major pain;1424333 said:"Baphomet" is mostly a man made construct that has been attributed arbitrarily by many different people to evil. Information from its origin to its current "concept" is laughable at best. The "church of satan" basically started using it as a symbol and now all of a sudden its the "go-to"image for all things evil. At least in American society.

In a cult that sacrifices goats to the Baphomet post.

Honestly, same thing.
BiblicalAtheist;1424688 said:I don't agree. Man may be a part of god and god a part of he, but to say they are one in the same I think is in error.
ThaChozenWun;1424697 said:What are things that separate the two?
BiblicalAtheist;1424711 said:Our lack of wisdom, lack of understanding, lack of ability to create(we only manipulate or discover what is already here). Our inability to obtain supreme consciousness, our inability to withdraw to no-thingness.

How do you know it would have these?
Perhaps they are attainable after death.
then theres the "well god cant be the only thing that can create from nothingness, because it would have been created from nothingness"
Because everyone has a different version of what "God" implies. So there is no true god, it comes in all variations.BiblicalAtheist;1424953 said:I don't really understand what you're asking? If god didn't have these things, why would it be called god?
But then wouldn't be we have to able to be the ALL? How wouldn't we do that?
But when has there every been nothing? Come on now, we go through this every few months, energy has always been. It just may not always been in form, sound or light.

I personally blame God for these things. Who's your scapegoat?

IMO we are able to be all, we lost our way though.
Well for a "God" to have infinite wisdom, complete understanding, the ability to create, etc... I think everything would have to have had a beginning and an end. To create something there had to have been a nothing before, if you're saying the pieces were there, then man creating steel beams are the same as a gods work scenario, only on a smaller level, taking something we have already known to exist and making something new from it. It might be confusing, but right now I can't think of another simpler way to say it.
