Adler argues God's existence based on the existence of moral absolutes, which cannot be explained without reference to an absolute source of morality, which he identifies as God.
Okay, then how about those secular theories such as evolutionary sociology or anthropology ? Just a thought...

I think God needs a better lawyer. He'd better find it, otherwise He'II be given one ex officio.

It seems to me that Islam and Christianity and Judaism all have the same God, and He's telling them all different things. Just for fun.

Dear God, you only have two little things to do, today.

1. Make the Universe, again.

2. Give Macron a tumor.

Thanks in advance.

" Hi, Fred ! Are you still here ?? I thought you were tired trying to explain to me how you killed God. "

Nietzsche : " Excuse me ?! I must correct you, Mortimer. I merely exposed the flawed and outdated notion of a divine creator that people held on to for too long. "

Adler : " I see... But to what end ? Aren't you afraid of the moral vacuum that may be created in a world without God ? "

Nietzsche : "

Nietzsche : Mortimer, if God exists, why did He give humans the ability to reason and question His existence ?

Adler : I understand your perspective, but I still believe in the power of God to guide us.

Nietzsche: Maybe He just has a good sense of humor .

Adler : What do you mean ?

Nietzsche : He creates this vast universe, and then plunks us humans onto this tiny little planet and says " Figure it out ".

Adler : Morality is rooted in God's nature and his commands.It's not a matter of human opinion.

Nietzsche : If what is good is merely what God commands, then there is no reason to obey God except for fear of punishment.

Adler: God's nature is good because it is based on perfect love and justice. We should obey God out of love and respect for Him.

Nietzsche : Sounds like a classic case of Stockholm Syndrome to me

Adler argues that the universe must have had a beginning, and therefore a cause, which he asserts must be God. Quite debatable, though, because it is based on the premise that the universe must have had a beginning, which is not conclusive. Other theories suggest the universe has always existed and did not have a beginning. In both cases, the same mystery floats, so..all that remains is natural theology.

I don't know if God exists, but it will be better for His reputation if He didn't.

" The denial of God leads to nihilism, hedonism and despair. "

The good thing is that it doesn't lead to brain congestion. Yet.

Irena Pasvinter Indeed, some "proof".;) Rather an illustration that the same human mind that invented the G-concept could very well invent moral absolutes.


Théo d'Or Absolutely. Not to mention the G -spot too. And many other blessings.


Hachi ◇♡◇ So, risky and inmoral people are obviously not in God hands


Théo d'Or Nope. Voldemort's. ☠💀🤣
