if there is indeed a creator of everything that ever existed, it doesn't exist the way we think it exist and calling it a HE HIM or a WHO is putting limitations on anything that has the power to Create everything that ever existed in the whole universe
to me God is the Everything, so like the whole universe could be God's thumbnail. I definetly see it along the same lines as the human body. Like you were saying with the sperm in your one post. The essence is there all along, but you grow and all these cells build together to form your body. Your consciouness remains in your head but white blood cells is roaming around like soldiers warding off infection, air moving into your lungs extracting oxygen. They don't need your actuall awarness to function, and it almost seems as if they have a life all of their own. I view it working in that kinda way. On the same token, I don't ever judge if I had a bad toenail that should be damned to being eternally shot with a nailgun so if everything in relgious text didn't turn out to work the exact same way they say, tht doesn't surprise me either. Does God exist as a singular form? it's good question. I'd have to see if form actually fits the concept in my own head.Quote:
why does it have to be single if it does indeed exist ?
yeah, this is truth to me as soon as I read it. I like how the Quran calls God by a bunch of different titles, it would be nice if She was used as well. I don't see God really as femine or masculine but having properties of both. The God in my mind has no limitations whatsoever.Quote:

--------I don't know if this is going to show the number but in the case of 2a-the essence of something, I would say that the Supreme God does exist as a single essence just because nothing really exist that is not God, in a God's body kinda sense. We might get an invading disease but our cells would eventually kill it. There can be something forgerin within the body, the body itself belongs to the Most High.
I'm with you there. But like, what I meant was it was a theory i'd heard form somewhere or other, and I believe it had something to do with higher intelligence playing a part in our evolution, pretty much. Whether it's true or not remains unseen, it's not actually my opinion, I was just providing another angle. Amateur philosophy, if you will.Quote:

lets restart here.
do we all agree or disagree that there are only ywo types of "things" or "planes of existence"
1) Material
2) Abstract
lets start with that..
^you'd have to define what you mean when you say abstract for me to answer that.
abstract meaning, having no physicality, ie existing only as a concept...in its strict sense.. having no physical or detectable impact on the material world.
by that definition I would have to disagree on your original question. I say this based upon belief more than what can be proved as scientific fact. I believe in the soul, for instance, which isn't material but at the same time I would say that a person's soul can definetly have an impact upon the material world. Humans in general are limited to their own perception. Things are hard to deal with outside of our five senses. I do however believe that things exist outside the realms of our own perception, that for lack of a better word, more tangible than things like emotion, thought, etc.
