Can you not understand that believing a falsehood may contribute to evolutionary fitness?
I agree with you. Why do you imply so many things about me that I never said? Stop twisting everything it’s annoying.

Can we not utilize this falsehood better by understanding its true nature, that it is a falsehood?
Finding falsehood and truth is a Godly pursuit, yes.
Give me an example of how this looks though?. If God is truth (He is) then it is fully supported by God to discriminate falsehood from truth. It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter(Proverbs 25:2)

You are denying your Christ the full benefit of his abilities by asserting him as a fact.
Denying Christ by denying that he is the Truth, The Way, The Life? Explain how Jesus supports us denying him. Obviously I can’t assert him as fact because I’m a man asserting the truth of the divine. But I personally believe in him 100% and if you look deep within His mysticism, His way, His word, You find love, peace, joy, mercy, wisdom, family, trust, faith, forgiveness, which I suppose are my virtues I strive for but also the ones God wants us to strive for. That’s exactly how Jesus lived, Nietzsche labeled Jesus as a true Übermensch and went crazy later on in life trying to live life denying him.

Despite the overwhelming evidence from authoritative sources(NASA, Navy, Harvard, CIA, Soviets, renowned PhDs, professors/etc), this will always be an uphill battle convincing the masses, friend. It’s just too inconvenient to be true, too many people love their social media. It’s a disease. I’m personally looking to make a layman box or at least go camping significantly more often than I did before.

Anyway, thanks for posting all the sourceS, I provided my little 3 sources. Shows how little I knew prior to the thread! I appreciate you and all that you do. I’d buy you a buy if I could! Fuck!

Stay safe and sane out there.

You got me! Can’t do that just as you can’t give empirical evidence for a lack of god. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence right? So I’ll stop. Sorry for wasting your time. I just gave you the information because I genuinely believe that following Jesus leads to a better life. in terms of omnipotence, things like Bell’s Theorom and Tesla’s dynamic theory of gravity lean towards the universe not being purely material nor predictable. Just my 2 cents!

If you’re curious about your current temporary phase of atheism/nihilism look up Marcia’s and Erikson’s stages of identity formation.

Since being born in The west in the 21st century we have a proclivity away from god, it works from the top down. If you’re curious check out the 5 systems of bronfenbrenner's ecological theory on how the cultural milieu of your time is leaning people towards one end of a pendulum swing. This isn’t the first time in 2000 years that everyone thinks god is dead and it won’t be the last.

Have a nice weekend and stay warm in the so called Snowpocolypse!

This isn’t meant to say “Gotcha! God is real because I quoted some dead European dude!” It’s to make it clear that things are not clear. Since they won’t ever be clear, I’m just recommending to read the books, that Jesus is a pretty swell guy and was probably smarter than you and I.
