Please discuss.




This is a pisstake of all the religion vs. athiesm threads.

Does God believe in himself? Maybe he has major self-confidence issues. It would certainly explain why a being that can do anything... doesn't.

Or do you wonder who God worships if anybody?

Probably Buddha. Buddha is pretty freakin' cool. :D

Hmm....you mean like those people who don't think that themselves are real?


Heh, anyone saw that Southpark where the kids find out the tooth fairy isn't real and Kyle starts wondering if anything is real anymore.

maybe he's one of those people that believe they are dead or they don't exist. ( i'm probably going to hell for this one lol)

Ha, this topic made me think of the Bloodhound Gang...

But would I be a good messiah with my low self esteem, if I don't believe in myself would that be blasphemy...


Sorry for the off-topicness (kinda), but I felt this needed to be said :P

There's a series of novels by Piers Anthony called the 'Incarnations of Immortality' series. Each of the first six books tells the story of one of the Incarnations(Death, Time, Fate, War, Nature and Evil). In the sixth, the Incarnation of Evil, Satan, goes to Heaven to speak to God. After some trouble getting in, he finds God and God doesn't react to anything. At all. He discovers that centuries ago, God began to ponder his own existence, and has been in a self-perpetuating loop ever since.

Pretty deep, huh?

Or perhaps, a similar question is:

"Does God believe in a higher power?"

I mean really, maybe even God wonder's where he came from...

I found the answer but it would completly ruin the fun of the thread

lmao yeah, that was an awesome episode too. that equation the dentists had on the board behind the picture of the chicken was wrong, btw.


haha does God believe that he exists, and worship himself? Well, one can hardly doubt that he doesn't believe in his own existence. I suppose narcissism would be acceptable in his case. After all, he really can't get any better than he is in the first place, being the definition of good, and if you could talk to him using words, and you told him how great he is, i'm sure he wouldn't say "oh, stop it, i'm really not that great anyway." so, logically, God couldn't be an atheist.

Dude.....that is the most stupidest question anyone has ever asked.

I'd like to ask you to clarify what you mean, otherwise that is just a really stupid question.

Of course, if you look at atheism as not believing in a superior being, I guess God would be an atheist, because there isn't one in his case.

I'm sorry but that statement is an oxymoron, since, athiest, when broken down means a=no thiest=god, and you're asking if God believes in this... It's stupid because you're asking if God believes he doesn't exist, because athiest is the belief that God doesn't exist.

If it were atheism then god wouldnt excist. So there would be no god to believe in if it were atheist. You are contradictory.

Um, do you understand the concept of jokes, or sarcasm?

I thought maybe the smilie might give a hint...

Well, online it's hard to tell, which is why the person may not have got it.

Yes. Yes it is. :)

Oh okay.....lol....i was thinking really hard about this one!

Dunno the answer to this question but I've always felt certain Christ would not be Christian - he'd think they were a bunch of morons.

It is at least possible that God is an atheist. And if He is...
mankind is made in God's image.
God is an Atheist.
Men were originally Atheists.

Perhaps the apple was religion? :eek: :eek:

No probs - sometimes it is very hard to get across in print what you can get accross verbally. Sorry if I was a little sarcastic.

Is this sort of like sixth sence?? He doesnt know that hes dead he just wonders why halie joe osmand is the only person that talks to him?? And this leads to a bigger more important question... Is god actually Bruce Willis??

Naaah, I doubt the fact God's Bruce Willis. It just doesn't sound right...
Is god an atheist?
Doubt that too. I bet it says something like, "well, I think, therefore I am" or something.

Sorry to add this as it seems this discussion has taken on the lighter side of theological debate now but if you look at it from a cartesian perspective god must have an idea of him/herself to exist, though at the same time he/she must also be in doubt and aware of his/her doubt over his/her notion of his/her existence. Though this is flawed as the only thing that you can be sure of is your existence because of your ability to doubt, and if your only basis of existence is a thought then it is a very fragile existence. With this said it seems that it is more possible for people to have a stronger belief in god than gods belief in him/herself...once again I appologise
