Well, it’s not that I believe in a Posthuman God—but I do believe in a past eternal universe (multiverse, Existence,..).
“Believing” just in that is IMO a rational belief (until proven otherwise, of course).
Past eternity neccesarily leads to a kind of modal realism—all possible worlds are (or have been) real worlds.
If there is a possible world that allows for a God (to evolve) - then it is neccesarily true.
So the only guestion left is “is there a possible universe where God (-like entity) can evolve”?
That’s complicated—but I noted one oversimplified idea that “might” show such a possibility.
i’d like to discuss this in more detail.
Hello.
I’ve only been checking this site for a short while and after reading all these interesting thoughts I posted something myself.
I’m interested in objective, rational thoughts about the ultimate reality of our existence (and Existence itself) and coming from a religious family—I also try to rationalize the notions I have about God.
I see that modal realism and Plantingas ontological argument don’t go down well in here and I concur—by themselves they are underwhelmingly weak.
But what if You combine these two views, based one assumption alone—that Existence (whatever exactly it entails) has to be past eternal.
It’s not an irrational belief—it’s even possible by some theories. I posted something in that line (shouldn’t be hard to find—there aren’t many posts about God here) and I would very much appreciate any valid comments.
It’s a simple theory, but I would very much appreciate some feedback. I have no idea if I’m talking rubbish or if it does make for a coherent logic.
Thanks in advance.
