Dear David,

<<Let me assure you, not many folk come closer to any of the imaginary gods as a result of the existence of the AFA.>>

Thank God for that, thank you again for your great work and may God bless you and the AFA.

Yuyutsu,

I'll let you know if the AFA or I feel the blessing, whatever that is.

Warning - Do not hold your breath on this one or you may not meet she/he/it sooner than nature intended. :))

David

Only ONE thing matters regarding this discussion ..."no deities exist".

ALL of Yuyu's debating points regarding the existence of his imaginary friend are 100% negated by this one profound fact.

It is something that will NEVER be accepted by people like Yuyu. Why? Because their entire belief system is based on the belief that their imaginary friend "exists".

The most meaningful,profound and deep 3 words in this entire discussion are .... "no deities exist".

Dear DiamondPete,

No deities exist.

Existence is an illusion.

Let's unpack that a little, Yuyutsu.

>>Existence is an illusion.<<

Whose illusion?

Yours or mine?

If it is your illusion that I exist, and my illusion that you exist, then you need to define in some detail what you actually mean by "illusion" and also "existence".

Because if you don't exist except through an illusion, you have no way of forming the illusion that either you, or I, exist.

And if neither you nor I exist, it opens up immense new possibilities

For a start, it will save me a heap on groceries next week.

Yuyu .... you're being obtuse again. That's how you defend your "beliefs", time and time again on this thread. You know EXACTLY what "I" meant by the phrase "no deities exist". And you're quite entitled to "believe" in your imaginary friend (or whatever phrase or word you use to describe it), as I have told you many times on this thread.

Fact .... "no deities exist".
