God in the Bible and God outside the Bible

God in the Bible means God from His own revelation about Himself and what He wants mankind to do to earn His love.

God outside the Bible means God as mankind can and does know Him to exist, by mankind's reason and intelligence.

So, we can call God in the Bble as the God of supernature, while we can call God as mankind can and does know Him to exist, by mankind's reason and intelligence, as the God of nature.

Believers in the God of supernature expect God to work miracles, like commanding the sun (earth) to stop moving, while fans of the God of nature are happy that God created nature and is in control of nature.

Now, what is natutre? Nature is what mankind encounters everyday and everywhere and everytime, namely: the regular events of say sunshine and rain and the air and the seas and mankind itself i.e. humans like you and me, and everything else not made by mankind.

After death, what is the lot of believers in the God of the Bible i.e. the God of supernature, believers will enjoy everlasting life.

What about the fans of the God of nature? They could hope to come back to life again.

Hi Imp, welcome to my thread, are you an atheist?


I am glad to read that in the social media by "the same principle" atheists are so much more intelligent."

Suppose you tell me:
1. What is that principle?
2. More intelligent than what people?
3. Give me an example of more intelligence atheists possess than other people (who?), on the issue of God existing as the creator and operator of nature - make it brief but persuasive.

@Dshhh is that the same principle by which atheists are so much more intelligent: because it says so right in social media (over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and ove . . .

@yrger No, I'm not actually an atheist. But in some ways I am a better atheist than most atheists. I understand how it works. You see, most atheist don't know what much about their own religion (or absence of).
The principle is that if you say you are truthful, or in the right, or any other kind of judgement that looks better when it is objective, it is true. I'm told that all religions do this... all religions (I think I heard the Qu'ran says this, but no one's ever produced that reference in the Bible that I've seen.) So it follows that when atheists say they are smarter than <insert believer class> (over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again on the Internet) it must be true. Atheists say so themselves.
The examples can be found in any social medium you like. It always comes down to someone who must be more intelligent because he doesn't believe in a sky daddy, an imaginary friend, an invisible wizard, or any other strawman the atheist prefers.
