Date: February 22nd, 2018 4:53 PM Author: zippy rehab I have to say, there are some even on boart who are fucking brilliant thinkers--the best out there--and they are evidently LARPing as Christian in some fashion.
Which is why its intriguing. I don't know how you get to the angels on the head of a pin stuff before you get to support for the existence of a god, and the Christian god at that. |
|
Date: February 22nd, 2018 4:53 PM Author: stimulating elite cruise ship "What are the high IQ approaches to religious belief? Genuinely curious."
As far as I can tell, it mostly boils down to treating religious texts as metaphors that encode the truths of evolutionary psychology. |
|
Date: February 22nd, 2018 4:55 PM Author: zippy rehab Well that's what the hi iq Christians are sort of forced into doing by virtue of some perhaps unrealized tension between their professed Christianity and their intellect/ training ... but I don't know that that is particularly helpful.

|
Date: February 22nd, 2018 4:54 PM Author: contagious cream gunner whorehouse i was thinking about various approaches that incorporate things like theistic evolution, acceptance that some parts of the bible are not literally true, acknowledgement that Christians have done some pretty bad things in the past, etc. especially those which don't go to the opposite extreme of embracing progressivism wholeheartedly without admitting how much of a change this is from previous Christian belief.

Date: February 22nd, 2018 5:00 PM Author: contagious cream gunner whorehouse acceptance that the Bible is not all literally true dates back to St. Augustine if not before. it was a relatively recent development (last ~200 years) to try to counteract the influence of liberalism by denying it outright.

Can you be a Catholic and deny, say, Virgin birth or Jesus' resurrection?
Can you be a Christian and deny the resurrection?
|
|
Date: February 22nd, 2018 5:06 PM Author: contagious cream gunner whorehouse i think the answer is "no" but you can find people who disagree or at least equivocate about things like whether you have to believe the Resurrection really happened or whether it might have just seemed to happen in the minds of the Apostles (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3900758&forum_id=2#35463374) |
|
Date: February 22nd, 2018 5:15 PM Author: zippy rehab I think there is some room for equivocation also.
But --the difficulty that I have--is there are at least a handful of definitional beliefs you have to have to be a Christian--not least of which is that there is a God --not a sim maker or anything like that--but an actual god who seems to correlate in some respect with the described god of the new testament.
It seems to me that this has to be demonstrated as Probable before any other musings or analysis or critical thought even matters on the subject. And I just don't see how this has been done. There's some circular self-referential posturing and assertions about the need for "faith" in lieu of evidence, but that's ... a whole other gloss. |

The reverse is true. The most devoutly Christian era was a literal Dark Age. The more knowledge that is on hand, the more civilization there is. Now if you dislike civilization and prefer Christianity, fine, but that is just a matter of personal pathology. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3900758&forum_id=2#35463308) |
|
Date: February 22nd, 2018 5:06 PM Author: exciting dilemma legal warrant It's a structure not a content argument. The idea would be that 2000 years ago pace of change, connection to nature and societal development were all in the sweet spot to produce a properly balanced existential system, and that contemporary society is too humanistic and dominated by technology to have access to timeless truths about our relationship to the nonphysical.
The benefit of being where we are now is that we can refine the balanced system to get ride of knowledge claims that were overreaching but hold on to the existential/metaphysical stuff that our humanistic age is too stifled to produce. |

Date: February 22nd, 2018 5:11 PM Author: Pearly native masturbator lol, well I don't share your optimism. Human nature is what it is.

Date: February 22nd, 2018 9:30 PM Author: Unholy fluffy deer antler you're probably thinking of things and thinking of "reality" in very limited, very narrow epistemic terms. a lot of the more complex philosophy of religion deals with a different set of epistemic premises. to draw an analogy, let's say that "reality" has aspects of a simulation or a psuedo-simulation. in that case, what "is" is a programmable function, and there are systems in which the behavior of a "character" actually helps program the simulation (genetic algorithms, etc.).
so in that sense, a religious "belief" can be seen not as an attempt to stake a claim to a "truth" in a fixed epistemic universe (which is probably the level at which your epistemic thinking is focused), but rather, an attempt to bring the self into alignment with a NEW reality; an emergent reality which is produced IN CONCORDANCE with the belief.
these are massive oversimplifications, but you can see how this sort of thinking is a lot more complex than most critics of religion would realize. |
