You’ve always been an inspiration to me bc of your strength and grace in handling the loss of your wife, particularly how you focused your energies in doing something productive like keeping us updated with pedo arrests. But this is next level. Do you have any books or video suggestions for spiritual debates? Carry on pede.
https://youtu.be/UwE1wn-1seg explains the double slit proving a consciousness principle very succinctly.
https://youtu.be/_ie9musGEqQ argues against the hypothesis that something comes from nothing due to the semantics of what nothing is. It then goes on to explain again that consciousness is fundamental to the existence of any reality, and that god is the ultimate expression of a universal consciousness.
The arguments of god's existence are to me pointless mainly because of semantics as well. There is no concrete definition to argue. How does one argue for or against the ineffable? An atheist will use a definition that enforces his argument, as will the theist.
An ignostic position is both arguments are from faith, ergo believe what you will believe. If both are from faith, then neither can be proven with logic or empiricism. If neither can be proven through faith alone, then the argument is moot. Listening to constantly pointless theist and atheistic debates on the subject led me to this conclusion.
As one digs further into the concept of faith itself, one eventually realises it underpins all knowledge. We have faith our physical laws are repeatable, but time and study has proven said laws can be flawed, and we find new meaning in that discovery. And to know what exists outside what we can experience ourselves or via technology is an impossibility.
Our consciousness, our capability to reason and believe, has more power than any of us truly understand. It also means our choices in what we believe matter. I choose to believe god exist, ergo god exists for me.
Take "positive thinking" - if you have faith that things will get better for you or a goal will be reached, then over time they will. It took me years to believe that for myself, but once i did things did happen that i sought to have happen. It takes hard work and constant reinforcement, but it does come through eventually. All it takes is faith.
QM really blew things away for me. Especially the double slit experiment. That was crazy
