You seem quite certain that they were wrong. Please tell me, How does one scientifically determine that our Reality itself that is responsible for our very existence and the existence of everything else is NOT God?? What is the measurement used? What is the major premise of the syllogism?
You are the only one claiming that "Reality" is responsible for anything, and that existence is God. There is no reason for anybody to respond to such nonsense.

That you would refer to the oldest and most sagacious Theistic perception as "nonsense" is very uncool.
God comports definitively with Reality (All That Is) and everything that is created and/or occurs is necessarily by and through Reality.
That's as "Godly" as it gets...and if All That Is (Reality) does not warrant the title "God"...we shouldn't even have such a word/term.
Mystic is not the only one here that perceives anything and everything as just One Thing (Reality/All That Is)...and that it is God (The Divine).
Other Religions present metaphorical and allegorical works of literary art to explain this through representative characters & stories.
What is "nonsense" is to cast aspersions upon such a venerable Theistic/Religious Concept...while on a forum for Religion & Spirituality.

Why do you think what 1.2 billion people believe is nonsense? My religion asserts god, Brhman, is pure existence. Not only Hindus, but many people, scientists, philosophers, lay people around the world have been moved by this belief and have adopted it as their spiritual path. What makes you think that you can dismiss all of them as nonsense? You can admit that you do not possess the knowledge that billions of people do and so may be mistaken.
Quote:
In Hinduism, Brahman (Sanskrit: बà¥à¤°à¤¹à¥à¤®à¤¨à¥) connotes the highest universal principle, the ultimate reality in the universe.[1][2][3] In major schools of Hindu philosophy, it is the immaterial, efficient, formal and final cause of all that exists.[2][4][5] It is the pervasive, infinite, eternal truth, consciousness and bliss which does not change, yet is the cause of all changes.[1][3][6] Brahman as a metaphysical concept refers to the single binding unity behind diversity in all that exists in the universe.

many many paths of religion and spirituality recognize that everything in existence is created by divinity, that all of existence is sustained by divinity, that all of existence contains divinity, and that all of existence is dependent upon divinity, contingent upon divinity , a byproduct of divinity, a physical manifestation and outpicturing of divinity.
you are seriously calling widely held religious beliefs to be "nonsense" ? On a forum that is specifically for discussing paths of religion and spirituality? that may be your personal opinion, and it clearly demonstrates an ignorance (lack of knowledge and information) of the content of widely held beliefs and teachings of world religions and paths of spirituality over tens of thousands of years. But no single individual person posting can speak for all readers and say that "there is no reason for anybody to respond."

Is insulting a religion that billions of people follow as nonsense acceptable per the guidelines? Maybe a moderator would respond.

As vexatious as it is...that is a Moderator of the board, posting as a Member.
Vexatious, though probative. But it is something many already knew, and have known for a long time.
Most unfortunate.
Are you trying to say, that person/thing is not synonymous to being/entity? Are you playing dumb? Or what? Yeah, and it was considered wrong by those who had no idea why they were wrong, b/c the instrument for separating the right way to think from wrong way to think (namely logic) was not available for them yet. It is sure as <<bleep>> available to you, but you just refuse to use it, stubbornly insisting on sticking to a caveman mentality. Not smart.
but the post above is not logical. the post above does not demonstrate logic. the post above lacks logic. there is nothing logical or rational about using profanity and insults towards those expressing views you may disagree with. there is nothing logical about labeling views different from your own as "the wrong way to think."
