Wrong. Typical midwit response.lol you could use this to prove anything
sonic the hedgehog has the positive property of speed, so he must exist
Reddit atheist copiumChristian apologetics slop copium
Well sonic does have all positive properties, but the proof above doesn’t require all positive properties. It works the same for just one.Wrong. Typical midwit response.
A hedgehog isn't a perfect being - have all positive properties
Nope. You can't infer a hedgehog must have the property of existence since it doesn't have all the positive properties. Whereas the perfect being by definition has all the perfect properties & since existence is a perfect property, it must have it alsoWell sonic does have all positive properties, but the proof above doesn’t require all positive properties. It works the same for just one.
1. is sentience a positive property if yes then how? what decides positive.
if no, then how is a non sentient non living god: a god?
2. replace god with flying unicorn and this proof stops workingeven apologists don't believe this
you are a fake philosopher whose beliefs are irrelevant.
your proof is proving the existence "perfect positive thing" but it also has to prove plenty of other characteristics of god like sentience and power over creation.1. That's irrelevant for now.
2. A unicorn isn't a perfect being...it doesn't have all the postive properties. Did you even understand the proof jfl. This is what I mean by atheists being midwits
There’s two parts of this — both of which are weasely: the definition of positive traits and the definition of god as having all positive traits.Nope. You can't infer a hedgehog must have the property of existence since it doesn't have all the positive properties. Whereas the perfect being by definition has all the perfect properties & since existence is a perfect property, it must have it also
The proof doesn't work for hedgehog. it will have negative properties & as such, being a hedgehog won't be a postive property (A3), so the proof will collapse
D1 is crucial
1. it is not irrelevant your proof is proving the "perfect thing" but it also has to prove plenty of other characteristics of god like sentience and power over creation.
a thing is not godNope. That's a further detail which will vary from individuals to individuals, religions to religions
The God of Aristotle for eg isn't merciful whereas the Abrahamic God is merciful
Here I'm interested in a minimal commitment to theism/godhead, which is sufficient enough to rule out atheism - which is incompatible with even the God of Spinoza - who isn't conscious for your information. He is an infinite substance with all perfect modes (properties) - extension & mind are 2 of them
I'm not interested in theology for now but philosophy
a thing is not god
a thing with all positive properties does not become god
god is by definition sentient
and i am not athiest you demiurge worshipping gayreek cuck
Spinoza's substance isn't a thing amongst things to begin with. It's a unique thing with thingness predicated with equivocation
This is retarded coming from people who can't understand Godhead must possess life, intellect (awareness/sentience) & thingness in a transcendental manner in order to be a source of them
So when we say God isn't a sentient being, we don't mean he is like some rock. We mean he isn't sentient LIKE US. There's a big difference here. You need to understand equivocal predication before blabbering

The D1 and A5 moves bring the weasel shit together. It’s just a linguistic trick that relies on slippage in the meaning of the word positive. D1 uses positive in the sense of good, but A5 uses it in the sense of affirmative. He’s hoping no one notices. But I noticed, and sonic does, too.
Yeah, he’s watered down the idea of god to the infinite. So it’s a pointless discussion. You can be an atheist and believe in some Spinoza plane of infinite immanence. None of this relates to god in the way anyone irl uses the word.but this proof is not about how his sentience is different than us
this proof is not about any kind of sentience or quality
it about the vague idea of a "perfectly positive thing" which is neither god in semantic nor societal interpretaion.

Nope. Jfl. Have you even read Spinoza? He explicitly denies being an athiest & regards all such readings as gross misinterpretation.Yeah, he’s watered down the idea of god to the infinite.

You got it the other way around. You’re doing philosophy. If you’re just going to define god as everything, then this just becomes an academic metaphysical discussion about whether infinity exists. It says nothing about any specific religion or theology.You are confusing theology with philosophy here. You can debate all day long on which properties are postive & how we must understand them (univocal, equivocal, analogical etc)
But this has nothing to do with the ontological proof. All it attempts is to prove the existence of a perfect being, whatever perfection happens to be.
You may claim existence isn’t a property (like Kant) or that perfection isn't a postive property & that would be more relevant than whatever retarded objections you are bringing.
this is how i expected your shitty cuckness reeking response to be likeThis is a perfect midwit response. It comes from a failure to deal with abstract modal reasoning

and what does positive even mean here, god like being possesses positive characteristics with respect to what?You got it the other way around. You’re doing philosophy.

Yes, and Spinoza said that because he was writing in 17th century Netherlands. That still didn’t stop his contemporaries from thinking he was a heretic for watering down the Christian god to an infinite plane. If you’re just talking about the infinite, you’re doing philosophy.Nope. Jfl. Have you even read Spinoza? He explicitly denies being an athiest & regards all such readings as gross misinterpretation.
He regarded his infinite substance as a perfect being worthy of contemplation - worship in Spinoza's sense
He was an acosmist to put it more clearly
What else are you supposed to do as an subhuman incel?imagine arguing about this bs WHILE YOU ARE A KHHV SUBHUMAN INCEL
He wrote that in a letter to his friends. It wasn't even meant for public consumption or publicity etcYes, and Spinoza said that because he was writing in 17th century Netherlands.

Gödel is being weasely about the meaning of the word positive. Op is taking all positive properties to mean everything that can exist.and what does positive even mean here, god like being possesses positive characteristics with respect to what?
Yeah. I always feel sad when I remember the divine Emperor Julianchristcuckanity destroyed great rome.

Yeah. I always feel sad when I remember the divine Emperor Julian![]()
Yeah, I know. You’re arguing about the existence of a metaphysical category. No one uses god or religion in this sense, though. They mean a specific god in a specific theology. I might agree that infinity exists, but that doesn’t mean I have to believe in a Christian or Greek god.He wrote that in a letter to his friends. It wasn't even meant for public consumption or publicity etc
And
There's no reason to think only the Abrahamic God is the perfect being. Most Greek philosophers would have never accepted the anthropomorphic Christian God, a God who loves & punishes, all of these would be regarded as defects
Yeah..I am doing philosophy & philosophical religions have always existed, since ancient Greece
divine emperor julian who left the virtuous religion of ancient "latium" to worship god of naked olive oil drinking shitskins from greeceYeah. I always feel sad when I remember the divine Emperor Julian![]()
"God" is an imaginary character, a fairy tale character, a thought; he does not exist, has no shape, no physical properties, you cannot interact with it
At one point, this imaginary thought / character did not exist, and at some point, this imaginary thought / character will disappear from collective memory of humans, because it is created by people, and exists only in people's minds
"No physical properties" - jfl especially when physicists can't even decide what is physical
Physical might as well be indistinguishable from non physical, as was pointed out by none other than David Hume, one of the greatest empiricists
So deal with the proof instead of pointless digressions
jfl especially when physicists can't even decide what is physical
Go read Hume on materialism vs immaterialism, then talk to meBro is about to tell me that 1 + 1 doesn't equal 2 because whatever just because it doesn't support his narrative..

Very low IQ response. You have failed to distinguish the content & designation of a proposition from the mode in which it is expressedA1 is already a leap because postivie/negative are judgements not properties. dnr the rest
