In G-d's image .. that is, spiritually. (experience love, sadness, joy, anger etc.)

Deflection.. From Moses to Muhammad does not include those you mention. Just stick to Moses, Aaron, David, Soloman, Jonah, Elijah, Zakariah, John the Baptist.. ..and of course, Jesus and Muhammad. :) May peace and blessing be with them. ..and my question still stands .. is this one big giant...

..so the whole lot is all based on lies and/or delusion, from start to finish? eg. from Moses to Muhammad I reckon that that is more difficult to believe, than not. Of course, it is easy to make claims .. not so easy to prove them. If one claims that our ancestors were all deluded or...

Exactly.. ..and one could ask why people of old would have made it all up, as "the pieces" all fit togther like a jigsaw puzzle. As G-d is not a physical being, that is no surprise.

Yes, all ! There's tons of it. :)

What do you mean? Are you trying to tell us that all of our historical evidence of Abraham's G-d is a giant conspiracy?

"just" ?? My experience of pain is not an illusion .. it is very real. :eek:

Not really .. faith is always open to all.

It is if you "put your head in it", and ignore anything else. :)

That is not the only evidence .. we have evidence from Judaism and Christianity also. ..and that is only to start with.. :)

That is not an answer as to "why" .. it is a non-answer.

..but it's not a "common sense conclusion". It is not based on evidence .. it's no more than an assumption. There are plenty of other explanations, so I have no reason to believe it.

Governments often try to cover up their inadequacies. There could be many reasons for that, and not the result of one politically motivated conspiracy theory. "Without evidence, some people have claimed the virus is a bioweapon accidentally or deliberately leaked from a laboratory, a population...

In August 2024 the Lancet Microbe published an editorial saying it is "simply wrong" to assert that SARS-CoV-2 is of unnatural origin, and ascribed continued interest in the unnatural origin idea to irresponsible journalism and political motivation. The editorial expressed concern that the...

Mmmm .. and Trump told us that drinking bleach would cure it, a few years ago. 😑 Naturally, he later claimed that he was being sarcastic. Almighty God knows best exactly what happened .. one shouldn't jump to conclusions. I do believe that China holds responsibility for the pandemic, but other...

..and that needs interpretation. It is dependent on measurement .. and I know that it has to be a theoretical measurement.. ..because nobody has a "tape-measure" long enough to measure that. :D

Yes .. the "stuff" of the universe.. Our disagreement is about the properties of that "stuff". You assume it is entirely physical, which conflicts with major schools of Hindu philosophy.

Yes, I used a simile .. natural law, if you will.

In Hinduism, Brahman (Sanskrit: ब्रह्मन्; IAST: Brahman) connotes the highest universal principle, the Ultimate Reality of the universe. ... In major schools of Hindu philosophy, it is the non-physical, efficient, formal and final cause of all that exists. It is the pervasive, infinite, eternal...

Mmm .. I'm not keen on this sort of thing, either. Similarly, I'm not keen on genetically modified farming. 😐
