The reason why Christianity seems so unrealistic and naive

  1. correct.

    if IT brought itself into existence, and clearly 77says it did, then does it have the power to take itself out?

    There's a wide spectrum between powerless and powerful. Which makes your answer vague to say the least.

  3. Since the greatest power is not limited by time or space, the greatest power can undo itself and not undo itself simultaneously.

    Can H20 appear as a gas, a liquid, and a solid simultaneously?

    How can something simultaneously be in three different states?

    Is there anywhere in the universe where you won't find the universe?

    You, like most atheists are stuck in two dimensional thinking, flat earth stuff...very limited.

  4. There is an infinite spectrum between points on a line...what to say of powerless and powerful?

    More limited thinking from the limited...

  5. since you continue to group all disbelievers into one group are all theists enlightened?

  6. They are enlightened as to an awareness of their own limits...

  7. LOL. so are atheists. actually the atheist is more aware and accepting of his limitation.

    you admit to YOUR limitation in understanding the limitless?

    Not limited by time or space... Ok, can't argue that as that would be a prerequisite for being the greatest power.

    But undo itself and not undue itself doesn't make sense on any level. Not even philosophical. It's not even paradoxical.

    Granted, you're allowed to make stuff up with the use of your imagination. But like how you want atheists to realize their limits, it's time you realize the functional limits of your own imagination.

    One molecule cannot. So unless you are postulating many gods as part of a totality which makes up altogether one god, it would make no sense.

    Sorry if we admit that our imagination is just that, our imagination. Imagination is a great and wonderful thing. But a mature mind knows that reality and imagination to two mutually exclusive things until what was imagined is made manifest.

    Bingo. Though if I'm understanding her line of thinking, faith combined with an very active imagination overcomes the barrier that supposedly one would run into by not activating these two other faculties.

  10. Really? Atheists don't think they are God?
