Maybe instead of viewing your relationship with your church and it's god as a parent/child thing, it's more of an abusive spouse thing. Just keep crawling back and making excuses for them, sure.

I mean if nothing else is true it's self evident that the existential threat of eternal torture doesn't even prevent monstrous crimes from the most devout believers... Priest are loving kids all the time

Ocean Book posted:are there any other sensible reasons why a world would be intentionally created? Think of it this way. The concepts of 'creation', and 'intent', don't really apply to the actual functioning of the known universe. People live finite lives, and can't conceptualize past that, so they put these contained notions on the surrounding universe, because that relates to the duration of human life, and other life on earth as we know it too. Try to suggest to a person that perhaps we don't know and we can't say we know right now, and most people will go so poo poo-and-fuckless horrified by that idea that they will band together, shriek heresy, and kill you over it, and burn anything you've ever written to try and erase your mark and impression from history.

Actually telling people that god is beyond their understanding and that they should stop asking questions and just go along with what they're told is one of the key points that religions like to make, and one of the things they'll eagerly burn you at the stake for disagreeing with.

Jain texts reject the idea of a creator, ruler or destroyer god and postulate an eternal universe. However, Jainism believes in the world of gods and hell beings who are born, and who die to be reborn like living beings in the earthly realm of existence. Those souls who live in the body of a god do so because of their positive karma. They have a metamorphic body, that is they are believed in Jain thought to be able to change their body at will. The gods live a life of happiness, fun and frolic, whose wishes are automatically fulfilled. They also possess a more transcendent knowledge about material things and can anticipate events in the human realms. However, once their past karmic merit is exhausted, the souls leave the "god body" and are reborn again as humans, animals or other beings. Three dots on top = three jewels mentioned in ancient texts = correct faith, correct understanding, and correct conduct. Four arms = four realms of existence in which rebirth occurs according to Jainism: humans, heavenly beings, hellish beings and non-humans (plants and animals).
