like imaginary friends, Evan

God for me is impartial, setting out a set route - but He would still place individuals in the afterlife He choose for them - i think of it like some grand joke - to believe in Christ is to believe in some intervener, some sort of intercessor to guide my consciousness to some place else, instead

edit :- I started this thread on debating about neuroscience and God being in the brain, but it sort of devolved into another theosophical debate

Sorry, five year olds wouldn't comprehend

I think it turns out you're the most inane person on this forum. You post things that sound intellectual on the surface, but in reality, once you remove all the pedantic fluff the things you say often make little-to-no sense.

So:

Supernatural beings are "ancient archetypal structures" (whatever THAT means) that we repress in our minds, becoming unrepressed through "symbology"? Is that the gist of what you're saying? Can you explain what "ancient archetypal structures" are and what you mean by "symbology"?

I guess if you had more than a 6th grade education you might know what I am talking about.



Look it up, why would I explain anything to you with an attitude like that?

Cool ad-hominem, bro.



Because we're in a discussion forum and you brought it up? Do you seriously expect us to google everything you're talking about just to follow along with your inanity?

Way to overlook the first mud slung from
I don't expect to be berated by someone that is clueless about what I am speaking of. Do you follow?

LOL. One night my five year old son heard my wife say a quick prayer. He said "You know mummy god's just in your imagination."

yeah, that's what I started this debate for

is there enough empirical evidence that God merely exists as a vehicle of neurology? that the God experience is purely of the mind?

or is there really "something" out there?

or are neuroscience and God mutually exclusive non-magisterial subjects?

Is it a mud-sling? I suppose it would be, if you considered yourself some great philosophical intellect. And it may be the case that you are, indeed, a great philosophical intellect. You posted a thought (the "archetypal" thing) that I could not make sense of, so I politely asked you to explain it further. You sarcastically shrugged off my request, so I'm doing nothing other than calling you out on your crap.

You know the old adage, "if you can't explain it to a five year old, you don't understand it well enough"?
