He said “just because humans have the capacity to believe in God doesn’t mean there isn’t one”
There is evidence that the ability/propensity to believe in God is an inborn trait. Part of the brain exists for the purpose of believing. This is why you see people who reject Christianity then turn to all kinds of crazy beliefs--new age mysticism, paganism, Rastafarianism, scientology, etc.
You have to wonder why the desire to believe in God (or something greater than self) is inborn. Could it be God's way to ensure faith? Or is there some other reason for it?
Wow is that deep. What could be the other reason.
I don’t think fear of death is it.
Even when I didn’t believe very much, i didn’t fear death. I wouldn’t know I was dead so why would i be afraid?
And just because science “thinks” they found a way to shut off the part of the brain that makes you believe doesn’t prove there’s not a God. It might prove moreso there IS a God.
There’s probably a way to shut down the part of the brain that tells you you’re hungry. Doesn’t mean there’s not hunger. You just shut off a part of God’s great machinery.
I dont smoke pot but this would probably be a great discussion to have after smoking lol
