I don't know the definition or attribute of God.
One only attribute I think a god should have to someone that is capable of creating us.
What makes you think anything “created” us.

Give an example of this god “creating” anything.

Give an an example of how this god “creates”.

Aha! Here we go grin
1. What if 'god' is actually a tiny and weak entity that cannot create any being?
2. Cant you see your theist background is influencing your definition of this 'god'?

I don't think anything created us. I'm agnostic.
Theists think so, since I don't have evidence against it yet, I cannot outrightly reject it, especially the deistic concept.

I think that anyone who should reject it should clearly demonstrate to us with a counterevidence.

This is illiteracy, theists don’t think so, some theists think so especially among monotheists.

My definition of God is something that created everything. We have so many concepts of God that are not creators, but I'm not interested in them. I'm interested in that one that is capable of creating everything.

Stay on that topic

Your own definition of “God”? 😂😂😂

We don’t have many concepts of “God”, god is an English word that means what is “libates upon”.

Your own definition of god 😂😂

irrespective of what you use to arrive at a god, it's something that is capable of creating what we see today.
I decided to look up the word god for perspective and clarity.

1. (in Christianity and other monotheistic religions) the creator and ruler of the universe and source of all moral authority; the supreme being.
2.
(in certain other religions) a superhuman being or spirit worshipped as having power over nature or human fortunes; a deity.
"a moon god"


I noticed you took up the Abrahamic definition, which makes me think you still have some theist thoughts lingering around.

get me right. So you don't go around what I am not really arguing for.

I don't care about all concept of gods, I don't care about the Christian God or Thor or zeus. If it's about these gods, I will be an atheists.

The particular God that is making me an agnostic is the deistic god. If you can not address this particular type of God, then you may not get anything from this argument. Whatever you say may not be relevant to me

There are many concept of gods, depending on one's delusions. It's why we have amadioha, sango, yahweh etc with different attributes. I don't care about these guys.

I'm interested in demystifying the deistic god. Should I tell you bout it so you can be a bit foucs?

Youre further deepening your hole.
You haven't proven the existence of this 'god' yet you're sure there is a creator god. Isn't it interesting?

What’s so special about the theistic or deistic claim that you can’t outrightly reject it?

What evidence do they have of this creator?

What kind of “evidence against it” do you require?

Do you treat all baseless claims like this?

No there are not many concepts of “god”.
God means what is libated upon.
“God” is an English word that has his origin.

What you should be asking is what qualifies a thing to be a “god”, there can not be answers because the DEFINITION OF GOD IS BASED ON BELIEF TO START WITH.

When you realize your delusions you will know that amadioha, sango, and yahweh are as real as your deistic god.

you should present a counter evidence because that's how science works.
It's why atheism is not scientific.
In science, once a scientist makes a hypothesis, it's really not necessarily the scientist that needs to validate it.
An example is the darwinian theory of evolution, Darwin made numerous observations and created a hypothesis, Darwin did not necessarily provide testable evidence for it. It was years after he died that other scientists validated it.
Lamarck didn't provide any evidence for his lamarckian hypothesis, scientists were testing his hypothesis for Years and then disproved it with evidence from darwin theory.

Deism comes from Deus.
Yahweh is also a Deus.

You can’t demystify it because nonsense is nonsense. You can’t make it clearer, you can’t simplify it, you can’t make it less vague because it’s nonsense.

we have scientific fact that a human can not cause thunder, it's a fact. We don't have scientific fact as to whatever start or how the universe started. It's why a diestic God question remains very open

it's not nonsense until you disprove it. Like with evidence of how the universe started and a creator was not involved else it remains a possibility.



This is not science. Making wild claims without evidence is not science. Wtf?
in science, we make claims without evidence a lot, it's called hypothesis. Don't you know how science works?
Albert Einstein general theory of relativity was a claim for Years until proven with evidence.
Albert Einstein static universe hypothesis was a claim that we disproved with evidence.
The difference with science, is that while so many claims exist, we only make the ones we have evidence for a fact and never become close minded to those we don't have evidence for or against yet. That's why atheism is flawed and not scientific until we truly demystify deism.

I don’t have to disprove anything. You make an extraordinary or nonsensical claim and I reject it outright. I don’t have to say anything but call it nonsense and it’s up to you to prove it. However, I KNOW FOR A FACT that you have no evidence and can’t prove anything because your claims are nonsense. I also know it’s utter nonsense because I can make the same wild claims and would consider you gullible or stupid for entertaining the possibility that it’s not total bullshit.
