But I used to believe in a higher being. Maybe there is a higher being apart from the material world we know, but I won't call it God.
Doubting is the starting point of knowledge, this was what Descartes was keep saying.
Actually, there is a higher being for those that beieve there is one. They are TVs on a channel where there is a higher being.
Keep something in mind, you can not believe something that can not exist... you believe something because this believe is a result of a connection of your brain... the believe is associated with connections... those connections exist... they are like transistors, capacitors, condensers etc... the brain is a TV tunner. The you is just a possibility that exist, and the brain has selected this you among infinit yous...
OK! I am changing the subject... but what I am trying to say, is that God really exist for those that believe of his existance, and God really doesn't exist for those that don't believe of his existance... some channels don't include God, others do include it.
