:lol:

In what way is "God" a communist? That is, what have you based this conclusion on?

And, furthermore, before that, I think we'd need to first establish that there is a "God". Do you have evidence of his existence?

Assuming there is a god (which there isn't), he certainly wouldn't be a communist, unless he was powerless to do anything about the current situation.

Also, if there is a God, then he's bound to extract surplus value from the folks in Heaven; which makes him unlikely to support revolutionary change. Personally, the Devil's closer to communism in my opinion. After all, he seems like a social libertarian....he certainly accepts those who break Christian morality. <_<

i came to that conclusion and it makes sense does it not? obviously im talking about the real god not the eveangelical or disney god thats been forced down our necks or the god that see women as just a womb thats imperialist nonsense

But aren't you speaking about 'Jahweh', the so-called Judeo-Christian god? I have noticed his followers often refer to him as 'God' with a capitalised G like you did in the topic title.

Or, wait, are you perhaps one of those 'I have my own God' fellows?

Well of course he has. We just have to be patient, a communist would never assert in a statement that something exists, if he didn't have solid proof. deadlyseven is most likely going to reveal the evidence of 'God''s existence in his next post! :D

To begin with, "god" is a completely subjective word. It is just an expression of one's beliefs. In one person's point of view, god may very well be a communist. From a conservative's point of view, god is something very different. In the view of the atheists, god is no god. Stop being so hard on people expressing themselves.

So, yes, God is a communist.

So you're admitting that god doesn't exist and is only a figure of the imagination?

I don't understand why theists insist that everyone have a master. A lack of god is not a god.

Technically, yes. God is simply a way of expressing yourself. And I'm not saying I belive everyone has a master. I am simply saying that is what an atheist believes, and that is how he expresses it.

Gawd, I feel like I'm back at university, people on every side throwing up inane philosophical arguments...

Can we talk about football or something?

If God is such a communist, then why does he allow football games to operate the way they do? I mean, there's one coach who's in charge of the whole team. If God was really a communist, he would help the football players revolt so that they could control their athletic events in a directly democratic manner, instead of allowing the coach to live off the labor of others.

And wouldn't God be opposed to the treatment of cheerleaders as unintelligent sex objects? And don't even get me started on the Dallas Cowboys :P

In the monistic religion of advaita vedanta, everything is kinda like one big commune. If you think about it.

No, thanks. I'd rather be associated with Stalin before this God character prances in and proclaims himself the first of anything.

On a side note, who the fuck cares? We care about ideas and concepts, not about the people who think these things up. "Oh, I totally love Bakunin's hair style, don't you?" Please, we aren't the MIM.

I don't see "god" as anything. According to religion, he is everything. I could really care less what people consider him to be since he has not intervened in any of our lives.

You both are just demigods, I'm the real god.

On second thought, bring me some experienced professionals. I don't have time for training.

considering god is only conceptualized in our minds, i suppose he can be whatever you want him to be.
