Everything in this universe needs a cause, so this universe needs a cause, hence, the higher power.
But doesn't this higher power need a cause
Not necessarily, if the Higher Power is unbound by the laws of logic, it could be without cause. Our universe works under the basic laws of logic, and as such, it is unlikely that it can be without cause.
So, a higher power (most likely) exists.
Yeah this is an old opinion of mine. I don't support it anymore, as the principle only works when such an entity is currently being demonstrated to exist, not when it's uncertain. At best, this is supposed to be somehow coherant, while still lacking proof regardless of a lack of plotholes.
ReplyDeleteI remember being an atheist at this time but given the apparent evidence, I wasn't. I was deconverting from Christianity, but it was big so i guess i was looking for some type of compromise like Ietsism or deism. I even went through a Satanist phase in college, and finally just calming down and becoming an atheist in 2022 or so. Now my sister is picking up crystals since last Thanksgiving.
