God exists because you say he does??? :beat:
THAT'S funny.
Ok, I'll use a basic "greater-than/less-than" illustration, and if you don't understand it after this, well, we're in a lot of trouble.
Reality > Imaginary
So
Things in Reality > Things in Imaginary
"god", "snoof", "puzz" whatever you want to call it, is defined as a concept as, "that than which no greater can be concieved". Meaning, we as humans cannot concieve (meaning create or imagine) anything greater than "god", "snoof", "puzz", etc. "God" is simply the name assigned to the concept in the Christian tradition, "allah", "tao", or "lamalamadingdong" are all names that could be assigned to this concept as well.
Now, we know that this concept, which we'll call "x" exists in the imaginary, since we are able to comprehend it. Things in reality are greater than those in the imaginary, as noted by the above illustration, so all things in reality are better than all things in the imaginary.
"X" however denotes a concept than which no greater can be concieved. If reality trumps imaginary, then "x" cannot exist at all without also existing in the reality. We know "x" exists in the imaginary, and so it must, be its very definition and nature exist in reality. Otherwise, the concept could not exist in the imaginary, which it clearly does.
You assume that "x" must be a "god" in the Christian tradition, because you hold an anti-christian stance, and so you have spent a lot of time attempting to deny the concept of "x". "X" or "god" simply denotes a being, whether it be involved in our lives or not, than which no greater can be concieved. Taoists like myself for example contend that a force binds all organisms together, and this force is known as "tao". It doesn't answer prayers or send us messiahs, but it does exist, and logic proves that it exists.
