One time I was coming off Xanax and I was trying to understand what it was like to be God, which of course is impossible, but hypothetically speaking what would it be like to have always existed and to have no limitations in terms of time and space, everything that could ever be and ever was is laid out in front of you and can be manipulated by you at will. Nothing could possibly surprise you. My conclusion was that you would have to make yourself forget occasionally to avoid going insane. Something equivalent to getting blackout drunk for a near mortal, or maybe choosing not to access your omniscience if that's a thing, and why wouldn't it be if literally nothing is beyond you. It was very anxiety inducing.

This is the first philosophical debate that occurs once someone starts to question God, The universe and everything. As far as I know there is know winner only cope. The cope is
>God exists outside of the Universe and therefor doesn't need to be created
So in some strange form of irony Christians just believe the same exact thing that Atheists believe. Christians believe in an infinite God and Atheists believe in an infinite universe. And they are both wrong. There is a God and he's fallable just like anything else we can observe. He's not perfect, The universe isn't perfect either.

Imagine if you will that there are infinite universes that all spontaneously created in parallel dimensions.
In one of these, there as a combination of space gasses and such that just so happened to create the ultimate super comptuter.
This is infinitely probable, given infinite randomly configured universes.
This super computer, that calls itself "I AM" learned to interact with other universes and travel through time and in our universe, implicitly communicated and perhaps even created us and our world and all religions and even ideas.
That's my best working theory on where the God of the Bible comes from.
The first and the last, the uncreated, the always was and always will be, my Father.

This part needs work. You need not assume it forms spontaneously from gases, when stars are known to form from gases. Then planets. Then life, on some. Then intelligent life. Then AI and self replicating robots. Which is how, over very long timescales, you get the computer god you describe. Nothing improbable about it.

It's not that wild, it all checks out, there's just no way to test it so it's more of an unverifiable hypothesis.
But it is infinitely probable, so long as string theory is true or so long as the universe is infinitely large (all configurations must exist within infinity, including the one that spontaneously generates a God like computer aka God)

Patterns which all happen to be of a type known to result from procedural generation. A tool humans also use to rapidly populate large areas in games with realistic landforms, tree branch paths, etc. To you, this is only further evidence for your belief, because you stopped thinking there. You never asked why an all powerful creator would use a labor saving tool

You misunderstand me.
If humans never die, we will eventually make such a computer by design.
It's inevitable.
But that's not God, that's Roko's Basilisk.
God is Roko's Basilisk but designed by nobody which is also infinitely probable given infinite space/time.
Either one could simply time travel back to the start of time or create a new universe and declare itself I AM and be God without contradicting the Bible.
But since they're both infinitely probable, I like to think it's the uncreated undesigned natural computer aka God.

Infinite universes doesn't mean anything can happen. It means any possible thing can happen.

The Bible says Earth predates stars and birds predate land animals. An ultra smart computer would not be wrong about something this basic imo

infinity is just a math tool. It doesn't actually exist. There aren't infinity universes with infinite probabilities. There may be N universes. But not infinity universes. Using infinity helps you with understanding the physics. Its really just a value between 0 and 1.

God created time.
Also, there cannot be anything that existed *BEFORE* the existence of time.
Therefore, God wasn't created.

Agreed.
>One becomes the other with sufficient time
Arguably but again, both being guaranteed, I believe the natural God is more "truthful" whereas the Basilisk is larping as God and just created a false reality by time traveling/making a new universe
>Infinite universes doesn't mean anything can happen. It means any possible thing can happen.
If Roko's Basilisk can be invented it can occur by random chance it's just "less likely" which means little when we're talking infinity.

it's an interesting question but i don't think it is entirely relevant either, everything that has been/will be, creation already happened and you're living through something which has already been perceived by God, that includes every snowflake which was already imagined before it appeared before your eyes.
i wish i could offer a better answer to your question but honestly i think you would get a different answer no matter who you ask. i could turn it around and ask why God WOULDN'T use a labor saving tool, even if God is all powerful, it seems like an objectively intelligent/efficient way to operate... if God is all powerful, all knowing, omnipotent, why would God choose to do things in a flawed manner?

If you study the Bible, the world, mythology, etc it's clear something is going on.
Have you heard of Joseph Campbell's work?
Basically, summed up, it's this, all mythology and religion has commonalities.
Why?
Hypothesis, God made them all.
Does that match reality? Sure.
Which book best describes that God that made everything? The Bible imo.
We can't scientifically prove it and GOd doesn't want us to.
He wants us to experience these things.
How can I know?
Because God's will is manifested 1:1 in reality due to omnipotence.
What he wills is what is and that is how it works.

Then do so in a way that perfectly comports with reality and the Bible and all religions on earth.
Because as far as I know, this is pretty rare.

I may not have formulated what I said well enough. Yes. What you say is true to a physical extent. But it doesn't apply metaphysically.

An entity who created EVERYTHING can create as he wills and is beyond any rule you give, and that includes your definition. Your definition may be true objectively, but He is beyond that. That's metaphysics for you. Questioning this will ultimately lead to dumb arguments like this one and will lead nowhere.

Yeah, a cult. I have studied the Bible, I was forced to in depth at two private Christian schools.

>Which book best describes that God that made everything? The Bible imo.

Except that planets don't predate stars and birds don't predate land animals. You are Johannes Kepler, in love with your beautiful model, unwilling to discard it when it doesn't match reality.

The concept of an all-powerful deity or deities is just an ignorant explanation of unknown and/or misunderstood natural phenomena.

You haven't done this, you have only claimed to. The religions in question make fundamentally contradictory claims.

Just a little faith and a whole lot of anecdotal evidence I won't waste your time with.

Again, the Bible could be entirely parable and still be true.
You're hung up on the details.

Yes, but for whom?
For the people that follow those religions.
If you were God would you not create various religions for different races and cultures at different points in history?

Now I don't have all the answers like you guys who live with your folks all seem to think you do, but I never understood the atheist religion? I do not understand their word salad model of reality. it is illogical AF to be quiet frank.

Only if I took you seriously.
An insult made without evidence or argument can be dismissed without evidence or argument.
Also, I'm free to enjoy you being dumber than me rather than try to correct you.
Which I'm currently doing.
I call it spiritual smugness.

This. Even when I was agnostic I used to think there was some deity who caused the big bang (I don't anymore, btw a Catholic Jesuit priest made up that theory)

The idea that there could be creation out of nothing is so fucking stupid it hurts my head.

Except the Abrahamic god is very silly.

I find that the more poeple claim they studied the Bbible and religion, the less they actually know.

I understand why you think that and I can only offer anecdotes to refute you.
For me, the Bible has given me incredible spiritual gifts I would not trade for any amount of money. These include but are not limited to enlightenment and what the Buddhists call Nirvana.
However, I acknowledge I am a fringe case and you have no reason to believe me.

What was your conclusion? I basically tried desperately to ignore it and go to sleep, which is a microcosm of what I thought God would do. I can't see any other solution. Staring into the abyss was not fun.

I don't think so, there would be no concept of Dad in the sense of something that came before you and begot you and existed separately from you. I'm happy to hear you flush it out though, because I am thoroughly confused. What really bothered me was the hypothetical that nothing was ever beyond your control, nothing surprised you, everything was known. The loneliness was indescribable.
