The means you give it. But I meant the opposite of beggars belief. Asmodean: I don't know how you could possibly know that!
I just go by the definitions of knowing and believing. There's a subtile difference you probably are aware of.
Bodies are all destined to disintegrate in time, I don't see why people believe we will still exist in a form if the form that holds us here today will disintegrate into dust. I don't know if dust has much reasoning. God isn't much more than a word. We impose order on a seemingly chaotic nature, and when a hurricane strikes, suddenly it's tragic because nature destroyed the things we built over a piece of nature we at one point destroyed, in aims to build the things that make us feel like life has 'order' and 'purpose'. So why not have a God too while we're at it? Anything to relieve existential anxiety, right?
catagorically , the nothing is unknowable . still , it has a curious sub-set intersection with the simple unknown . the idea that god is the All is rather open-minded respecting potential knowing . the adventurous can be obsessed with potential knowing , which is the vastness . a soul can get lost and crazy out there , and the primary guide is philosophy . it reasons potentials . does your philosophy touch the wildness of unknowable .
tikoo: The idea that god is all imputes too much, and not enough to what remains an idea. In adventure, we cast ourselves out upon our vastnesses, we join the lost for a time, never distant in our love, that we reach our wilds, that the unexplored reaches out for us in the very reaching. Potentials are never truly reasoned in us, not in our poetry, our nature, which supercedes all prognostics. They are either seized, or lost in at least as much as what they were. Believing in god has never directly helped anyone! lol
Invoking good cause contributes to causing good conditions. Living in a world of condition, we meet the conditions we speak for or with.
having a religion with multiple deities assists the world of idea . they are relational aspects . one time i ask my old dad about his philosophy , he just says well ask away . so , dad , philosophy asks 3 questions ... what's true ? he replies god what's knowing ? he repies god what's good ? he replies god to have received a more interesting weave of relationships i should've addressed his philosophy of farming - reference : a spiritual farmer's special deity , the corn angel .
In creating good conditions we're already their good cause. lol Well, how could it with oneself always as intermediary?
We only ever really invoke ourselves. To have one of us be god alone would be cruel to that one, and to ourselves! Mean nature always dissolves itself. Knowledge is being shared as you say, as opposed to disseminated!
