"That there is no truth; that there is no absolute state of affairs no 'thing in itself This alone is Nihilism, and of the most extreme kind. " ~ Fredrich Nietzsche
If you can't avoid attacking me personslly while you are complaining about me allegedly attacking you personally, you should probably just keep it to yourself.
So here I can simply state I don't confine to the most extreme kind but I won't. I will instead say can you demonstrate to me that I am comparable to the extreme kinds of nihilism? I'll wait."That there is no truth; that there is no absolute state of affairs no 'thing in itself This alone is Nihilism, and of the most extreme kind. " ~ Fredrich Nietzsche
?Yet, here you are identifying yourself with the doctrine of negation.
Nihilism is atheism, pure and simple. The denial of absolute truth or ultimate reality
Still hasn't answered my questions. Ad-homs and pretty much calls me the denier. Deflecting from his well stale position that God exists because the definitions said so. No what caused the big bang no infinite regression can't be possible angle instead defaults to 3-4 words. This clearly reeks of anti-intellecutalism and note this isn't an ad-hom because it is the best representation of your position.As you are a nihilist, it would be foolish of me to try and prove anything to you. It takes an awful lot of denial to come to the nihilistic conclusion.
Besides, if I did prove something to you and you believed it, you would cease to be a nihilist.
So God is not creation in your mind. Okay you have just admitted it is nothing. People who even think about it in their mind are wrong. Glad to know that.What you call intellectual is simply creation. The Ultimate Reality is God, not an explanation.
Why is The Ultimate Reality God? Because that is what we mean by God. Can you think of anythingg else more worthy to be called God? Of course you can't, but it matters little. This is what we mean by God.
There is nothing even comparable to God. I tell you, God can not be circumscribed, not even by the mind. I believe in The Incomprehensible God. The One True God. The Supreme and Ultimate Reality.

Are you saying the argument is good?Also known as, "the ontological argument". Spinoza makes an airtight case.
Also known as, "the logical necessity". Kant makes an airtight case.
Unfortunately neither Spinoza's nor Kant's solutions are compatible with the modern concept of "YHWH".

Unfortunately neither Spinoza's nor Kant's solutions are compatible with the modern concept of "YHWH".So they can't make a case for the current interpretation of the Biblical God?
(IFF) you don't know everything (THEN) there are things you don't know.(IFF) a human mind is incapable of knowing everything (THEN) there are things you will never know.
(IFF) you don't know everything (THEN) there are things you don't know.(IFF) a human mind is incapable of knowing everything (THEN) there are things you will never know.How can this be a case for deism? For all we know there is simply a causal reality before the Big Bang that explains everything without the need for a single entity to start it all.
....still doesn't explain all that "rule-book" stuff.I mean, if god is unknowable, then how could bronze age fiction writers compose a rule-book about it?
Are you saying it is necessary for the deistic argument?It's a case for the logical necessity (NOUMENON).
Are you saying it is necessary for the deistic argument?
Okay I understand.The case for a logical-necessity is the only case for DEISM.

You are letting yourself be fooled by an illusion.There'll never be closure on whether God exists.It's an open ended question and we will never truly know the answer.
I whole heartedly disagree.The Ultimate Reality by necessity exists. The position that there is no ultimate reality has no ground to stand on.
There is an ultimate reality, and you don’t know it. None of us do.
