WOTM: Omniscience
Hey Gang! I hope everyone has had a terrific month. My health issues are still dragging me down a bit, but we're figuring things out... hopefully. I'm not doing too bad. So no worries.
I thought I'd expose everyone here and on YouTube (eventually) to my OCD/ADHD with this video. I've been wrapped up a bit reading and thinking about Omniscience and I just had to get this stuff off my partially shaved chest (had to wear a heart monitor for two weeks — hope that's not TMI). More than anything, I just wanted to expose how silly it is to claim any being has attributes about which no one knows a damn thing.
Thank you all so much for all your continued support. I can't begin to tell you how much it means to me. But I'll continue to try as the night goes on. Enjoy!!! B

Catching up after a long absence. The opening reminds me of one of my questions: why does every religion have a detailed biography and dossier on their deity-thingy? Where does that come from and how could they know? It reminds me of the old whiskey ads on the back page of magazines back in the 70s. You may remember the ones that list their hobbies and past-times, always ending with "drinking Dewar's Whiskey," or whatever the brand. That's why I refer to scripture (anyone's) as an overly long whiskey advertisement.
"IF" your 'god' is "Omniscient" Free Will can not exist . . You are a puppet . . a player in a 'divine plan' . . . When I present that to christians who claim to have Free Will . . they get very quiet . . you can see the clutch slipping . . .
I'm a mathematician but can't keep up 😂
You can't understand God's omniscience, B, becasue you are only someniscient
And how about the Bible stating "In the Beginning ..." - sure sounds like linear Time to me, before Creation.
Well, yeah, except… 🎵“He knows when you are sleeping, he knows when you’re awake, he knows if you’ve been bad or good, so be good for goodness sake.” 🎶 What 🐂💩!
If this . . . thing . . . were really omniscient it would have no reason to ever test a human being, right? It would already know whether or not you would pass the test. In addition if it were omniscient, it would not need omnipresence. It wouldn't need to be anywhere to eavesdrop on what we were doing or saying as it would already know that. And it certainly didn't need to be "there" to act as he made all those trillions of galaxies so far away so no distance limitation on his actions. I wonder if these people think through their claims.
Love it! I especially like all the “before time” phrasing! Truly the English language is not designed to address such things. 🤣 The god has always known all its own actions, as if there was an eternal list that it must helplessly execute!
LMAO! Bravo!
“Truly, you have a dizzying intellect…” 🤣💚
