"Maybe it is about touching something outside yourself. But maybe I comprehend something you do not?"
muhammad amer commented on Ziztur's blog post Perfection, or the lack therof
"Justin is right about it. Trouble strarts when perfecton is tried in mono-theism. Contrdiction is natural to appear when all attributes are tried on one God. In case of more than one gods it is easier. One become the destructor and other as merciful."
Mens Luxifer commented on Ziztur's blog post Perfection, or the lack therof
"The contradiction in the names of God has to do with the ancient cult of Mono-Theism. This includes Judaism, Christianity and Islam and all the sects and sub-divisions of these.
The biblical texts in some parts refer to a sadistic character who…"

"Muslims have a tradition to give their God 101 names( An effort of perfection). This effort goes so far that one names starts contridicting other. As Qhar(Punishing) contridicts Ghfar(The merciful)."

Perfection, or the lack therof
There are plenty of people in the world, whether they be Christian or not, who, while describing the various attributes of their god, describe their god as being "perfect". They say things such as this, from Omegafaith:God is perfect in grace, in wisdom, in knowledge, in beauty, in holiness, in love, in power, in righteousness, in justice, in all that He is and all that He does. There is no thought or word or deed of God that is less than the ultimate it could be.It is not that God does things…See More

"Good comments! Obviously, I think people make their own meaning in life. I also think that meaning is a little overrated - who cares if my life has meaning? Why does it matter?"
Eli commented on Ziztur's blog post Atheism and meaning
"To paraphrase a great mind... one you have sufficiently answered the "how" something works, the why usually becomes moot."

Atheism and meaning
If you're an atheist, you've heard it before. How can life have meaning and purpose if there is no god? Most people who believe in a god also believe that such god has a higher purpose of some kind. Maybe your god has a higher purpose especially for you - he specifically put you on this planet to accomplish X. Maybe he has a plan - he let you survive that horrific car accident with merely scratches because it's his plan. Maybe he is everything and everything is him - but you're still working…See More
