Fascinating.
And what scientific evidence do we have about God? |
The scientific method is about disproving things so we have a narrower view of what the reality is.
Currently I believe science cannot disprove God.

science has nothing to do with god, true enough
logic does. a priori reasoning is exactly perfect for this task. if you define a being with certain attributes those then become true by definition for argument. these attributes can then be used as premises. for example:
1) God exists.
2) God is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnibenevolent.
3) An omnibenevolent being would want to prevent all evils.
4) An omniscient being knows every way in which evils can come into existence.
5) An omnipotent being has the power to prevent that evil from coming into existence.
6) A being who knows every way in which an evil can come into existence, who is able to prevent that evil from coming into existence, and who wants to do so, would prevent the existence of that evil.
7) If there exists an omnipotent, omniscient, and omnibenevolent God, then no evil exists.
8) Evil exists (logical contradiction).
this can be applied to any god concept to test for internal consistency and consistency with the observable world |
Evil is the absence of good in humans, just like cold is absence of heat
God, due to free will, does not chose to interfear with humans
Thus, evil exist only as absence of good in humans, yet it is not caused by God, nor can it can be stopped by him, as it would interfear with his plan
Thus, no contradiction |
see above, ps: don't hurt yourself
