Table of contents
Equally unwarranted is the assertion that personality requires the existence of something else. Individuality means nothing more than that a thing is this one thing and not another thing, and it is just as much this one thing, whether anything else exists or not. The same is true of self-consciousness. I am aware of myself as Ego, even though nothing else exist, and I have no thought of any other being; for the Ego is something absolute, not relative.
The subsistence of intellectual beings, i. This would be true , even though nothing else existed; in fact, it would then be truer than ever. Far from excluding personality God is personal in the deepest and truest meaning, because He is the most independent being, by Himself and in Himself in the most absolute sense see PERSON. In many of them we meet the infinity of God or of the First Cause, though in many cases it be only infinity in extension. Plato and Aristotle assert in substance the infinity of the Highest Being in a more adequate sense, though blended with errors and obscurities.
The Stoics had various ideas that would have led them to admit the infinity of God , had not their Pantheism stood in the way. The conceptions of Philo's Jewish-Alexandrian philosophy were much purer; the same may be said to a certain degree of the neo-Platonism of Plotinus, who was largely influenced by Philo. Plotinus originated the terse and trenchant argument: God is not limited; for what should limit Him?
V", lib. V, in "Opera omnia", Oxford, , p. Against Plotinus, however, it may be objected that true infinity is as little consistent with his doctrine of emanations as with the more or less pantheistic tendencies of the Indian philosophy. The Christian writers took their concepts of the infinity of God from the Bible ; the speculative development of these ideas , however, needed time. Augustine , being well acquainted with Platonic philosophy , recognized that whatever could be greater, could not be the First Being.
Candidus, a contemporary of Charlemagne , perceived that the limitations of all finite beings point towards a Creator, Who determines the degrees of their perfection. Abelard seems to teach that God , being superior to everything else in the reason of His existence, must also be greater in His perfections. A book, which is sometimes ascribed to Albert the Great , derives God's infinity from His pure actuality. All these reasons were collected, developed, and deepened by the Scholastics of the best period; and since then the speculative proof for the infinity of God has, in spite of some few objectors, been considered as secure.

Even Moses Mendelssohn writes: "That the necessary Being contains every perfection which it has, in the highest possible degree and without any limitations, is developed in numberless text-books, and so far nobody has brought a serious objection against it" "Gesammelte Schriften", II, Leipzig, , p. Kant's attempt to stigmatize the deduction of infinity from self-existence as a return to the ontological argument, was a failure; for our deduction starts from the actually existing God , not from mere ideas , as the ontological argument does.
Among Christians , the dogma itself has rarely been denied, but the freer tendencies of modern Protestantism in the direction of Pantheism , and the views of some champions of Modernism in the Catholic Church , are in fact, although not always in expression, opposed to the infinity of God.
Infinity of creatures The knowledge we have about the infinity of creatures leaves much to be desired. It is certain that no creature is infinite in every regard. However great it may be, it lacks the most essential perfection: self-existence, and whatever else is necessarily connected with it.
What we do
Moreover, philosophers and theologians are practically unanimous in declaring that no creature can be infinite in an essential predicate. As to the questions whether an accident e. At any rate the infinite world, of which the old Greek philosophers dreamt and the modern Materialists and Monists talk so much, lacks every proof , and, as to the infinite duration of the world, it is contradicted by the dogma of its temporal beginning. The mathematicians too occupy themselves with the infinite, both with the infinitely small and the infinitely large, in the treatises on infinite series, and infinitesimal calculus, and generally in all limit operations.
The infinitely small is represented by the sign 0, the infinitely large by a character that looks like the number "8" turned on its side. All mathematicians agree as to the method of operating with the two quantities; but there is much division amongst philosophers and philosophizing mathematicians as to their real meaning. The least subject to difficulties are perhaps the following two views.
INFINITY OF GOD
The infinite in mathematics may be take n as the potentially infinite, i. Or one may take it as the actually infinite, viz. In this view it is something which can never exist in reality, or from the possibility of whose existence we at best abstract. It is a limit which exists only as a fiction of the mind ens rationis.
Or if the infinitely small is considered as an absolute zero, but connoting different values, it is really a limit, but as far as it connotes other values, only a logical being. Thus at times Leibniz calls both the infinitely small and the infinitely large fictions of the mind mentis fictiones and compares them to imaginary quantities. About this page APA citation.
Zimmerman, O. In The Catholic Encyclopedia. New York: Robert Appleton Company. It would be better than to just not believe in anything. It is at least better to have pasion and hope than to be n the dirt with nothing to hold you up. But I think you can discover that God is real. I suggest you subscribe to my email series at www. Will they not then believe? The Quoran is a book of blasphemous lies from Satan, you people deny Christ as Saviour and need to repent of your wicked beliefs. Zoom out of prejudice and try to seek the truth, compare all main religions scriptures and see.
Your comment shows that you judge without reasoning… Is it because you were born Christian means all others are wrong?! The truth is so many Christians and other religions followers are converting to Islam, Islam is the fastest-growing religion.

Be truthful to yourself. Hey, man. Nor did any of His chosen authors. All religions are fabricated, Islam just one of the more recent ones — although all the current ones are very new in terms of tens and hundreds of thousands of years of human history. All these competing gods throughout history, and maybe more yet to come, none of them have even come close to a correct explanation of how the universe and life got here, despite people like Perry bashing their hopelessly misshapen pegs into round holes. Humanity needs to move on. The only heavens and hells are the ones we make here on earth, the only hands guiding us are our own and the only judgements are passed by ourselves.

Many of the writings are recycled stories from earlier religions, including shamanic teachings often developed under the influence of various psycho active plants. Religion is humanities early attempts to make sense of the world around them, to create social structures and to control and influence people and their behaviour.
Christianity is no more right than Islam. Both are very new religions too. Both are heavily influenced by other older religions too. So are Mohammed, Jesus and all the other profits — just men, or a mashing together of multiple historical and fantastical figures. Miracles are not the act of various gods.
They are now explained by science e. Flooding is caused by excess water and poor land management, not angry gods. Volcanic eruptions, asteroids, earthquakes etc all have natural explanations too. Sure, prayer might help ease mental health issues and stress, but only in the same way meditation and mindfulness does. Power to solve problems and improve the world resides within us, not up a set of magical invisible stairs and through a set of gates kept by a year old dead man from the vicinity of Israel, who is also reincarnated as various popes.
We went to different hospitals but they keep saying the same thing that i was the problem and my husband was perfectly okay.
One day i decided to try traditional and spiritual help, i contacted a woman who i came across on the internet called Iya Basira i ask her for help and she told me that i was the cause of me inability to bear a child. I became more confuse and worried and at this time my husband was making moves for a divorce. I told the woman everything and she decided to help me, she told me she is going to help me by praying for and given me traditional medicine to drink, that i will be blessed with a child. At the end of the day i followed her instructions, because i wanted my husband to see it as a miracle because he was a strong christian.
I did all she ask me to do and i got all the results i needed without my husband knowing and today am a mother.

Thanks to mother Iya Basira i will forever be grateful. I notice you quoted the bible and was pretty interested on what you thought about the bible, is the bible true or just some fake stuff? If there is a video or article on why the bible is fare or real ill be interested in reading it. I think the Genesis accounts can be reconciled with science if you make some very simple assumptions see my Genesis 1 article and if you understand that Genesis 2 is metanarrative, not strict historical narrative.
I suggest you read the Bible and let it speak to you. Among the most useful books are Psalms, Proverbs and John. Truth is truth. Hypotheses exist until they are proven to be false or are supplanted with better explanations.

Christianity has murdered millions of innocent people? Your wrong in your interpretation. If the dead are not raised, they go to hell. They goto hell, because their life ended up being a manifestation of negativity, the devil. We are pitied, because nobody realizes, that we must believe in, and see the positivity around us.
You can see it if you believe, but people fail to do so and continually spread the negativity. And with the generations it just keeps on growing, because nobody believes in the good. I am thrilled to have stumbled onto this website. I am absolutely an atheist. Unfortunately, most theists never really understand why they are a theist. Typically, they are either incapable, or unwilling, to explore the extremely abstract….
