/sci/ what do you think life would be like if we lived in a Godless universe?
would chaos reign supreme?
what if God created us and the world and then just disappeared, what do you think the laws of physics would be like?
i know we'd have no Shakespeare or Milton or Newton or Einstein, but what do you think life would be like?

please only real answers

Well, religion was the inspiration for all of our early art and music, so we wouldn't have any of that. And without God there is no moral standard, so everyone would just go around doing whatever they wanted. This is the utopia atheists dream of.

Air actually is observable, and wind measurable.
>no order, no law, no morality, no beauty or grace
Can you quantify order? How about law? Morality? Beauty or grace? Order and law can assume scientific definitions, but you are most assuredly using them in a useless and meaningless colloquial sense.

The inspiration for art was the Christian religion, which does require a god to exist. You lose.

I'm out of my element on /sci/ but I'll post this anyway. I'm sorry if I use the wrong terminology, this isn't something that I think about or discuss much in my everyday life.

People who ask for proof of God have always bothered me. It isn't because I'm upset that they would question his existence or whatever, but for other reasons entirely: they assume that human logic is flawless, that humans have the capacity to fully understand God (or gods), and that everything can be proven scientifically.

I mean, it has always been my belief that if such a being existed that he would be entirely outside the realm of our knowledge or our capacity to know. Like, we think/know he's there but we're much too primitive or whatever to know for sure.

Like I said, I apologize if I come off sounding retarded for using the wrong words in places. This isn't meant to be a troll post but a legitimate concern of mine.

So we can't possibly ever prove or disprove him? Then it's absolutely useless to even think about it.

>> No.2637157

It would be impossible. In the sense your that you're using however, it would be intolerable. Life would become pointless. Remember, most of the universe you will never physically explore. The question would be better phrased as, "in a Godless world." Without God, all change relies on the Government. With God, people have something to turn to, and can gain equal power to speak their mind and make their own decisions. A Godless world, would be okay, if Satan didn't exist. However, Satan does exist, it just has formality veiled on top. Its funny how quickly people forget that they're economic slaves, and if money didn't exist they wouldn't have to work a pointless 9-5; and if civilization didn't exist they would be in the harmony of nature, experiencing the true wonders of life.

Godless universe:
1. Okay if no Government.
2. Not okay if Government.

(Only in the sense you're using it thought. A Godless universe is impossible.)

The christian religion does not require the existance of a god. In most cases, it only requires the belief in one; the simple notion of a divine spirit. In the rest of the cases, it only requires an adherance to code of conduct belonging to christianity, but not so much of the belief in one. If those artists weren't christian, they would have done art anyway, and art has been done long before christianity, and even without an impetus of religion in many works.

Great thread, OP.

>> No.2637221

What would be the difference between a religon in a world where God does not "prove" his existance, but require some leap of faith, in a Kierkegaard-ian sense, and religion in a world where there truly is no god, but where the believers still made the leap of faith. Would anyone know the difference?

You're an idiot. Satan is Humanity.

You'll never go to heaven because you are a human, and therefore evil.

You are a soulless abomination!

>> No.2637259

Wait, in your scenario you say he created the universe and disappeared. The universe appears to be doing just fine on its own right now without unexplained divine intervention. Either way, why would this prevent people who believed God from existing? Just because there are no such thing as imaginary friends doesn't mean that the kids who believe them no longer exist.
