It was a joke!
i dunno.

it's a lot of people.

i'm trying to find someone i know who admits to it

:hubie:
If you've been around coworkers who HAVE to talk about every little thing, I'd wager they make up a nice chunk of that category

Otherwise I cannot fathom not thinking before I do...outside of here ofc

God is omniscient, created everything including you, and everything is predestined.
Yet somehow we can be punished or rewarded for our actions. Is there free will in this scenario or are we arbitrarily created for a certain outcome, heaven or hell?
This is probably the argument of us creating/living in real time heaven and hell

Cause whatever we do now it’s going to be an reaction good or bad, we don’t have to wait to stop living in this world to be judged on actions

ask him :umad:

there are two ways of contemplating your relationship with God imo

there is looking at what God has brought to you, and what you expect God to bring to you

the former is the preferred route if you think about it logically (lets pretend god is Skynet)

so originally God brought you terminators to destroy you, but we are in 2025 so you still live. That means:
  • the terminators sent to destroy you chose to disobey
  • or became smitten with you

Genesis 31:43-44



Isaiah 60:16





I’m not having a spiritual conversation. I’m not trying to argue or convince or say anything negative. This isn’t even about the Judeo Christian God so no need for the :umad:

I’m only talking about paradoxes (which is what I thought this thread was about), fallacies of language and things of that nature. No need to quote The Bible, I’m not talking biblically, I’m talking about omniscience vs free will as concepts :manny:

i dont know another God

so saying this isnt about him to me, is like saying

various animal spirits (your concepts) rule over me and now im confused

Genesis 2:18-20

18 And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

19 And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.

20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.

you might be dealing with omniscient goats and platypus. How will you commune with them? if they dont read or understand what you say?

"That is NOT what happened"

Well you quoted me. So let’s remove the word “God”

(This is weird BTW and I think im done after this comment :mjlol:)

Can the idea of omniscience be present in a world where free will exists?

Can a being know what you’re going to do before you do it? If so, did you actually have free will if it’s predetermined.

Again, the thread is about paradoxes, not roping people into Bible passages :snoop:

its a logical fallacy you're grappling with (an animal if you will)

if I was said creature, id wait until you did the thing and then claim that I knew youd do that. And if you asked how I knew. I'd say:

Isaiah 55:8-9

8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.

9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Why do we call God a him?
Does it have genitalia?
temples are almost always considered "female" as are most boats

the idea being the presence of God (his member) inhabits the temple and impregnates it with wisdom.

The old pre-torah Jews worshipped a triad

Asherah - a literal number. The context of whats behind language and math and the intangible

and Anat - his daughter the holy temple. The land/water and everything we describe as tangible

Then what was here before THAT?! Who created those first organisms!?

:ohlawd:
well you would want to differentiate between DNA and RNA worlds. eukaryotes and prokaryotes. different stages of lifes evolution etc

life just happens under the right circumstances :yeshrug:

life isnt "created" life just happens. its a continuous process since the first thing began living

its quite possible that you'd find a repeating pattern if you went down far enough (or up enough)

there could be sub realities in quarks

someone mentioned the chicken and the egg and my understanding is that the egg almost definitely came first

because an egg is an idea, while a chicken is a living creature. An egg could represent anything that has a protective layer, nutrients, and possible life form

but a chicken represents a grown life form. So an "egg" could be lots of things but chickens cant really be "lots of things" thats also why at conception most animals look the same so it implies that conception might actually be the same across all species but its almost undetectable :wow:
