About Me

on the quest to know who God is
Jesus Christ is the savior of the world, he died for all of us so that we woudln't have to suffer the punishment of our sins, eternal separation and suffering in hell! i do my best to passionately learn, know, and follow TRUTH!
WHAT I BELIEVE MAKES ME WHO I AM:
i believe that truth is absolute. i believe in the law of non-contradictory and self-defeating situations. i believe in the law of causality but also in the infinite, thus not needing a cause because the infinite is not an effect. i am rational and i believe in the supranatural/supernatural, they do not necessarily contradict. i believe that empiricism is a valid theory of methods to obtain information to a certain extent but i am not a supporter of skepticism, our information is obtained through sensations but i believe in innate attributes and characteristics and i believe that they are existent information outside of what we know or possibly can know. There is a truth, if you say that there is no truth, then how can that statement be true? the support for the prior statement is flawed because its basis that there is no truth is contradicted by the question, is that a true question? if it is, then there is obviously, truth. if it is not true, then there obviously is truth. Imannuel Kant stated that by Cosmology (the study of the cosmos/the universe), Teleology (the study of design and purpose), and Ontology (the study of being)we could know God, but i believe that there is more ways than just those, such as , possibly, mathematical rationality. Evolution claims that through BILLIONS of years and trial and error, we have this perfected system, but the theory evolution is based on that systems all have the desire to progess to survive, but what gene makes caterpillers form cocoons and metamorph into butterflies? why did the first caterpillar do that? and how? by with method? i say that since there is a perfect design in our universe, that we must have a perfect DESIGNER in our universe. i don't know everything, i'm always learning, and i believe that it's important to always be learning, the truth is existant, and we would be stupid to not try to search and test for it. if your truth is that we live and die and nothing happens, i enjoyed my life and you enjoyed yours and no regrets. if my truth is true, then we both enjoyed our lives but when i die, i go to heaven, and no regrets. when you die and your truth is not hte same as mine, you go to hell and suffer for eternity... it's important to know the truth. but it's more important to follow the truth Jesus said, i am Truth" and i will follow...
