only hang like a computer from overload for a certain time, that's the time and lasts for centuries. "What to do?"you ask. Answer: nothing, just let it recover, and any action will always only complicate everything. Any action will only prolong the Arab League, to restore only needs inaction. It is foolish to try to perfect the creation of God, which is already perfect. You do not think about how the blood runs in your body, she does it completely, so why do people constantly live with fears and think about life trying to improve it all the time, why would she just not trust her own body. What is common between cancer, nuclear explosion and childbirth is the process of uncontrolled division, even written not by chance as if "demons controlled". But the way it is, demons are profitable (according to their erroneous opinion) prevent the natural restoration of the divine plan, in which there is no evil and everyone is happy in Unity. We are all perfect from the beginning and always, perfection can not be lost, the thread with the Creator will never break, it can only be confused, what demons are actively doing and imposing false values on us under the guise of developing the mind and soul, in which we continue to give birth to maintaining the existence of mortality and feeding their world thereby. How to unravel the tangle? There is only one way: not to do anything, just relax and go with the flow, the perfection will unravel itself, the main thing is not to allow to confuse further, the most important thing: to stop childbirth, so that the posthumous world ceases to exist, from which comes the strongest influence on us. Why don't we remember our lives before we were born? To stay stupid. Why do we have a strong desire to reproduce, and with different women? To continue to give birth as much as possible.

Concentration of attention on breathing eliminates any dependence and attachment, and also heals mental pain, is the best a wedge, which knocks out any other a wedge. And the increased concentration with shutdown of other thoughts is the highest pleasure among existing. I noticed an interesting feature, only free air, for the rest you have to pay. Perhaps this is no coincidence, because if you take the money for the air, the person will begin to focus on it, and from this he will be happy, and from this man can not be controlled. False interests are instilled deliberately to divert attention, in this both systems are involved-human and from the world of souls, the dark do not want to lose power even for the sake of happiness with all that is better.

Man should be happy, not good, and good all evils and pulling in our world. Happy hard to look at the suffering, good-this is the reverse side of the coin with evil, and therefore also evil. It is necessary not to allow evil, to live with happy thoughts, otherwise the desire to help attracts events at which it is necessary to apply this desire already in practice. Himself has tried similar, practiced healing, passers-by often became poorly so. The world is a mirror of our thoughts, we can afford neither evil, nor good not even in my thoughts only to enjoy with happiness and joy!



In India, there is an ancient legend about the God Brahma, who was completely alone. There was nothing but Brahma, and he was very bored. Brahma wanted to play a game, but there was no one to play with. Then he created the beautiful goddess Maya, just for fun. When Maya appeared and Brahma explained to her the meaning of her existence, she said, "Well, let's play the most exciting game, only you will do what I say." Brahma agreed, and following Maya's instructions, created the Universe. He created the Sun and the stars, the moon and the planets. Then he made life on Earth: animals, oceans, atmosphere, and everything else.

Maya said: "how beautiful is the illusory world you created! And now I want you to create an animal so smart that it can appreciate the beauty of your work." And Brahma created men. When the creation was completed, he asked Maya if the game would start soon.
"Right now, "she replied, grabbed Brahma, cut into thousands of tiny pieces, put those pieces into each person, and said," the Game has begun! I'll try to make you forget who you are, and you try to find yourself again!»

Maya created a Dream, and Brahma is still trying to remember who he really is until today. Brahma is here within us, and Maya does not allow him to get out of oblivion.

When we awaken from Sleep, we become Brahma again, remembering our Divinity. And when Brahma within us says, " I am awake! But where are the rest of me?"we comprehend Maya's cunning and share the truth with others who are also destined to Wake up one day. In the crowd of drunks sober not so sad, if there are at least two. The more sober, the merrier. Start with yourself, then others will begin to change — and so on until all the drugged, all the gathered sober up.

Don Miguel Ruiz, "the Mastery of love»

And Maya who, then, is the chief of demons to this day?) It began to play then, the game turned into hell with suffering, apparently does not want to share power with Brahma, that prevents his recovery at any cost((


How do we wake up from this dream?

with the help of concentration on the breath, turning off other thoughts, you begin to understand that happiness is only inside

234  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it good to recruit other person to join Blockchain technology? on: December 13, 2018, 12:25:29 PM
I think majority of people here are very selfish ,. Believe it or not. They are hiding and choose not to tell to the other person especially to their neighbors what is cryptocurrency all about.
They don't want to spread the mechanism of it. And that is very wrong for me.
We must encourage people who have no idea to the cryptos. Teach them how to use and explain what is the benefits of it.
This is also for the good of our industry .
Remember the status of cryptocurrencies as of now is endangered and the value of bitcoins is gradually dropping .
So, the good thing to do is to spread out the operation of Blockchain technology.

I agree, education is needed to spread the economics of bitcoin and cryptocurrency to other people. Many people are fairly educated about bitcoin, but they don't believe in the value of bitcoin, the situation is even worse for non-familiar/non-Bitcoin cryptocurrency. Education is required in schools and colleges to get young people aware of the vast potential and strengths of decentralized currency. Mass adoption is needed to stabilize crypto prices and bring faith in the system

The Truth of God can indeed be tested. To do so requires extrapolating and determining the effects the belief has on every other belief one holds and then testing that entire complex against the alternative complex centered on around a disbelief in God.

I want to understand this


A short summary is below.
The link at the bottom has a longer explanation.


Claim #2 The Coherence Theory of Truth is the best known system that allows us to prove the truths we can and infer the truths we cannot.

The Coherence theory of truth provides us with a mechanism for testing both provable and unprovable truth. Coherence theory holds that a belief is true if we can incorporate it in an orderly and logical manner into a larger and complex system of beliefs or, even more simply still, a belief is true when it fits in with the set of all our other beliefs without creating a contradiction.

Coherence theory holds that a statement is true when it can be fully integrated into a group of complex ideas, the whole set of which is then tested against reality. Similarly an idea is false when it cannot be integrated into a group of complex ideas or if upon integration the set fails when tested against reality.

Another and more common word for an unprovable truth is an a priori truth.
