Your god is a lie.
Behind every God there's a human afraid of death.
And so is your gender.
Every action has something that started it so that means something had to start the big bang, and that was God. If we look at history then we can see that Jesus Christ was the most important man ever alive and changed the entire course of human history. Many people witnessed Jesus' miracles and that he rose from the dead 3 days after his crucifixion. This alone is enough evidence for the existence of God and why we should believe in Jesus Christ, but there's even more incentive to believe in Him. If we compare the afterlife for atheism and Christianity then we can see that being an atheist and finding out that God exists will make sure that you end up in hell, and if you're correct then nothing happens. If we compare this with a Christian finding out God does exist then they will go to heaven, and if they find He doesn't exist, then nothing will happen. The average Christian will also have a much better outlook on life rather than an atheist, because the bible teaches many good morals, and knowing that you have eternal life and a God that loves you is a very good thing to believe in compared to a nihilistic atheist that doesn't believe in anything. Going to church also gives you an opportunity to meet people and to be in a community, which many people lack nowadays.
Mortimer and Adler are the shit. Legit one of the best books I've read in my life.
based. Every scientism believer / edgy teenager is in spirit a nihilist. Eventually the emptiness sets in and they decide to its time to "find themself". Which fails ultimately, because they see no higher than human causes, neither of them worth living for.
>ible teaches many good morals
And the bad ones we just don't talk about, right? It gets a pass simply because that's the one that you were born into. Oddly enough, that's the same shitty excuse that every other religion uses. Funny, eh? Maybe there's something here...
>he thinks stoning homosexuals and genociding hittites is """"immoral"""""
Based, christian god is made by ~~*them*~~. You know who pushes for this shit
A God can exist, though Omnibenevolence and Omnipotence are impossible and do not exist

Third post underage post
After spending a lot of my time on software design it really made me more in awe of how God was able to do complex system designs of the biological human body, the "game engine" (chemical and physical laws) of the universe... all compiled and deployed into existence through His will... all abstracted away in the heavenly source code (if there is one) that no human being will truthfully understand what works underneath the abstraction layer of what was made. Programming only made me realize how insanely complicated systems are and the sheer insane complexity of the real world really screams there had to be intelligent design.
It smells like the sort of systems you get when you try to evolve them. You can let loose quite a dumb algorithm on e.g. chip design and eventually it'll gradient descent its way into some far too clever solution that doesn't make any sense on paper but takes advantage of interference with adjacent wires or ambient radiation or whatever
This kind of immense complexity screams a lack of intelligence to me, it's the kind of thing the universe comes up with on its own by just blindly trying stuff. Obviously if you were literal God you'd be smart enough to handle this immense complexity but you'd also be smart enough to do a bit better than that, to not let humans and bats accidentally lose their vitamin C genes when they ate lots of fruit for a while. Evolution uses an enormous amount of inventiveness to think only a single step ahead
That's how I see it anyway
>anyone who says they know The Truth is mistaken
is that true?
hume is one of history's greatest hacks. now please kindly frick off back to r*ddit
>ITT: [Post your favourite philosophy book because I'm sick and tired of hearing the same 3 IQfy memes over and over]
Why didn't you say so anon? That being said, for me, its this IQfy meme.
Him and Nietzsche are the most widely misunderstood pop philosophers of our time. They're just too irresistible for the catchy zingers they bring to the table.
AI theory is fricking boring and gay and I don’t want to work in AI. Frick AIgays.
My professor said "AI is the field where everything useful in eventually got its own field." He lectured with that book.
I'm confused, do you recommend this book despite not caring about ai or are you advising anons to avoid AI in general including this book?
the best introduction to Assembly
Maine Camp or whatever the frick they call that one
ITT anons who think programming makes them big brain individuals who require big brain philosophies. Coding is a fairly easy endeavor so stop pretending you're special for it.
>t, mathgay
ITT very intelligent and philosophical anons that happen to code
There brother, I fixed it for you.
A lot of philosophy tries to make sense of very ordinary non-special things
Programming isn't special but like a lot of other things it's hard enough that everybody fricks it up
>A lot of philosophy tries to make sense of very ordinary non-special things
(you) problem. It means you're reading bullshit or reading based but are moronic.
Just get a basic book on logics and a toy like Legos or whatever
Philosophy is meme, i don’t know why anyone takes it seriously
