Pandeism

This is an overview of the theological theory of pandeism, a combination of pantheism and deism concluding that the Deus (i.e. "God") became the Universe in order to experience it.

i really wish you can have an argument with one of my philosopher friends who is christian because im really having an inner philosophical war between christianity and pandeism and both of you are so convincing

@metallica04100 Always glad to discuss in some forum, or through the vids!!

If the deus became the universe then the universe never began to exist. As for patheism the universe is everything it has no beginning. Also this deus this being if it was the all then it could not be conscious because their would be nothing to be conscious of - by definition.

[PanDeism]

@cartoonhead5 I believe this is a category error akin to claiming that if a young man becomes an old man, then this 'becoming' means the man was never either young OR old, or indeed did not even exist. But experience teaches that things do 'become' and that things which never were do come into being -- but, additionally, even before our Universe, consciousness could yet address the pure forms of mathematics, which ought to exist even aside from existence itself.

Nonsense! And how, pray tell, did these "emotions" come about? From what does their content derive, if not the G-dhead?

[PanDeism]

@lourak I'm not sure what angle you're coming from here? Are you an atheist complaining that the motive force is unnecessary? Or are you a theist complaining that Pandeism accounts for too much, and shuts out the need for excessive assumptions? For if we are all part of our Creator (which is our Universe) then naturally all content of all things derives from it, even if it is not immediately conscious -- for it possesses that power, beyond that of the theistic deity models.

[PanDeism]

@kresslack There are, I confess, many models of pandeism stemming from rational examination of the nature of our Universe -- this simply happens to be the one which I find to most logically and fully account for the proof provided.

I am a pandeist but I dont like the idea of saying that Deus "stepped out" after creation. because, one cannot say how things really happened back then, next is about god wanting to experience our feelings. what if he doesn't really give a fcuk? I do not believe that the universe is god but I THINK the universe is the god. even if he isn't the deus i don't care, because he gave me and everything around me life so my pandeism is just a thank you for the universe. so im treating him a god.

@IBOUGHTYAMOM Humans tend to think of themselves as being close to God, even as they describe God in utterly ineffable terms.... did Casanova like to be worshiped by bacteria? We are comparing ourselves here to an entity powerful enough and intelligent enough to set forth an entire Universe of hundreds of billions of galaxies each filled with hundreds of billions of stars, the smallest of which could swallow hundreds of our planet Earth....

y would god not wanted to be worshipped by inferior beings, if casanova liked that maybe a god would too
