Hi all members of similarworlds.com.
I Yrger theist am telling you that I have investigated the issue God exists or not.
And I have reached the following findings based on reason and intelligence:
1. God and existence are identical.
2. God is permanent i.e. eternal.
3. God is self-existent i.e. not dependent on anything at all for His existence.
4. There are two kinds of existence: (a) Self-existence which is the existence of God, (b) depedent existence which is everything that is not God.
5. Dependent existence owes its existence to the existence of God, i.e. all instances of dependent existence come about from the creation act of God.
4. God is the medium existence in which all other instances of existence survive in.
5. Summing up: God is the permanent i.e. eternal self-existent reality creator and operator of everything that is not God Himself.
I theist Yrger state in num 1 that "God and existence are identical."
How do I explain that God and existence are identical?
Like this:
1. In the situation in which there were no universe and no mankind existing yet, there is already existence.
2. Why is there aleady existence?
3. Simple: because if there was no existence then nothingness is the default status of reality, and that means no universe and no mankind and it is all emptiness, so that we would not be in similarworlds.com, as there also would be no similarworlds.com.
4. As there are now the universe and us mankind and us and the universe have a beginning, that both implicate that there is the default status of existence which is reality, and there is reality which is the default status of existence.
5. This primordial default status of reality/existence is eternal and self-existent, and it is the cause of everything that is not self-existent.
6. We now call this primordial reality/existence, God - the creator cause of everything that is not God Himself.
7. There! That explains why God and existence/reality are identical.
