Whether you recognize it or not,
abstract intangibles exist. While the
Truth can be discovered and verified through empirical sensory processes with
records on progress that are peer reviewed for the sake of the veracity of
claims of Truth in all matters that manifest materially, the Virtues are often
solely verifiable through expression and observation. Truth and ALL the Virtues combined are what COPE refers to as
GOD. If you are not comfortable using
the word GOD to describe all the good abstract intangibles (i.e. virtues) as
well as Truth, please tolerate that COPE and others choose to so
reference. Mark Twain got more right
than wrong. That being said, below is a
table listing abstract intangibles that may only be observed by humans when
expressed/exhibited in the material world.
If you believe those abstract intangibles exist, then COPE believes that
means you are of good faith whether you choose to call any of those abstract
intangibles God (or God's qualities) or not. Can you prove any of the following
abstract intangibles exist? If not,
would it be reasonable to deny the possibility of their existence?
1. A
SENSE OF HUMOR
2. LOVE*
3. GENEROSITY
4. TOLERANCE
5. HUMBLENESS
6. COMPASSION
7. JUSTICE
8. RESPECT
9. MERCY
For some reason, when a 10 is
added it creates a space before the word and the words don't align nicely so
COPE decided to go with 9 for that reason, but, there are way more abstract
intangibles than those listed and that's just a sampling to get you started or
keep you going. This is COPE's evidence
that atheists are either delusional or illogical. #SorryNotSorry
* 1 John 4:8: "He that loueth
not, knowith not God; for God is charite." [Wycliffe Bible]
[Translation: He that loves not, knows not God; for God is charity. (Middle English "Charite" is
defined as: "The supreme virtue of Love or Charity according to Christian
doctrine, comprising affection, devotion, benevolence, kindness, mercy,
gratitude as between God and human, and, human and human." Source: https://quod.lib.umich.edu/m/middle-english-dictionary/dictionary?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search_field=hnf&q=charite)]
OFFENSIVE OR NOT? CHRISTIAN MEANS HUMAN BEING WHEN PROPERLY TRANSLATED.
