Philosophy 201 Guidelines

Cogito ergo sum

Here in the Philosophy forum we will talk about all the "why" questions. We'll have conversations about the way in which philosophy and theology and religion interact with each other. Metaphysics, ontology, origins, truth? They're all fair game so jump right in and have some fun! But remember...play nice!

    The Lord of the Bible might not be that being; I mean, we would need another argument that the Lord of the Bible is indeed the maximally great One.

      Quite so. This is pretty much my issue with the KCA and OA. Even if granted, there are a lot more dots that need to be connected.
      I'm not here anymore.
