90. THREE AGNOSTIC CLAIMS TO PROVE GOD’S EXISTENCE, OR NOT

Three agnostic claims to prove or not God's existence

In contrast to atheism, which denies the existence of GOD, agnosticism claims that it is not known whether GOD exists or not. This stance can be divided into three different claims:

A. “It is impossible, in essence, to know whether GOD exists or not” (that is, no person can know).

B. “It is not possible at the moment to know whether GOD exists or not” (that is, at the moment there is not enough data, but maybe one day we will be able to know).

C. “I do not know if GOD exists or not” (fundamentally just an individual’s personal expression).

Note that, contrary to the three claims of atheism (presented in the previous section), there is no ontological claim here. After all, this is exactly the essence of agnosticism, that it does not make a positive or negative claim in relation to the existence of GOD.  

All that is claimed is a person’s essential, possible, or personal lack of knowledge on this subject. As such, agnosticism is a much more modest and plausible position than atheism, which emphatically claims the non-existence of GOD.

YOUR SOUL NEEDS SPIRITUALITY BUT YOU ONLY TRUST REALITY & FACTS

In the spiritual world reside the forces that operate our lives in daily reality. Get to know them, because your happiness depends on them.

While we are selfish creatures with survival mechanisms and animal instincts to achieve more than we need, we’re also wired (DNA & neurotheology) for spirituality and to live for the greater good, for the higher self. For that reason, we are wired to protect our spouse, our family, our country, and be connected to a higher spirituality we call GOD (whatever it is).

We seek to connect to the highest authority which is above human sensual perception. We seek a GOD to be our ultimate guide. Not the GOD that the religions created for us with endless restrictions and imaginary hell and heaven, but the true real GOD.

This book sums up thousands of years and debates to one practical conclusion: is it good for humans to have and believe in (a) GOD or not.

While emerging in the debate, keep an open mind and ignore any religious misconception of who GOD really is. You are here because you care to know if there is a higher authority and if your life will be more fulfilled with GOD in it. You want to know if spirituality is good for you.

WHEN DO YOU FEEL SPIRITUALITY?

The spirit is invisible, but it is revealed in every phenomenon in life that means oneness. It is revealed the moment you look into a person’s eyes and discover that you both feel the same. Spirituality is revealed as soon as you do something that makes others a caravan of joy. It is revealed the moment someone refers to you and you refer to him, and you are both aware of each other’s existence. As a Roman poet so beautifully put it: “Outside all the notions of good and evil there is a field. Will you meet me there?”

Socrates was said to have not come from Athens, but from the world. You and I are two aspects of one reality, united and all-embracing. In unity no differences are eliminated. For things to unite, they do not have to lose their individual identities.  In unity only the separation between them is abolished, which is the difference in value and importance. Then it turns out that everything is one thing.
