@Leo Gura He also argues that spacetime is not fundamental reality and that neurons don't even exist when they are not perceived. I think he is going somewhere.. I don't know if such a fundamental reality actually exists though... Ahahaha it's kinda unrelated but the scientist i dislike the most is Lawrence Krauss. He seems to me like the most arrogant scientist on the internet and is very fundamentalist about his positions. Maybe i am projecting that arrogance though.

Why do you call 'him' a madman?

@Leo Gura Thank you for replying. So that means that there is no foundation for morality? I don't understand him sometimes (William Lane Craig). Overall his arguments are pretty good but i believe he is wrong. He also says: "Muslims worship a God that doesn't exist. There is no such person as Allah as described in the Koran" Well i find that to be very twisted. He denies muslims their God but doesn't do the same to Christians... It just baffles me that someone can be so good and intelligent with some arguements but fail at others.. It leads to confusion for me. Makes me doubt myself also, if understood what he said properly etc.

@Leo Gura I didn't like his argument with the baby. One last thing if you can reply. He claimed that "For something to be significant it has to make a change. And on naturalism the choices of the entire human race are ultimately inconsequential. It doesn't matter. It's insignicant and that seems to be virtually undeniable on atheism" Then he continues: '' In the absence of God there isn't any objective foundation for the affirmation of objective moral values and duties. These are simply illusions and therefore you can't rescue signifance." Do you agree with what he says? He begins at 8:42 of the video

@Leo Gura He also believes that objective moral values exist. Which i disagree. He has some great arguments but other times i don't understand him.. If you watch this video you'll understand.

@Johnny5 God seems like "he" doesn't care what happens to him one way or another. This is scary for my lil weak ego. But on the other hand i see the intelligence in reality and that makes me hopefull that all things are happening for the highest good of the cosmos...

@Nahm Good explanation.

@electroBeam Because i am fearful that God doesn't care about us . I am fearful of an indifferent , cold-hearted universe..

@peachboy I like your explanation. I am facing an existential terror to be honest because i don't really know God and i am fearful of the magnitude of God.. I wish i was in a God state right now and have all the answers. But i am in a limited human form, in a weird, highly intelligent and brutal universe & i don't really know what's going on... I just hope God has good plans for all of his creation.

@Mafortu I love this analogy

I am terrified of God's Love. I had some insights yesterday that were profound and terrifying. I got a glimpse into what Love is. And now i finally understand why Leo calls it Love but still i don't want to accept it. Also it hit me that awakening is much more hardcore and radical that i ever imagined. It is not what i expected it to be.... I don't want to accept that death is Love.

@danton Thank you for the advice man!

@Meta-Man Yes.. Now it seems obvious to me that Surrender is the only thing that you can do..

@Nahm Thanks for the tough love .

@Gesundheit What do you mean?

@Gesundheit I am terrified of experiencing "bad" stuff like torture, suffering, illness, death etc. I am terrified of having no control over these things.

When i imagine God, i think of "someone" who has infinite power and can do whatever it wants.. Leo also claims that God has infinite free will. I don't know what that means though.. So my question is: Does God Have any Control ? Or is God somehow forced to be the way it is...? Also when i refer to God i mean All of Reality, not some separate Being in the clouds somewhere. And If God has no control , then how does Reality runs itself?

@Gesundheit Why does control apply only to limited environments? Why couldn't an Unlimited Being have control?

@ivankiss What do you mean that God is free of all control? How the Universe/God is running itself without any control?

@Consept No because of so many unknown variables that i don't control.. But if God exists then he must have created those variables so i assume God has control.

If God exists and he is all loving and powerful then why does "he" allow so much suffering, pain and misery in the world? What kind of God is this? If you just answer love , please elaborate .

Leo, it seems to me that you are contradicting on a lot of topics. For example you have said that if you became awoke then you could end suffering and pain because it is all imaginary. Something along these lines. Then on your health blog video, you said the opposite. That even if you are awoke, you still suffer. Which is the case?

@Enlightenment I want permanent Nirvana. If it exists.

@Nahm I don't really know but i supposes yes..

@Nahm Well , it still bothers me that i have to experience pain & suffering...
