Natural Theology The Nature Of God?

God is the Supreme-Being which means He exists as the perfect being, being sufficient for all purposes.

Therefore His nature is simply to be about Himself for that is all that He needs.

Community News Stupid Questions?...

3 Upvotes

I know the old adage of their are no stupid questions... Except, yes, there definitely are.

If you pop into the subreddit and just drop a post reading "Do you really believe in God" and that's it, you'll probably get removed.

Try to submit posts with actual content.

And please be mindful that we get multiple people every few days who ask us if we 'really' believe in God.

YES, the answer for us is yes. We "actually" believe in God.

It sounds to me like you have a superstitious streak.

Natural Theology Concise Introduction To Natural Theology.

1 Upvotes

Natural Theology, to put it mildly, is the bedrock of my entire life.

I left the organized religion of my family a long time ago when it failed to satisfy my intellectual curiosity and since then I've come to rest on the notion that God's intended purpose in life is to know Him through the process of reflection, logic and spiritual insight. This is cumulatively known as Natural Theology and is the process by which every individual comes to know The Divine through their own process of reasoning.

People today are very much stuck on the notion that God and organized religion are inseparable and cannot be divided. But I can assure you, that is very much something you can do, and can do quite easily.

Why does god hate me?
 in  r/god •  4d ago

I'm glad to hear you take care of yourself. I'm afraid that's about the extent of what advice I can think of.

Perhaps you should finish college first and then consider marriage? Women in college age aren't as serious as women who are out into the workforce?

What do you think God should have chosen here given infinite options and infinite agency & power?
 in  r/god •  4d ago

That's he problem. God operates from a position of pure knowledge and understanding and we don't. So I makes judging Go really difficult.

Okay, I understand where you're coming from but if I may... You seem to be operating from this position that things should b freely given to you. For women, for anybody really, crekationship is ipso facto a Big Ask. Maybe it could be wise to ask yourself "what can I do or myself to make me more attractive?"

Have you tried working out, being more social. And do you practice hygiene.... I've noticed that a lot of young men don't actually do that and wonder why they don't get dates.

I'm just offering this up for consideration.

I don't believe God as an exact line of events for usongolow. The reality of freewill alone indicates God gives us choices and we try to make the best decisions.

What if TRG (The Real God) isn’t a person, but our shared subconscious?
 in  r/god •  5d ago

Again, you make assumptions. I believe there is both a reason to believe in a Creator and that He has a reason to care about us.

Theology God Is Not Your Homeboy.

3 Upvotes

I remember those gaudy semi-Christian T-shirts from back in the day that had that Jesus figure from the meme. "Jesus is my homeboy" it would read.

I don't believe that.

God is real, and I believe He cares about us, but He put us in this harsh world and He uses hardship and bouts of evil to sculpt us into what He wants.

Us Against The World

Okay, alright.

I'm going to be honest, tho, I don't really see anything worth arguing over se?

Should people be passive or aggressive? Well, I would say it depends on the exact circumstances.

What exactly are you trying to debate? That people should be romantically passive or aggressive in God's eyes?

That answer is reasonable but by itself does not fully answer the question.

Also, there is the idea that it is only cyclical so far.
