Hi Mike and wecome to this topic!
Real is what ever you want it to be :) or not to be. This is a wide open topic.
And when one posts in this topic you get "post credits" (I am a "Senior Member" and am working my way to being an "Elder Member". God guys! That is three thousand posts.) On this topic anybody can get "Post Credits" whether they believe in God/Goddess/It (someone/Something that/who is a Supreme Being) or not.
Everyone has permission to get "post credits" on this topic whether they are pro Divine Being or not. And all comments are welcome about this Divine Being stuff. Pro or Con.
Minimal rules for posting: "God is real! I win!" or "God is not real! I win!"
Relative to those two rules, posting why you feel the way you do is also welcome. And any dialog that results from why you feel the way you do is also welcome (As long as you are not an angry person. Being an "angry posting member" is against the rules of All Forums.net).

American Mozzarella is real cheese (by American standards), but it's not real mozzarella because it's made from cow milk, not buffalo milk.

It's interesting that Epicurus said that--you wouldn't think to say such things about traditional Greek deity beliefs. I suppose Greece in 250 BC was already feeling the influence of the monotheistic ideas from central Asia.

God very well could be real... anyone who says that God does not exist with 100% certainty is only patting their own ego because of their own uncertainty. I could care less if someone's decision is to not believe in God, but if they go on the attack, it makes a very shitty impression.

Problem with that statement is that religious people dont seem to notice the difference between a god, entity, deity, whatever, who initiated this universe and the religious claims made by various old texts. The first one cannot be proven or disproven, the claims of the second can be in many cases. Also the fundamental uncertainty regarding a god renders all religions equally uncertain, which is also why we have so many.
I would go so far as to say religion has no more idea who god is than anyone else. They just copyrighted, packaged and sold him to the masses.

Angel :) I hate this but I have to agree with Afinertouch when he said that he agreed with you. :) There is no getting around it that you are right!
But just because God has been given a "Bad Rap" by :banana: 's Does not mean that "He/She/It" is not real. Satan is real also and he creates lies that lead folks away from actually exploring the possibility that God is real. And totally "Not at fault people!" are suckered by these lies and then go on to promote these lies.
Anyone who has truely actually explored God in a personal sense has found "Him/Her/It" real. Maybe they found "Him/Her/It" scary, but they did find "Him/Her/It" real. And if they are persistant, "They win!"
God is real! I win!

I don't deny the possibility that a spiritual entity, or deity, energy, or God that is not as we as christians have defined exists. I know many people do, and while i CHOOSE to believe that God is as Christians say he is, I don't close the book on what COULD be.
I can only speak for myself though, Alot of christians give christianity a bad rap... just like some football players give the NFL a bad rap.

Hi Decka, I have never read one of your posts that didn't speak with a "mind" behind the/your words. At least relative to my reailty/experience. For what ever that is worth.
Just for the rercord Decka :) what you have posted opens Pandora's box :) ok :)
God as a personal choice is "CHOOSE", at least to have a look at things. Jesus said somewhere that, ""Faith" can be based on experience with God."
I have never had "Faith", weren't brought up that way. But I did have "Hope" :) ,and "Love" was actually drifty.
I actually left traditional Christianity to explore things as a mystic yogi. Shiva (the king of yogis) became my teacher. Actually as a gift from Jesus :) There ain't a yogi in todays world (that is not immortal :) ) that is in my weight class. None :) and then Shiva brought me back to Jesus.
All of "Good" is on Jesus's side and He is on their side :) . Everybody's object is to encourage/help everyone who is interested, in exploring a personal relationship with "what ever "It" is", that is, what we call "A Loving God."
Love you and thank you!

Satan is the least likely character to exist, he serve no purpose outside scaring people in religion and being the one everyone blame for everything bad. That paragraph there just makes no sense to non christians whatsoever :)

Is There a Santa Claus
by Francis Pharcellus Church
Published in the New York Sun, September 21, 1897
We take pleasure in answering thus prominently the communication below, expressing at the same time our great gratification that its faithful author is numbered among the friends of The Sun:
Dear Editor:
I am 8 years old. Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. Papa says, "If you see it in The Sun, it's so. Please tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus?
Virginia O'Hanlon
Virginia, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except what they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men's or children's, are little. In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge.
Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus.
He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The external light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.
Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies. You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if you did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that's no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and un-seeable in the world.
You tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived could tear apart. Only faith, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, Virginia, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding.
No Santa Claus? Thank God he lives and lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay 10 times 10,000 years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.

From Angelina's linked article:
Because it is the most scientifically rigorous investigation of whether prayer can heal illness, the study, begun almost a decade ago and involving more than 1,800 patients, has for years been the subject of speculation.
I wonder how scientifically rigorous the studies in mikezila's cute little list were? I get visions of priests and docs fudging findings. With homemade fudge, of course. Store bought just doesn't have the same yumminess.

Some people (like me) will do anything for "post credit" numbers :) It is not the quality of ones posts that make them an "Elder/Seinor" member, it is the quanty! :)
Afinertouch, it is too bad that you were a pussy and pushed the "red button". Oh well :) I will just have to be slicker about being a "ruffian" :)
Even though God is very very real (at least can be), I only win because I get a "post credit", it actually has nothing to do with God :) I am just using Him for an excuse.
Anyway Afinetouch thank you for your good wishes!
Love!

God didn't do anything, that is the whole point...
I can't fail God cause there is no one to fail, neither can I fail Santa. That doesn't make me evil, just rational :)
Angel, that was well said! :)
And just for the record I don't really care if other people believe in a "Supreme Being" or not (even though I do believe). I am just here for the game and to hang out. :)
And also just for the recod, Anytime somebody honestly thinks that I am being mean to them, just tell me. And I will see what I can do about adjusting my approach. No problema.
Love!

From Angelina's linked article:
I wonder how scientifically rigorous the studies in mikezila's cute little list were? I get visions of priests and docs fudging findings. With homemade fudge, of course. Store bought just doesn't have the same yumminess.
:) that was fun! You are an equal opportunity lender son, no wonder nobody can pin you down :)
Love you!

The propblem with God being real is that there is no predicability. And sometimes "It" works and sometimes "It" doesn't. There does not seem to be any ryme or reason to "It". :)
Hey Angel, I have "thread Jacked" your "Post!" :)
Love you!

God is "pretty much real!" :) I win! Even if it is the "booby prize" :) right Afinertouch :)
I think that one of the keys to "God is Real!" ,is being able to accept the fact that He might not exist at all or be real at all, but then Loving Him anyway. All kinds of productive things begin to happen when one reaches that point.
Love you guys!

Ah yes my friend :) but then the next thing that we have to question here :) is, "What rattles around in "your" head :) ?"
Your job is to "Rep the Godless", my job is find a way to "Rep God", even though the "Godless" :) have a valid complaint!
:)
Your turn Sir :) ,there has got to be some post number credits here some where :) you and I started out equal (for a minute you were actually ahead of me :) ). Actitivity is the life of a messageboard, we just do "Not"want to piss of the mods. After all there would be no messageboard (All Forums.net) without them. I love them! They define reality.
I love you! :) I just want to play.
Tucker58 looks into his own mind and wonders "Why/How can there be?", so much space!
Love you!

God is Real! I win! "Hell" even if God is not real, I win just for Loving Him :)
"Love" stimulates your immune system! Jesus was not that far off, if He was off at all.

Son, the challenge is to understand the other person's "Reality". If you don't understand the other person's "Reality" :) then you can't dink with it :)
Afinertouch, I wish that you were more complex. You are too easy. Sparky saw you coming and "pegged" you way back in the beginning. I am trying to slow things down enough here, so that you can be apart of/paticipate in what we all are doing here (minds at play). All members are a gift!
Everybody knows that "Reality" is an illusion :) what is your point? Oh :) unless the Admins say, "This is a reality :) !" There ain't no illusion to that one :) !
Love you!

Just so that there is no illusion/confusion here, Pinkster my friend, nobody who actually knows God, ever is absolutely is sure that He/She/It is real :) !
Ok? But I personally love He/She/It anyway :) !
Pinkster, I like your attitude also and I like the "feel" of your spirit. I also like the fact that you are not afraid of me. With you, I will always be gentle. So just kick things out there and we (and others) will all have a look at things. My only problem is, if anyone kicks you around, I am going to loose it. What ever that means :)
I love you and wecome to our lives!

Ah yes my friend :) "But were you pegged correctly :) ?" So far :) !
your turn :) You are sort of a flash in the pan with almost zip for creativity. But I also think that there is a part of you that can be cranked up and that you can be a player. It is just that you have never been challenged. :) We will see :)
Love you!
