It might be or might not. It is very subjective.
One thing for sure: nature IS.
It doesn't care if you think anything.
It doesn't plan.
And it doesn't play favorites.
Time marches forward and things are, then they don't, then something else becomes of them and they are afterwards but sometimes nothing needs to come out of it either.
Tho I am not sure about the time part.
๐ Yes, exactly, but it also wasn't.
The question is confusing, it doesn't imply god has a personality. Plucked out of context to see if anyone is about it. In its time, it was controversial for its atheism. Now it sounds completely different to people. I hope I can be forgiven for my deceitful ways
Who says nature wasn't?
Who say there is a wasn't for nature and it is not in its nature to be or not?
I was lying again, I did warn this time tho. Nature is the infinite uncreated which precedes stuff. Does that qualify as godhood to you?
Gods are created by humans, therefore nature isn't god.
How can we call something god that exist and unexist at the same time? How can be a non sentiment non-being be a god?
Not a god like Zeus. I'll just do a proper write up on it when I finish a few more books. Was looking for study buddies ^^
Zeus is exactly just like the other gods: Jupiter, Ra, Krishna, Anaterasu, Enkidu, Coyote and Jesus - or even the 'fictional ones' like Cthulhu.
If it was written by a human in a human language that's a human construct.
If god exists it would be written in a gods penmanship and we would not be able to read it. Because the ink would be galaxies on a tapestry of incomphensive amount of space and time. Who knows maybe they are still signing their names after creating everything for a kindergarten homework assignment.
We are all students in this life ;)
