From another thread:


This guy seems to say:" God is absolute truth."

Who agrees with this statement?

I agree with this statement. The closest things in my hunt for absolution has been found in only two areas: mathematics and God.

Another way of saying it would be that God is the 'ultimate reality'.


This is my view...that God is the same "ultimate reality" that many philosophers discourse on, the difference between these particular philosophers and religious people being that, while philosophers speculate, religious people actually reach out to and connect with the "ultimate reality".

I sure do, not only is it a classical tenet of Christianity but it's also a conclusion that can be arrived at through reason. Aristotle talked about it, and St. Thomas Acquinas discussed it at length.

I agree that your God is absolute truth, unless you can tell yourself lies and believe them.

I can tell you what colour your God is if you tell me what colour you are.
MY FRIEND,

It would follow, then, from your "logic", that having no god, atheists must be color-less.

When a human being lacks color, it is generally because they are dead, so i guess perhaps there is some limited merit and application to your "logic" after all. i stand in awe!
