The God Logic

Name: Anonymous 2010-08-26 4:49

When we were young we didn't know we would die, the assumption was we're immortal. That delusion came quickly to an end as reality stepped in.

Human:
Mortal
Locally Present
Limited Ability
Visible
Vulnerable
Limited Knowledge
Fallible

God:
Immortal
Omnipresent
Omnipotent
Invisible
Invulnerable
All-knowing
Infallible

To have God in your life is to remind yourself of your humanity. To expel God from your life as non-existent is to proclaim that, by default, you are God as no other exists. It is merely a means of debate that will rule in favor of the reality of that situation. To have God in your life isn't indoctrination, it's a logical choice. Without that, reason flies out the window in favor of passion and egotism driving the individual. This is a choice as well.
Free-Will, it is a bitch.

The God you serve now is your future self.

Mind = Blown.

Some people can view themselves so analytically that they think they are emotionless and unfeeling while thinking their computer is somehow a superior piece of technology that is somehow the savior of all mankind.
Okay, I am definitely calling BS on that one.
And don't say "Singularity;" that would be relying on ignorance and stereotyping.

I think you really are taking this "substitute comparison with God" idea way too far and spreading it way too broadly on far too little evidence.  Trying to say a comparison between the human mind and a computer is a manifestation of trying to find "comfort" using "anthropomorphism" to diminish the challenging of information is either convoluted hogwash or embellishment of a much more simple psychological phenomenon.  (I'm only going to start on "God which is more than human" by asking why God could not be less than human, greater than the universe?  There's no single objective system of existential "greater-than"s that exist except those that are intended to glorify or demean something specific.  Such a state is entirely possible for God unless you say humans are comparable to the universe; but, your previous argument has already negated the meaningfulness of such a comparison.)

I also have my suspicions that you used to sign your posts.
