(n.) the genderless eternal essence of the undefined; the force by which all life, and all existence, depends; and in
human understanding, the equivalent of "
love." Nearly impossible to describe, it is something that must be truly experienced to be understood. Much like attempting to describe the complex and wondrous tastes of a multi-course meal to someone who has
never eaten before.
Person 1: God doesn't exist.
Person 2: I know, he IS existence.
Person 1: No, what I
mean is that there is no such
thing as god.
Person 2: How do you know?
Person 1: Because there is no proof he exists.
Person 2: Well, there'
s no proof he doesn't exist either.
Person 1: Of course not, you can't proove negative existence. You can't have evidence that something isn't out there, because only real things leave evidence.
Person 2: Is there a
hippo in your living room?
Person 1: . . . huh?
Person 2: Is there a
hippo in your living room?
Person 1: . . . no. Why?
Person 2: Are you sure?
Person 1: Yes.
Person 2: How can you be sure?
Person 1: Because I can look at my living room and see that there is no
hippo there.
Person 2: Well, there you have it. You just prooved a negative existence.
Person 1: . . . oh my god. You're right.
Person 2: See?
Person 1: But still, there is no proof that god exists.
Person 2: There is no proof that YOU exist either.
Person 1: Of course I exist.
People can see me, hear what I say, and can tell you of the effect I've had on their lives.
Person 2: A lot of
people would say the same
thing about God.
Person 1: . . . nuh-uh.
Person 2: Yeah-huh.
