Hi atheists, how do you define existence?

On the issue God exists or not, before anything else all humans must concur on what is existence.

I am theistic and I define existence as reality.

What about you atheists, how do you define existtence?

Hi LordShadowfire, I am still waiting for your reply to my reply to you, on your question about "Are we perfect."


What is the point you are making in re God exists or not?

Hi LordShadowfire, you are asking me, "Are we perfect?"

You mean are we humans perfect?

So we have to agree on (i) what is a perfect human, and (ii) do we want to be perfect.

From my part as a human, I honestly don't know what it is to be perfect, except perhaps that I am the most handsome and the most intelligent and the most healthy and the most virtuous guy in my neighborhood.

Do I want to be such a guy? No, because it will take too much time and labot from me to maintain my 'perfection'.

Anyway, hi LordShadowfire, perhaps you want to ask me
whether God can create a rock so heavy He himself cannot lift up?

Nothing quite so cliché. My follow-up question is this:

Are we perfect?

@yrger So, according to you, God is perfect, but his creations are not. How does that work? This would all be easier if you would reply to the same thread instead of pulling this weird shit where you address people at the top, but don't tag them. That's intellectually dishonest, because people don't know you're talking to them, and then you can pretend we're ignoring your brilliant arguments.
