It is like asking me if i am, "willing to step past my dog construct" Hi Walker You said these bits so how do you reconcile real with imaginary.

On 12/25/2020 at 12:24 AM, Mr Walker said: know they exist. god is just a name humans give to a wide category of beings Imaginary or real, I know dogs exist and have known many but have never met your god That neither one of us thinks is a god and only one of us believes it's real so I don't have a problem for not having your god construct as real entity but you make a distinction that I would like you to develop and express properly for the sake of discussion. jmccr8 Edited to add Forgot this wasn't your thread so may take this up there as we are not asking an atheist Edited December 27, 2020 by jmccr8 added context 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Real exists outside my head, with elements like perception also existing inside my head. eg my wife, or my dogs, or my "god" imaginary exists totally within my head eg my 3 breasted amazon alien It is absolutely easy and simple to tell the difference. If you dont believe my god is real, and i know its real, then NEITHER of us BELIEVE its real What distinction are you talking about ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
