RE: Why is Hamza Tzortzis wrong? The attributes of god.

in #philosophy8 years ago

Yes, the first point is a rather silly thing, but all the endeavor of using reason to deduce god is silly at best. If god actually acts within time, he's by definition in time as a cause. His own perception of time is no more relevant than a mere point of view. Not only this idea precludes a relationship with men (because there is no reciprocity), it also leads to the deterministic fate thing/problem Presbyterians call upon themselves. Well, I'll leave it aside because the whole issue is senseless.

Now, the second issue is a tad more interesting. I reach the conclusion that a reasoned god would either: A) be inside the universe, B) be the universe, and thus not a god, or C) is transcendent, but has nothing whatsoever to do with the universe (how many of those can we postulate?). This argument is a little more interesting because of its heterodoxy but let's admit its just as senseless.
