Let's Talk About: Demonic Possession & Exorcisms

[zombie]

How are they short sighted? You are here the same way I am here. We are here; mankind is here because of past actions, causes and conditions that shaped our current existence.

But what caused these current conditions? do you believe that the universe and everything in it always existed? if you do that is called the solid state universe theory and that theory has been proven wrong by science.

So if unicorns don't exist, its gonna pretty hard for me to find proof of it not existing, in fact, the lack of proof is the proof.

The difference between god and a unicorn is that one has a frame of reference a unicorn is a horse with a horn on it's head you can describe it in physical terms the same goes for santa the easter bunny and anything man can accurately describe. the same cannot be done with god.

Religion has made the attempt to describe god enough to base a system of faith and following. The descrptions are obviously enough for you to trust that he exists but instead of a unicorn or physical entity, we could replace it with any spiritual being for comparison

No, you cannot compare the two. you cannot compare something that is graspable to something that has no relation to anything physical. Unless you have experienced the un-physical how can you describe it. and even if you do experience the un-physical you can only describe it in physical terms. all Things we talk and think about has a relation to some thing else that can be described with our senses. religion described god's reactions to man and the universe but not god itself, anything else you can put in a box but not god.

I'm not the person that describes the un-physical. Theists generally do that so those questions are really for you to answer.

If everything we talk about exists in relation to something else, god must exist in the same way. If he does not, how are we to be aware of his existence?

God is every thing.. God is every where.. God is in everybody.. and at the same time, God is on his thrown.. you cant go nowhere to escape God.. you cant hide.. God is there..

the reason you dont believe that is because you cant grasp the concept of a power being capable of doing such. i know, its crazy what a amazing God we have.. you should really get to know Him. you will be suprised in the ways you will change and how life will change, and how everything will look different living in the light and not with the lights off.

This is how I see you two are babes in christ, the least you could have said was "well is there any proof for the mind? can science locate this thing we refer to as 'the mind'?"

No one can describe the un-physical hence no one can describe god in the way we can describe a unicorn. God is not a thing so he does not exist in relation to anything else so we cannot talk about him like we can anything else, it is impossible. We don't really talk about god what we talk about is mankinds reactions to what we perceive of him. He exist on the power of himself. EVERYTHING WE TALK ABOUT EXIST IN THE PHYSICAL WORLD HAS A RELATION TO SOME THING ELSE BUT GOD IS BEYOND THIS WORLD.

lol again...

so your a believer in evolution.. so what did we evolve from.. some species of the ape family.. and what did they evolve from.. and so on and so forth.. then go back to the very 1st species (we are just using your logic here.. or illogics.. ) go back to the very 1st species.. now how did that VERY 1ST species get here...... and everything else in this world... universe.. dont you find it amazing how everything in the universe is connected.. kind of like how everything in this world is connected.. we all need everything in the world.. like it was meant for us to live here.. kinda crazy right? kind of like we were put here for a reason... and whoever put us here gave us everything we needed to survive and grow as people.. not creatures.. but as people.

Well I do believe in evolution but I also believe that life has always existed in some form or another. However, in our current world system, to prevent confusion, we can compare consciousness to a fire. It is simply an effect, caused by the right conditions.

I do not believe that the universe was created for our benefit. On the contrary, we evolved from its being. I do agree with you, though about everything being connected. That is why we must live in harmony with nature.

To put it simply, I do not believe in a first cause. Everything is here or has been here or will be here because of something else. It is an infinite chain of causes and effects.

If by "the mind" you mean human consciousness then no science has not definately found it but some do believe that it is in the brain. THis whole thread boils down to two viewpoints : 1) the universe is both physical and un-physical, man exist as both, in which case things like life after death experiences and heaven hell and astral projections of all sorts become reality. 2) The universe is all physical and reality is what it seems man's " mind" is nothing more that chemical reactions in the brain and nothing else.

If man is both physical and unphysical that that means man can be divided a body can be made empty and then filled with the mind of something else for example a demon.

I believe that existence has always existed, whether that existence be a past universe that caused ours to exist or some other cause or condition. I believe nature has no beginning or end

you are free to believe that but many scientist and believers in god would disagree with you.

I don't think youll find many scientists that will tell you there was a point where true nothingness existed indefinitely. Most scientists if not all abandoned the theory that nothing existed b4 the big bang

i question if you really believed nature has no beginning or end because you cant explain how or where we came from.. so to spare you the embarrassment of saying we came from a big bang, you just swiftly came up with, "i dont believe nature has a beginning or an end".. now if you really believe that is the question at this point.

 

[zombie]

I don't think youll find many scientists that will tell you there was a point where true nothingness existed indefinitely. Most scientists if not all abandoned the theory that nothing existed b4 the big bang

IF YOU GO BEYOND THE BIG BANG YOU WILL END UP in m-theory and it's maddness. At which point scientist are really guessing.

 

[Bodhi]

I believe that existence itself is an infinite chain of cause and effect. There is no first cause or all mighty god. Scientists will always be in an endless search of what came before this or that, in their limited scope of infinity. It would be a waste of my time to tell you what came before us, when there was something else that preceded it.

Your argument is flawed because you do not know from what or whom your god came. If your god has no beginning or end, there should be no problem for you to understand that nature has no beginning or end.

They will always be guessing. There will never be a point where man knows all. Like I said, existence itself is infinite

the nonnnnnnnnnnnnn sense science creates. i love how people who believe science back it 100000% as if its true.. they latch on to those theorys as if they are golden.. then when scientists come up with new theorys and methods or what not.. those science believers just change their beliefs with them lol a bunch of non-stable, un-certain, un-sure, but KNOW ALL creatures atheists are lol

The universe is not infinite. The big bang theory has been and still is the most observable science based and sensible explanation of the creation of the universe. THE other ones like string theory and m-theory are not as observable and are far the fuck out when you think about it.

The universe always existing has been disproved.

It's a shame your point was totally missed in a hell bent attempt to discredit what you said.

Your response does not answer anything I said. what makes you believe I'm unstable? Or is that just something you fall back on when you have nothing left to say? I'm certain about my beliefs, which I have shared with you unless someone or something can prove otherwise.

how are you unstable? you have no idea where where we came from.. how we got here, or why we are here.. your answer is "i dont believe nature has a beginning or an end".. please. you dont possibly believe that.. your answers scream uncertainty.

and what makes you think i have nothing left to say? i been here since page 1 lol. you just got here and my tank is still full. but you not making no points, nor debunking anything. you havnt even given me a legit answer about ANYTHING.

 

[Bodhi]

Where does your god come from?
