Why do I disbelieve in any deity?
Googles: definition of deity
“a god or goddess (in a polytheistic religion).”
Okay… apparently another word for god. (I saw that coming.)
Googles: definition of god
- “the creator and ruler of the universe and source of all moral authority; the supreme being.”
- “(in certain other religions) a superhuman being or spirit worshiped as having power over nature or human fortunes; a deity.”
Now we got a word definition with a bit substance to work with.
Creator and ruler of the universe? How do we know that? I seen zero indication of a creator or ruler of the universe beyond “talk” by humans. I see nothing getting “ruled.” On a grand scale. I seen lots of people ruling over other people, quite often proclaiming themselves as gods, but examination of those people show me they are just people like me and everyone else I know.
Source of all moral authority? Umm… what!? The human brain is obviously the source of human morals. No human brain no morals. Or, I can even: drug or even physically interact with an exposed human brain and change morals of the person, (or groups of persons,) based on whatever biological, and or chemical and physical interface I used. Woah! By distributing powerful psychedelics to a group of persons I make part of the definition for god?
Supreme being? What a useless and vague definition. I can only guess what that really means. Most powerful “being” (whatever that means,) that can affect us? Well, if our sun so much as “burps” in our general direction, the planet earth’s surface gets wiped out (and so do all humans.) If a black hole came to our tiny speck of the universe, it would wipe out our sun, (and us,) supreme being?
Super human being or spirit worshiped? Oh, so if a bunch of people are convinced their is a “super human being” (whatever that vague definition alludes to,) that is being worshipped by a lot people is god? Well a lot of people worshipped Elvis Presley I am sure more than a few people thought he was “super human” that make him a god? I even heard people call him god. Well he is a good entertainer with a good voice, is that all it takes to be a GOD? Why worship as a god another human that is dead now? As talented of an entertainer he was, he was definitely flawed in other ways.
Power over nature or human fortunes? Umm… tRump has a lot of that. Definitely people that worship him too. He seems pretty frail to me to be a god, seems more like an aging unhealthy man that has obvious signs of alzheimer’s and other neurological degradation (especially lately.)
So; examining the definition of god, (another word for deity,) we just hit a whole lot of hot air. There is nothing beyond talk. It is the same as me saying: “LogicFTW is god.” It is just talk with zero substance. A fantasy, a figment of human imagination a definition of an idea that leads to nowhere by its own definition. A powerful indicator that the idea always will remain just that, a human idea and nothing more.
