Quote from OPTIONAL777:
If God=Totality, then why do you separate the two?
I don't separate the two. There are two parts of one statement.
First part: Totality exists.
Second part: I believe in God...
Only one statement though, not two statements. On statement containing two ideas. One is a product of reason, one is an experience of personal faith.
They are not separate, they are together.
Totality exists and I believe in God...
Now, if you agree that Totality exists, and if you believe that God=Totality, then you agree that God exists...
Whether you then have faith in God is an entirely different matter...
"Here's the odd thing. Op777 is convinced that totality exists but only "believes" God is totality.
That is not what I wrote.
I wrote "Totality exists and I believe in God..."
Quote from killthesunshine:
ok, i'll bite.
Totality is your product of reason.
God is your product of faith.
Let's start with Totality since you reasoned your way there and we both agree in the veracity of reason.
Please share your reasoning to this conclusion that "Totality exists"
Quote from OPTIONAL777:
Imagine the possibilities.
Ultimate reality is there is only one thing.
Ultimate reality is there are more than one things.
Ultimate reality is there is no thing.
In every case, there is Totality.
A Totality of one thing, a Totality of more than one things, or a Totality of nothing.
So Totality exists.
