If any one reads the Phoenix Journals, then invariably s/he will choose to conclude that the Journals are the WORD. Then, one will understand that GOD IS. MAN PLACES LIMITATIONS--GOD HAS NONE! Here are some highly relevant quotes:

Oh wow, I hadn't even realised quite how unhinged you truly are Jag! So some delusional lunatic posts about how he is an inter-dimensional being and you, what, just believe him?

Is that how it works or are you claiming there's actual evidence that he is an inter-dimensional galactic commander?

Sir,
We are all human here; there is no need to be abstract, especially when I can see that your philosophy is absurd. Quantum Mechanics understanding is not so important as understanding the nature of your personal responsibility, but God gives you all truth and free will so that you can come to understanding with regards to any subject.

If you are using the premise that no one understands quantum mechanics to assert a conclusion bearing on human knowledge, then I am afraid that your argument is lost on me. Materialism is disprovable on philosophical grounds; you can see that the materialism of Dennett, which you promote, is refuted by Nagel's common sense; kindly reference the Kurt Gödel quote and the article about Nagel, preferably in full from the source.

As for the mind:
If you propose "telepathy", then your explanation falls under the label "super-psi"; this "super-psi" hypothesis is discussed in the literature behind the AECES top 40 cases and elsewhere in parapsychology.

Actually, the "Quantum Parapsychology" page on FB helps one to understand QM, so does this link (and others), and so too with the best-tested theory of consciousness in science (Quantum Consciousness, which denies the doctrine of ones such as Dawkins as per my earlier references Chopra and Nagel), and there are also many references to accurate knowledge in Phoenix Journals; therefore, it would seem like a good understanding is to be had by reading these sources:

Quote
Let us not damage ourselves because of perceived ridicule and stupidity of this limited civilization.
Ask any blind person if it would not make living far more pleasant and easy to be sighted.
I do not expect to have you understand what I am talking about if you are not a scientist and, if you
cannot believe except through the brain of a scientist--you are going to be locked into the limitations
of your anti-civilization consciousness. Sounds big and a bit "far-out"? Yes, but it is not further than
between your eyes, and perception is totally a thing between your ears called MIND.

You must come to understand the true MEANING of "existence". What is existence? Well, readers,
when you understand the true and REAL meaning of "existence" you have the "everything".

These things are known to be real by sheer common sense; the fact that materialism rejects them as the effects of solely physical processes seriously undercuts the ideology’s ability to make sense of the world.

Quote from: Richard P. Feynman. _The Character of Physical Law_. BBC/Penguin, 1965. 129. Web. 21 Apr. 2015. link=http://www.eng.fsu.edu/~dommelen/quantum/style_a/botline.html
There was a time when the newspapers said that only twelve men understood the theory of relativity. I do not believe there ever was such a time. There might have been a time when only one man did, because he was the only guy who caught on, before he wrote his paper. But after people read the paper, a lot of people understood the theory of relativity in some way or other, certainly more than twelve. On the other hand, I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics.

3) Atheism is incompatible with science because a brain that was produced by natural selection would have evolved to enhance survival not apprehend truth and it would not be a reliable tool for understanding anything.


Quote from: David Konstan. “Epicurus.” _Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy_. 2014. 22 Feb. 2015. link=http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/epicurus
[Epicurus] regarded the unacknowledged fear of death and punishment as the primary cause of anxiety among human beings, and anxiety in turn as the source of extreme and irrational desires.

Hyperreality is the “abridged” physicality utilized by the brain in such a way as to enhance the human animal’s capacity to serve the Anunnaki.

In the same tone as given to me, sir--get your intelligence out of your assets and come into the professional maturity of the task at hand.

I represent the One LIGHT, the One Source, that One who was honored as the "sun" being, meaning LIFE SOURCE and, in Egypt at the time of reinstitution of the ONE GOD CONCEPT (Creator of Life Capability) was known and recognized as Ra or Aton. What there is that is so difficult to understand eludes me--you seem to be very willing to accept horrible little monsters, grey humanoids, lizards and serpent-people!! Or, is the GAME to discount the very promise of GOD ETERNAL--TO BRING YOU THE TRUTH IN WORD AND SEND MESSENGERS AT YOUR TIME OF EVOLVEMENT AND POSSIBLE DESTRUCTION IN SOME KIND OF PLANNED ARMAGEDDON?? Or, did you think God would come and do these things through Jim Bakker or Bill Clinton? People, I DO NOT CARE WHAT YOU BELIEVE--MY JOB IS TO BRING THIS WORD TO THIS PLACE AND YOU CAN DENY IT, ACCEPT IT, HOPE IT RIGHT, WRONG OR FOLLOW THE PIPER--THAT IS YOUR BUSINESS, YOUR SOUL AND YOUR CHOICE! DOES EVERYBODY UNDERSTAND ME? I DO NOT TREAD ON YOUR BUSINESS--AND I EXPECT THE POWERS THAT CONTROL YOU TO MEET THEIR AGREEMENTS WITH ME! WHAT THEY DO WITH THEIR OWN SOULS, IF THERE ARE ANY PRESENT, AND WHAT YOU ONES DECIDE TO DO WITH YOUR EXPERIENCE AND EXPRESSION--IS UP TO YOU. I AM GOING TO, IF YOU GET TOO ROUGH, GOOD BUDDIES, TAKE GOD'S PEOPLE OFF THE PLACE
--AND IT IS NOT GOING TO BE A BLUE BEAM RAPTURE OR A BAPTIST RAPTURE.

I offer this material humbly, and hope that you have the patience (or skills) to read through the truth about man and god.
I know that it is difficult to discuss knowledge outside of an empirical context, but the Phoenix Journals deserve discussion; I personally have found it highly valuable to use the content-source problem as a framework for evaluating the truth of the Journals; check out these papers:
THE CONTENT-SOURCE PROBLEM IN MODERN MEDIUMSHIP RESEARCH
THE PROBLEM OF SETH'S ORIGIN

May you have grown in KNOWING in that you can feel and see the beat of the marching feet of GOD’s troops--in the reality of that which IS and beyond and into that which WILL BE! The fate of your nation, all nations, and your planet depends upon that which YOU know and come to understand--and within the actions in intelligent wisdom.

There is only ONE “REALITY” unto which to awaken and that is unto LIGHTED GOD OF CREATION--for you are experiencing in expression manifest--that thought of God which is actually THE DREAM. When you truly awaken unto reality it will be beyond mere measures to change of your neighbor or your government or even the adversary--for you will find that ALL THAT CAN AND WILL BE CHANGED AND AWAKENED IN SELF!

So, will all mankind be awakened? You have no way to know that which is a souled being from that which is not--so why effort to sort--GOD SHALL DO THE SORTING--you must do the discerning within the experience so that ALL may receive and then there shall be no problem for you, will there? If, however, YOU do not believe or serve in total presentation--how can you expect “another” to receive? If you do not hold in thine depth of reality--truth of your beingness--you shall be tossed and turned upon the waves of doubt until you “downfall” for only physical expression is based upon doubts and fears of the Reality of GOD CREATOR!

Username18333, Please also consider the reference and points of John Lennox as to the absurdity of atheism; it is hard to make sense of the world under the materialist hypothesis.

Nagel insists that we know some things to exist even if materialism omits or ignores or is oblivious to them . . . It doesn’t explain, for example, why the world exists at all, or how life arose from nonlife. Closer to home, it doesn’t plausibly explain the fundamental beliefs we rely on as we go about our everyday business: the truth of our subjective experience, our ability to reason, our capacity to recognize that some acts are virtuous and others aren’t. These failures, Nagel says, aren’t just temporary gaps in our knowledge, waiting to be filled in by new discoveries in science. On its own terms, materialism cannot account for brute facts. Brute facts are irreducible, and materialism, which operates by breaking things down to their physical components, stands useless before them. “There is little or no possibility,” he writes, “that these facts depend on nothing but the laws of physics.”

These things are known to be real by sheer common sense; the fact that materialism rejects them as the effects of solely physical processes seriously undercuts the ideology’s ability to make sense of the world.

Quote from: Kurt Gödel
I don’t think the brain came in the Darwinian manner. In fact, it is disprovable. Simple mechanism can’t yield the brain. I think the basic elements of the universe are simple. Life force is a primitive element of the universe and it obeys certain laws of action. These laws are not simple, and they are not mechanical.

I certainly hope that you and others who are reading will take the responsibility to check out these references for yourselves, then you can decide if that truth is "VALID".

Readers and listeners--this is YOUR story entwined with mine only in the higher level of soul journey unto Source. I, as teacher/guide, act as conduit for knowledge and that knowledge MUST come in a manner which is acceptable in perception of that which IS. Prophets tell of “that which shall come to pass”--mine is more the bringing of understanding of that which “has passed” and a display of those things which have borne you “up” or “pulled you down”. These are things unneeding of “faith” in the seen or the unseen--but writings of truth that your perception can handle that which IS and make your directions fitting for journey through THAT knowledge. COULD I be a prophet--indeed and so I AM; however, a prophet but speaks of that which will come and, lest you change your manifested expression--that which will come has already been written for this “play”. Mine, then, is to allow you to see that which is unfolding in a way that it MUST be seen in Truth--not illusion of “wishes”. Fantasies are those thoughts of imaginings upon which unreality is based--dreaming in perspective unto that which can be in experience is the thought through which NEW directions and manifestation expression can be achieved--indeed, MUST BE ACHIEVED. If man focuses his creative thoughts in oneness of “thought unity” the form creates itself. I am your co-experiencer--but you are the physical aspect, at this time of travel, which must function as the “doers” for man cannot understand reality otherwise. If ye be honest and true in your INTENT IN DIRECTION AND SERVICE, you wish it not otherwise for you have come TO DO IT. I am that which guides and responds and will bring you safely into port.

In most instances if your brother who does see and we who speak out, do not point it out unto you, it is missed and the gallows are sprung in your unknowing and misery. Indeed, chelas, if ALL were PERFECTION--there would be no need for the experience. Ponder it.

If a man REFUSES intentionally to recognize his Source and the Laws as absolute (not voted-in to suit physical expression and luxurious comfort and physical senses), then that becomes between that individual and GOD and is not your business. You do not judge--but neither do you continue a wrong-way journey--IF INDEED YOU ARE SEEKING HIGHER UNDERSTANDING, FREEDOM, AND GOD. FURTHER, ALL THINGS IN ANY PHYSICAL EXPERIENCE MUST BE HANDLED FOR THE BEST AND HIGHEST GOOD OF THAT WHICH REPRESENTS THE HIGHEST CAUSE. BECAUSE OF THE FREE-WILL STATUS OF “MAN”, CHANGES MUST BE MADE, SOMETIMES INSTANTLY, IN THE FOCUS ON THE GOAL OF HIGHEST CAUSE TOWARD TRUTH, LOVE, FREEDOM AND GOD.

13 planes, though the 13th is what most of us would call "death"; they exist as planes of the mind structured in consciousness - to fill the space in consciousness between physical and spirit, they are termed Planes of the Mind: Word, Association, Reflection, Logic, Spontaneity, Result, Fantasy, Correspondence, Depth, Integration, Empathy, Universal, Death...

You can't prove between science and religion any more than you can tell someone to prove they don't exist, it won't happen not from the indent in reality; but for the desire of such entity to see only that which it wants to see.

First, we must all recognize that Scientific explanations do not rule out explanations at other levels.

Hi username18333, I suggest you take a close look at this link, because your arguments are not making sense to me...

5)  The difference it makes is that valid =/= sound.  Unfortunately, your argument isn't even valid because we already know with absolute confidence that Intelligent Design/God falls outside the scope of empiricism, and therefore you will never have empirical proof.  

Hey 'joint', you said that you would be happy to read evidence, so why not read Hatonn and see if there is anything which is not-true; as for me, I am still waiting for someone (anyone) to adequately address the observations presented in the Eisenbeiss case. A rational person can see that this case is strong evidence for the survival hypothesis, and that explanations grounded in fraud/deception are not supported by any evidence. As you can see, there is very strong evidence in favor of the afterlife, and belief in the afterlife is scientific.

To prove that all atheists are mistaken, it is enough that I point to the observations which strongly support the survival hypothesis. Any atheist (humanist) can provide adequate reasons to reject the evidence, but none have done so. Similarly, I can refute materialism by pointing to the latest knowledge in molecular biology which asserts that "life is more than just complicated chemistry".

"It seems to me immensely unlikely that mind is a mere by-product of matter. For if my mental processes are determined wholly by the motions of atoms in my brain I have no reason to suppose that my beliefs are true. They may be sound chemically, but that does not make them sound logically. And hence I have no reason for supposing my brain to be composed of atoms."--J.B.S. Haldane

So please read Journal 36 and also read "Marriage of Sense & Soul", where you will find these quotes:

"you will find, in this adventure, that the scientific method will never be left behind in the search for an ultimate ground"

"from the in-sides of an astonishment that has no boundaries, an answer begins to suggest itself, and whisper to us lightly. If we listen very carefully, from within this infinite wonder, perhaps we can hear the gentle promise that, in the very heart of the Kosmos itself, both science and religion will be there to welcome us home."

"what is required is not a new monological science or a new dialogical interpretation, but a genuine method for directly opening to translogical contemplation, and no 'new scientific paradigm' whatsoever has been able to make that offer"

A good review of this book (with a link to the author's reply): http://www.integralworld.net/sense_fv.html

And a choice quote:
Quote
"science is more a certain attitude of experimentation, honesty, and collaborative inquiry, and it grounds its knowledge, wherever it can, in evidence."

Simply stated: to make a scientific discovery, one first has to (1) follow some instruction, then (2) do an observation, and (3) compare this to those of others, who have also followed the first two steps.

In E.O. Wilson's "Concilience" (pg 126-127), you will find this quote: "Our deepest nature is unbounded, pure awareness. Neither the material nor the consciousness aspects of life are primary, as both continuously arise from the underlying Meta-universe. The continuing existence of the universe around us depends upon the unbroken generative power of the meta-universe (Whose Essence Is Pure Awareness)"--this quote is talking about GOD, the ONE POWER, ONE SPIRIT, ONE BEING, ONE LIGHT, etc.

Wilson also says "It is important to note that consciousness is always connected with an object of knowing."

I note that Kant made a similar conclusion many years ago:

Quote
The field of philosophy... can be reduced to the following questions: What can I know? What ought I to do? What may I hope? What is the human being? Metaphysics answers the first question, morals the second, religion the third, and anthropology the fourth. Fundamentally, however, we could reckon all of this as anthropology.

These authors demonstrate the kind of collaborative inquiry that builds knowledge.

Also, you can read the conversation between Einstein and Tagore, and also watch "Deepak Chopra Essential DVD Collection" for related ideas.

Yes, I do think that I am making progress in explaining my rational faith; for example, I have provided a reference to the "content-source problem", which will allow one to scientifically evaluate any inspired text. If my beliefs are not sound, I would naturally want you to supply evidence in that regard.

Also, I have done more reading and found that atheism is logically absurd:

"Atheism is incompatible with science because a brain that was produced by natural selection would have evolved to enhance survival not apprehend truth and it would not be a reliable tool for understanding anything."

"Thought is replaced by electro-chemical neural events. Two such events cannot confront each other in rational discourse. They are neither right nor wrong. The simply happen ... The very assertions of the reductionist himself are nothing but blips in the neural network of his brain. The world of rational discourse dissolves into the absurd chatter of firing synapses. Quite frankly, that cannot be right and none of us believes it to be so. "

"A third way materialism undermines science is that it makes a priori metaphysical assumptions in favor of naturalism that artificially limit the scope of science."

In this post:
1) Belief in God, the creator of natural laws, does not conflict with belief in science, the study of natural laws.
2) Belief in religion and spirituality is enormously beneficial to the individual.
3) Atheism is incompatible with science because a brain that was produced by natural selection would have evolved to enhance survival not apprehend truth and it would not be a reliable tool for understanding anything.

This thread is now full f the shittiest explanations for the existance of God, no scientific proof whatsoever

There is no proof that there are constellations. The groupings of stars that we call constellations can be grouped by anybody in any way that they want. Stars in many (most) of the constellations are not near enough to each other to suggest that they should be grouped together.

In fact, there is little proof that stars exist at all. You have heard of dark matter. A bunch of scientists made up a bunch of stories and a bunch of math regarding what stars and dark matter are. Yet nobody has been close enough to any star - even the sun - to say for sure what it is. And nobody has even sent space vehicles close enough to any star other than the sun, to even SUGGEST what they ACTUALLY are.

Perhaps the ancients were right. Perhaps dark matter is the blanket with the pinholes. Perhaps the light coming through the pinholes is the light from Heaven (whatever that is).

The star wobble that we see, that we interpret as planets moving around some of the stars, might simply be some kind of space/aether aberration that hasn't been identified yet... at least not to the public.

Prove it, one way or the other.

Smiley

You just went full retard, never go full retard. Like are you seriously questioning if the sun exists of if there are other stars? Are you just a troll? Because damn

Now it seems to be you who are going religious. Since there isn't any way to prove that stars exist in the standard way we think about them, who really knows what they are?

The closest thing we can do is recognize that God exists - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.10718395 - and then try to see if He has any explanation for us as to what the stars really are.

Smiley

No way to prove the stars exist? Dont we see the sun? With our own eyes actually. We can also feel its heat. Do you really need more proofs than that? I mean i seriously dont understand your point, serious question are you trolling?

We see something. We call it the sun. So, the sun exists.

We see something that we call the stars. The stars exist.

We see darkness around the stars. We call some of it dark matter. Dark matter exists.

What they all are is a big question. The sun may be different than the stars. The stars may be pinholes in the blanket of dark matter. Who knows? We have lots of observations and theories regarding the sun, the stars, and maybe even dark matter. We have no proof, although we may be close to getting some proof about what the sun is.

Smiley

0/10 troll

To those who want to believe lies, others who point out the lies they believe, seem like trolls to them.

People who point out the lies that others believe, seem like trolls to those who want to believe the lies.

We don't know what the stars are. We don't know what dark matter is. All we have are a bunch of ideas and a few theories. Most of it doesn't fit together very well. Wake up and see that you are believing science fiction. The ideas and theories are nice stories, but we don't really know to what extent they are truth.

Smiley

But we definitely know god exists right? And we actually know what stars are http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star
We definitely know that God exists. See https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.10718395.

We definitely know that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star says what stars are. We do not definitely know that it is the truth.


Quote
We dont know if dark matter even exist and no one says it is a fact so i dont know what are you trying to say
There are those who say that dark matter exists.


Quote

'Ideas and a few theories'' ''most of it doesnt fit together very well'' Im pretty sure all our ideas about stars and gravity and everything else works almost perfectly

When you look at the information about the stars being electric plasma rather than nuclear, you see that the common modern theories do NOT fit together very well, and that more than likely we are way off base with our common theories. See http://electric-cosmos.org/indexOLD.htm.

Smiley

Im sorry 0/10 troll you dont accept that kind of proof but when you show your "proof" of god existance wich is just a bunch of lies or fallacies if you will, then you defend that pile of shit posting it every 4 posts when no one, not even the religious people in this thread agreed with it

The point is to compare our 3D existence to 4D or 5D.
These forces can't be proved, described, understood any more than a 2D could understand 3D; for it will always be a cross section.

Bitcoin is just the beginning of people realizing we are the creators of reality, finally we figured out we can create our own money; what's next  Wink

xD? How high does it go?

People operate with a focus on 3D. However, they themselves may easily be many dimension higher, spiritually. This is the reason science recognizes the existence of consciousness without recognizing that consciousness is beyond mind and brain, beyond 3D.

Extrapolating the dimension idea, how far do we have to go to extrapolate dimension into God? Or is God beyond dimensions? Perhaps He is both, dimensional and extra-dimensional.

Similar logic can be applied in "proof" as 2D "proof" of a 3D sphere can only be a circle Wink

It is this way with government. All government is paper >> 2D. The 3D part is people using the 2D. Without people, government can do nothing. The question is, what right do some people have to rule over other people, since all are people >> 3D?

The closest thing that we have to 2D becoming 3D is Bitcoin. However, even in Bitcoin, the 2D has been put together by the 3D.

I don't know about God but the universe sure as hell is designed to make your life horrible.

Optimist Creed

Promise Yourself...
To be so strong that nothing
can disturb your peace of mind.

To talk health, happiness and prosperity
to every person you meet.

To make all your friends feel
that there is something in them.

To look at the sunny side of everything
and make your optimism come true.

To think only of the best,
to work only for the best,
and to expect only the best.

To be just as enthusiastic about the
success of others as you are about your own.

To forget the mistakes of the past and press
on to the greater achievements of others in the future.

To wear a cheerful countenance at all times
and give every living creature you meet a smile.

To give so much time to the improvement of yourself
that you have no time to criticize others.

To be too large for worry, too noble for anger,
too strong for fear, and too happy
to permit the presence of trouble.

Prove your thoughts and emotions exists, wait, we can't.
All we can do is map the EM activation patterns in the brain to show us physical correlates to such emotion / thought.

The same is with the Source.
Science is just beginning to understand with the "Heisenberg uncertainty principal" which ironically shows us matter reacts to our awareness of it, wouldn't this be deemed more "certainty"?

As to "prove" god exists, that's like saying prove that this picture of a 3d sphere I drew on a 2d piece of paper is a sphere.
It isn't a sphere, it is a 2d representation of a sphere. The same is how we perceive "deities" from a 3d earth.

I like this post.

Although it's somewhat semantic, I've coined a phrase: "What one knows, he cannot prove.  What one can prove, he cannot know."

The reason I say it's somewhat semantic is because I'm talking specifically to claims made at a 100% level of confidence.  I can say, "The Sun feels warm" and know that claim to be true, so long as I directly experience the sensation of warmth from the Sun's rays.  However, there is no way to prove to someone else that the warm sensation exists.  I could take a thermometer and measure the temperature of the Sun's warmth and determine that it is "warm," relative to something else, but this just means that we are substituting evidence which indirectly suggests the Sun's rays are warm for the direct knowledge of the Sun's warmth experienced first-hand.
