About Me

Robert Robert veiws Christianity as an enemy of all humanity. He holds philosophical positions from neo-objectivism and metaphysical naturalism. Consequently, Robert identifies himself as a metaphysical naturalist and a neo-objectivist. Robert is 100% certain invisible magic beings and Universals are in principle impossible. Robert is a freethinker who will consider almostanything. He supports total separation of church and state. Robert is a fan of The Infidelguy and Dr. Robert M. Price podcasts.

To believe that a theistic creator deity exists and is responsible for reality, one must think the deity a primordial, immaterial, non-spatial, consciousness that wished reality to instantiate. Further, a theism/creationismbeliever must believe their deity was in some timeless fashion akin to "before" existence alone in a timeless, non-spatial, void without anything or any knowledge, alone as a consciousness, conscious of nothing oronly itself. But this is categorically impossible, for to be conscious is to be aware of reality, and meta-consciousness must necessarily rest upon a foundation of awareness. That consciousness is awareness of realityis indisputable. Without reality there can be no awareness; without awareness there can be no consciousness. Consequently, there could not have been a primordial consciousness responsible for causing reality toobtain. It may be objected that when sleeping, consciousness is not aware of reality yet still exists. Thought of as disembodied and immaterial, any primordial consciousness would be incapable of biological functionssuch as sleep. Thus the sleep objection has no merit, and truth remains standing. Without any valid or sound concept of "creator", all theistic or deistic religions crumble to incoherent nonsense. It is impossible tovalidly attribute responsibility for existence to a creator-ruling-primordial-consciousness.
