Did men create god?

Isn't 500 threads a day enough for you people?

Literally no one on this board that is either an atheist or a theist has had their opinion changed here.

Can a god laugh himself to death?

i converted to sunni islam in 2015 because of this board

no

/thread

Yes. It couldn't be more obvious. He's basically a human.

there is no way to prove it one way or another so why fuss over it ?

Men created all gods except the one I worship. That one us real obv.

I hope you die just for joking about that.

Wow, the influence of the board is even worse than I thought, then.

Because we can still talk about what's more likely.

Yes.
Let's talk about the non-obvious now.

I converted to Catholicism this week partly because this board got me interested in it, and I read up on it and now I'm Catholic

whoa, those two months must have been hard for you

I'm curious what you read about it that convinced you?

On the first day

God created man who then created their own god as well as realizing God

>Did men create god?
Honestly, what the fuck does it matter?

Simply not true. I've seen it happen.

no
God made men

But that's heresy

>said the fag following >H>R>E tier bullshit

Most likely. God/gods was an easier answer to explain what was unexplainable to early man.

Yahweh reads exactly like the psychological personification of a retributive Jewish tribal power fantasy more than he does an omnipotent creator who is cryptically revealing himself.

I'm going to say 'yes' I think.

God created Man.
Yet man's capacity to conceive of God has changed according to time and place.

Yes, as a way to give order to the chaos they perceived the world to be

I've given serious thought about leaving Islam for good because what I've read here. It's going to be a very tough road ahead but I'd like to think that I'm prepared.

No. The weaker Other created God.

God has and will always be a symbol for that which has the highest power. The moment there was hierarchy in the universe, the lower end of it perceived God, and the higher end became God.

The God that the Abrahamic religions speak of today is the darkness, the void, nothingness. There is no other boundary to life than nothingness; only nothingness sits "outside" of life. In the earlier centuries of humanity, nothingness was fathomed as the origin and the unavoidable destination, where we came from at birth and where we will return to upon death. It was an enlightened circle who dressed this void up in the robes called God, having understood through reductionist intuition that this nothingness was somehow great and eternal, always present and pervading all things, and could be a great nurturer if one lived in accordance with it (which is what life of the ascetic aims for). Via reductionist intuition, it became understood that only nothingness truly existed, because all the rest is temporal, and our language could be broken down until the "many things" disappeared from view, and the "many things" are destined to return to it.

Cue the Pagans, the Greeks and Nietzsche. The true enemies to the Abrahamic system, where life instead was God, and nothingness was seen as the true absurdity.

May I pry?

Hundreds to thousands of completely contradictory gods throughout history says, yes.

Yes. Next thread

How does everyone not notice this? He doesn't sound godlike in almost any sense of the word

I command you all to tell lies about God.

God always sounds like God.

You just don't hear Him speak.

They're all way ahead of you.

His existence is an objective thing-in-itself.
