    The 2015 CRICKET World Cup Thread

    what do they do that you would describe is arrogant and unsportsman-like?

    Does God exist?

    What makes them necessary truths and not gravity? Or physical and observed phenomena?

    Does God exist?

    what do you mean show it instead of assert it? Show what? That's the relationship between Euthyphro dilemna and Omnipotence, what else is there to show? I do not know how to phrase it more simply but I'm assuming you don't have an argument against it and that is why you're choosing not to reply...

    The 2015 CRICKET World Cup Thread

    i mean not to go all racist bogan or anything but i would assume if you were raised in a country you would probably support it in sport over another country you don't have any personal affiliation with? Also the Australian team gets all this criticism of being arrogant etc. leveled at it but I...

    Does God exist?

    So essentially we have a Being that on the one hand exists beyond space-time and therefore is not bound by the laws of the Universe, can perform all forms of miracles that defy the laws of nature and reason, knows literally everything that happens in the Universe, happens to be everywhere at the...

    Does God exist?

    Lmao i did reply, you simply haven't provided any actual coherent reply to it. "One can think morality is "arbitrary" or "independent" or even (since the dilemma is not exhaustive) "grounded in the nature of God", and the logicality of omnipotence is not effected." No, it is DEFINITELY...

    wait, why do they deserve it more than australia lol?

    Does God exist?

    Um no, morality and omnipotence are directly related in the Euthyphro dilemna, in fact omnipotence is one of the huge issues arising from it because if morality is arbitrary or independent then it contradicts the supposed omnipotence of God. If it goes against the law of nature and has no...

    Does God exist?

    No you didn't actually, in fact it's common knowledge that the only two solutions to the omnipotence paradox (look it up btw) are that either a) God cannot do something illogical or b) God can do something illogical. Solution a) then leads to the Euthrypho dilemna, so essentially if God can...

    Does God exist?

    Provide me the source showing that that is the most used definition of omnipotence Are you claiming btw that the actions of God are limited by logic? They either are or they are not. It's the case because the fact is causation is linked to the notion of time unless you take the case where they...

    Does God exist?

    but that's a view among "theologians" not necessarily philosophers as a whole, nor is it a view based on the actual definition of what the word omnipotent means. Where is it stated that omnipotence isn't unlimited power? Yes but that's why your example about causality not being dependent on...

    2015 NSW State Election

    the Coalition was always going to win, though the swing against them isn't as big as people initially anticipated (probs due to Baird kinda detaching himself from his federal counterparts a bit)
  14. Kiraken

    Does God exist?

    Yes but that means you have to prove that such a being is uncaused anyway in your rational argument
  15. Kiraken

    Does God exist?

    "An omnipotent being is one that can do all possible things" Based on what definition? Omnipotence is by definition *unlimited* power And yes u can suppose that but that one exception cannot be applied to the creation of the universe and the concept of God creating the universe because by that...

    Does God exist?

    However, Sy raises an important point, and that is the definition of God. God, being by definition an omnipotent being, is therefore not bound by any laws or rules, and is not constrained by logic or science. Simply put, it is impossible to "disprove" God's existence simply because a truly...
  17. Kiraken

    Does God exist?

    Yes but that's attaching a definition to something to prove it. You're defining God as a being that is uncaused and then saying therefore God doesn't need a cause. Now if someone was to come up with a term such as XYZ and then defined it in such a manner, or if someone defined the Universe or...

    The 2015 CRICKET World Cup Thread

    india needs a better bowling attack, it's pretty mediocre imo and their batting has been carrying them for much of the cup didn't expect them to win at any point and the only really class team they came across up till now was South Africa (Pakistan had an absolutely horrendous opening 2 matches...
