u/Hmmdoiknow Title: Does Artificial Intelligence have the potential to fulfill and bring full circle the Garden of Eden construct found in the Bible. Post: At the end of the Garden of Eden story, Adam and Eve are told to go plow the field outside of the Garden. In essence they are told that they must now go and create their own world and live in it. Super intelligent Al offers the possibility that humans can create their own world where everything is provided for them without need of work, like in the Garden of Eden. Artificial Intelligence seems to bridge and fulfill the gap between technology in the real world and the religion of the Bible. It seems to offer a way to build our own Garden of Eden with our own set of rules that appeal to us. In fact there could multiple Garden of Edens, each for its own type person, as they see fit. Does the advent of super intelligent Al fulfill and end the religion of the Bible by bringing the Bible story full circle?

u/Parking-Assistance70 • 1h As a Christian, is it OK to collect Pokémon cards? I am looking for some genuine insight as to whether or whether not it is OK for a Christian to collect Pokémon cards. I have heard arguments from both sides and I'm leaning toward collecting Pokémon is OK. Many pokemon are based on yokai, does that mean It is against God? I would love to hear your friendly arguments from either side. Thanks!

u/VEGETTOROHAN • 14h • Agnostic I have my own definition of Law of Karma. I don't believe "You reap what you sow". I believe "I become what others sow in me". If I am bad then it's the karma of others and not me.

u/VEGETTOROHAN • Agnostic Does your God punish logical people? Aren't logical people, rationalists more likely to be unlucky in life? Is this a sign that less logical and more optimistic people are lucky and succeed? Logical people are more likely to invite bad luck. Does that mean God hates logic?

u/AcademicAd6781 Isn't it paradoxical that Jesus is in heaven and loved by God in all three major religions? Jesus is essentially a connection point between the three monotheistic religions. To me, that suggests that Islam, Judaism, and Christianity ultimately believe in the same God - or at least end up in the same heaven - even though, for example, Islam says Christians and Jews go to hell, and vice versa. **Judaism:** Jesus was fully Jewish. He never claimed he wanted to start a new religion. He lived and died as a Jew, and all three religions agree on that. So, in Judaism, Jesus would be in heaven as a faithful servant of God. **Christianity:** Self-explanatory. **Islam:** Jesus (Isa) is considered a prophet sent by Allah. So he, too, is in heaven in Islam. To me, this is paradoxical. On the one hand, it shows that all three religions worship the same God but get divided and inflamed by differences in details. On the other hand, it suggests that a sincere believer - whether Christian, Muslim, or Jewish - *could* indeed make it to paradise. All three believe in the Old Testament and then get stuck on the specifics.

This is a much longer post, I just took some excerpts
u/Pandeism I study "The", that's what makes me a "The-ologian." Consider: the Greek word Theos (Oós) means "God," whilst "Lógos" (róyos) variously means "word," "reason," "account," or "study (of)." Putting them together, one would expect something like Theos-logy, or in English spelling "Theosology." But no, damnit, this is the English language, the parent tongue of all those silent letters in knight and psychic, which rhymes womb with tomb but not with bomb or comb, which plucks pieces from all over the globe and gives words new meanings as a joke, only to hold onto them thereafter with grim seriousness. And so that intuitive construction is not what we have. We have theo-ology, condensed by linguistic… And so, you see, the divine therein is "The." It is the "The," the universal "the" as in the "the" in "The Universe", "The World", "The set of what is." It is the definite article, and the study of it can thusly be smashed right up against the stem: the-ology. And so theology is secretly the study of the The.

u/painfullyimaginary What language does your God speak? Howdy (waving hand emoji). Let me start off by apologizing to anyone offended or insulted by asking or in the way I'm asking. There's many things I haven't learnt about different religions from around the world and I understand my ignorance might be a put off but I ask with the purest intention to learn. What language does God speak? Like what is your specific higher powers original language that they would use if they were just talking to themselves?

r/religion u/ali_mxun the truth & goal of all religions summarized Lovers of God know that Truth transcends religion & can be summarized by these verses in the new testament. "Jesus replied: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind! This is the first and greatest commandment. (In bold:) Surrender to God, tame the lower self & be a force for good. this is the path of all prophets, saints, gurus & awliya. the goal of all these traditions being annihilation of the ego & immersion/ realization of God. this removes all suffering & creates paradise on earth. (In regular type:) in sikhism it's called moksha & samadhi. in hinduism it's called moksha & samaadhi. in sufism it's called Fana Fi Allah/annihilation & immersion in the One. in eastern orthodoxy it's called Theosis. in catholicism it's called communion in christianity words 'kingdom of God on earth.' in new age spirtuality it's called 'enlightenment in neo platanism its called 'henosis' in Druze faith it's called 'al-'aql al-kulli/reunite with the Cosmic Mind in Bahai, the concept is there too. Quantum physics is now proving this too.

u/Illustrious_Focus_33 • 7h Trad marriage thought experiment: Let's say in 100 years from now, a trans woman such as myself, is able to reproduce as a female due to advancements in technology that are currently beyond us. She enters into a marriage with a trans man (who can also produce viable sperm) and they have a biological child together, fulfilling "God's arrangement" if you would. Is this a traditional marriage? Because it would be functionally identical to one.

r/religion u/AfternoonLanky5629 • 1h Why are Jewish subreddits so sensitive to factual data and open ended questions about historical tensions? I have been banned from two Jewish subreddits for literally pointing out historical tensions between different Jewish communities. I thought the U.S.A. had freedom of speech? What the hell is wrong with this country? No. I am not leaving out half the story. I got banned from another subreddit for explaining what the statement "Bring the hostages back to Europe means" and explaining the held belief that Ashkenazi Jews have more European Admixture than they do with Levantine a.k.a. Israelite admixture. European 60%, Israelite: 40%.

u/Exaltist • 3h • Cosmic Syntheist Question to Non-Christians Only: Why aren't you a Christian? I considered posting this in r/Christianity, but I'm afraid I'll be rage-baiting and getting in trouble for doing that. Roughly 30% to one-third of the world's population is Christian. There are hundreds of ecclesiastical traditions with thousands of denominations and millions of churches world wide. It's like going to Basket Robins and being able to choose between 31 different flavors of ice cream. And before you answer the question with: "Because I don't believe." I want you to answer this question as if you did believe.

u/CardiologistOdd8850 • 1h • Antitheist Wanna leave Judaism so bad! So for about a year and a half ive been really struggling with my faith in Judaism (I swear to god if anyone says to just pray even more I will lose it). I personally dont like it and I dont feel like it's a part of me but more like a chore im forced to do. I'm still a minor so im living with my religious parents which im scared they will disown me or ship me back to Isreal since its mostly full of Jewish people. What should I do? Accomplished-River12 • 19m Going through your post history, you sound like an insecure ex-hindu, came here for genuine advice but I'm assuming you're just karma farming. do better FairYouSee • 11m Jewish Karma farming is a particularly ironic thing for an ex-hindu to be doing.

r/religion u/redditterusername • 1h How have Sikhism & Judaism got their own emojis? The Big-4 Religions are the most-obvious ones to get emojis with each of them having over 5% of the World's population following them. Comparing this to the number of Sikhs (0.3%) & Jews (0.2%) of the World on the other hand - what has made these smaller religions so unique that they both also got their own emojis just like the big-4?

How do you connect with your god(s)? 1 upvote • 21 comments And to clearly hear God, again, vibrational resonation applies. God is at the fastest vibration there is. Unless you are relatively near that vibrational rate, good luck with clearly understanding and hearing God. This is why God has human representatives in the Earth. Having been directly human themselves, they directly know slower vibration and can attenuate their vibration to better match wavelengths with humans.
