That attempted diversion did not work and now we get to the real issue:
No diversion necessary. You posted something you claimed was the Nicene Creed when in fact it wasn't.
Get your facts straight.
And if you're going to quote me....quote me correctly.
As a general rule I do not subscribe to Creeds...especially those modified by the Roman Catholic Church.
Creeds are no necessary for salvation.
The issue however, remains, that verga has posted something in #160 that says: (bolded emphasis mine)
When God came into existence there was nothing else all was void. His first thought must have been self awareness. The only possible outcome of an omnipotent being becoming self aware would be for that awareness to be a mirrored reflection or that omnipotent perfection.
Perhaps you need to visit with verga and discuss the eternal existence of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
I posted (and linked) the Nicene Creed. Arguing the point is akin to holding no one really reads or posts the Bible on the RF, which is a spurious argument. And if you're going to quote me....quote me correctly.
" As a general rule I do not subscribe to Creeds... "
That is a telling summary, and expresses the core issue in this thread.
